My movie meter says:
Surprisingly good in terms of film making.
Some parts successfully create high-quality tense.
Same-old story.
Nice special effect.
Great visual interpretation.
So-so.
Average acting performances, even from Hillary Swank and Richard Gere.
Fashionable retro dresses.
Handy information about the life of Amelia Earhart.
I don’t feel the “drama”, but I do feel a bit of the romance.
The whole film lacks of charms.
Even brutality cannot break something that is really precious, it’s what this movie all about. Precious’ life doesn’t goes along with her name. She is raped by her own father until she pregnant and gives birth to two children from him. Her mother is a cruel woman, who’s jobless, lazy and poor.
No matter how hard life is, the young Precious never really complain. When it’s about her time to breakdown, she’s lucky to have found best friends who loves her.
This film is okay. I like the scripts but the plots are average.
Lot of nasty words used by Precious’ mother, those words even hurt meĀ when I heard her saying them in the film. Precious doesn’t talk much on the film, but her narration leads us the way from the beginning to the end. It’s not her words that touch the audience, but it’s about how cruel her momma treat her. Big applause to Monique who plays the role as her momma, no wonder she won Oscar for this role.
If I have to describe this film: It’s simply something “precious” to watch.
Study is not about memorizing theories and rephrasing them on the test’s paper. It’s not study, it’s calledĀ memorizing.
Study is not about aiming good grades, because it will be stressful, yet it’s supposed to be fun.
Study is not about being the best, because there’s no such thing as “the best”, there always be greater people than we are.
Study is the process of understanding something.
Study is the process of enriching our self with inspirations, new thoughts and new ideas.
study is the process to enable our self in creating something useful for others.
It took me years to finally understand the true meaning of study. Thank god it wasn’t too late
