Movie review:

Ferris Bueller's day off:

1986 movie featuring  Matthew Broderick as Ferris Bueller, Alan Ruck as Cameron Frye and Mia Sara as Sloane Peterson.

Ferris Bueller's Day off is about Ferris, Cameron and Sloane taking the day off of school and running a complete muck. They do everything from dining at a highly respectable restaurant to dancing on a parade float. However the whole day is not all fun and games, Ferris's principal is trying to bust him for 'wagging' school. This movie is full of fun and laughs its one the whole family can enjoy.

Personal opinion: Ferris Bueller's day off is one of my favourite movies of all time, if i had to choose twenty movies to watch for the rest of my life it would defiantly be in the top five. I love all Ferris's little tricks and the way he out smarts everyone. My favoutie scene in the movie would probably have to be when he's on the parade float and the Beetles twist and shout is playing. 

I highly recommend this movie to everyone.

Movie Review:

Moulin Rouge:

2001 movie featuring Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor.

Its a movie about the passionate love between a beautiful courtesan and a penny-less writer. It shows just how true the saying ' its better to have loved and lost then to have never loved at all' is.

the story line is a stunning courtesan and very poetic writer fall in love but a duke driven by jealousy tries to split them apart and wants the courtesan all to himself. This movie is a musical there is literally another song every minute or so. Therefore if you are not a fan of musicals maybe steer away for this classic.

My opinion: I loved this movie I loved the story line and I loved the music. Its quite a full on emotional movie I cried in the end. As for the music it has a lot of the classics such as:

like a virgin - Madonna (performed by Harold and the duke)

Roxanne - the police (performed by Jose Feliciano and Christian)

The show must go on - Queen ( performed by Harold)

As well as many more classics.

I watched Moulin Rouge for the first time a few nights ago and ever since i have had the songs and movie on constant replay. I highly suggest this movie to people who like Rocky Horror Picture show and Romeo and Juliet it is a mix of the two. Don't worry though it's not shakesperian its all in English we can all understand, but the love story is a little similar.

Wes Craven.

So I thought I'd do a post about Wes Craven seeming as he is such an important person in the movie world and because he's one of my favourite writers/director/producer. So here goes.

About Wes Craven:

• father to Jonathan and Jessica Craven
• Spouse Iya Labunka
• divorced to Mimi Craven 
• also divorced to Bonnie Broecker (with two children.)
• Birth Name: Wesley Earl Craven

Known for:

• The last house on the left
• The hills have eyes
• Freddy Vs. Jason
• Scream
• Scream 2
• Scream 3
• Scream 4
• Nightmare on elm street
• Nightmare on elm street: Freddy's revenge
• Nightmare on elm street: Dream Warriors
• Nightmare on elm street: The dream master
• Nightmare on elm street: the dream child
• Nightmare on elm street: Freddy's dead
• A Wes Craven's New Nightmare

If you cannot tell by that list my favourite movies by Wes are the Nightmare on Elm Street series, Wes Craven's new nightmare and Freddy Vs. Jason as well as Scream and Scream 4. Pretty much anything with Freddy Kruger in it and the first and last Scream.

From all the classics and much loved movies Craven's re-invented horror will but him down in the history books. Craven with be right there with Stephen King in the list of horror movie icons. The name Wes Craven will never be forgotten.
