Martin Lawrence
[pic]

Martin Lawrence returns as FBI agent Malcolm Turner, who again goes deep undercover as "Big Momma." The FBI has learned that a computer software developer named Tom Fuller has created a computer virus that allows access to classified US government files. Fuller is planning to sell the virus to terrorist organizations all over the world. Upon hearing this, the FBI's best chance is Fuller's wife. So Malcolm goes undercover as Big Momma in order to pose as Mrs. Fuller's nanny and as always, Big Momma turns the house upside down.

Undercover Agent Malcolm Turner is back and this time he's out to expose the suspected designer of a deadly computer "worm". That would allow outside forces access to government intelligence files. But unfortunately, the only way the agent can get next to the worm's creator is to access the programmer's Orange County. At home is Malcolm a new "nanny" to Fuller and his wife, Leah's children: Toddler Andrew and his two older sisters, Carrie and Molly. This means that Malcolm must bring the bad guys down and prove that a woman's work is never done! All this while Malcolm secretly trying to dig up information on Tom's computer virus. Of course, Malcolm's hardest and most comical task is staying in Big Momma character. This means physical and vocal transformations. Along the way, "Big Momma" also helps bring the fractured Fuller clan back together and, in turn, Malcolm develops a newfound appreciation for his own family, which includes stepson Trent and expectant pregnant wife Sherrie. Malcolm also learns he can strike a successful balance between his work and home responsibilities, without short changing either side in the

    Spike Lee

    Spike Lee is one of the many directors who in my opinion always want to keep people alert. Lee is a film director, producer, writer and actor. He is with no question a very intelligent man that believes he has a responsibility to try and explain the world of black folks and other minorities in their most genuine form. When it comes to making films, he always fulfils his responsibility to show the behind the scenes black personnel who are underrepresented in an industry dominated by white people. I already in agree with his view on how he makes his films. In a quote from an online source, Spike Lee says, "I've never really thought of myself as a spokesperson for 35 million African Americans.... All my views have been solely my views, and I think that there are African American people who agree with me, but we also have African Americans who don't agree. I feel as though Spike Lee makes movies to capture people eyes and make them think and see what is really going on in a way. My favorite two films by him are 25th Hour and Do the Right Thing. Two very controversial films that have something to say to every race and creed. Spike Lee has made name for himself and a pretty good one at that.…

    Dope Film Analysis

    • 1008 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Whether it is the narrator explaining that Malcolm is a geek, or his awkward exchanges with people, the film constantly reinstates the fact that Malcolm is a geek: awkwardness, intelligence, lack of confidence, and simply different from the crowd. Although once the movie progresses and Malcolm establishes himself as a respected drug dealer, this is when the dualism of his character is shown. New elements of his character are shown and established during this breaking point in the film. At this point in the film, Malcolm is now confident in himself. He performs live with his band, punches a gangster, and blackmails a drug lord. The duality of Malcolm’s nature is best perceived in the scene where he addresses the audience about his college application essay. Malcolm talks about two students in his college essay: student A and student B. Student A is described as getting great grades and a perfect SAT score, while student B is described as coming from an underdeveloped neighborhood, not knowing his father, raised by a single mother, and selling drugs. The students are complete opposites and Malcolm uses this analogy to tell the audience about his sense of duality. He perceives himself as dual opposites: a geek and a drug…

    Friar Lawrence is a character in William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet that served as a mentor for Romeo and Juliet, the two star-crossed lovebirds. He served as a mentor and a friend throughout the entire play, and because of it, his life was forever changed. In the beginning of the story, we meet the friar and can see that he is a happy go lucky guy, frollicking through the fields and giving advice to Romeo. However, the friar has to deal with quite a bit more than a two lovestruck teens, and it changes him for the worse. By the end of Act V, all of the drama that had taken place had taken it’s toll on Friar Lawrence and he was very upset and seemed to have been broken by the events of the week. The first time that we hear him speak, he is throwing out metaphors and personification about plants, seeming very creative and caring a lot about what he was doing. The climax of the story is where we find the Friar at his most passionate. He is angered by the actions of the teens and it shows in the way that he speaks. At the end however, his use of language wilts to what can be described as careless and lacking emotion.…

    Malcolm, portrayed by Frankie Muniz, is the protagonist of the series. He is five years younger than his oldest brother Francis, two years younger than his older brother Reese, four years older than his younger brother Dewey, and about 15 years older than his youngest brother Jamie. In the first episode of the series, he is discovered to be a child prodigy and immediately moved from his regular class into the 'Krelboynes', a class for gifted students. Despite his high intelligence, he still gets into mischief either alongside or working against his brothers (in particular, Reese), although he becomes more self-absorbed and egotistical in the later seasons as he goes through puberty. Malcolm, like Reese, is not very popular. However, he has had a number of girlfriends during the series run. Even though he is very intelligent, Malcolm has a short temper, can be easily manipulated and also has problems containing his opinion about himself. Malcolm also occasionally serves as the voice of reason, and does have a conscience, (for instance, despite emotionally manipulating a grieving Hal to buy him a car in the episode "Hal Grieves," when the time comes to make the purchase he finds he can't go through with it). In the series finale, it is revealed that Lois intended him to have a hard life, knowing that he is destined to assume the role of President of the United States; she wants him to remember where he came from to get there and try to help families like his own when he assumes the office. Malcolm eventually comes to terms with his future, after being unable to tell Lois he can't do it. In the series finale, Malcolm begins taking classes at Harvard University.…

By skipping town, her correctional officer Travis Lehman, played by Tommy Lee Jones, is on her trail. He finds out what she is after and teams up with the local police to track her down. Once in New Orleans, Parsons finds the new Jonathan Deberaux and lets him know that she found him. She tells him that all she wants is her son and he agrees. He sets her up, however, at the cemetery by pretending that her son is there, but he knocks her out and puts her in a casket in a catacomb. Travis finds Libby after she escapes but instead of taking her in, he helps her to finish what she was there to do.

    Imagine a scenario in which: a) you trust the leader of a contigency, like a president or a king, b) this person offers you misguided advice, c) you suffer greatly as a result of said advice, and d) this man or woman you trust continues to hurt you with more egregious errors. Perhaps you are thinking of George W. Bush, when he sent a country in recession to war on credit two times in a row. Maybe my hypothetical situation is reminiscent of poor parenting; e.g., a father works late in the office for five consecutive days, but keeps forgetting to transport his daughter from daycare. Now, I cannot imagine that Bush spent large sums on his presidential campaign with the intent of poorly managing the United States. Likewise, the hypothetical father who neglects his child probably wanted to make more money for his family.…

    Martin Eden

    • 2423 Words
    • 10 Pages

    Martin Eden is Jack London’s semi-autobiographical novel, which gives a very vivid and detailed portrait of the hero, from an impoverished and uneducated sailor to a successful writer, who was inspired by the elegance and knowledge of the upper class girl Ruth and thereafter kept toiling himself in learning and writing and eventually got acclamation but meanwhile lost his hope in life and drowned himself in the sea. Jack London has read many philosophers’ works, among which Friedrich Nietzsche exerted a great influence upon him. Hence his Nietzschean character Martin Eden. A superman himself, Martin has a strong will to power, to transcend his laboring class, to win Ruth’s love for beauty’s sake, to show his contempt for the hypocrisy of the bourgeoisie, to be the master herding the masses of slave morality, but after he achived what he pursued all the time ,he lost himself.It is Martin…
