Though misguided, 'V' demands thought By HARMONY WHEELER
TEENS IN THE NEWSROOM

In "V for Vendetta," the character V is known by no other name. With all the opinions that have been circling the film, I would have to say that one of his names is Controversy.
The story follows V (Hugo Weaving), a man who remembers nothing of his past. Tortured by his present, he decides the only thing left to do is escape his prison and seek revenge and justice.

Living in a world where homosexuals and Muslims are locked in concentration camps, and a curfew and the media are used to control the rest of the people, V dons a mask and plans to blow up Parliament.

His plans change, however, when he rescues Evey (Natalie Portman) and teaches her to become fearless. As Evey becomes an unlikely ally to V, she must help in bringing the plot of justice to its finale so the curtain can drop, ending the tyrannical government that controls England.

I have heard many conservatives say the film promotes terrorism. This is one area in which I am willing to defend the liberals. The movie doesn't promote terrorism — it promotes the overthrow of tyranny. As far as V being a terrorist, it's not like he attacks innocent bystanders in the name of a religion.

Though the original graphic novel was a swipe at 1980s Thatcherian Britain, the movie doesn't try to hide its makers' displeasure with President Bush, conservatives and Christians. The theologies of Hitler and Lenin more closely match those of liberals, but brothers Larry and Andy Wachowski, the screenwriters, didn't let such facts confuse them.

The film makes hard-right conservatives out to be a threat and an enemy to America.

I suppose that is what many non-Christians think we Christians are like. I really would like to know where that impression comes from.

The other day, I tuned in to a new reality TV show, "Unan1mous," on Fox. Contestants locked underground together have to agree on which one person will win $1.5 million. Within 15 minutes, I turned it off. I couldn't stand it.

There was a contestant who called herself a "Christian." She immediately made clear that she believed the Bible is true and that she thought everyone else should believe it is true. She was overly forceful and got into an argument about homosexuality right away.

I didn't even wait to see how the argument ended. I couldn't watch anymore. I can only wonder whether the woman really believed those things or was being egged on by the producers. You can never tell with "reality" shows. At the very least, the producers chose her because of her extreme personality.

I have to ask: Is that really what people think Christians are like? Too many assumptions are made, and there isn't any one single Christian denomination.

Personally, I don't think it's right to stuff your beliefs down other people's throats; there are such things as friendly debate and silent testimony.

The "conservative" dictator in this movie reminded me of church leadership who say one thing and do another. Obviously, the leader in "V" is a hypocrite. Christians — true Christians — aren't like that.

The Bible teaches us to love one another. When the Pharisees wanted to stone a prostitute, Jesus defended her, saying that if one of them was without sin, he should be the first to throw a stone.

What does the Bible say about homosexuality? It's clearly against it. Is it a sin? Yes, but we all sin. You won't see me going around shaking my finger at homosexuals and saying, "Shame, shame." I won't judge homosexuals. I judge their lifestyle, but not them as people.

I won't lie, though. The scenes of homosexuals making out made me gag. Then again, I hate seeing people make out in public in general — heterosexuals included.

In assuming that I am judgmental, people become judgmental themselves. I loved this movie other than the obvious innuendos against Christianity and conservative ideology. It has a good message, and it makes some good points, but it gets so much wrong. With the way we are heading, it will be the Christians who are put in concentration camps, not Muslims and homosexuals.

This film's message of freedom needing to triumph over dictatorship, prejudice and racism is brilliant and true. But

"Bush's America" will not lead to the world of "V for Vendetta." In truth, it is Christians and conservatives whose freedoms are being threatened: the freedom to read the Bible or pray in public schools, to recite the Pledge of Allegiance with "under God" included.

Have you noticed how much Christianity is made fun of in television and movies today?

The principles America was founded on are being taken away. How many people even realize that George Washington was an intensely devout man? If he lived today, he could be criticized for praying in public, for not separating his faith from his politics. What are we coming to?

America's still a lot better than other countries where Christians have to meet secretly or people get the death penalty for converting to Christianity; but who's to say that America won't fall someday?

"V for Vendetta" makes you think. Which way you go with your thinking is up to you. Go which way you must, but the real "vendetta" is Hollywood's vendetta against the right.

