It is an engaging movie that always keeps me glued to the screen” said Alex.

Many viewers can resonate with the experiences and emotions portrayed by the characters, making it a relatable and enjoyable watch. Secondly, the performances by Lana Condor and Noah Centineo are captivating and their on-screen chemistry adds depth and authenticity to the story. Their portrayal of Lara Jean and Peter brings the characters to life and makes their relationship engaging and believable. Furthermore, the film’s direction by Susan Johnson is skillful, capturing the essence of the story and creating a visually appealing and emotionally resonant atmosphere. The choice of settings and the accompanying soundtrack enhance the overall experience and add to the film’s charm. Lastly, “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” is an uplifting and feel-good movie that can be enjoyed by a wide range of audiences. It offers a balance of romance, humor, and relatable coming-of-age themes, making it a perfect choice for a cozy night in or a movie night with loved ones. Overall, I recommend this movie because of its endearing story, strong performances, beautiful direction, and its ability to leave viewers feeling uplifted and entertained” said Julie .

 “I recommend “Spider-Man: Homecoming” because it is a fun and exciting superhero film that appeals to both fans of the Spider-Man character and newcomers to the franchise. The movie has great action sequences, impressive visual effects, and a well-developed story-line. It also captures the essence of Peter Parker’s struggle to balance his personal life with his responsibilities as Spider-Man. Additionally, the film has a fantastic cast, led by Tom Holland, who brings a youthful and relatable energy to the character. Overall, “Spider-Man: Homecoming” is an entertaining and enjoyable movie that I believe many people, especially those who enjoy superhero films, will greatly appreciate,”said Alex.

“Who do you think is the best and most exciting actor in this movie?”

“In “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before,” Noah Centineo stands out as the best and most exciting actor. His portrayal of Peter brings charm, sincerity, and a captivating energy to the character. Centineo’s performance is both charismatic and emotionally resonant, making him a standout in the film” said Julie.

“In my opinion, one of the best and most exciting actors in “Spider-Man: Homecoming” is Michael Keaton. He portrays the character of Adrian Toomes, also known as the Vulture, who serves as the primary antagonist in the film. Keaton brings a compelling and menacing presence to the character, making him both a formidable foe for Spider-Man and a complex, relatable character in his own right. The dynamic between Tom Holland’s Peter Parker and Keaton’s Vulture creates intense and thrilling moments throughout the movie. Keaton’s performance adds depth and intensity to the overall narrative, making him a standout actor in the film” said Alex.

“How do you think this movie could be better?” 

“ I would be honest and say that I think the film could be improved in some ways. One of the key points for me would be to further deepen the development of the characters, particularly the other girls who received the love letters. It would be interesting to explore their reactions, emotions and how this event affected their lives. Also, I might suggest making the plot a little more unpredictable, perhaps introducing some twists and surprises along the way. Finally, it would be nice to see more exploration of the deeper themes of the film, such as love, identity, and personal growth. I think these improvements could make the film even more engaging and appreciated by audiences” said Julie.

“One possible improvement could be a more developed and memorable supporting cast. While the main characters are well fleshed out, some secondary characters could have had more depth and screen time. Additionally, a more distinct and memorable visual style could enhance the overall impact of the film. A stronger emphasis on character development for Peter Parker’s high school life could also provide more emotional depth. Finally, a few more surprising plot twists could have added excitement to the story” said Alex.

 

“When do you usually watch movies ?” “I usually watch movies on weekends or during school vacations, when I have more free time. I also like to organize movie nights with my friends, where we gather at someone’s house and watch new movies or play movie trivia. Sometimes, when I need to relax or find inspiration, I also watch movies during the week, maybe after a long day at school. So I would say that I don’t have a specific time when I watch movies, it depends on what’s available and what opportunities arise” said Julie.

“ I usually watch movies on different occasions. Sometimes I watch them in the evening after dinner, as a relaxing way to end the day. Other times, I watch them in the afternoon, during the weekend, when I have more free time. I often watch them together with my girlfriend, it’s a special way to spend time together. But it is not only with her, I also watch movies with my friends when we have a movie night at home or at the cinema. Also, I really enjoy watching movies while traveling by train or airplane, because it is a great way to pass the time and get distracted. In general, I enjoy watching movies on different occasions” said Alex.

 So the best 10 movies are:   “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before.” “Spider-Man: Homecoming” ,”The Social Dilemma,” “The Irishman,” “Bird Box,” “Roma,” “Marriage Story,” “Extraction,”   “Stranger Things,” and “Black Panther.”
