It has been said that the best things in life are worth fighting for. In the
movie Braveheart starring Mel Gibson this thought is the basis for the whole movie.
This film was based on the real life story of Scotland's rebellion from under English
rule in the thirteenth century.
William Wallace, played by Gibson, was a son of a common soldier. He
desired nothing more in life than to move back to his homeland years after his
father's death and to start a farm and a family. Wallace's plans are drastically
interrupted when the English lord of the land kills his wife in order to get to him.
Instead of making him weak, the murder of his wife prompts William to begin a
rebellion of English rule. He inspires thousands of Scotsmen to fight the English
soldiers for their freedom.
This movie is an incredible display of the ability of a country to fight against
oppression from evil. Mel Gibson does a wonderful job playing a character who
fights with passion for his country and for the memory of his wife. It is uncommon
to find a movie where the main character fights with as much feeling and emotion as
William Wallace does. He is an intelligent man and would not have fought in a war
unless it was for a meaningful cause. Before the death of his wife he is approached
by some of the villagers to fight against the English but refuses to because he doesn't
feel it is necessary.

Then throughout the movie, all of the jurors were slowly convinced that the boy was no guilty.
The plot of the movie “Blade Runner” becomes unrevealed till the end of the movie. Many assumptions about the plot and the final of the movie appear in the spectator’s mind, but not one of these assumptions lasts long. Numerous deceptions in the plot grip the interest of the audience and contribute for the continuing interest to the movie eighteen years after its creation. The main character in the movie is Deckard- the Blade Runner. He is called for a special mission after his retirement, to “air up” four replicants who have shown flaws and have killed people. There are many arguments and deceptions in the plot that reveal the possibility Deckard to be a replicant. Roy is the other leading character of the movie. He appears to be the leader of the replicants- the strongest and the smartest. Roy kills his creator Tyrell. The effect of his actions fulfils the expectation of the spectator for a ruthless machine.

In his review of the film “Saving Private Ryan”, N.Cull claims that the film presents… “a realistic depiction of the lives and deaths of G.I’s in the European theatre in World War II”. Do you agree with his assessment of the film? Argue your case.
Good Will Hunting is a film which conveys many interlocking themes and messages to its viewers. One of these nicely woven themes is placing trust in the people we care about as well as people we have only recently become acquainted with. Another message, arguably more significant than the last is finding and pursuing the potential one has and bringing meaning into our lives in any form we choose. I believe the potential and success this film demonstrates is that success, growth, and meaning in a person’s life does not always have to come in the form of advancing in a career or social status but rather in the form of overcoming hardships and developing close reciprocating relationships.
