  1. My favourite film now is "RANGO". It is about a chameleon that is lost in the Nevada desert. Here he he has to solve the  mistery of the theft of water in a far west towm.
    I like this film because
    it is about cowboys, the far west saloons, villans, sherifs...
    The
    characters  in the film are computer-animated animals which are made very very well so  it is very realist.The film has action between the villans and the sherif.
    This film is veeeeeeery good. I like it very much.

  1. My favorite film is "Underworld the Rise of the Lycans" because is a story of a war between the vampires and the lycans (werewolves). The vampires have captured many of the lycans and the rest of the lycans have to rescue them.There are four films about the "Underworld". My favorite film of them is the third one. It's different because this takes place in the middle age. The other films are not in the middle age. The soundtrack of the four films is rock and I like it too. I also really enjoy the battles between the werewolves and the vampires.

Very good work

    s with his grandparents. His grandmother once told him a history. She said that in the garden of the house existed little humans that lived there. The boy believed the history. The day after he became small and he saw the minimoys.In the garden he lived a lot of adventures.
