My Holiday

Last week, I had a great holiday. My family and I went to Bandung. We stayed at our relative’s house at the centre of Bandung city. When we entered the house, we were fascinated by the beautiful small garden with the colorful flowers and a small fishpond. It gave the touch of relax situation at that house. I stopped, sat at the branch for a while to enjoy the beautiful look from the colorful flowers and saw the fishes swam inside the pond.


On Monday, we went to the first destination that was Tangkuban Perahu Mountain. A long the street to the mountain, there were high green trees on the street edge. Then we arrived at The Tangkuban Perahu Mountain. I felt the fresh air and took some pictures with the beautiful scenery on that place. The time was running, we felt hungry and decided to eat. We really enjoyed those delicious meals. Because it almost reached evening, we went home.


On Tuesday, we went to Cibaduyut, the second destination. I couldn’t wait to hunt the shoes at Cibaduyut. When we arrived, there was a crowd of people walked a long the street. My family and I looked for the good shoes and also with the cheapest price too. We did bargain in order to get the best price or the cheapest one. After we got the shoes, we moved to the bag shop. As a matter of fact, we didn’t have any plan to buy bags. However, the price at Cibaduyut, either shoes or bags was cheap, and finally we decided to use a part of our money to buy bags. Also, we didn’t forget to buy some souvenirs. In the evening, we went to our relative’s house.


Well, that was a great and wonderful holiday. I really enjoyed it. Spending the time to visit the interesting place with my family, bought some souvenirs, shoes, and bags, was the greatest holiday ever.

ELEPHANT
Elephants are large land mammals in two genera of the family Elephantidae: Elephas and Loxodonta. Three species of elephant are living today: the African Bush Elephant, the African Forest Elephant and the Asian Elephant (also known as the Indian Elephant). The elephant's gestation period is 22 months, the longest of any land animal. At birth it is common for an elephant calf to weigh 120 kilograms (260 lb). They typically live for 50 to 70 years, but the oldest recorded elephant lived for 82 years.


Elephant has gray thick skin, thick legs, huge sides and backs, large hanging ears, a small tail, little eyes, long white tusks and above all, elephant has a long nose, the trunk. The trunk, is a fusion of the nose and upper lip, elongated and specialized to become the elephant's most important and versatile appendage. The elephant draws up water by its trunk and can squirt the water all over its body like a shower bath. In fact, the trunk serves the elephant as long arm and hand.


The tusks of an elephant are its second upper incisors. Tusks grow continuously; an adult male's tusks grow about 18 cm (7 in) a year. Tusks are used to dig for water, salt, and roots; to debark trees to eat the bark; to dig into baobab trees to get at the pulp inside; and to move trees and branches when clearing a path. right- or left-tusked. The dominant tusk, called the master tusk, is generally shorter and more rounded at the tip from wear.


Elephants live in a structured social order. The social lives of male and female elephants are very different. The females spend their entire lives in tightly knit family groups made up of mothers, daughters, sisters, and aunts. These groups are led by the eldest female, or matriarch. Adult males, on the other hand, live mostly solitary lives.


Larger, long-lived, slow-breeding animals, like the elephant, are more susceptible to overhunting than other animals. They cannot hide, and it takes many years for an elephant to grow and reproduce. At the turn of the 20th century, it is estimated that elephants numbered between 5–10 million, but hunting and habitat destruction had reduced their numbers to 400,000 to 500,000 by the end of the century.

Holiday in Pasir Kencana Beach


Last week my friend and I were bored after three weeks of holidays, so we rode our bikes to Pasir Kencana Beach, which is only five kilometres from where I live. When we arrived at the beach, we were surprised to see there was hardly anyone there.

After having a quick dip in the ocean, which was really cold, we realized one reason there were not many people there. It was also quite windy. After we bought some hot chips at the takeaway store nearby, we rode our bikes down the beach for a while, on the hard, damp part of the sand. We had the wind behind us and, before we knew it, we were many miles down the beach.

Before we made the long trip back, we decided to paddle our feet in the water for a while, and then sit down for a rest. While we were sitting on the beach, just chatting, it suddenly dawned on us that all the way back, we would be riding into the strong wind.

