Do the right thing was directed very well by Spike Lee with great acting by all the actors in the movie. Some things that I really enjoyed was the setting of the movie and how everybody was outside or inside trying to cool off from all the heat and tension. I also liked how Samuel Jackson's character (I would just like to say that he is in every single movie and is also a jedi) described the mood of the story once in a while. That was a very clever idea to do. But the movie seemed very predictableto me. From the first day of watching the movie, I was able to predict that either the Korean or the pizzaria would be destroyed, I just wasnt sure which one it would be. Finally, I would like to say a comment that probably everyone who saw the movie asked; did Mookey do the right thing? Just one thing I would like to figure out on my own.

Spirited Away
To be honest with everyone, I am a very big fan of anime and other Japanese movies and animations. Spirited Away is definitely my favorite anime cartoon/movie I have ever seen. The story was great and it was filled with lots of sound and visual
effects that enhanced the greatness of the movie even more. One complaint that i do have about the movie is that there was almost no intro to the movie. It starts off with the family on the road moving to their new home but there was no explanation of any of the characters. Within the first 15 minutes of the movie, the family was already in the magical world. It seemed that I was being rushed while watching it. Also, I wasn't too fond of the ending as well. It also seemed to be too short. There was no explanation of what happened to Haku near the end and when the family arrived back at the car, I believe that it would have been better if this whole story took place in one normal (human) day. But all in all, it was an excellent story with adventure and and many developing characters.

Witness
This movie has greatly acceded my expectations. Watching Harrison Ford attempting to adapt into an Amish society is a real laugh and yet quite astounding. Usually in his other films he is a rebel or an action hero. In this he cant even curse or hold a weapon because of the village he is in. It could be just me, but I think its funny. The scene to the right was one of the most beautiful and creative moments I have ever seen in any movie. How often do you see an entire town working together to accomplish one goal. When watching this, I felt lively and a feeling of togetherness. The director really did a great job with this scene and the rest of this movie.
