Across The Universe Review

     The movie "Across The Universe" was a good musical, it relates to people and catches attention easily. The music is good for people who enjoy the Beetles, but if you are not a fan of that genre you may choose otherwise when deciding to watch this film.

     In this film the characters all become close during the Vietnam War. Lucy (Evan Rachel Wood), and her brother Max (Joe Anderson) come across new challenges and new friends such as Jude (Jim Sturgess), Sadie (Dana Fuchs), Jo-Jo (Martin Luther), and Prudence (T.V. Carpio) they come together and accept the challenges that come upon them.

     When the characters come together and really express how they feel and show the effects of the war on their lives and how everyone is different, the director did and good job relating to reality. Jude and Max become close and prove to be true friends and that shows the audience what a true friend really means to someone.

     "Across The Universe" really was a catch. It is easy to relate to and catches the attention of the viewer, although, if you are not a fan of musicals or of the Beetles choose wisely when planning on seeing this film. I thought overall it was a good film and really enjoyable, the cast and director did a great job filming and singing in the movie.

Rembrance of things present

     Some things I would like to remember about myslef now in twenty years as someone who values friendship. I'm really close with my friends and family and hope it stays that way. Although I know some friends will come and go I do see myself staying friends with some of my closests friends right now.

     I see myself staying involved in swimming until I can't swim anymore. I have been swimming for almost eleven years now andni don't plan on stopping until I reach the Olympic level someday. Hopefully I can become a master swimming and continue to compete in swimming for a log time. I want to always remember my teammates and our accomplishments. I will always ne proud of what we have gotten done together.

    I want to remember school and lunch dates. I hope to look back and think it was a fun ride. I want to be able to look back and be proud of who I was, who I became and who helped pathe the path I took. Also who and what made me the person I am at the time.
