Think or Laugh?


Particularly, a movie or a film is considered by most of the people a vehicle of entertaining but it can be used in many different ways. Nowadays the movies have been used as another media for communicating many things, especially important messages for “reflection” which is a better choice. However, the real question is do we prefer fun movies than the serious ones?

Those “serious” movies are somewhat special, because it lefts an important message on those who watched it. That message has the power to catch the public attention in a particular way obviously depending on the theme that develops the movie. For example movies like The Pianist, based on real events that happened on the holocaust of the second world wide war, was very popular and make the public think seriously about those horrible events, and how unnecessary it was to kill that amount of innocent people. Movies like that are designed to be serious.

However, the serious movie also can be attractive an entertaining to the audience. Those movies that touch controversial themes, themes that were untouchable in the past by de society are very popular in the audience. Those topics bring the people to the cinema. In addition, the themes could be very deep that catches people in the way that they do not what to miss any part of it. For example and is a very common one, Titanic, this movie lefts a wonderful message in every single person that watch’s it. Its not how many time you laugh are the cinema that measures how interesting or entertaining a movie is, it is what you will remember about it. That is the real intention of a “serious” movie.

Its not that you have to prefer serious movies, have fun sometimes it also goof, the reason is that with a funny, you will laugh for sure, bit just during the time it last the movie. But a serious movie, like the independent ones, cull give you a message even for your whole life or even change something on your personality or your way of living.

To summarize everything its better to prefer serious movies, because you can have fun and learn something, but is not that you have to see the all the time, is also good to laugh occasionally.
