Can movies make a whole family enjoyable?

Movies of Entertainments have many positive influence to family, so children can learn a lot of things from the movies. A person who seeks a relaxing time with the family can watch comedy movies as it can be viewed by all members of the family together and this will tern in help to increase the bonding between all members of the family too.

 I surveyed "Which entertainment can a whole family enjoy?" to our class mates.

Good Movie

30 July 2013 | by jcnsoflorida (South Florida)                                            

While this is not the greatest movie ever or even the last word about (mainly) black women's hair,
it's well worth seeing, and strikes a nice balance between being entertaining and informative. Chris Rock is basically learning as he goes, and he sort of functions as a surrogate for us viewers. It's definitely an Obama-era movie: whenever it starts to get critical, it backs off a little and is careful not to offend any group. His style of questioning can be a bit cheeky but he's always engaging. The film keeps focus on the creative/fashion side, rightly so, I think. If you're up for something different, interesting but certainly not heavy, I recommend it.

Impact-ful

21 June 2010 | by razmatazern (Austin, TX)                                            

It was nice seeing how a family could completely change their lifestyle for a year and watching the progress of their journey seemed heartfelt and honest. The whole process was not just a straight up breeze in the park. It took effort and lots of adaptation. Colin and Michelle seemed real and maybe even relatable. I loved Colin's determination and will-power to do as much as he could to leave no impact. Michelle seemed to try so hard to support Colin and follow along with his intense eco-friendly ways. Some of the eco-friendly mechanisms that they used seemed crazy for any normal consumer, but it was interesting to see their quest and attempt at conquering their goal to not leave an impact. I felt that throughout the movie, there were some really insightful perspectives regarding the experiment and techniques. After watching the movie, I was about to eat dinner and started feeling really bad about cooking the noodles wrapped in plastic and using that paper napkin that I would soon throw in the trash can without a second thought. The movie definitely had an impact on me and left me thinking about my actions way after I finished watching the documentary.

        

3.Good Will Hunting                             

Will Hunting (Matt Damon) has a genius-level IQ but chooses to work as a janitor at MIT. When he solves a difficult graduate-level math problem, his talents are discovered by Professor Gerald Lambeau (Stellan Skarsgard), who decides to help the misguided youth reach his potential. When Will is arrested for attacking a police officer, Professor Lambeau makes a deal to get leniency for him if he will get treatment from therapist Sean Maguire (Robin Williams).

• Will Hunting: Matt Damon
• Sean Maguire: Robin Williams
• Chuckie Sullivan: Ben Affleck
• Skylar: Minnie Driver
• Prof. Gerald Lambeau: Stellan Skarsgard

• Director: Gus Van Sant
• Written by: Matt Damon

When I was young, I watched family film which is "GOOD WILL HUNTING". The film is about a janitor at MIT (Matt Damon) proves to be a mathematics genius, but needs help from a court-ordered therapist (Robin Williams) to find his direction in life. A mentor who teaches a talented young man to believe in himself, hone his gifts, and find direction in his life.

One of my personal favorites, the ...read morereal story is the relationship Will(Matt Damon) forms with his psychologist (Robin Williams), who helps him to understand himself as a person and not a "genius". Will learns who he is and what he needs to be happy through this relationship.

That was very impressed for me. If you haven’t seen Good Will Hunting, it is a must see and if you haven’t seen it in a few years I suggest watching it, you will be pleased again. Hope this is helpful.