When we finally made it back home, we were both totally exhausted! But we learned some good lessons that day.

For that we, human, also considered to take the responsibility to stop and fix this riot for the sake of our only earth.

Hermit In Banaran


Many years ago, there lived a hermit in a forest in Banaran island. He did not grow food but depended on the jungle fruit to survive. Soon, there was a drought, and all the plants and fruit trees in the jungle died.

The old man had nothing to eat now, so he turned to begging. He went to a nearby village in Sekaran island trying to get some food. At first, the villagers were happy to help him. However, when he came continually, they refused to give him any more food. They told him to grow his own food.

One day, while the hermit was sitting in his hut, sad and hungry, he began to think about growing his own food. Just then, a boatman stopped by and taking a pity on hermit gave him some “paddy” seeds.

Before the boatman went away, he said, “These seeds will grow and give you everlasting harvest if you work very hard. If you are tired of the work, the “paddy” plants will turn into weeds.”

The old hermit worked hard to clear the land and sowed the seeds before the rain came. Strangely, after a short period of time, the “paddy” was ready for harvesting. The old man got a lot of rice from the harvest. After each harvest, the plants grew back again right away.

When the villagers heard about the hermit and his wonderful “paddy”, they flocked to his “paddy” field and took home as much “paddy” as they could.

One day, hermit became so tired of harvesting the “paddy then he shouted,” Oh, stop growing, you wretched thing!” As soon as he had said this, the “paddy” plants turned into weeds.

FINAL RECOUNT

FLOOD

I was in the second grade of junior high school when it happened. That day was so cloudy so I expected that it would be raining so hard. Fortunately, I was in my school when it was raining. The day ran fast, but the rain did not stop yet. I bet that the rain made the rivers overflowed.

I met my cousin at the parking lots, we rode our bicycle to go home, because the rain was still running, we decided to break through the rain. We got wet immediately and be careful to get home. We travelled through the street which overflowed by the water. We were so careful because if we got slip we would splash into the river.

When we arrived at the highway, we thought that we escaped from the flood, but the next tragedy happened. We were almost glad that we, finally, would get home because that day was so terrible. However, we saw a crowd in front of us and we decided to check this out. We almost gave up when we saw a bridge, which was the only way to get home, overflowed by the water and we could not pass it because of the torrential current. We waited and waited until the current moved slow.

We had no idea about what we were going to do because it was in the late afternoon and we could not inform our parents about our condition, no choise, because at that time we had no cell-phone yet. When the current was moving slow, my cousin and I faced the current and guided our bicycles through the water. We were so fear because in the fact the current was not that slow, although we saw it was slower than before, actually the current moved fast. It also brought the mucks with it and it impeded our moving.

However, finally we arrived at the top road of the bridge, and we were not glad at all because we had to face the current, again. With the brave heart, we lunged at the current and we succeeded to pass it. We all were wet from the top until the bottom, and we continued our journey to go home.

When we were at home, our parents were looking forward to us, and we told them what actually happened along the road. That flood was the worst since I have been living in this town, and it subsided by the night passed

LILY AND THE DREAMLAND

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Lily. She was a little young stubborn girl. She lived with her parents in a big city. She was spoiled by her parents so that she was rather arrogant. Actually she had lots of friends, but because of her egotism, her friends went away from her. She had no friends in the end, so to cheer her up, her parents sent her to her grandparents’ house in the country.

At the very first time, she refused to be sent to the country because she thought that it would be so boring. Moreover, she had never met her grandparents since she was two years old, but her parents insisted her to move and it could not be helped anymore, so she decided to move in wrench way. She was drived there by her parents.

In the country, Lily’s grandparents were excited that their granddaughter would come. They set everything for their beloved granddaughter’s coming. When Lily arrived at the country, she found that the situation was totally different, green was in surroundings and she began to love this place. After setting her stuff up, she wandered around her grandparents’ house. She met another girls and boys who played together and it caused a bit jealous in her heart, but because of her arrogance, she ignored her feeling of loneliness and continued her wandering untill she was in the face of a forest. She felt a little bit scared and decided to go back to her grandparents’ house.

