A Big Bold Beautiful Journey Teaches Us About Human Nature

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, released September 19^th in the US and rated R, stars Margot Robbie as an ambitious women who meets an equally as ambitious man, played by Colin Farrell, and take off on a journey through time. The man, David, has dreams that he wants to realize in his life, and finds the means to explore them through renting a time-travelling car. He links up with the woman, Sarah, who is down to help him find the truth in his life.

The film takes aim at modern trends by following its own trend, going against the culture of the fast life, and succeeds at making the moments last. The film feels like everything is worthwhile. Exploring various scenic parts of life that have their own beauty to reflect on, the film takes a journey through the mind to see what’s really happening inside of the heads of dreamers.

 

The film takes off from its own basis in fantasy. It strays from the traditional paths that filmmakers take, and swerves off into tangents that are just as relevant as the plot is. Modern filmmaker Kogonada directed the film, and shows off his talents for making a cohesive and practical plot into a big screen adventure. Kogonada’s triumph seem endless, and he tells his tales through active, thoughtful, and emotional playfulness.

 

The playground of thought seeps deeper into the realms of dreams the further along the journey goes. Collecting upon the ideology that it had established through the baseline in time travel, and moving towards further development with quirky, ironic jabs at the nature of time travel. The clouds hovering above the stars lift at points and settle at others, with their good nature shining through the darkness of their ambitious minds.

 

The film has proponently decided that it has a purpose to serve, and it serves its purpose. It holds together what’s true in human nature, and dissolved into a dissection of what not to expect along the road the mind takes you. The metaphor of the road is established through the visual cues and signals given along the literal road that they take in the film.

 

Anything that could fill the time has been passed on, and everything stays relevant. The delineation of the plot moves quickly and poignantly to model the truth behind the story that it’s trying to tell. It moves to explain what it means to want things in life, and explains how to get them. Teaching as many lessons as it asks questions about what life means to the people living it.

4 Movies That Were Groundbreaking in Seth Rogen’s Career

Seth Rogen has an ambitious career. A solid member of the Hollywood in-crowd, he has established himself as a force to be reckoned with in a variety of movies, all while maintaining composure. At least what’s left of the composure when his hilariously offbeat remarks make everybody crack up. Here’s a list of what makes him one of the most underrated and iconic stars of the 21^st century.

 

The Green Hornet (2011) PG-13

Seth Rogen teamed up with a venerable cast including Christoph Waltz, James Franco, and Cameron Diaz for this irreverent superhero flick. Taking inspiration from adventure comedies of the past, the film celebrates a Rogen-centric tradition of not holding back on the production. The film takes the audience through great lengths of plot twists and ironic humor to tell a classic superhero story through a delightfully distorted vision that still serves its purpose.

There are all kinds of facets of classic superhero movies explored through the film. Down to the camera angles and lighting techniques. It’s embedded in the lines that Rogen acts out and the moves that he makes. There’s nothing left untouched.

Rogen’s acting in the film takes into consideration the tradition of superheroes in film. Their flaws, their triumphs, their struggles. He knows how to approach his character, and does it with the demeanor and focus that keeps everything held together.

 

Neighbors 2 (2016) R

Neighbors 2 is a lot of things. At the same time that it follows in the footsteps of the first Neighbors film, it’s a step in a new direction at the same time. It really signaled a new direction for Seth Rogen too. The film plants its influence with the promotion of the boyishly cool fraternity cats that it loves to exploit, and the ironic antics that delve deeper into the psychology of the cast.

When everyone in the film gets together, there is a great chemistry between the ironic teamwork of Seth Rogen and Zac Efron. The rivalry and mystery unravels thickly, and loops together into a bold statement about suburban life.

It’s really a college flick. The topics covered, the characters involved, and the acts played out all have a direct relationship with the college system. It serves its purpose to entertain through an off-kilter and earnest attitude towards conceptualizing the contrasting worlds that independent people have in America.

 

Knocked Up (2007) R

Tons of people saw this movie when it first came out. It was like the big thing in that era. Everyone was booking it to the theater to go see the new Seth Rogen film. People were obsessed with him.

This raunchy rom-com had about a million jokes about sex that keep the comedy grounds running red. It’s dirty, and that’s an environment in which Seth Rogen feels free to express himself in a cool, collected way.

He commands the scenes with his facilities. Somehow taking on everyone and their sister with his comedic range. It’s a big string of events along the road that other raunchy sex comedies have taken, but driving along an innovative direction that Seth Rogen is known for.

 

The Night After (2015) R

    

Success is only a few feet away, but it feels so far. No matter who Seth Rogen runs into in this film about a drug-fueled Christmastime, he runs into conflict. It’s a raucous and inspiring collage of late-night pictures and hilarious lines.

The film maintains relevance to the modern era. Featuring businessmen on a mission, the whole thing has a lot to say about life the way we know it, and the way that people try to blow it off. The extravagances of this world take the rails off of the tracks, and Rogen is there to bring it back together.

Seth Rogen is an ironic hero. He takes things too far, but brings them right back home. His approach to comedy is innovative and creative, and he moves with the motion of the world. He hasn’t been outdated or lost to time, but remains a cult phenomenon.
