Movie Review 5


School of Rock


I watched School of Rock in the library of KGU with Haruka. We watched this movie in English with subtitle of English. I laughed a lot and I think this movie is comedy.


School of Rock’s main character is Dewey Finn, who is a guitar player but one day he is dismissed from his band. He wants to be in his band but he can’t. He is shocked and also he needs money to pay for his rent and his bills. He doesn’t have a job and then his friend, Ned Schneebly, a school teacher, is called for asking a temporary work in a private school and Dewey pretends to be Ned and accepts the job.


Dewey can’t teach so he always give his students free time but some students ask he why he doesn’t teach them because they go to school to study and their parents pay a lot of money. However, he always thinks rock and he doesn’t teach his students any subjects but one day, he watches his students playing instruments well and he has good idea. He wants to make a band with his students and then he and his students start school life with rock.


First, he decides members of the band and he gives other students, who aren’t members of the band, various roles. His students don’t accept it but generally they accept it. He and his students always play instruments, sing, and learn about rock; however, Rosalie Mullins, the president of this private school, doesn’t know that they make a band and play instruments everyday.


Dewey and his students decide to take part in one contest for band. They go to the audition meeting place for taking part in this contest but it finishes. They are shocked but its director doesn’t see their performance. They think and have a good idea. They act like patient and this director sympathizes and they can take part in the contest.


Rosalie Mullins always forces her students to study hard and ask her school’s teachers to teach perfectly. She is earnest and teachers don’t ask her out with them, but Dewey asks her to go out and they drink and talk a lot. Rosalie Mullins doesn’t like festival like band because she feels pressure from her students’ parents. Dewey likes rock and wants to get opportunity to announce his band so he talks her about rock. They are in a bar and they can listen to a song. This song is Rosalie Mullins’s favorite song and she drinks so her feeling is good. Dewey asks her to give them the opportunity to announce their band’s performance and she allows it.


One day, Dewey’s friend, Ned Schneebly, gets a lot of money from one private school and he doesn’t know why he gets this money from it. This money is for Ned but he doesn’t work for this school because Dewey pretends to be Ned and work. In this time, Ned knows this fact and he is surprised and can’t believe. Dewey asks Ned not to tell this fact and Dewey goes to parents’ meeting with Rosalie Mullins. Dewey talks about his students’ parents that his students are very good. Then a security guard comes to him and he is caught. Ned tries to keep being secret of this fact but his girlfriend asks him to tell this fact. Therefore it comes out that he isn’t Ned and he doesn’t have teaching certificate. Rosalie Mullins, his students, and his students’ parents are surprised.


He lost his job and he sleeps at his home. Then his students come there and ask him to go to the contest. His students think it is unbelievable that Dewey isn’t a teacher but he teaches band so they want to take part in the contest for him. They go to the hall of the contest. Ned, Rosalie Mullins, and the students’ parents know it and they also go to the hall of the contest. Their performance is very good and comes to life. It succeeds but they can’t win. They are sad but the audience calls for an encore from them. It makes them happy and they enjoy their performance.


After the contest, Dewey can’t teach his students at the school but the students come to his house and he teaches rock and they enjoy rock music.


In this movie, Jack Black plays Dewey Finn, Mike White plays Ned Schneebly, Sarah Silverman plays Ned’s girlfriend, and Joan Cusack plays Rodalie Mullins.


I think School of Rock is good movie because it gave me dream and it made me laugh. I think children in this movie are cute and they play instruments very well so their band is like professional. It surprised me and I want to play guitar like them. When I’m depressed, I want to watch this movie again because, I think, people who watch this movie become positive. Therefore I think this movie is good.

In the Clair

I went to IEON MALL Kumamto Clair to get fake nails for Coming-of-age ceremony with my friend, Mari. I could choose many kinds of decoration so I thought a lot; however, I chose very nice decoration. I'm looking forward to put them on my nails. After it, Mari and I watched many clothes and we bought clothes. I got two pants and one jacket. They were not expensive and they were good. We often meet in my part-time job but we always can't talk a lot so today we talked a lot and it was fun.

Dinosaur's Day


There were many kinds of dinosaurs in the earth, for example, Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus, Ornithomimus, Edmontosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus, or Ankylosaurus. All kind of dinosaurs live near river.

Triceratopses are big and strong and they have three spiky horns on their head and they have a bony frill on their neck. Most of dinosaurs are scared of Tyrannosaurus because Tyrannosaurus eats other dinosaurs but Triceratops has nice horns so they can fight with Tyrannosaurus.


I'm not familiar with dinosaurs but this book has many pictures so I can distinguish one kind of dinosaurs from other kind of them. It was good.

Yakiniku


I went to Ikkyu to eat dinner with my family. I heard Ikkyu was very good and its meat was good so I wanted to go there. Tonight, my parents, my brother, and I have free time so we decided to go to Ikkyu. The atmosphere of Ikkyu is comfortable and I liked it. We ate many kinds of meats and they were tasty. I thought it wasn't expensive. I recommend this restaurant so if you have time, you should go there.

Animals in Danger




There are more than thirty million species of the animal in the world but some of these species disappear every year and we never see them again. If all animals disappear in the world, what happen to us? I think we can't live without animals. We are given many things from animals so we have to help them because people and animals live in one world and protecting animals is protecting our world.


A million years ago, there were many species of animals than there are now. It is natural that some species disappear but recently its speed is faster than before. Weather is changing and it affects their extinction. Also, making new roads, moving rivers, or taking away trees affects their extinction. Animals are in danger because human beings damage their ecology and because of natural accidents.


Some dolphins live in rivers and some live in the sea. Recently, environment of the water changed. Most of river and sea became dirty so dolphins can't see well in the water. There is much noise in the water so they can't talk with other dolphins. This changing is by human beings.



There are birds which are needed to help by people, for example, Kakapos. They can't live with people or other animals. They can't have many babies and they can't fly like other birds. People protect them and they prepare quiet place for Kakapos. Then they can make new house and can live freely.


In the world, there are many kinds of animals but recently many animals are in danger. People have to think it and we must act for them. If we aren't change our life style, maybe many kinds of animals will die. Animals are very important for people and our life. Also, I think I have to think about animal and their life.

Dinner and Karaoke



I went to Furusu to eat dinner with Mayuka, Mari, Asuka, and Kouichi. Mari, Asuka, Mayuka are my best friends since junior high school and Kouichi is Mari's boyfriend. We talked a lot and drank. I'm weak to drink so my face became red as soon as I drank. We ate Nabe. It was tasty and its soup is good. The clerks of Furusu are very kind and nice so I recommend Furusu if you come to Nagamine. After Furusu, we went to karaoke. I couldn't sing well but other people could sing well. I had very good time with them!! I want to go out with them again.
