Movies 'n' Chill special trailer: The Nightmare!

Hi Everyone,

We have created a very special movie trailer for you. Kem, Enya, Jane and Ann created a short horror movie on the weekend at our university library.

It's our very first short film! We have much to learn and improve on, but we think you like our bad acting skills and hilarious background music.

Two of the hottest actors star alongside each other imn a big budget romantic sci-fi film, Passengers. Personally I love Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt and I can't wait for this film to come out in December!

Chris Pratt's character Jim and Jennifer Lawrence's Aurora find themselves alone on a passenger ship, after waking up from being frozen ninety years earlier than intended and being awoken from their sleeping pods.

They face a lifetime aboard the ship, with just each other for company. While the terrifying loneliness of their situation could easily be overwhelming, Aurora and Jim soon manage to find a silver lining: they both really, really fancy each other.

The ship and its unconscious people on board are in danger, and Jim and Aurora are the only ones in a position save everyone.

They are two passengers on board a spaceship transporting them to a new life on another planet. The trip takes a deadly turn before they reach their destination.

As Jim and Aurora try to unravel the mystery behind the malfunction, they begin to fall for each other, only to be threatened by the collapse of the ship and the discovery of the truth behind why they woke up.

The trailer shows Jim character hiding a few secrets from Aurora. Is there something more sinister to him than she knows?

Watch this space because it's going to be a great movie to watch this summer! Be sure to check it out at your nearest gold class cinemas for extra style and comfort!

Finding Dory 2016

Now that school holidays have started, we have the perfect solution for parents wanting to keep their kids entertained for those rainy days at home. Finding Dory is great movie that we just love at Movies 'n' Chill!

Parents need to know that Finding Dory is the long-awaited sequel to Pixar's 2003 classic Finding Nemo.

This time, instead of a worried parent trying to find his lost son the story revolves around Dory a tang fish that is  looking for her family that she lost when she was a kid. Like most Pixar movies, there are some very emotional moments, including a flash back in which young Dory is shown to have separated from her parents ,so  this  journey begins with Dory  searching for her parents in the great ocean that lies ahead.

This is until she forgets what she was looking for. There are other stressful separations between close friends as the  journey is taken  , as well as some peril and tense moments  for example the  predator giant squid the characters where  its action packed escape antics  which needs to be taken  down a notch , as well as slapstick and near misses.

This sad, beautifully voice-acted adventure is everything a sequel should be: emotionally satisfying, full of lovable  characters new and old, and just as Dory would want, utterly unforgettable. DeGeneres' performance  is shown to be  pitch perfect, and captures her great personality in this film.

Audiences will also love new characters in Finding Dory like Hank, who wants Dory's tag that grants her transfer to the Cleveland Aquarium. Dory also reconnects   herself with her old friends Destiny, who is a nearsighted whale shark, and  also meets Destiny's neighbor, Bailey,  who is a  beluga whale.

A  pair of sea lions help Marlin and Nemo hitch a ride into the institute via a kooky loon Becky. Although this movies shows that Dory's adventure is subtler than Nemo’s , it  tugs at the heart strings and teaches a valuable lessons about disabilities, teamwork perseverance , friendship and the unconditional love of family.

What I liked about this movie was  that  it showed dory never had a problem asking help very time she forgot given that she had a problem with her memory ,  in which case she developed  a coping mechanisms which is get help where she can and when help was not available she succeeds on her own terms.  so in other worlds "believe in yourself and you can do it "

We hope you little kids and big kids  out there like this awesome movie. Get set for lots of laughs!

The Pursuit of Happyness

This is the one classic movie I personally suggest every one should have look!

In San Francisco, in 1981, salesman Chris Gardner invested all the family savings in the Portable Bone Density Scanner. He thinks he made a wise decision, because the scanner can give denser than the X-ray picture, although it is a little expensive.

However, they do not sell as Chris's imagination, and even brought him a lot of trouble. When Chris walked around trying to figure out how to sell the scanner, his wife left him and he lost his house to his bank account and a credit card. Forced him with his son live in the street, Chris is desperate to find a stable job.

