The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

Book Review

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

Though The Adventures of Tom Sawyer was written many years ago, nowadays it continues being one of the most favorite stories around the world.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a book about a boy who is hyperactive and sometimes a troublemaker. In the first pages at the story we can read about simple tricks that Tom does to Polly (Tom’s aunt). Trough the story we can notice that Tom’s tricks becomes a serious troubles. Despite his attitude, he always succeeds the adversity. At the end of the story Tom Sawyer is happy with her friend Huck both as rich people.

Personally I enjoyed reading Adventures of Tom Sawyer because is a simple story that makes you interested in the plot of that. In my opinion the best part of the story it’s when Tom gets Jim Ben whitewashes a fence. On that occasion, Tom shows us how smart he is deceiving his friend.

The Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Movie Review

Rise of the Planet of the  Apes

This excellent movie could be an explanation of the movie “Planet of the Apes” aired in 1968, in which there is a world where simians were in charge and the people were in cages. 

Now in 2011, the movie “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” shows us how that unexpected world started. First of all, Bright Eyes (a chimpanzee) is captured in a teeming jungle and brought back to San Francisco California to be part of an experiment being run by Will Rodman a scientist who works at Gen-Sys a pharmaceutical corporation.

Then, the ALZ-112 a drug that could be a cure for Alzheimer’s ALZ-112 is proved in Bright Eyes who improves its cognitive skills. Unfortunately, Bright Eyes dies protecting its son who inherited its extraordinary intelligence. Soon Caesar the Bright Eyes’ son leaded the rebellion of apes vs. humans.  

Personally, I enjoyed this movie very much, because the story is not only about the experiments on apes, but also is about the relationship between humans and animals.  The story plot shows us how this intelligent chimpanzee lives in a human home, grows up like a member of the family, also as  Will’s son. For me, that is the best part of the plot.  

I don’t have anything negative to say about the Rise of the Planet of Apes, because I really enjoyed it. The story is excellent and well acted, both by stars like James Franco and John Lithgow.I really recommend this movie, if you go to the movies this weekend to watch “Rise of the Planet of the Apes”, you will enjoy an excellent moment.
