My Darling Clementine has to be one of the worst movies i have ever seen!!!! I am not trying to be mean but it is true!!
I felt that they could of done so much more!!! The acting was really bad, i thought the plot was stupid, and they had really weak and pitifull female roles. The acting had no point to it! I thought there wasn' t that much character development. You didn't really get a sense of who they are! Of course you knew the very basic stuff but not much else.
I think they shouldn't have even put female characters in this movie! There job was to stand around and look pretty. And that is not right. Good movies have strong male and female roles. Clementine and Chihuahua you can tell just based on the names that there are not going to have good parts. Clementine was atleast some what intelligent. But Chihuahua wasn't. If this movie had strong female parts then i think their could of maybe been some hope for this movie.

On the other hand, I did like the movie Once upon a time in the west. I thought that movie was very good! There was only one female lead but she was very strong. I enjoyed every minute of this movie! I like the mystery of Hermonica and Frank! The script was very well written! And the directing/ cinematography was beautifully done. I also thought the soundtrack was fantastic!!!! Everyone had their own music and you could tell who was going to be in the shot based on the music!! Each one was so completly different and great!! This soundtrack is probably one of the most creative and beautiful soundtracks out there!

Once upon a time in the west was a way better movie than My Darling Clementine!

We have just finished watching a movie called Citizen Kane. Some call this movie the best movie ever made. I think it was a very solid movie but i wouldn't call it the best movie ever made. I thought Welles did a nice job of directing the movie. I thought the beginning and ending shots were really cool. I like when we started the movie it was like we slowly entered Xanadu. It felt like we didn't belong their. And then the ending shot when were it is just like the beginning but in reverse. I thought that was very clever. It was closing the story of his life.

I would have to say one of my favorite scenes of the movie was when Kand and his wife were sitting down to breakfast. They showed time passing so well. You saw the cycle of marriage. At first you love them and then you want to be with them all the time. But as the relationship grows you don't feel that need as much. Welles did a wonderful job explaining a relationship with almost no words. That is why i love that scene so much. It is so cleverly done.

I think Orson Welles did a great job acting in the movie. When I watched the movie i wanted to hate Kane. I thought he was so mean, he left his wife and kid to be with someone else. He treated his friends very poorly. He used the public. And overall he was just not a likable guy. And yet i still had a lot of sympathy for him. I was still wanted him to succeed. Not many "bad" characters have that quality. All he wanted was to be loved. He had all the money in the world, he bought thousands of things for the people he loved. He try to buy his wifes love but in the end they both left him. Money can't buy you everything you need. Kane never fully understands that. And i think that is why we all have sympathy for him. I felt really bad for the guy.

I thought the central theme of the story was money can't buy you happiness. Kane proved it by buying everything in the world and still he wasn't happy and both of his wifes still weren't happy at all and all of them felt very alone. I felt like that was the central message of the story.

Overall i thought that Citizen Kane was a very good movie.