In the dinner, she asked her grandmom about the forest which she saw in her today wandering. Her grandmom warned her promptly that she was not allowed to go there anymore because the forest was dangerous.

“Lily, you may NOT go there anymore! That forest is dangerous!” warned her grandmom.

“Ok, grandmom.. I will not go there anymore, but I‘m a bit curious what happened behind that forest, because I found that that forest is just like another forest I saw along the road I went here.” said Lily, still in her stubbornness.

“That forest eats whoever who come into it, Lily. Once you come into the forest, you will never go back.” said her grandmom in a scary voice.

“Cool…” Lily murmured.

“That is NOT cool at all, my dear Lily. You have to put it in your mind that that forest is so dangerous! Understand?!” warned her grandmom, again.

Lily nodded as if she understood what her grandmom said, but Lily was still in curious about that forest. Then she went to her bed and before she slept, she made a promise to herself that she would go back to the forest someday. And yes, she would make it!

One day, her grandparents were away for paying a visit of an old friend. She was warned by her grandmom that she was forbidden to go to the forest, she nodded, again.

“It’s the time” she whispered.

She ran into the forest and stopped immediately, she got amazed that this forest was so beautiful.

“Why did grandmom forbid me to go to this forest? It’s so beautiful…” Lily murmured.

She kept walking and walking, she was not aware that she had walked so far, when she knew that she got lost, she began to be panic. She tried to trace her previous path, but she could not make it. Then she began to cry and regreted his fool decision to go to the forest.

“What’s going on dear?” asked a strange voice.

Lily gazed up and was surprised that she saw a honey bear stood in front of her.

“Aaaaaaargh…………” she screamed.

Then she fainted on the ground and heard nothing. When she was conscious, she saw a honey bear, a rabbit, and a squirrel.

“Are you ok?” aksed them.

Lily was afraid of them, she was speechless and did not know what to do.

“Are they talking to me?” thought her.

“Do you feel dizzy or what, honey?” asked a honey bear.

“You..you are an animal, but you can speak. Am I dead? Where am I?” asked Lily, in a confused face.

“Hahaha…you are not in a human world, girl. You are in the Dreamland! Of course we can speak as you can.” told a rabbit.

“What? I’m in what?” asked Lily

“THE DREAMLAND! You’re in the Dreamland, don’t you get it? You come into the forest and tada..you’re here!” said a squirrel.

Lily got up and looked around. She found that she was in a little cottage.

“So…you’re able to speak as me?” asked Lily.

“Is it a question? I’ve told you that, right?” asked a rabbit.

“Pip, don’t be too rough to her.” said a honey bear.

“Okey…”

“Oh..it’s name is Pip..” Lily whispered.

“You’re not afraid of us, are you?” asked a honey bear.

“Well..a bit..I just still don’t believe that you all can speak..and…I wanna go home, to my grandparents, they must be so worry about me.” said Lily.

“Oh.. yes, I understand..my name is Mary, anyway. You?” asked a honey bear.

“Lily..” Lily answered.

“Pip.” said a rabbit. “Jack.” said a squirrel.

“Oh..ha..hai…nice to see you all, it’s always nice to make new friends.” Lily said.

Deep, in the heart of Lily’s, she was so happy because, at least, she had friends. Although her friends were not human beings.

“So, are you going to go back to your grandparents’ house?” asked Jack.

“I wish I could.” answered Lily.

“How if we have a dinner first? I bet you’re hungry, my dear Lily.” said Mary.

“Emm..be honest, yes, I’m a bit hungry.” Lily was ashamed.

Along the dinner, Lily was told by her new friends that she could be there because she had passed the portal which connected with the human world. Then Mary told her that there were some other people who came into the forest too, but they could not be out from it because they did not want to follow their advice to jump down the Blackwell. In short, people who were from a human world had to jump down to the Blackwell which was placed in the middle of the forest if they wanted to go back to the human world, and it was the only way.

“But they got anger and ran away from us instead. They didn’t believe us.” said Mary.

“The last news which I heard that they were killed by Leo.” said Pip.

“Leo? Who is he?” asked Lily.

“Leo is a lion who always kills people who come from the human world.” answered Pip.