 Luckily, Chris had the opportunity to work for a stockbroker internship at Dean Witter. During the six months of training, he will not get a salary, there are 19 other candidates this unique position. At the same time, no money, homeless, Chris and his son have all kinds of difficulties. But he is very smart and hardworking, he will never give up. Eventually, for his efforts, Chris became Dean Witter's agent and started his career. In 1987, Chris founded investment firm Gardner Rich, and became a successful businessman.

In this great movie there are so many classic lines, from which I learned a lot. " You want something, go get it!" In reality, most of us have an equal chance if we really want it, just do it. “People can't do something by themselves they wanna tell you that you cannot do it.” Although we will encounter various difficulties, we must have confidence in ourselves and never give up.

In this movie, I realized another thing, which is Chris's love his son. In fact, he did all the efforts not only to realize his dream, but also to give happiness to his son. Chris said:”You have a dream, you got to protect it”.

The Martian is a science fiction movie, but i was very surprised to see the emotion Mark feels and the sacrifices that his crew members made.

Here is an oldie but a goodie!

FBI trainee Clarice Staring is pulled from her training at the FBI Academy at Quantico, Virginia by Jack Crawford of the Bureau's Behavioral Science Unit. He asks her to interview Hannibal Lecter, a former psychiatrist and incarcerated cannibalistic serial killer. His insight might prove useful in the pursuit of a serial killer nicknamed "Buffalo Bill", who skins his female victims' corpses.

Clarice travels to the Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, where she is led by Frederick Chilton to Lecter's solitary quarters.

Although initially pleasant, Lecter grows impatient. As she is leaving, one of the prisoners flicks semen at her. Lecter, who thinks this is disgusting calls Starling back and tells her to seek out an old patient of his. From there Lector helps Starling capture some of the most vicious criminals!

Lector skillfully digs into Starlings psyche, forcing her to reveal her innermost traumas and putting her in a position of vulnerability when she can least afford to be weak. The film also shows a lot of horrors of criminal acts with the psychological horrors of Lecter's slow-motion questioning of Clarice and of her memories that emerge from it.

The Butterfly Effect

Check Out this Classic of the week!

'The Butterfly Effect' is one of the famous classic movies people recommend. The movie was released in 2004, but still beloved by many viewers around the world as it teaches us a lesson at the end and also gives us surprise with few different endings.

I strongly recommend 'The Butterfly Effect' ! there are DVDs out there you can purchase so please Enjoy :)

Evan Treborn grows up with a single working mother and his friends Lenny, Kayleigh and Tommy. He suffered from black outs which led to psychological trauma, and lost part of his memories. After he moved to another place, his problem with blackout, got better eventually, but one day in college, he finds his old journal and suddenly it flashes him back to past.

Evan finds out that he can make changes to his choices he made in the past and tries to put things back to "normal". Whenever he tried to change the future, someone had to be in a serious situation, and whenever he tried to save the person, made other people to be in danger. He realises that there's always an impact on the changes he made, no matter what decision he makes. Finally he makes a decision to eliminate the 'curse'.

When Evan couldn't remember the past, it wasn't lost but did not happened to him yet, because the future Evan is experiencing him-self in the past while going back and forth. The director did a great story-telling with such complex set-up. Past and the future links together like a jigsaw puzzle with sorted memories in the diary. Evan wanted to make everyone happy, satisfied and equally. When he changed the future to bring Kelly back to live, it killed Tommy, when he went back to save Tommy, he became a disabled person and his mother suffered from cancer. So he finally makes a decision to go back and kills him-self when he is a fetus.

There are always side effects when the Mother Nature breaks.  In the movie, it tells Evan's mother went through abortion two times so we can guess that his siblings went through all the things just like Evan, and made the same decision he made. When Evan went to see his father who was hospitalized in psychiatric hospital, his father tries to kill him by chocking his neck. 

No Butterfly, No Butterfly effect.
