my favourite film
i like to go to the cinema very much and i like to watch different films. my favourite genres are comedies and melodramas, but also i like fantasy.
i like different kinds of films, because each of them is very interesting and impresses me.
i like
comedies because they make me laugh. some of them are «dad is 17 again» , «just go with it», «hitch». they are family films.
melodramas are sad films. such films excite people. i usually cry when i watch melodramas. some of them are «a walk to remember», «if only», «remember
me».
but my favorite film is «harry potter. i like all parts of this film. i think that it is the best one and all children and adults love harry.
there are many computer drawings and special effects in this film.
«harry potter» is a very interesting fantasy
novel about magicians. but we can see friendship and love in it.
i can watch «harry potter» again and again. i watched each of eight films with great interest.
this film teaches us much, i advice all people to watch it.

мой любимый фильм
я люблю
ходить в кино и смотреть различные фильмы. мои любимые жанры — это комедии и мелодрамы, но также мне нравится фантастика.
я люблю разные фильмы, потому что каждый из них интересный и впечатляет меня.
мне нравятся комедии, потому что они заставляют меня смеяться. вот
некоторые из них: «папе снова 17», «притворись моей женой», «метод хитча».это семейные фильмы.
мелодрамы — это грустные фильмы. такие фильмы влияют на людей. когда я смотрю их, я обычно плачу. некоторые из них: «спеши любить», «если только», «помни меня».
но мой любимый
фильм – это «гарри поттер». все части. я думаю, что это самый лучший фильм и, что все дети и взрослые любят гарри.
этот фильм имеет множество компьютерной графики и спецэффектов.
«гарри поттер» — это интересный фантастический роман про магов. но в нем есть и дружба, и
любовь.
я могу смотреть «гарри поттера» снова и снова. каждую из 8 частей я смотрю с захватывающим интересом.
этот фильм многому нас учит, я всем советую посмотреть его.