Movie Review: 'Spear' drives home its point
By HARMONY WHEELER
TEENS IN THE NEWSROOM

Recent films such as "The Passion of the Christ" and "The Chronicles of Narnia" have had Christian meanings and been popular among audiences. Now, Jim Hanon has added to the list of awing films with the fact-based "End of the Spear."
Five missionaries, among them Jim Eliot (Sean McGowan) and Nate Saint (Chad Allen), have a risky goal: to make contact with the Waodani tribesmen in the jungles of Ecuador and share the Gospel with them.

The Waodani, almost extinct by their own hands, are known for their violence. Every day, Nate sets off in his big yellow plane to look for any signs of the tribe, leaving behind a son, Steve, and his wife.

When he sees a Waodani climbing a tree, he and his fellow missionaries make their way to where the natives live. Though the men have guns, they don't defend themselves when they're attacked and killed by the spear-wielding tribesmen. Once their bodies are discovered, the story really begins.

Nate's son, Steve (also played by Chad Allen), narrates the film, and the audience sees how the widows of the missionaries, along with Nate's sister, Rachel, risk everything and take their children to live with the Waodani to try to bring about peace without meeting the "End of the Spear."

In the process, Steve has to come face to face with one of his father's killers, Mincayani (Louie Leonardo), and learn to show him God's love.

There are twists and turns, as with any movie, and the audience learns details that most people don't know about this true story.

The acting is well-done. There are connections among the characters that add to the emotion of the film.

There is violence. After all, the lives of the Waodani people revolved around revenge and murder. However, the violence in the movie is nothing compared to what really happened.

It may be a Christian story, but that aspect of it is very subtle. It is obvious that the main characters are missionaries, but aside from a remark here and there, not much is said or shown of their work, leaving the focus of the film on emotions and events.

Still, the soul of the film is in the reason the missionaries make contact with the Waodani: to share the Gospel.

The wonder of the film is enhanced by the vast shots of the Ecuadorian jungles and the stunning soundtrack.

The natives speak in their own language, not in English, which helps viewers get a feel for the accuracy of the movie and makes us realize that this is an entirely realistic story of something that happened only 50 years ago.

"End" is an epic story that you won't want to end. It is beautifully done and sure to satisfy.

Movie Review: 'Narnia': 'Passion of the Christ' for the kids
By HARMONY WHEELER
TEENS IN THE NEWSROOM

"Harry Potter," "Lord of the Rings" and now "Chronicles of Narnia." Hollywood seems to have a habit of making movies based on popular children's fantasy books.
You would think that by now everyone would be sick of these twisted versions, and that these movies would get worse and worse. But actually, they keep getting better and better.

"Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," starts as four children and their mother scramble about to get to their shelter, away from an air raid.

As World War II forces the children of London to the countryside, the mother of Peter (William Moseley), Susan (Anna Popplewell), Edmund (Skandar Keynes) and Lucy (Georgie Henley) sends the children away to the home of Professor Kirke (Jim Broadben), where it seems like there is no fun to be had.

In a game of hide-and-go-seek, Lucy finds a mysterious room containing only one item of furniture: a wardrobe. She hides in the wardrobe, and as she backs up and feels for the wall, she falls into the land of Narnia.

She quickly makes friends with the faun, Mr. Tumnus (James McAvoy), who invites her over for tea. He fills her in on some of Narnia's history.

Winter has covered Narnia for one hundred years, but there is no Christmas. This is all thanks to Jadis, the White Witch (Tilda Swinton), who claims to be queen of Narnia and turns anyone who does not obey her into stone.

According to prophecy, when two sons of Adam and two daughters of Eve arrive and sit as kings and queens of Narnia, Jadis' reign will end. To avoid threatening Jadis' power, Mr. Tumnus makes Lucy return home.

Soon, Lucy returns to the mysterious Narnia. Edmund follows, but meets the White Witch. Edmund, tempted by Jadis' promises and tasty snacks, agrees to return with all his siblings.

Finally, all four children enter the magical land, and the adventure begins.

Narnia is full of talking animals and mythical creatures. The most magnificent of these is Aslan the lion (voiced by Liam Neeson). Aslan left Narnia for a while, but is now returning to help the children bring peace and freedom to the land.