“Hah? Why? That means that I’ll be killed by him, too? Oh..no..I’ve to go out from this forest as soon as possible!” Lily panicked.

“Calm down honey..you’ll be ok. We’ll help you to go to the Blackwell.” Mary was cooling her down.

“But, How Mary? I’ve heard from my friends that Leo keeps an eye on the Blackwell! We cannot go there easily!” said Jack.

“But we have to bring her to the Blackwell as well, so that she can go home.” said Mary.

“Oh..God.. Do we have to face Leo? Ugh..I won’t, you’re pleased to do that then Mary. She came here by herself, so she goes back by herself, too!” said Jack.

“C’mon Jack…don’t be that coward!” Pip snapped.

“Coward? You said that I’m coward?! Ok then, you yourself help her!” Jack left the cottage.

Silent. Mary decided to help Lily, and so did Pip. They made a plan for escaping her.

In the following day, Lily, Mary, and Pip went into the middle forest for seeking the Blackwell. Actually, the one who knew the way to the Blackwell was Jack, but he was not in team so they had to manage their way by theirselves. However, Jack came up all of sudden.

“Well..I decided to help her, am I expected to be here?” asked Jack coyly.

“Whoa….Jack, of course! You’re in team now!” answered Pip and then hugged him tight.

Then, they continued their journey finding the Blackwell. When they arrived at the Blackwell, Leo blocked their way. He did not want if Lily jumped down to the well, of course! The one reason why Leo always killed people was not he wanted to eat them, but he avenged to all people because his family were killed by a human many years ago.

“Fight me then, if you can defeat me, she may get into the well.” Leo challenged.

“But it’s impossible! Leo must be so strong! No way! I won’t let you all fight him! I’d rather stay in this forest and die than let you all die for me!” Lily messed around.

“My dear Lily, you have to go out from this forest otherwise Leo will kill you, it’s better for us to die than you. You have to go back to your family.” said Mary, as usual, cooling her down.

“OK! Get set, ready, FIGHT!!!” Pip was impassioned.

When Pip and Mary were fighting Leo, Jack helped Lily to look for a chance whenever they could get into the well. And the chance was coming, Leo got weaker and weaker because he was hurt by Mary on the throat. Jack led Lily to the well, when they got the mouth-well, suddenly Leo fell down upon them. Lily and Jack fell into the Blackwell, together.

Silent. Nothing could be heard. Lily thought that she was died. But suddenly her cheek was hurt. She was conscious and saw Jack beside her.

“Hei Jack, thank’s for waking me up. Where are we now?” asked Lily.

However, Jack said something, but Lily could not understand what Jack said. And she found that they were in the face of forest.

“Jack, I dunno what you’re talking about. I don’t understand.” Lily said.

“Lily…Lily….where are you?” a voice called her.

Lily was aware about two things, first that Jack could speak just in the Dreamland, if he couldn’t speak, it means that they were in the human world! The second is that she knew that that voice was her grandpa’s, it means that she was in the human world!

“Jack, we’re home! We’re in my world! Yippiii…. Oh, thank’s Jack. You save my life! Mary and Pip too!” she was in a gaiety, but she suddenly felt sad.

“How about Mary and Pip? Jack, we have to go back!” said Lily.

But Jack held her finger, he shook his head.

“Yes, you’re right Jack, they sacrificed themselves to save me. So, what are we going to do Jack?” asked Lily. “We have to help them.” said Lily.

“Lily!!!” shouted her grandpa. “Grandpa!” Lily cheered

They hugged each other, Lily’s grandpa was not alone, he was with the other villagers who were looking for Lily. And Lily was found, they came back to the village. However, before she went home, she saw Jack got into the forest, when he looked back to Lily, she said thank you and smiled at him. He nodded and lost in the forest. Lily would never forgot her kind animal friends, because of them she could get out from the forest and be in her family again.

From this experience, she learned that friendship is important and she gonna make and keep it. She also promised to herself that she would obey her parents and grandparents.

Menculik Miyabi

Kidnap Miyabi! Well, the first thing imagined after hearing the word Miyabi, well of course we all both know. At first I thought this movie not be much different from the video-the video is already circulating everywhere. But after watching this movie I was wrong.

