The movie "Big Daddy" is a movie that I always loved watching throughout my childhood life. Adam Sandler acting as a foster father in this movie is very unique and a funny character that everyone will admire and love to be. Not that I am a father right know but in my future reference it would help me want to become a funny father like him. At first when I watched this film it only gave me the impression of funny and humor in the story. Also I didn't bother observing the theme or try to understand the message that the director wanted to get through. However, watching it again in my later years I got a different impression on the movie, which was the change in the characters and the relationship between a father and a son. I got this message through when Sonny started to open up his heart toward the young boy not only from his actions but the way he feels inside. It was really interesting when his life changed 180 degree opposite from a lazy bum to a heart warming man. His change in life shows the importance of a child. His motive of changing made me want to change as well.
Sonny can be related to me lifestyle because life is repetitive. All I do is go home and do the same old thing over and over again just like Sonny in the movie. Well, probably because im a high school student and most high school students have the same repetitive life go to school to accomplish there duty. However, in my situation I was able to change from being a lazy bum because of my surroundings. People like my family, teachers and mostly my friends made me want to become a different person. Someone supporting you is a big help in life.
Saving Private Ryan

Saving Private Ryan is one of my favorite war movie that I've watched so far in life. When I first watched this movie the content of the english was hard to understand and I did not get the deeper understanding of this movie. I knew the story was about war but I did not know who is fighting who for what purpose. In my head I had question marks going through my head making me confuse all the way through the movie. However, the two thing I got out of this movie was that war is happening and also Tom Hanks is the good guy. This is probably because I knew the actor and always thought that main characters are the heros. After a few month later I rewatched the movie once again to get a better understanding of the movie and got another view that I didn't get in the first time watching. The movie itself gave an Americans perspective view to the audience and made it look like the other countries were bad and evil. It is not a bad thing but overall war is war. There is no side of good or bad in reality. Overall the movie gave a message that we should not forget about war and by remembering the horrific event we don't have to make the same mistake again.
After watching this film I started to watch more war movies such like pianist, patriot, and much more. After all, it gave me the same message that war is a cruel thing and there isn't a good end. Also it reflects to the world today, not in the same situation but countries still disagree with each other making mistakes. It always makes me wonder why people are made to hate each other. Why cant one push back or even share or take turns. I understand that its more complicated then what I think but I wish we could all be equal and talk it through. I hope someday everyone could learn to understand each other and make the world a better place.