Aslan, a Messianic figure, teaches the children to embrace their destiny, and even more important, the truth.

The classic clash between good and evil ensues. Sacrifices must be made, lessons learned, and battles fought.

The acting is superb. Moseley plays the part of Peter, an older brother trying to do the right thing and make everyone happy.

Popplewell plays the cautious older sister, Susan. Her disbelief in the land of Narnia is perfectly believable and, along with the cute and imaginative Henley as Lucy, she brings tears to your eyes as you watch her grief. You share in these characters' feelings as if you were one of them.

Keynes plays the selfish younger brother, Edmund. As Edmund betrays his siblings, everyone is sure to despise him. Yet, when he repents, Aslan makes sure no one harps on him for his wrongs. The past is forgotten and the future is at hand.

Neeson is the perfect Aslan. He is just "safe" enough, yet not too "tame."

Every word Swinton speaks as the White Witch, every beautiful costume she wears, every expression, reinforces her interpretation of a wicked Jadis.

The story, sets and characters are done just as well. The film does not fail fans of the book. It stays fairly true to the novel written by C. S. Lewis, who based the story on his own faith as a Christian and dedicated the book to his goddaughter, Lucy.

Christians will not be disappointed, either. Some have called the film a children's version of "The Passion of the Christ."

"The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" closely parallels the Gospel. Many books have been published regarding what can be learned from C. S. Lewis' allegories.

Because the story conveys lessons of good, evil, love, friendship, family, loyalty, selflessness, responsibility, courage and sacrifice, the movie should trigger much family discussion.

Although the movie is nowhere as dark or intense as "Lord of the Rings" or "Harry Potter," battle scenes and unsightly characters may not be for the younger ones.

Breathtakingly made, the film surpasses expectations and goes beyond the limits of our imaginations.

Let's hope there is a sequel in store, although we know that we "can't return to Narnia in the same way ever again. It will come looking for us, when we are not looking for it."

Movie Review: 'Pride' merely tolerable
By HARMONY WHEELER
TEENS IN THE NEWSROOM

Director Joe Wright's big-screen version of "Pride and Prejudice," based the classic Jane Austen novel, is — as Mr. Darcy might say — tolerable.
Mr. Bennet (Donald Sutherland) is the clever, sarcastic and witty patriarch, while Mrs. Bennet (Brenda Blethyn) is the gossipy, meddlesome and narrow-minded mother whose main goal in life is to marry off her five daughters, preferably to rich men.

Jane (Rosamund Pike), the eldest and sweetest of the daughters, tries to see the good in everyone. Elizabeth (Kiera Knightley) speaks her mind. Kitty (Carey Mulligan) and Lydia (Jena Malone) are the youngest and silliest of the sisters. Finally, Mary (Talulah Riley) is the conservative one of the family.

When a young, rich man, Mr. Bingley (Simon Woods), and his best friend, Mr. Darcy (Matthew MacFadyen), move nearby, they are the talk of the town. Every mother, including Mrs. Bennet, cannot help but dream that Bingley will marry one of her daughters.

At first glance, Bingley is an optimistic man of good fortune, but his friend is proud. Mr. Darcy slights Elizabeth, saying that she is "tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me."

Elizabeth swears she will never dance with Mr. Darcy. She is content with the idea of becoming an old maid, and says she will never marry unless she falls deeply in love. The last man on earth she believes she could ever love is Mr. Darcy.

Meanwhile, Mr. Bingley and Jane hit it off and find themselves very much in love.

Before you know it, Mr. Darcy finds himself strangely attracted to Elizabeth. As a twisted plot unfolds, other characters are introduced.

George Wickham (Rupert Friend) arrives with a regiment of handsome soldiers to tempt the ladies.

Mr. Collins (Tom Hollander), a cousin of the Bennet family, comes with the intention of marrying one of the Bennet girls. As Mr. Bennet's heir, Collins will receive the Bennets' home and will have the ability to turn the girls out. He makes up his mind to marry Elizabeth.

Unfortunately, Mr. Collins is not the most desirable partner — he is silly, self-centered and rather ridiculous.

Judi Dench plays Mr. Collins' patroness, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, Darcy's arrogant aunt.

