The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

In my opinion, I would give this film a 8 out of 10. The story starts out with The Good (also known as Blondie), and The Ugly (Tuco) scamming the system, with Blondie turning in Tuco for crimes he committed, and as Tuco was hanging, Blondie would shoot the rope and they would escape and split the money, some time along this, they find Bill Carsons, who is extremely rich, and he tells them where it is located. They then proceed to find the money.

The Great Debaters

The Great Debaters is a drama about a black debate team in the south in 1932. Shot in 2007 by Denzel Washington. Starring Denzel Washington, Denzel Whitaker and Forest Whitaker, based on a true story of a temperamental debate coach who shaped the students of a small East Texas college into a great team that gave Harvard's elite a run for their money. 

Convinced that they could make great changes if given the confidence and tools needed to do so, Tolson implores his students to take responsibility for the future while furtively attempting to protect them from his secret role as an organizer for the Southern Tenant Farmers Union. Among Tolson's promising young students is a 14-year-old prodigy named James Farmer, Jr.  James Jr. has seen the effects of racism all around him, and wants to live in a future where no one must be in fear simply because of the color of their skin. Other debaters on Tolson's team include Henry Lowe, and Samantha Brooke, the first ever female ever to join the Wiley College debate team. While most educators may not have recognized the potential of assembling such a disparate team, Tolson's unique vision truly set him apart from the pack as the team begins to experience a series of consecutive victories on their road to challenging Harvard at the National Championships.

V for Vendetta

   
     In my personal opinion, I would give V for Vendetta a 10 out of 10. I would definitely recommend this movie for anyone, because it is truly a great movie. It is about a man who defies the government, and believes that the government should be afraid of its people, not the other way around, and he extracts his revenge, as is stated in the film name "Vendetta." The man is simply known as V, you don't see his face throughout the movie, as he wears a Guy Fawkes mask, he chooses to act like Guy Fawkes as he strikes on November the fifth, Remember, Remember, the fifth of November, the Gunpowder treason and plot. I know of no reason, the Gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.

    If you don't pay attention to this film, or focus on certain parts, it will be quite confusing, as things are explained throughout this film, and if you put the pieces together, everything will come together and you will understand this film, you will understand V. I will definitely say that everyone should watch this film, just because it is fantastic.Remember, remember the name of this film, V for Vendetta. I know of no reason, this film should should not be watched.
