Short Film: A day in the life of a Uni Student

-
Image
A short film that depicts some of the many problems we university students encounter each day. The short stars the three of us (Andrew, James, Julian) as we portray the different types of university students that exist across all universities in Australia and most likely the world as we delve across our financial issues, ability to concentrate in class, our poor and unhealthy sleep schedule and even our very own desire to find a shortcut to a more pleasant life. In the making of our short film, each individual member contributed with unique scenarios that we could film as well as act in whilst maintaining a fair amount of screen time. Everyone of us was willing to listen to each other in terms of how the script for each scene should play out as well as give input if they believed it would make the film better overall. In terms of digitally editing the final product, we all had a say in the music that would be selected as well as which clips filmed would make the final cut as well a

This leads to to the individual's life spiralling out of control. Review: This film is fueled with dark humour and anti-social behaviour themes. To completely understand the film in its entirety it may be neccessary to watch it multiple times. This will not be an issue given the movie keeping its audience captivated with exceptional cinematography and character developing. With multiple surprises throughout the film, the audience is kept entertained and guessing throughout the film about how it will end.

Title: Romeo + Julie (1996) Classification: PG Running time: 2h Genre: Drama, Romance Description:  This film is a modern and innovative adaptation of one of Shakespeare's famous plays and love stories, Romeo & Juliet.  It follows the classic story of Romeo & Juliet although in a modern day city of Verona Beach Review: This is a passionate and pacy film, geared for a modern audience. The play has been completely reinvented with the original remains of the play only found in the dialogue of the film. Because of the old english language, at times the film can be hard to follow. However, the adaptation in beautifully integrated and is thrilling, contemporary and presents a major shakespearean theme of Chaos. This film is one to watch! Rating: 10/10    Andrew Antoun (image: https://cdn.empireonline.com/jpg/80/0/0/1000/563/0/north/0/0/0/0/0/t/films/454/images/ldiZsKkwVR7sHnkQZmzoPhKmEo3.jpg)

Title:  John Wick 2014 Classification: R Running time: 1h 41min Genre:  Action, Crime, Thriller Description:  The most feared ex-hitman is forced out of retirement to track down the son of a Russian mob who took everything from him. Keanu Reeves stars in this blood filled adventure which will have you asking for more and more action. Review: Although the movie lacks a solid plot line, the spectacular action choreography in this film definitely makes John Wick worth the watch. Not only does it highlight that actions do speak louder than words, this film does a solid job of showing how deadly a professional hit-man can be when there isn't any mercy or plot shields. Watch Keanu Reeves let all hell break when a Russian gangster does the unthinkable - kill his dog.

Title:  Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014) Classification:  R Running time:  2h 19min Genre:  Action, Adventure, Comedy Description:  When the world is being threatened by an evil tech genius with a particular set of skills, a top secret spy organisation known as Kingsman looks to recruit a promising but unrefined boy from the streets. Review:  Not your typical spy movie, ‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’ shows the audience what happens when villains make realistic choices, and although some parts may not make sense this movie is whole lot of unstoppable fun bodying a different type of spy genre. So follow Eggsy as he matures not only as a better spy, but ultimately becomes a better man on his adventure to save the world… and a princess!

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)

Title:  Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) Classification:  PG13 Running time:  2h 13min Genre:  Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi Description:  The Jedi have gone hiding and with the plans of a powerful weapon in the hands of the rising Imperial Empire, the Rebel Alliance makes some risky moves to try and steal the plans for the weapon known as the Death Star. Review:  Probably the best Star Wars film since ‘The Empire Strikes Back’, not only does this movie bridge the gap between episodes three and four but it also gives us a little realistic insight of how things went down when they weren’t dictated by who had the better lightsabre skills and how a little hope could save all that could be lost. The movie is also topped off with a cameo by the dark lord himself!
