Media Journal Feb.2 - Feb.6

For my journal, I will talk about the movie I watched this week. The movie I watched was Click with Adam Sandler. I haven't seen it before due to pretty crappy reviews from everyone I know. I decided to give it a try while channel surfing on Wednesday. After watching the movie, I came to the realization that this movie was not all that great and I probably should have heeded my friends' advice. The concept of the movie didn't really fit me well, I am not really into the movies that are above and beyond fiction, for example, a guy with a remote that can warp through time and change his pigment to the Incredible Hulk. I usually lean more towards the non-fiction or documentary. The one thing I noticed though was how much he changed from before the remote to after. At first, he couldn't get his family the nicer things in life but, was there for them physically. After time with the remote he was able to buy his family whatever they wanted i.e. son's dream wedding but, lost his wife in the process to another man and was not there physically at all which is evident when he flashes back to the last time he saw his father before he passed. I was able to see a message in the movie which to me was money can buy you alot of things but even in this day and age, family is what really matters and there is no way around that, money can't buy you a happy family and work won't make you a happier man.
