John is an alien from another planet and had moved to earth. Each of them has a number and they all have a protector accompanies them. Their enemies called Mogadarians have been sent to destroy him after killing three other kids before him with the same abilities.
I was excited to see this movie as a lot of action and someone with powers. In addition, Sam finally realizing his dad's fantasy becoming a reality and his desire to find him made sense. Also, when number four’s protector was died, he was so sadly. At that moment, I was so touched by their good acting. The characters were charming. I enjoyed the plot, even though, at some points, it did become quite tense (there was a part where the guy was thrown onto the school window, it makes my friend and I jumped).
On the whole, it is a very entertaining movie and I think this movie is worth seeing in theaters as the action scenes truly make the experience. In short, I Am Number Four is a great movie and the action was impressive. Of course, the acting was done well.

Mercy Killing
Mercy Killing is defined as the killing of one person by another and it is classified to whether a person was informed into two types: voluntary and non-voluntary. Mercy Killing is an immense controversy in the society, i.e. not every one can accept it. Nevertheless, Mercy Killing is still legal in some countries. For example, Holland is widely regarded as one of the world's most civilized countries and active euthanasia is legal there. Anyhow, every country has various opinions; some are in favor of mercy killing while others are opposed to. From the oppositional opinion of Mercy Killing, the meaning of life is "to live"; however, in terms of law, a human is not allow to be killed by another and those people said the Mercy Killing is a form of suicide assisted by a doctor.
Actually, I agree with Mercy Killing based on voluntary situation as it is often overlooked that patients have the common law right to refuse any medical treatment. For my opinion, dying patients should have the right to order their doctors not to start or continue medical treatment. Of course, the doctor is to save people's life, but if a patient is suffering from a serious disease and is going to die after three months, a patient is in unaffordable pain and has no hope to survive. Is a person allowed to kill by himself? For example, my co-worker's father was in a vegetative state since one year ago. His family members have been sad and suffering and they felt father has lost his dignity in the sickbed. They all feel unbearable and reluctant. Whether it is better to relieve from suffering? In addition, I disagree with Mercy Killing based on non-voluntary situation. For example, if a patient was brain dead i.e. he or she can not make a decision by themselves and their relatives would like to get a large inheritance. Then, the decision was made by these guys who just wanted to get money. They could very easily open the door to active euthanasia. That's why I disagree of it.
In short, Mercy Killing is an immense controversy in various countries. There can always be disagreements about what is rational and irrational. I think each of us should be able to make our own medical decisions. Thus, wise merciful deaths should be permitted and supported.

Black Swan
Nina is a ballerina in a New York City ballet company whose life is completely consumed with dance. She lives with her retired ballerina mother who supports her as a professional ambition. When artistic director chooses Nina as the new opening main actress for new season. She treats Lily, a new dancer, as a competitor. Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace, and the Black Swan with guilty and sensuality. Nina as the White Swan perfectly, but, Lily is the better of the Black Swan. When Nina begins to get more in touch with Lily, She always felt Lily would like to destroy her. However, Nina's a perfectionist let her have hallucinations. Eventually, she even presumed that is was all worth in her end and dies “consentant”.
Actually, I think this kind of people is very pitiful. She requests faultless in her life. She even hurt herself. I think the perfect should be “ just do your best”, is it? In the other side, I am admire Natalie Portman for her good acting as I think it is a big challenge to interpret this film. If you have a chance to see this movies, you will be touched by her good acting.

My third time to visit Korea
I like travel and my dream is to tour twice a year. I hope I could tour Turkey and Italy once available. I visited China, Hong Kong, Korea, Japan, Thailand, and so on…. Every country has its various cultures. I learnt different things from these countries. Sometimes, the same thing doing in foreign and doing in local will bring different feelings i.e. the proverb said “While in Rome, do as the Romans do”.
Among these countries, I had three travel experiences in Korea. My first time to Korea was in 2005 for company tour. It was a boring tourist spots for me as I felt nothing special and nothing attractable there. After then, I decided not to go to Korea again. Nevertheless, one of my best friends called Joan who loves Korea so much. She invited me to travel Seoul in 2008. After my considered, I toured there again for my good friendship with Joan. On that time, I found Korean is friendly and Korean food is tasty thought some people might feel it is too spicy or too salty. In Feb. 2011, we went Seoul, it is my third time to visit this place and I felt this country is keeping progress. Actually, I got a lot in this travel. We planed this journey for our self including make a hotel reservation and so on… the Korean food is still tasty and Korean is still friendly. And, I found there are many Korean can speak Chinese as they had studied in China. So, it became easier to communicate with locals.
Due to national plot, our impress of Korean is cheating. In addition, the event of Taekwondo occurred few months ago, it reinforce people's prejudices. In this travel, one Korean asked us whether it is true that most Taiwanese don’t like Korean? At that moment, we were shocked and felt so embarrassed. In other case, a Korean asked us what relation between mainland and Taiwan? He told us his Chinese teacher in Beijing replied him “it is our interior problem, you needn’t to know.” We don’t answer it. But, we felt so fresh to hear this issue from foreign people. In short, I think a attentive tour can augmentation one’s experience and knowledge.

the Inmate with Former President
Recently, the news is mention about our former president, Chen Shui-bian. The matter is related his inmate had back home and he told to journalist his code name in prison is “5192”. Also, he said the former president is a good guy and so friendly. They share everything in prison that period. For example, Chen Shui-bian tried to call his wife, Wu Shu-jen, but, the manager in his house treated it as trick calls.
We all know Chen Shui-bian was sentenced to a total of 19 years in jail for two corruption cases during his presidency. We all keep reading his news these years. For example, people with Alzheimer’s disease can now use the private residence of former president Chen Shui-bian in Taipei, free of charge. I think it’s at least a meaningful event.
How come the trivial matter like his inmate back home can be a hot news? Maybe, someday after, we will see this guy in some TV talking show. And all is talking about his prison life with prison president. But, did you think why this guy live in the prison?

Korea
Since North Korea's shelling of Yeonpyeong Island in October last year, the South’s military was placed on its highest non-wartime alert. South Korean president Lee Myung-bak warned North Korea that his country would “sternly retaliate against any further provocations”. Two out of three South Koreans believe the country should arm itself with nuclear weapons in response to the North Korean nuclear threat.
In North Korea, the repressive regime staggers under international sanctions and the fallout from a botched currency reform. People shouted "We can't live! Give us fire! Give us rice!” North Korea's economy is essentially paralyzed since a disastrous currency reform in December. Also, Lee Myung-bak administration has suspended aid because the North continued provocations.
The leader of North Korea is just wants to show his power and then getting more power. So, he used the national consciousness of South Korea to provide them food support. Actually, he use these support to develop its own military. Finally, the purpose is to unify the Korea. In short, I think the war is terrible. The sufferers will be civilians only.

No Strings Attached
The film is mention about a guy and girl try to keep their relationship strictly physical, but it's not long before they learn that they want something more.
I like this movie is because it doesn't avoid the storyline is being awkwardly at beginning, but eventually the chemistry between Portman and Kutcher overcomes it. Even though “No Strings Attached “is the sort of movie in which you know exactly how things will turn out five minutes into the story, it makes the predictable journey surprisingly fun and enjoyable. Nothing was a surprise. But overall it was funny and wonderful.
The story is not special, but, it will keep you laughing of the time. Sure the ending is predictable. Some reviews criticizing this film. Maybe they didn't see it in the mind. This movie is a romantic comedy about two friends who decide to take their relationship to the next level without having any of the commitments and duties of being an actual couple, that's what the trailers shown.
