Part 2&3  A movie you watched recently and would like to watch again答案及解析_雅思口语练习「新东方雅思官方网校」

I watched the movie Prey, which is the latest movie in the series of Predator movies – based on the idea of a strong and predatory evil alien coming from another planet and landing on earth, in the jungle or wilderness. It's kind of scary, though I wouldn't call it a horror film, as such. It's more of an intense action thriller, really. Basically, in Prey there is a north American Indian girl, who is out in the woodlands hunting rabbits and she suddenly sees this strange phenomenon in the sky – strange lights like an alien space craft above the clouds – something like this. Then, a few days later she sees huge footprints in the woodlands, and strange things start to happen. Eventually she actually sees the alien fighting with a bear and realizing that there is this awful creature out there… the creature notices her and chases her. She manages to hide but eventually it finds her, and the rest of the film is about how she tricks the alien and eventually kills it. It's a movie that really keeps you on the edge of your seat… it's thrilling, and the scenery is impressive too. I would like to watch it again because I was watching it online on my computer, and frankly, this kind of movie is much better on the big screen, so I'd like to see it in the cinema. 

Watching films at home is much less atmospheric than watching them in the cinema. The cinema gives you an all-round powerful experience, both in terms of audio and visuals, whereas watching a film at home is much less dramatic. Basically because you’ve got a smaller screen – a very small screen often – and a nothing like the kind of surround sound speaker systems they have in modern cinemas. So, yeah, a cinema is a much more powerful experience, and you can also eat snacks, like popcorn and make it feel like a much more special occasion too. 


Yes, I think that a director should choose good actors and actresses in order for a movie to be a success. But they not only should have the right kind of skills – and be good actors, of course – but they should also be passionate about acting in the movie itself. If they don’t like the film, or the plot, or the role they are going to be acting in, then they are less likely to do a good job and help make the film a success.

Fewer people are going to the cinema to watch movies in my country because the movies are now quite poor. They have basically spent a lot of money advancing special effects, but the plots are terrible – well, in my opinion – the plots are weak compared to the Chinese films that were coming out in the early 1990s – those had feeling, sincerity and told the stories of the lives of normal, real people. This new slew of movies are more superficial, like Hollywood blockbuster-style films. Also, people are lazy and just watch films on their phones and tablets today – not as many people go to the cinema as before. It’s a shame really.