As events unfold, and the unexpected happens, an unforgettable love story leads up to a new, creative ending that goes along well with the book.

Director Wright brings the film to life on the big screen with a different kind of "oomph" that has not been present in other adaptations of the story.

The film's fast pace helps fit the main parts of the plot into two hours.

For someone who has never read the book or seen the A&E movie, the story may be hard to follow — even considering that no version will ever top A&E's five-hour miniseries.

Fans of the novel should not hold their breath for the best lines from the book. They never come. Complete scenes and characters are cut out of this film, understandable given the time constraints.

One way the film differs from the book is that it gives Mr. and Mrs. Bennet a friendlier relationship. They are in love with each other. In the book, they constantly bicker.

As far as script, costumes, and setting go, all are authentic. It is the actors who bring the film down to a so-so level.

Knightley just barely shines as Elizabeth. The part was not made for her. She plays it well, yet does not bring it out to its fullest.

MacFadyen plays a flat, unchanging Mr. Darcy. Mr. Darcy's transition from proud and overbearing to humble and caring should be evident.

More important, there seems little reason to dislike Mr. Darcy for his personality, and he and Elizabeth fail to connect, either when they supposedly hate each other or when they supposedly like each other.

Chemistry between the two characters is not evident until the last scene of the film.

Hollander's Mr. Collins is supposed to provide the comic relief of the film, like an 18th-century nerd, but the film fails to bring out that aspect.

Still, Mr. Bingley is well-acted by Woods, and Pike plays Jane very well. They suit each other perfectly.

What brings everything together and makes the movie believable is the music. The soundtrack is amazingly beautiful.

Another thing that recommends the film to watchful parents and conservative teens is that the movie does not have explicit sex scenes or foul language. It's nice to see this kind of love story for a change.

Still, "Pride and Prejudice" is marred by poorly acted lead roles. To paraphrase Mr. Darcy, it is "tolerable, but not handsome enough" to tempt audiences.

Movie Review: New twists don't suit 'Oliver'
By HARMONY WHEELER
TEENS IN THE NEWSROOM

Roman Polanski's latest film, "Oliver Twist," is strangely twisted.
As the title suggests, the story follows the young boy, Oliver (Barney Clark), as he goes through various trials and meets all sorts of people.

Oliver, an orphan, lives in a workhouse with several other boys.

When he asks for some more gruel, he gets into trouble. As punishment, he is sold to an undertaker.

Soon after, he runs away and heads to London. There, he is taken in by Fagin (Ben Kingsley) and a band of thieves, and introduced to other shady characters such as Nancy (Leanne Rowe) and Billy Sikes (Jamie Foreman).

When fate takes a turn on poor Oliver, he comes into the path of Mr. Brownlow, a rich gentleman.

Mr. Brownlow feels a connection to young Oliver and decides to take him in.

Unfortunately, Oliver is kidnapped by Nancy and Sikes and taken back to Fagin's hideout.

The rest of the story involves betrayal, revenge, murder, and many more twists, leading up to a heart-breaking ending.

From the very beginning of the film, the audience will be disappointed.

The movie is based on the book by Charles Dickens. Every time you try to adapt a book to film, changes must be made. When Polanski tries to include as much as possible from the book, he puts together a film that is very choppy and has little point.

The first half of the film stays true to the book, but then things take a new turn. Some of the most important characters from the book are cut out, such as Rose Maylie and Monks.

If you have seen older versions of the story, watched the musical, or read the book, you at least know that Oliver is supposed to have a hidden, unknown relationship to Mr. Brownlow through his mother, Agnes. The truth about Oliver's mother and her past is usually revealed toward the end of the story. However, Polanski's version completely takes this out, along with several other twists that give purpose to the plot.

One good thing about this is that it gives the film originality and distinguishes it from any other version.

And, even though the film had its negative elements, there are other positives.

By the end of the film, you are emotionally attached to the characters, especially Fagin.

Fagin may seem like an insignificant character when you hear about him, but in this version, he carries the film.

Ben Kingsley has a completely new take on Fagin. He truly seems like a mad man who has lost everything worth living for. Everything is perfect about his interpretation of the role. From the way he staggers about to his careless lisp, he acts the role better than any actor could.