The story is Maria Ozawa aka Miyabi is assigned to the Jakarta came to direct lottery winners from products dimodeli by him. There also were three friends: Kevin (Nicky Tirta), Ben (Hardi Fadillah), Aan (Farish Nahdi), which tied a bet and had to take a beautiful woman to a birthday party Jessica (Herfiza Novianti). The same day also, the three of them read on personal blogs Miyabi that inform that Miyabi was going to Jakarta. They bertigapun minded to pick kidnap Miyabi, which eventually became the title of this movie.

When a lot of friends I'm saying that this movie sucked, I think this film is not that bad. Indeed hell, from facet stories somewhat cheesy, but i liked wild humor contained in film. The film is successfully made me laugh, although sometimes there are moments where I laughed out loud and laughing mediocre.

Acting the cast here either very silly or very standard. Most of the acting feels a bit forced, not good, quasi-pretentious idiots, and this is very annoying me as a spectator because I did not like the same people are idiots. Imagine when lo have to watch a movie where most of the characters is a person who is very lo hate in everyday life. Please feel yourself how it feels.

Well, judging from the cinematography, there are several shots with the angle a good camera when the scene of shooting in Japan, but other than that the scenes of another, while in Jakarta, all standard. Nothing special about DOPnya. There's even a scene that SAME is used TWO times in ONE movie, please note carefully.

Fortunately, which I think become more value from this film, that film is not porn porn so, although there are some scenes bubble bath in a bathtub, but at least the Mie Yao Bie - Miyabi's wannabe and hasbeen - still using the tank top to cover body parts are private, and there are also scenes in the swimming pool where Mie Yao Bie use only bikinis very mini. But everything is still within acceptable limit, has not exceeded the limits of the norms that already exist. Can not believe? Please watch and compare with the Indonesian movies horror other who starred goddess of peach and please refer to the contents.

It's not that much good, but for me this movie quite entertaining. This film is not suitable for lo who want to watch with the motivation to watch painful for her because the star is very little appeared in the film. The film is more suitable viewing for those who want to look for entertainment on Saturdays.

Some of the last sentence. I think the editor of the film is somewhat salaries blind because most of the editing only show one face and turned to face the other players. Really like soap operas that almost every night on TV. But mostly yes, not whole. In conclusion kidnap Miyabi can be analogue as an FTV featuring Miyabi.

PlayStation

The usage of video game console named PlayStation should be banned. There is no beneficial thing if we playing PlayStation. In fact, there are many losses getting from playing PlayStation.

Firstly, many people forget the time when they are playing PlayStation. They forget their obligations and instead emphasis on PlayStation.

Secondly, for children, there are many elements of violence in PlayStation that very possible for children to be imitated in real life. They will think that violence is common.

And the last one that cannot be indisputable is that linger long in front of the television screen is not good for the eyes or even damaging the eyes instead.

Diana, Last Day of a Princess

Have you ever know for sure the real life of Lady Diana? If not, this movie could be a recommendation to know the life of a Lady Diana. Diana, Last Day of a Princess is a film tells about Princess Diana’s true life as a wife of United Kingdom Prince named Charles. This film was constructed by Bridget Rowe as an editor and Paul Denned as a picture editor. This controversial documentary recounts the final two weeks of her life through revealing interviews and dramatized reenactments. Highlights include interviews with biographer Andrew Morton; bodyguard Kez Wingfield; Dodi Al-Fayed's father and masseuse; and Jean-François Musa, owner of the Etoile Limousine service.
At the beginning, it shows the nearly time of Diana’s death in a car accident on August 31st 1997. At that time actually she still regarded as a Princess of people in the world even she had divorced from his husband. She still wanted to be an ambassador for her country although she was not a Princess anymore. Then the story goes back to her past. When she knew that Charles had another woman in his life, she felt depressed, but she didn’t show up her sadness to the people in her surrounding. Later on, a businessman Muhammad Al Fayed offered her to have a summer holiday in San Tropez. He promised her some luxurious facilities including her guarding. Beside that, he had a hidden planning that is to introduce Diana with his son, Dodi.
The plot uses in this film is flashback. The story emphasizes in Diana’s feeling. This movie combined actors and news footage to show how Diana reached the emotional state when she was in at the time of her death. I think that this movie pretty well portrayed Diana's last month of life, focusing on those last days. I would recommend it to any Diana fan. The movie did not go past the accident, and that was inferred rather than shown. I think that this was a good move. I also think that it would be interesting to pair this with the movie, "The Queen". Very professionally and thoughtfully done. I highly recommend it.

