TRAVEL TO MOVIES: VAMPIRE ACADEMY

Director: Mark Waters
Cast: Zoey Deutch , Lucy Fry , Danila Kozlovsky

Plot: Rose Hathaway is a dhampir, half-vampire and half-human, who is training to be a guardian at St Vladimir's Academy along with many others like her. There are good and bad vampires in their world: Moroi, who co-exist peacefully among the humans and only take blood from donors, and also possess the ability to control one of the four elements - water, earth, fire or air; and Strigoi, blood-sucking, evil vampires who drink to kill. Rose and other dhampir guardians are trained to protect Moroi and kill Strigoi throughout their education. Along with her best friend Princess Vasilisa Dragomir, a Moroi in possession of the almost unheard of element called spirit that forged a nigh unbreakable bond, Rose must run away from St Vladimir's, in order to protect Lissa from those who wish to harm the princess and use her for their own means.

My Movie Review: The movie is exciting because it's about good versus bad vampires in high school. I have fun knowing the Dhampir protecting Moroi with Strigoi Vampires and flirtation with their campus crush. The movie gave me fantasy about myself as a Dhampir Vampire and studying at St Vladimir's Academy. I just love vampire stories, the flowing blood makes me thirsty, the fangs makes me feel alive and the mysteries gives me chills.
My Favorite Term: Insubordinate

It's the act of willfully disobeying your superior. Refusing to perform an action that is unethical or illegal is not insubordination; neither is refusing to perform an action that is not within the scope of authority of the person issuing the order.

My Movie Review: The movie fit its title, some people that are right for each other met in a wrong circumstance but able to find the balance at end. When we first arrived at the cinemas, it was so dark and silent, all seats were empty but suddenly love couples and friends starts to arrived and change the mood. I don't like the main poster I taught it was ugly so I search for other poster and thankful I found one. To top it all I enjoyed the movie, it was easy, breezy and unconventional story set in a romantic place with stunning views.
My Favorite Characters: Snow & Balls- I love cats, white and fat ones are so cute!

My Movie Review: The movie is structured and concise, I had a good time watching it! Robocop is build to eliminate crime, to chase bad guys and to serve as hope to people. Trailer asked Whose in-control Man or Machine? The answer is Omni Corp, the people who works there can shut down Robocop when they want. His body parts may be gone but his mind and heart still manage to fight. Robocop Sequel is want I like to see in the future.

My Movie Review: The movie is fun and young but some scenes were too fast I wish they were longer. This shows how some relationship starts nowadays, for some with a hooked up, for some friends to lovers and for some old relationship starting over again. There maybe scenes not too be shown cause there too exposed but I think this is how some teens met there match with those awkward moments fun to shared with your friends.
My Favorite Term: Awkward Moment

An awkward situation is embarrassing and difficult to deal with. An awkward moment or position is uncomfortable and clumsy. Someone who feels awkward behaves in a shy way.
