I liked this movie very well, it as a very good movie and is catchy. It does not tell what the movie is about at first and keeps your attention and makes you want to keep watching. It never tells what is going to happen in the movie, or the point of the whole movie or story.
I watched this movie many of times . I like this movie very well and picked it to do the review on because it was an excellent film and i recomonend and teenager to watch it.

Freedom Writers Movie Review
The name of the movie being review is "Freedom Writers". This movie first came to realease on January 5th, 2007. The director of this movies is Richard LaGravenese, names of the main actors are; Hilary Swank (the teacher), Patrick Dempsey (the teachers husband), April L. Hernandez (As Eva,a student and a gang member), and Jason Finn(another important student and gang member).
In this movie a new, young teacher takes over a class of gang members, and kids who had a hard lifes and lives in lower class communitys and they know what it is like to shoot and be shot at. This young teacher inspires these students to respect and be respected, she teaches them toloerance and also inspires them to finish high school or even go farther.
This movie reminded me of the move "The Outsiders" in a way. In "The Freedom Writers" Eva sticks up for her gang members and will do anything for them. But after she realize's what life is really all about, she tells the truth about what happened when her fellow gang memeber shot a man. Instead of lieing and maybe goin to jail her self. This is something like when "Pony Boy" has to go to court and tell about what happend when his fellow gang member "Johnny' stabed a boy from another rival gang. Ponyboy doesnt lie and everything turns out alright, no one goes to jail because it was self defence. Both of these movies were great and compare well.
Hilary Swank's preformence was excellent in this movie. She starts out as unexpierienced teacher with a class that no other teachers would teach. She is not embaressed to teach these kids. She finally gets her love threw to them and they realize how much she loves them and what she will go threw to help them. They show love for her eventually and cant go with out her. The class and Hilary even fight with the head of the school so she can teach them in junior and senior year.
Hilary Swank never went threw this kind of expiernece before, she took a bunch of teenagers who didnt know what they wanted or what they was doing and made them into perfect kids. It is alomost like this movie had a city theme of "Might is right" or "Love and comparision have great healing powers".

The snowboarder.
I waited most of my life to get this far. I’m finally here. Its where I tried to get for so long. I’m at the world’s snow boarding championship.
A shot from a pistol goes off, and the race begins. There are 6 other snow boarders and me. With 3 boarders in front of me and 3 behind me. I can here the sound of other boards cut in the fresh trail; I can here here the crowd cheer as I slide up into second place. As I try top block the sounds of the other boarders and the crowd cheering, I start gaining on the man in first place, I come up behind him and I can feel the cold snow coming off his board hit my face and melt. I see the ramp coming up. I pray that I can make it across it without falling; this is the part that I practiced the most for. The boarder in first place makes at across without falling. I come up to it; I jump and swing my body. I can’t believe I’m doing it, I can hear the sound of the board hit the steel pole. I make it across; as I look down the trail I see the other racer has fallen. I’m gaining on him, before I know it I pass him and I’m crossing the finish line.
I won! After waiting all my life I’m here and I won. I can’t believe it; it’s like a dream come true. I guess hard work really does pay off.