How is a Kite Flying?

A kite is an object which is made from a light material stretched over a frame. Due to its light material a kite will lift off the ground and fly when it is tilted into the wind.
A kite is uses wind to make it fly because it is heavier than air. When wind travels over the surface of the kite, it is split into two streams of air. One stream of the air goes over the kite while the second stream goes under the kite.
The upper stream creates an area of low pressure above the kite. The lower stream hits the kite at a shallow angle and creates an area of high pressure.
The high pressure area has a pushing effect while the low pressure area has a pulling effect. The combination of push and pull can create enough force to lift the kite into the air.
Kites have been known for thousand of years. They are used for military or scientific purposes. Today’s kites are much used for leisure and competition.

Is Smoking Good for Us? (Analytical Exposition)

Before we are going to smoke, it is better to look at the fact. About 50 thousands people die every year in Britain as direct result of smoking. This is seven times as many as die in road accidents. Nearly a quarter of smokers die because of diseases caused by smoking.Ninety percent of lung cancers are caused by smoking. If we smoke five cigarettes a day, we are six times more likely to die of lung cancer than a non smoker. If we smoke twenty cigarettes a day, the risk is nineteen greater. Ninety five percent of people who suffer of bronchitis are people who are smoking. Smokers are two and half times more likely to die of heart disease than non smokers.Additionally, children of smoker are more likely to develop bronchitis and pneumonia. In one hour in smoky room, non smoker breathes as much as substance causing cancer as if he had smoked fifteen cigarettes.Smoking is really good for tobacco companies because they do make much money from smoking habit. Smoking however is not good for every body else.

Notes on the generic structure of analytical exposition text above.
As we know that both analytical exposition and hortatory exposition are classified as an argumentative essay. Both present arguments to support the thesis stated in the orientation. This thesis places the writer’s position on the essay. From the generic structure, what makes major difference is that analytical exposition ends with paragraph to strengthen the thesis while hortatory makes a recommendation for readers.
1) Thesis: This pre-conclusive paragraph states the writer’s point of view about the topic discussed. Writer shows himself in clear position of the discussed topic. Paragraph 1 is the thesis of it. It states the fact of the very fatal impact of the smoking habit. Clearly, the writer wants to say that smoking is not a good habit.
2) Arguments: Presenting arguments in analytical exposition text is as important as giving conflict plot in narrative text. The series of argument will strengthen the thesis stated before. In this example of analytical exposition text, paragraph 2 and 3 are the detailed arguments presented in a reporting fact to support that smoking is not good even for smokers themselves. Furthermore, people who do not smoke but they are in a smoking area have the bad effect from a smoking habit as well.
3) Reiteration: The last paragraph actually restates the thesis. It is like a conclusive paragraph from the previous arguments. The last paragraph of the analytical exposition text above points again that smoking is not good for smokers and people around them. However, smoking is very beneficial to a Cigarette Companies.

Shoes
Shoes are common stuff for people in the world. Nowadays, I see that some people choose to wear shoes than sandals for their activities. There are some reasons why they are more comfortable to wear it. The reasons are, first, people feel comfortable on it, second, people can change their appearance by wearing shoes, and the last is that shoes give more safety for them.
The first reason is that people feel comfortable on wearing shoes. It is because they can move faster without being hesitate to be released with their shoes. Moreover, by the fixed size, people feel relax and make their foot be warm.
Second, people prefer shoes to sandals because they can change their appearance by wearing shoes. I can explain it from the types and the models of shoes. Today, shoes have a lot of types and models which make people look different from one event to another. For example, people will look gentle, cool, or even for the girls will look boyish, when they wear shoes type sport or commonly called cat. On the other side, they may look so girly or elegant by wearing high heels and wedges shoes.
The last reason is that shoes are able to save them. It is based on the material which is made for the shoes. Shoes material is flexible but strong enough. Furthermore, shoes can cover their foot more than sandals do. For this reason, shoes can protect their foot from any harm on the road. In addition, shoes also give them protection from ultraviolet rays.
I feel that people, mostly who live in the city with its pollution and bad effect of ultraviolet rays, should wear shoes because shoes are more useful for them.

