The film San Andreas is a fantastic film that constantly has you on the edge of your seat. At the beginning of the film its very much a normal everyday life setting. The main character's of this film are Blake (Alexandra Daddario), Ollie (Art Parkinson), Ben (Hugo Johnstone-Burt), Raymond/Ray (Dwayne Johnson), Emma (Carla Gugion), Dr Lawrence Hayes (Paul Giamatti), Serena (Archie Panjabi), Daniel (Ioan Gruffudd).

 This film is not what you expect. Its an amazing film about parents trying to save their last daughter, they had two daughters but one daughter drowned when they was on a family canoe and she fell in the river and drowned.
At the beginning Ray and his team of fire and rescue save a girl from her car on the side of a cliff. Whilst Emma and Blake are at Daniel's house. The parents are on a mission to get Blake, Ben and Ollie to safety and away from danger. Scientist try to show everyone that there is going to be an earthquake but no one would listen to them. But when the first couple of little earthquakes end people begin to listen as the scientist show everyone that their is going to be on massive earthquake yet to come.
The genre of San Andreas are action, adventure and drama, with the mix of the three genres makes the film even better, and the anticipation of not knowing what's going to happen next makes the hair on the back of your neck stand.

My favourite trailer for a new film has to be Kidnap. The trailer for Kidnap is good as it made me really think about what's going to happen next. Also I like how they have put a question at the end of the trailer.
I like how they have put dramatic music over the top of a serious part of the trailer so you can tell by the music that the mum is scared and worried about what is going to happen to her son Frankie. The music really shows what genre the film is as it has dramatic and fast music. At the beginning of the trailer they use up beat, happy and a slow song at the beginning to show the characters feelings, as they are happy.

 

I also like that they have put a question at the end of the trailer. I also like how they have used a scene of the film to bring in the title, they used her swinging a pipe to dramatically make the screen black and bring the title in. The title was in large, bold and red writing to make the title stick out and so you remember it.
I like how they have put her speaking some of her lines over the top of a scene of her holding on to the car. They have also put her talking over the top of a scene, in this seen the mum is in a car chase, she is chasing the car that her son is in which makes it dramatic as you know that she will do anything to get her son back.
The genre of this film is action and thriller. The mix of the two genres make the film exciting as you don't know what is going to happen next.

My favourite kids film of all time has to be Toy Story. Toy Story is my favourite film as Jessie is an independent and brave character. From a very young age I had been trying to be what the stereotype of a girl, so dresses and pink bows. I then watched Toy Story and Jessie showed me that it doesn't matter what other people think of you as long as your happy with who you are. Jessie wasn't anything like the stereotype of a girl she was bubbly and loud, she wore trousers and a hat instead of a dress and a bow. Jessie showed me that its okay to be different.

My favourite director's are Andrew Standon and Lee Unkrich. They are my favorite because the created Finding Nemo which inspired me to go on adventures no matter how big or small i am. Also that i can do anything as long as i put my mind to it. 

My favourite genre's are crime and action because you never know what is going to happen next as it is always something new. I also like comedy because even in a bad situation in a film they can make it funny just by adding comedy for example identity thief as even though it is a bad situation they mad it funny by the connection that the two characters have with one another.

I am looking forward to seeing Kudo and The Two Strings because it is about a little boy that doesn't think that he can do something but with a bit of help he is capable of great things. 

The last film that i watched was Home. I like the film Home because it is funny and it shows that with some help you can fit in anywhere, the main character Oh isn't very popular with the others but when he lands on Earth he meets a young girl. She thinks that he is just like all of the others but she took a chance and trusted him and in the end they became really good friends as Oh helped the little girl find her mum.
