00:00:05 — Which film has had the biggest impact on me? I'd have to say Jack
Nicholson's performance in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Trying to choose
just one of Nicholson's great performances is difficult, and he was amazing
in The Shining, but he is heroic, funny and menacing as McMurphy, who ends
up in a prison ward for the mentally ill and leads a fight against Nurse Ratched.

00:00:34 — This film isn't only great entertainment, it goes much deeper than
this and gives us a wonderful insight into society. Everything about the film
is brilliant. The plot, direction, filming, casting, oh and of course the acting.
Rarely can a film make you laugh and gasp with horror and shock at the same
time. Rarely can a film leave you so entertained, yet thinking about its
disturbing scenes.

00:01:03 — The book by Ken Kesey is brilliant, but I believe the film is better
than the book.

00:01:13 — I really enjoyed the Japanese film Zatoichi, which starts

as a straightforward samurai movie, turns into a comedy and ends as a dance
scene. I love it mainly because the lead actor and director is Takeshi Kitano,
who some may know as Beat Takeshi. Kitano is famous as an actor, director,
comedian, kids» TV favourite, novelist, poet, cartoonist and painter, and
he seems to have made a film that combines a number of his talents.

00:01:48 — Kitano plays the blind masseur, Zatoichi, who turns out
to be incredibly skilled with a sword. He wanders into a town harassed
by a criminal gang and helps two geishas take revenge on the men who
murdered their parents.

00:02:06 — I loved Kitano's performance as the chuckling, shuffling, friendly

masseur who turns into a revenging warrior when required, he makes
an intensely likeable main character while speaking very few words throughout
the film.

00:02:26 — In terms of visual impact, I think I'd have to say Crouching Tiger,
Hidden Dragon, with excellent performances from Michelle Yeoh and Zhang
Ziyi, two of Asia's greatest actresses. This movie has breathtaking fight scenes
and contains beautiful landscapes. Shapes. The cinematography is outstanding
and I think it won an Oscar for art direction. I also loved the beautiful musical
score and especially the use of the cello.

00:02:56 — The film was based on a novel by novelist Wang Dulu, but
I can't say which I preferred as I haven't read the book. The film was a Chinese,
Hong Kong, Taiwanese, American co-production directed by Ang Lee. The
dialogue is in Mandarin with subtitles and, in my opinion, that version is much
better than the version with English voiceovers.

00:03:24 — I've enjoyed many of the Sherlock Holmes films and Holmes is the
most portrayed movie character with more than 70 actors playing the part
in over 200 films. I enjoyed watching. Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee
portraying Holmes and also recent versions with the brilliant. Robert
Downey Jr. I also like the modern series set in New York, which stars Lucy Liu
as Dr. Watson. But to be honest, I prefer the books, which made a huge
impression on me when I first read them, and the reason's simple.
00:03:57 — Sherlock Holmes himself is a fascinating person, someone we can
all admire. He's got a brilliant intellect and incredible analytical powers.
He's also got amazing powers of observation. Just by looking at people, he can
deduce all kinds of things about them and their lives. He's supremely talented
as a detective and can solve the most difficult cases.

00:04:20 — But he has human failings as well. He has character flaws, like
he can be very arrogant, especially in his relations with his sidekick, Dr.
Watson. Watson accompanies him on most cases, and he isn't stupid, but.
Holmes is so brilliant, and he's a very courageous person, especially when
dealing with some very dangerous men. He's knowledgeable, and he's talented
musically. He often plays the violin when he's in an unhappy mood.

00:04:50 — He's very believable as the main character in the stories. When
I was young, my uncle used to read extracts from the stories to me, and he could
quote pages of the stories by heart. I love Sherlock Holmes and I've reread the
stories many times.
