JCTV News Oct 3 Critique

Section 3's newscast for this week was very good overall once again. I think we improved over last week as well. I think that I did my part as the audio mixer pretty well. I also believe that I did my job better than last time. I played the music at the beginning and at the end for good duration's and the fading at the end seemed to go pretty fluently. Always room for improvement though. Our class cleaned up some as well from last week by doing some little things better, like keeping elbows out of the picture and speaking clear. We have put out 2 newscasts already so I believe that there is something to proud of right there. If we keep working hard, we will be able to improve our news and continue to put out quality news for our entire school to take advantage of.

Forrest Gump Movie Review

Forrest Gump is recognized by many people as a great movie with great acting a great plot. I too think that Forrest Gump is a great movie and there are plenty of reasons on why I think that way. Forrest Gump is about simple man with a fairly low I.Q. but he has great intentions. He goes through childhood with his best and only friend Jenny. His 'mama' teaches him the ways of life. Forrest eventually leaves to join the army for service in Vietnam, where he finds new friends. None of this matters because all that he can think of is his childhood sweetheart, Jenny.
The role of Forrest Gump is played by actor Tom Hanks. Hanks does a wonderful job of playing a character that is not quite on the bright side which could be difficult for actors to do well. Hanks delivers some inspirational quotes and some of the most famous quotes there are. The most famous of those is likely “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.” This quote has been used in various places at various times to explain life. It’s a quote that most people out there are aware of.
Forrest Gump was such a great movie on so many different levels. It was quite entertaining for the fact of the comedy included. But the best part about this movie was about the inspiration that it delivered in a variety of ways. One way that it inspired was that anyone can lead a successful life. Forrest wasn’t a smart man, but he was able to go out and make use of his life in the army, and had great adventures. Life should never be able to drag you down and not allow you to be successful or have fun.

The most important message the Forrest Gump delivers is that you should work harder than everybody else. No matter who you are and what talents you have and how smart you are, you can be successful if you work harder. For these reasons, the creators of Forrest Gump hit a home run with this film. It had great entertainment values and it taught some great life lessons. Everyone and anyone that has ever watched this movie should be able to take something important away from the movie. It also doesn’t hurt that this movies could give watchers some laughs.