Review of Shutter Island

Review

Shutter Island



Runtime : 2 hours 18 minutes
Genre : Dramas
Starring : Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Kingsley, Michelle Williams, Mark Ruffalo

"Shutter Island" is the story of two U.S. marshals, Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo), who are summoned to a remote and barren island off the cost of Massachusetts to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a murderess from the island's fortress-like hospital for the criminally insane.

Turning up in Shutter Island with anxiety ridden Beantown investigator, is Leonardo DiCaprio as US Marshal Teddy Daniels. Daniels is summoned to Ashecliffe Hospital for the criminally insane on desolate, hurricane swept Shutter Island. His task is to figure out how a homicidal woman (Emily Mortimer) who murdered her own children, managed to escape a locked ward and disappear. Accompanied by his more cool headed and laid back partner Chuck (Mark Ruffalo), Daniels embarks on a nerve jangling journey into mass institutional madness possibly including the dubious on site practitioners, and which slowly comes to put his own grip on reality to the test.

This movie adapted from novelist Dennis Lehane's bestseller of the same name, Shutter Island plays out in 1954, immersing the narrative in both real and imagined paranoid inclinations. And touching on the repressive national period tendencies of McCarthyism, and frightening new experimental psychiatric procedures like electric shock and the transorbital lobotomy administered through patient eyeballs. And converging with World War II vet Daniels' own post-traumatic disorder combat nightmares.

As the detective is swept up into a deepening, depraved scenario in which he fears his own imminent incarceration by suspect shrinks (Ben Kingsley, Max von Sydow) because he may know too much, Daniels begins to doubt his own sanity. This, while fleeing assorted lost and found psychos, born again Nazis, and Red Scare gulag rehab for unrepentant communists on the loose.Unfortunately, the movie increasingly feels as schizo as the patients. Are you muvee-freak? Do you want to see this movie? ask me...

Review

Twilight

Reviewed by Deni Puji Tri Utami

Twilight is a film produced by Summit Entertainment. It is an American-fantastic movie. The main Characters are Isabella Swan and Edward Cullen.

It is about Seventeen-year-old Bella Swan who moves to Forks, a small town on Washington state's rugged coast, to live with her father, Charlie, after her mother remarries to a minor league baseball player. She is quickly befriended by many students at her new high school, but she is intrigued by the mysterious and aloof Cullen siblings. Bella sits next to Edward Cullen in her biology class on her first day of school; he appears to be disgusted by her, it makes Bella becomes confused. A few days later, Bella is nearly struck by a van in the school parking area. Edward inexplicably moves from some feet away and stops the van with his hand. He later refuses to explain this act to Bella and warns her against befriending him. After much research, Bella eventually discovers that Edward is a vampire, though he only consumes animal blood. The pair fall in love and Edward introduces Bella to his vampire family, Carlisle, Esme, Alice, Jasper, Emmett, and Rosalie. Soon after, three nomadic vampires, James, Victoria, and Laurent arrive. They want to eat her. Edward and his family risk their lives to protect her, but James tracks Bella to Phoenix where she is hiding and lures her into a trap by claiming he is holding her mother hostage. James attacks Bella and bites her wrist, but Edward, along with the other Cullen family members, arrives before he can kill her. James is destroyed and Bella is taken to the hospital.

What kind of vampire are they? What will happen to Bella? What will Bella’s father do if he knows Bella is injured? Will Bella become a vampire? What will Victoria and Laurent do when they know that their friend is destroyed? To find out the answer you must watch “Twilight”. I have to say that the story is bright, romantic, intriguing, and tremendously satisfying.

I like this film because it makes me anxious to watch the next scene, and the next, and so on. I will never feel bored to watch it.