When Fagin is finally taken to jail and is about to meet his death, he goes mad. As you leave the character to meet his fate, a tear might be brought to your eye.

Barney Clark does an exceptional job as Oliver. He is the picture of innocence as Oliver goes through all the trials in the movie.

Leanne Rowe shows all of Nancy's internal and external emotions. However, she does not show Nancy's true love for Sikes. One wonders, if she does not truly love him, why she continues to stay with him.

Sikes' character is so cruel that Jamie Foreman had to act angry. He is ruthless and merciless in his role. He is the perfect Sikes.

Among other things, the film is entirely realistic. It gives the audience a glimpse of what life was like during Dickens' time, and what it is like to live your entire life helpless. It leaves us with a sense of respect for people going through hard times.

Although it may be boring most of the time, and it fails to engage the audience, it is still a good film worth seeing once.

Movie Review: 'Pants' a good fit for any movie fan
By HARMONY WHEELER
TEENS IN THE NEWSROOM

Friendship, love, hardships, change, and life: This is what "Sisterhood Of the Traveling Pants" is all about.
"Sisterhood" is a story that most anyone can relate to. If you have ever felt out of place, ever lost a loved one,ever fallen in love, ever had family trouble, or ever found shelter in a friend, this is a movie for you.

The story follows four lifelong friends — Carmen, Brigit, Lena and Tibby — as summer begins and they are about to leave each other for the first time. While on their journeys, each learns something new.

Before leaving, they go shopping together. Strangely enough, they manage to find one pair of pants that fits all of them perfectly. So, they decide to establish the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.

While on their summer trips, the pants travel between the four of them. As each of them goes through trials, they write to one another and send letters with the pants, telling what the "traveling pants" have brought them.

The pants give them a way to connect and give each other courage to face their fears and get through the summer.

Lena, played by Alexis Bledel ("Bride and Prejudice," "Sin City") is in Greece visiting her grandparents. While there, she falls in love with the grandson of her grandfather's sworn enemy.

Bridget (Blake Lively) is in Mexico at an all-girls' soccer camp and develops a crush on one of the men coaches.

Tibby, played by Amber Tamblyn ("The Ring," "Joan of Arcadia"), is left at home while the others go on their adventures. However, one fateful day, she meets Bailey, her young neighbor, who also has leukemia. Bailey, played by Jenna Boyd ("The Missing," "Dickie Roberts: Child Star," and "The Hunted"), annoyingly insists on helping Tibby with her documentary, which, consequently, turns into something entirely unexpected.

Carmen (America Ferrera) is visiting her dad, who left her mom when she was young. Right away, she learns a new truth that will change her life forever: He is getting married to a woman with two children who could not be any more different from her. In this case, opposites do not attract, and the sisterhood is needed more than ever.

In the end, the pants are merely witnesses to changes and lessons in four girls' lives. Such changes and lessons are present in everyday life. The spirit of the traveling pants: the bonds of friendship, joy, and love in all circumstances, and the ability to make good things happen, is in all of us.

The movie shows us that comfort can be found, even during the hardest times.

Based on Ann Brashares' best-selling novel, it teaches us that every person is a member of some sort of sisterhood (or brotherhood). As we play witness to one another's lives, we experience the unthinkable and realize that anything is possible if we put our "pants" to it.

Movie Review: Thumbs up for the 'Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy'
By HARMONY WHEELER
TEENS IN THE NEWSROOM

Based on the book by Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" poses a question: What if Earth were blown up, leaving only four survivors — one man, one woman, and two mice?
In this case, Arthur Dent (Martin Freeman) of England is saved by his friend, Ford Prefect (Mos Def), who is from a planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse.

At the last minute, Ford and the others hitch a ride on one of the Vogons' ships.

The Vogons, nasty, gray, slug-like, bureaucratic creatures, destroy Earth to make way for an intergalactic space highway.

Unfortunately for Ford and Arthur, these creatures also hate hitchhikers. Thus, Ford and Arthur are thrown into space (after having been read a selection of Vogon poetry, the third worst poetry ever known).

They are picked up by none other than the president of the galaxy (and semi-cousin of Ford), Zaphod Beeblebrox (Sam Rockwell) and Trillian (Zooey Deschanel).

