The Rookie

It's never too late to believe in your dreams. The Rookie is based on a true story! I think his son must have been his source of motivation. I love his son, too!

a Review by Roger Ebert

Jim Morris was a high school science teacher/baseball coach. His players knew his dream and made a bet with him, "If we win district league, you tries out for Major League." ... They made it. "It's your turn, coach!"

The Shawshank Redemption

I like movies based on friendships much better than love stories. I bought a DVD of The Shawshank Redemption one and a half years ago. Finally, I watched it last night. It made me remember the importance of being true to myself!

a Review by Roger Ebert

I believe this is one of the best movies in 1990s. Unfortunately, although I used English subtitle, sometimes it was really difficult to understand their English. I need to watch it again!

The Last Samurai

Today, I got up early and watched a movie: The Last Samurai.

a Review by Roger Ebert

This famous movie is much more profound than I thought. It meminds me of Bushido: the Soul of Japan.

Last week I watched Rush Hour because my teacher said to me, "It's your homework." I've found both movies have something in common: west met east,
two guys were gradually getting to know each other, eventually shared the value.

Now I'm trying to watch a movie once a week just for fun!
