Summarised Review

This incredible story line demonstrates a prime example of failure at the hands of the so-called 'Justice System', followed by serious consequences that they must face as a result. A motion-picture packed with perfectly placed plot twists, this is an essential watch for analytical thrill seekers who can handle a bit of gore.

Themes explored: logic, survival, loss, the race against time, analytical thinking, government and politics.

How it was watched: Laptop, Amazon Prime

Platform:             Pros- Easy to rewind, fast forward and resume playback

                                     - Brightness & Volume, easily adjusted for different scenes

                   Cons-Some scenes were much louder than others, so the volume has to be                                   adjusted accordingly.

                                     - The visible quality of the film appeared to be quite low at times.

Do The Right Thing Soundtrack

Plans:

Sounds:

• Fire crackling
• Papers rustling in the air
• Footsteps: running & walking
• Shouts: Single & Chorus
• Glass breaking
• Spillage

Music:

• Fast-paced music for the rioting scene
• Down-hearted R n B/Jazz sound/plucking of guitar strings for beginning

Summarised Review

This action packed piece of cinema has the perfect balance of discovery, adventure and good-natured humour for viewers of all ages. The fact that anything is possible is demonstrated when even the most strong-headed, "expert" Doctor becomes a believer in the mystic-arts, and embarks on a spiritually and emotionally-healing journey, that also entails protecting the world from inter-galactic threats.

Themes explored: Extra-terrestrial life, sorcery, healing, medicine.

How it was watched: Mobile Phone, Netflix
Platform:             Pros- Easy to resume playback. 
                                     - Volume, easily adjusted for different scenes

                   Cons- The rewind button made the film jump a little too                                                                far back, and the screen was too small for comfortable viewing. Some                                scenes were a little too dark for the small screen and the brightness                                    was not easily adjusted.
