I work for a movie company. But I was never a big fan of movies until last summer in 2023 when some colleague and friend I met in NYC told me that movies disseminate various cultures and shape lives. Since then, I have started to watch more movies and will continue to do so. Therefore, it would be fun to list all the movies I've watched since the middle of last year, arranged chronologically according to my viewing dates. And I will keep adding movies to the list in the future! (Note: ** in a date means I can not figure out the exact date.)
| Movie Name | Release Date | Watch Date | Theater | Distributed by | Short Comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apollo 13 | 1995-06-30 | 2024-05-23 | Friends get-together | Universal Pictures | A story of a successful failure. I was amazed by how they managed to stay calm and complete their work under immense stress and uncertainty. This ability is crucial for achieving success in life! |
| IF | 2024-05-17 | 2024-05-17 | AMC | Paramount Pictures | A heartwarming and healing movie for kids and families. Each child grows up with an imaginary friend (IF) born from their dreams and imagination. An IF can take any form and possess any skills the child desires. They can see and accompany each other. However, as children grow up, they often become busy with life and lose connection with their IF. This movie tells the story of an 11-year-old girl who helps IFs reconnect with their grown-up owners by rekindling cherished childhood memories. |
| Chariots of Fire | 1981-10-09 | 2024-05-16 | Friends get-together | Allied Stars, Enigma Productions, Warner Bros., The Ladd Company, Warner Brothers | This is a great story about passion, faith, and commitment! Abraham was able to win the gold medal in Olympics in the end after trying very hard and the training day and night to achieve his goal and realize his stream. He succeeded and became the winner. However, this is just a story about the winner. What about other runners who didn't win the game? My friend provided a good point. This is just the story about this guy. Other people had their own life stories, and they won in their ways. |
| Unfrosted | 2024-05-03 | 2024-05-09 | Home(Netflix) | Netflix | The jokes in the movie do not make much sense to me. I decided to watched it because of Seinfeld but was kinda disappointed. It was a relaxing comedy movie. You barely need to use your brain to watch it. |
| Call Me by Your Name | 2018-01-19 | 2024-05-04 | Home(Prime Video) | Sony Pictures Classics, Warner Bros. Pictures, United International Pictures, Memento Films | This is a quiet and romantic movie. My favorite lines are: "We rip out so much of ourselves to be cured of things faster that we go bankrupt by the age of 30 and have less to offer each time we start with someone new. But to make yourself feel nothing so as not to feel anything. What a waste!" |
| Begin Again | 2014-06-27 | 2024-04-26 | Home(P+) | The Weinstein Company | I love this movie, the story, and the music. It's a simple and warm story about self-growth and passion. The background in New York City reminds me of the good times I spent there last summer. |
