Monsters Vs. Aliens Review

Monsters Vs. Aliens is a entertaining movie for kids but family can enjoy this animated film too. Even though the end is a little boring in general this a god movie. The voice of the main characters “Susan Murphy” –Reese Witherspoon- “Dr. Cockroach” –Hugh Laurie- “B.O.B” –Seth Rogen- “The Missing Link” –Will Arnett- and finally “Gallaxhar” -Rainn Wilson-

The story of this movie begins when Susan is about to get married. The wedding day while she is waiting to enter the church, a big meteorite hit her and infused her quantonium that is a powerful element that causes her to grow a enormous size. Everybody in the wedding is surprised and Susan is captured by members of the government and put into a secret government place. In this place Susan meets to other monsters that have also been capture by the government, they are: Dr. Cockroach who is a scientist with the head of a cockroach, B.O.B a gelatinous blob that is indestructible, the missing link and a big monster called Insectosaurus.

One day a big robot which has one big eye in the middle of its head invades the Earth and the president of the United Stated try to talk with the robot to negotiate, but this idea not worked. In his desperation to save the Earth the president made a deal with the director of the monsters to combat the alien robot and save the world from imminent destruction.

Now Susan has to learn to accept his new life far away from his family and her future husband, and learn that with her new life she may save the Earth to the alien invasion and help to many people. This is the opportunity for the Susan and the monsters to regain their freedom and they need work together to achieve.

Monsters vs. Aliens are a god movie that the whole family can enjoy whit a big jar of pop corn.

BLACKBERRYS IN CLASS

DO YOU THINK STUDENTS SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO USED THEIR BB IN CLASS?

The Blackberrys is a cell phone with many useful tools. I think that the students should be allowed to use their BlackBerrys in class but with some limits. I think that talk by Blackeberry while the teacher is explaining something or just talking about something is a lack of respect whit him. However, I think that sometimes is necessary use the BlackBerrys, sometimes you use it for cheak the time, read an important message or just say something important to someone else.

For that reason I think that the use of BlackBerryS in class should be allowed for the students provided they be aware that they are in the class because they need to learn and they are who lose if don’t pay attention. I think that every student should know what their responsibilities are, and they don’t need a sergeant teacher that say all the time “Hey! plis put away the blackberrys or turn off the Blackberrys”. The problem is not for the teacher, the problem is for the student.

So, I think that every person, teacher or not, deserves respect and for that reason the students should put away the blackberrys while a person is talking and use it only for necessary things.
