Have you ever watched a good movie that until now you can remember every detail and the message that the movie wants to convey? What genre of movie are you usually watching? Do you like movies that tackle about political issues, inequality and curses? You know what I have 3 movies that I like the most among all movies. Before we tackle the main topic let's first explore the world of movies. Since 19th centuries, movies became a popular among people especially for those rich one during industrial revolution. One of the oldest form of watching movie is through tapes in which when you point it on the light,there's an images that moves in motion. On this generation, movies became part of our everyday life, I think most of Filipinos watching one movie per day. Watching movies has lots of benefits in our life, first of all it will make stronger bond of the family since families are coming together in one are then enjoying the movie flash on television, some people can afford to buy an account on Netflix thats why they can watch movies till night. Second, there's a lesson out of it, some movies are based on real life, specially those movies about journey of person until he or she reach success. There are also movies that pointing out about reality of life, how people live in poverty, political issues, justice inequality, and many more. Lastly, we can enhance our vocabulary, lots of movies are translated in English, even though the language used is English still there's a subtitle so that people can follow the flow of story. Here on Philippines, we are known for old movies during 1990's those movies that more on action and comedy.
Until now those movies didn't perish on heart of Filipinos. There are channels which focusing on flashing Filipino action movies and it is usually watched by our fathers at home. Sometimes we want to watch other channel but once our father sitted at sofa and holding the remote then there's a little chance that you can watched your favorite movie. On my own, I loved watching movies specially those action, fighting and horror movies. It gave me thrill everytime there's an action or a surprise attack but sometimes it makes me scared once there is a surprising scene in horror movies. I know that the killing will come but I can't help myself to terrify. There is 2 movies that stuck on my mind, those movies that made me amaze and realize something about this society, it tackled there different issues and also how our ancestors lived during old Era.
Law Abiding Citizen
This is the best movie for me, I've watched this way back 2017 and then I rewatched it again. This movie is about a man that his family was murdered and raped, he seek justice for his family but the justice system was manipulated and those killer has been proven not guilty by the judge. The man can't accept the verdict after that he lost for 10 years. After 10 years, the police got alerted due to death of many government officials, judges and polices. They suspect the man that it's all his doing that's why they arrested it. In police station, he confess to Detective that he do all those things. They want to stop him but the murder still continue. The police got alerted that the prosecutor was missing, they asked the antagonist if where the prosecutor is. He asked different kinds of food and after his wish granted, he gave the coordinates where the prosecutor buried. They look for coordinates and they found the prosecutor but no longer breathing. After that incident, the killings continue but the police can't find evidence that he do those crime because he's in prison. Not until the Detective found the underground tunnel that the antagonist made. There are lots of tunnel in different cells and that's the reason why he freely take revenge to those people that don't give justice for his family. In the end he plan to plant the bomb in City hall but the Detective knew it that's why he brought back the bomb inside the cell of antagonist them lock the cell. The antagonist hold the bracelet that her daughter rmade for him while the explosion start and fire eats the whole cell.
In this movie, I don't know what is right and what is wrong. The antagonist put the justice in his hand because the judicial system and judges didn't gave a guilty plea to those criminal that killed his family. It is the right thing to do? If everything is wrong it is bad to put the decision in your hand and punish those people that made bad things? This is the reality that this movie wants to convey, money can buy justice and justice can only prevail for those rich people that can manipulate the law.
The Platform
This movie is also one of my favorite,it's about a man that was imprisoned in a weird platform together with other prisoners. This cell is weird because there are different floors separated with height of 5 meters that's why it's impossible to go up and down on floors. Prisoners can only eat once a day, there's a platform that full of foods that exact for all prisoners. Gorong is new to this prison, his companion at that floor is an old man, after they talk the platform moves down and the old man eat vigorously like there's no tomorrow, Gorong just watched the old man spit on the platform and after that he asked the old, an why he do that, he just answered that people below will eat it anyway. Days go by Gorong also eat at platform and when they sleep at night, the old man warns him that there's a changes in floors. When he woke up he found out that he's tied by old man. Unfortunately they were on 117 floors in which there's no food on platform left for them. The old man gave 8 days to Gorong to pray that there's food in platform left for them but unfortunately there's nothing until the old man decide to eat flesh of Gorong, he's in pain and the crazy girl save him and kill the old man. That platform is endless and Gorong wants some changes, they ride on platform and gave enough food for all people but some are greedy that's why Gorong and the black guy fights back but they we're deeply injured, they reached the last floor which is floor 333, they saw a young girl at the bottom, Gorong helps the young girl go up and ride in platform.
This movie resembles the class of people in society, in movie those people at first to 20 floor are considered riches in which the food in platform resembles resources. Those riches are starting to become greedy and eat lots of food that's the reason why people below are fighting each other and killing anyone so that they can taste and eat the food. It's sad to say that this is really happening. Rich people enjoy the life while people at bottom are suffering from poverty.