Coincidentally, both Trillian and Zaphod have a past with Arthur. What are the probabilities of this happening? There are a lot of improbabilities in this movie.

Zaphod has stolen the famous ship, "Heart of Gold" and is using its Improbability Drive to find the legendary planet Magrathea. As the four are chased by the Vogons, a twisted plot unfolds.

Along on the journey is Marvin, the manically depressed robot, voiced by Alan Rickman, and Slartibartfast (Bill Nighy), a worker on the planet Magrathea.

The film is full of laughs. Separate from that, it makes fun of bureaucracy, politics and basic daily life.

This film is not to be taken as realistically or as seriously as a Star Wars movie. It's more a "Monty Python meets Luke Skywalker" film. Take, for example, the quirky purpose of the adventure: to find the ultimate question of Life, the Universe and Everything. The answer, 42, is already known, but is meaningless without the question, which they never find out anyway.

The guide referred to in the title is an electronic book like no one has ever seen. You can mention various topics to it and it will do a search, informing the reader of whatever entries are made regarding the topic in question. Its entries contain many facts and advice written by people who hitchhike for a living.

The movie stays fairly true to the book, with some elements from the sequels as well as some new, made-up elements. Fans of the book will surely enjoy the movie.

For girls out there who prefer chick flicks, there is even a little bit of a romantic plot involving Arthur and Trillian, as well as Zaphod and the Vice President. The movie does not have the typical elements of a chick flick, but the romance is sweet and heartfelt.

My favorite part of the film was toward the end. As the Vogons are shooting (with terrible aim) at Trillian, Ford, Zaphod and Arthur, Marvin picks up the Point of View gun (which makes the person shot think the way the shooter does for a moment) and shoots the entire fleet of Vogons. Every single Vogon crawls into a ball on the ground and says, "I feel so depressed!"

Another funny element includes the opening sequence, "So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish," in which the dolphins of Earth do back flips and leave by their own means to escape the destruction of the planet.

Although the purpose of the film seems pointless (possibly leaving room for a sequel), and the plot is weak in the middle of the movie, it is definitely worth seeing at least once.

The force is with this movie as it takes the audience on an adventure unlike any other, filled with loads of laughs, a bit of love, and plenty of action.

'Wicked' provides witch's back story
By HARMONY WHEELER
TEENS IN THE NEWSROOM

"So much more happened before Dorothy dropped in …"
So begins the catch phrase for the hit show "Wicked."

For years, L. Frank Baum's classic "The Wizard of Oz" has captured audiences in the story of Dorothy and her struggle against the Wicked Witch of the West.

Now, in "Wicked," a musical based on the 1995 book by Gregory Maguire, the old story takes an imaginative turn, showing a lively version of what happened before and during the adventure of Dorothy and her little dog, Toto.

It begins with the witch's death, as Glinda the Good looks back and remembers the days she spent with Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West.

Glinda tells her audience how Elphaba becomes green after her mother takes a potion called "green elixir," and of a father who shuns her because she is different.

When her sister is born paralyzed, Elphaba receives the blame and is given the task of being her sister's caretaker. Therefore, when her sister goes to college, she follows.

Madam Morrible, a teacher, discovers Elphaba's magical talent and takes her to see the wizard. The wizard, however, takes advantage of her, causing her to turn wicked.

In the middle of all this, there is a love conflict. Fiyero, a fellow student, falls in love with both Glinda and Elphaba and has trouble deciding who he really, truly loves. Glinda and Elphaba become close friends, but are separated once Elphaba becomes wicked.

The show answers all questions. You discover how the wicked witch became wicked, how the tin man became tin, how the lion became cowardly, how the scarecrow became a scarecrow, and how Dorothy's house came to land, in a killing blow, on top of the Wicked Witch of the East.

On top of such a satisfying plot, the acting and singing top any Broadway show I have seen.

If you have never gone to a Broadway show before, this is the perfect show to make your first. It only takes listening to one song to get you hooked.

There are a few moments that might offend some people. At one point sexual activity is indicated and at another point there is heavy kissing. There are also a few dark moments that might scare little ones.

With its spectacular special effects and music that will blow you away, "Wicked" is a must-see.
