Movies

Movies
My favorite movie’s common point is lone hero. In this summer, I watched Hancock, which is never dying and very strong man movie. My favorite actor is Keanu Reeves and Will Smith. So I often watched movie they play.

I Robot
I like SF movie. This is robot and human’s relationship movie. Del Spooner is acted by Will Smith and main character in this movie. He hate robot but there are many robot around him and robots of the latest were sold instead of former type. There was unique robot in their robots. The robot had emotion and his name is Sonny. Spooner and Sonny first fight but after that, they fight another enemy in cooperation. I think robot will be like this movie so this movie may not be fiction.

Man on Fire
Man on Fire is serious and action movie. The leading actor is Denzel Washington and actress is Dakota Fanning. John W. Creasy, Denzel Washington, is a former soldier and now he was hired as bodyguard of Pita, Dakota Fanning. First he treated coldly but he gradually opened up to Pita and teaches swimming or study. One day after school, Pita was kidnapped and Creasy intend to help her.

This movie is in Mexico. Hiring bodyguard is common practice and needed to enter insurance of kidnapping in Mexico but I don’t know it so I was very amazed. It is very interesting for me to be gradually changing relationship between Creasy and Pita in this movie.
