Santa Jr.

This is a Christmas movie, it begins with Santa Jr., a young man, is caught near a family's fireplace by the police. He could have prevented himself from getting caught but he does not have the Christmas Powder (Christmas powder only works on Christmas Eve.) Because of his duty to the children, so he gets himself a public lawyer. She manages to get him released to her home for the holidays but he will be under house arrest. The detective who arrested Santa Jr. has a crush on his lawyer. The detective is afraid the Christmas bandit will be dangerous, so with the help of Santa Jr., they managed to capture the bandit and continue the Christmas Spirit.

What I saw is how Christmas affects the Americans’ way of life. It is a motivation tool for the kids because it encourages them to behave and do good things for themselves and their families

In my opinion, this is a good movie for Christmas and I also like Christmas too. So, I enjoyed watching this movie very much.

Arrowhead

The movie is all about the war between Indain and white. They fighting against each other while the white people want peace but Indain want fight to prove they are warrior and their land back. The story begin with chief of Scouts Ed Bannon, he avoids an Apache because he doesn't not believe Indian want to peace with a white man. The US Army is trying to talk peace with the Apaches and move them to reservations, and they take Bannon's efforts as detrimental to their new policies, so they fire him. When the Apache chief's son Torinada returns from an Eastern education, Bannon becomes suspicious of his motives with Torinada in the past. Later they fight, many of them died. At last the white man win.

I saw how Indian people fight, Indian costume and their conflict. I think you all know what I will mention for the first and second so, I will skip to the third one. It's conflict of Indian and white. The whites want to peace with Indian with a condition to move them to reservations but Indians don't agree with them. Firstly, Indians do by White's order but they have a plan, a plan with well prepare. So later they fight.

In my opinion, this is a boring movie, it not interesting me at all. First, it is a very old movie, maybe 50 years. I don't know any of stars in this movie. Second, it is not given me much knowledge. I'm fall sleep many times while I watching it. The entire movie is nothing, fighting and fighting all the time. So, I have to push me to finish it. However, it's not a great movie for me. warrior.

I got many things from this movie. First is Indian believed, which is they can come back from death for some propose. Second is the way they fight, they are fight with unique style such as they shout a specific sound or make a symbol to warm their enemies. Third one is Indian people is a quiet, they don't talk to each other much or speak when it nessasory. Last one is the way they give born, other will lie down but Indian people will stand when giving born.

My opinion

First t thought this is not a good movie but when I finished it. It is a good movie, I guaranteed. It given me many of knowledge such as culture, fighting style and their believed. So, it is a great Indian movie.
