Midnight Run (1988)
Midnight Run
This movie was the one of the most enjoyable movie's I've ever seen. The characters really matched the scene and made me want to see more. At the beginning i couldn't imagine how the film will move on and I thought Jack's purpose was only money. When Jack meets his daughter and his ex-wife, I think it was his turning point to pick friendship and justice. The point I like about this movie is the exchanges between Jack and Mardukas. At first, Jack was very strong against him but Mardukas starts tricking him and starts showing that he is not just a geek. It is also funny that the FBI aren't smart enough to take away Mardukas. I think this film has a couple of emotional moments plus action moments and mostly laughter completes this movie. Personally, the ending was easy to imagine so if it was a more unexpected ending I think it would have been a better film.
Knick Knack (1989)
Knick-Knack
This film's art was great and very easy to understand. The snow globe snowman wants to come out and he tries several things to come out. This film is so short, though it has many points to laugh. Therefore, I thought the importance of creating a story is not the time, the content of the story is very important. The picture of the film looks like an old game and little bit weird, though I liked it because it's like watching an amateur film that is super. I felt bad for the snowman that he couldn't get out and have fun, but it was a short and good comic story.
The Crush (2010)
The crush
This film is a story about a child falling in love into a teacher. This film was very scary but so sweet. I think Ardle was very smart to do this. At first, I guess he was really in love to the teacher but, he realized he can't marry her so changed his love to saving his teacher. The way he did it was a bit hard but I felt that his love is so strong. The man didn't have the feeling as Ardle.I thought it is very sweet to do things for people's happiness. It was a good point that he didn't change his feelings when his heart was broken, like some criminals and bad endings. I wish the film didn't show the gun until he and the man meet at the dark place. Because it would make it more horror and more like a surprise. It was good the boy's parents won't know what happened.
Gasman (1997)

This film is about a story couple kids that have a same father. The film didn't show much about the relationship of their parents and why they divorced, though the children made a great impact to the film. The girls fight was so realistic, I even felt tremor and also was able to think of the feeling of children who have divorced parents. The point I liked about this film is many things are showed very negative and dark. For example, the girl's jealousy, the boy's feeling, the parents secret, and the dark background. Christmas should be a happy time but in this film, it's a complicated event for them. Many short films have a happy ending, but this one is not really a happy ending or a sad one. I like this weird type of film.
Fish Out of Water (2005)
Fish Out of Water
After watching all i thought this was an unrealistic film but, it shows our stressed-out life style. The man's idea, rowing a boat work instead of using a car or a train was a good idea but, in most of the cities this is mostly impossible so i didn't really like the story. The point I like was when the man didn't arrive to the port where everyone's waiting and he is swimming like a fish. From this I thought we need to be creative to solve problems and live a stress free life. I think the human beings stress is very high compared to humans from hundreds and thousand of years ago. I wish we could live creative like this man in the film.
Father and Daughter (2000)
Father and Daughter
I thought this film was very sad and creative and well matched in music. The film doesn't give much information so first, I didn't know what was happening in the film and it was hard to understand it. But I thought it's better not having much information at first so we can think about what's happening. So, this film made me very emotional because I thought if I was the daughter it's very sad to not live with our loved ones. I felt the film's music made it a very emotional film. It really matches the film and shows the emotions very effectively. After watching the film I thought how happy I can be living with my family every day. The film's ending was very interesting because it doesn't make it clear what's going to happen afterwards.
Three Days in Kamakura (2012)
Three Days in Kamakura
I think this film shows the way we should live being kinder to other people. When we face problems we need to get help from others and help them too. The accident that happened in the film can happen anywhere in the world, so I thought be calm and helping people would be the best way to live. The story was a bit hard to understand at first, but after watching the whole film It made me clear. If I was David, I would do the same thing returning the child. I wouldn't even have the idea of trying keeping him. After making a right decision, I think it is possible to do better things like helping Mrs. Yamada out. The point I liked in the film was making us think what is happening. For example, about Keiko's and David's problem, and the relation of the characters. I think this film has many points to think about.
