I'm afraid that I'm going to have to go offline until the end of June. My IGCSE exams will be going on and I need to revise. So, unfortunately, I won't be able to watch movies and review them. I've already missed Project Almanac... Anyways, I'll be back as soon as possible!
Some of you may have noticed a new FlagCounter widget on the right. For those of you who don't know what it is, it is simply a widget that counts the number of people from each country who visited my blog. It's not working for some reason...
The first movie of 2015 for me! Trash was a gem. A bright, shining gem. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, Trash is the name of a British-Brazilian film set in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro. We follow three boys who find a wallet in the junkyards of Rio and uncover a secret that makes the streets a dangerous place be.
When Raphael and Gardo find a wallet containing a collection of items, they have no idea that their lives are going to change forever. Little do they know that the wallet belongs to an activist who the police are after. After enlisting their friend Rato for help, they find out that even the police will not help them. What follows is a fascinating journey full of action, humour and emotions through the slums of Rio.
Let me say that when I walked into the cinema, my expectations were't high. In fact, the only reason that I went to watch the movie was because I had two spare hours and nothing else to do at home. And I was impressed. The movie had everything- action, suspense, comedy and emotions. I loved it. The acting was great. Some of the best from child artists. Those three boys didn't let me down one bit. I also liked the way Brazil was portrayed. It seemed like the real Brazil, not like the Brazil you read about in books. This movie sends out a clear message. you never know what you'll find. It was a simple movie, but great all the same. A great start to 2015!
