Disney Soul movie review
|
Just finished watching the movie - Soul. As the ending song stated, - it is aaight. Does give good insight about the meaning of life. Namely: life is not so much about completing goals and items off a dream list but rather the comprehensive collection of experiences that ultimately reflect a life well lived. I did find the absence with respect to Jesus Christ in the afterlife scenes a bit troubling; however, I understand why as this film was primarily intended for mass consumption. Therefo...

I recently had the priviledge of watching the movie "12 Years A slave", and I must honestly say that no other film has broken my heart so many times in one showing as this one. 12 Years a Slave is a 2013 British-American historical drama film and an adaptation of the 1853 memoir Twelve Years a Slave by Solomon Northup, a New York State-born free African American man who was kidnapped in Washington, D.C., in 1841 and sold into slavery.(Source: Wikipedia) Each seen was riddl...

Last night, we rented the movie, 'Courageous,' from redbox and boy were we surprised. That movie was so good, and taught us so many life lessons. Namely, a fatherless house is one of the most devastating factors to the increase in gangs in the world. During one scene, it was said, "A recent study was done on the increase in violent gang activity. In almost every case, each gang member had a similar attribute: runaways, drop outs, kids on drugs, and teens in prison. That attribu...

One word: Slow. Plot took too long to move and I found myself falling asleep in the middle of the movie. I once saw the end of the movie at a drive-in, but now I had the opportunity to rent it in the comfort of my own home. Although I couldn't sit through the entire middle part of it, I was still able to obtain a lesson from it. Namely, we should imitate those kid's sense of determination in the face of all obstacles. Despite the fact that the world was falling apart around the...

Keax:
A man of Asian decent with a dark blue hoodie came to my door the other night. He kept knocking on my door, so I asked, "Who is it?" He asked, "Is this Nicolas Joachim?" I asked again, "Who is it?" He asked again, "Is this Nicolas Joachim?" Then my mind started to gravitate towards a movie that I recently watched, namely: Kill Bill Vol 1 & 2. As a result, I thought to myself tha...

Why do we think so little of kids? (Mark 10:13, 14) Some have even gone to the point of trying to convince them that being bad is the best way to grow up to be successful. I've noticed some children's movies carrying this theme of Villains as superhero's, such as: Megamind. I enjoyed the movie because it reminded me of myself. I was Megamind. As a matter a fact, sometimes I still act like him: thinking that I'm smarter than God to my detriment. Like Nas said, "Some people are t...

Which one is leading you? Let me give you a hint: Do your words and actions currently reflect what someone would do if Jesus was trying to portray himself through them? Like the Apostle Paul said, "Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit. So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life an...
