e-Portfolio 3: Movie Review

I've read somewhere that the topic for this week portfolio can be either stuff review or WA comment. I decided to take this space to write about a movie that I watched at the first time I came to SELF.

The movie title, which we all have heard about, is "The Ice Age". Some of my friends advised me not to go to learning centers (like SELF) to watch movies. I agree that reading articles and textbooks is good, but they should also ask themselves why there are such these movies at SELF. Besides the listening skill, movies could teach viewers some meaningful lessons.

"The Ice Age" tells a story about a young male mammoth and his friend, a sloth, who accidentally involved in a wicked plan of a tiger group. With his natural love, the sloth decided to keep the human baby after witnessing her mother's death. On the way returning the baby to her father, the two friends met a tiger who first worked for the tiger group but later helped the two. After all, they realised that the conflict between animals and humans is just a misapprehension, and that they were all in a common sense: happiness of being sympathetic... Going through the story, there's a lot of laughs, but lessons lie behind. Personally, I realised that not a first glance but long time contact will identify the person we are going along with. Perhaps we'll be able to recognize the real value of a person (a friend) in such a strange situation.

I planned to write more about the movie, but I'd better let interested people watch it by themselves. Sit back and enjoy during your free time!
