Humor Blog: White Chicks

       FBI agents and brothers Kevin and Marcus Copeland , posing undercover as cuban convenience store clerks, attempt to capture members of an organization known for selling drugs inside ice cream packaging. Unfortunately, the first arrival turns out to be a genuine ice cream delivery, and the actual drug dealers manage to get away. The situation is worsened by the fact that Kevin and Marcus have decided to resolve this bust by themselves. Now theyre in some deep trouble with the beareu.

     FBI supervisor Elliott Gordon  gives the two brothers a last chance to remain FBI agents by giving them the duty of protecting the billionaire cruise line heiresses Brittany and Tiffany Wilson. The Wilson sisters, who are in town for a beauty competition, are expected to be the target of a kidnapping plot in which the FBI hopes to capture by means of a sting operation. When the Wilson sisters get minor facial cuts in a car accident, they refuse to leave the hotel. Kevin and Marcus then disguise themselves as the sisters in order to save their jobs.


Marcus Copeland was played by Marlon Wayans. Hes the one of the many in the famous Wayans family.
Marcus was a character that was the opposite cop type, he was more trying to be safe amd not get into anything stupid.


Kevin Copeland was played by the brother of Marlon, Shawn wayans. kevin was more of the go getter cop that didnt really think of the conseuqneces before he did things.

The producer of this movie is Keenon Ivory wayans, hes is most known for creating the hit 90's show "In Living Color" he directed this film with his two brothers which are also the mail roles too.

i chose this movie because its my favorite comedy movie and it means alot because it was more of a parody of the buddy cops movie. The plot was great and i liked the lighting and also the camera work in this movie. It really shows you the life of cops in New York City.

A Soldier's Story

A soldier's story is an African American drama film created in 1984. This movie is directed by Norman Jewison who is famous other movies that he has directed. This movie is based on the original play A Soldiers Play, it takes place near the end of World War II. When segregation was still a big factor and it was in the movie. This film has an All-Star lineup in the meaning of Hollywood.


Howard E. Rollins- Played Cpt. Davenport the investigator into the mysterious murder to the not very like Sargent Waters. The more Cpt. Davenport looks into the murder the more confusing it gets, his role is big because hes the main guy in all the action in the movie.

 
Adolf Caesar  Played Sgt. Waters which is in the opening scene in not such a bright light. The Sgt. got shot by which was an anonymous character  Sgt. Waters was a troubled man from the south that did not like the average black man that think they run everything. He was one of the more Lilberal African Americans I have ever seen.

Denzel Washington- This actor is one of those movie stars that everyone is going to recognize him either if they didn't even live when the movie was releases. Denzel played Pfc. Peterson. He was an low ball kind of character that did stand up for himself no matter what the circumstances was. The irony in this movie is that Sgt. Waters actually wanted to promote Peterson to head officer. Peterson dissagreed with the Sgt. beliefs.


Larry Riley- This character in this movie is the main point of the movie even though he wasn't the star. C.J. Memphis was a great baseball player that was one of those gifted black young men that had everything going for him, Except waters didn't like his type at all, he tried everything he can to get rid of Memphis. At the end of the movie he killed himself because of a action that Sgt. did.

The next day Siste Aloysius who is a conseravtive principal at the vatholic school questions why Father Flynn had that sermon. She discussed with all the Sisters that they should keep their eyes out for any strange behavior that's  happening at the Church/ School. The plot twists when one day during class Father Flynn called Donald Miller, the only black student at the school and also an Altar Boy.

Sister Aloysius- Played by Meryl Streep, Sister is the Main character in this movie. She is the principal of the school. She plays a crucial role in this movie because she is the main turn in this movie, she is all about doing the right thing even if she has to go to lengths she hasn't gone before.


Father Flynn- Played by Phillip Hoffman, the priest is at first comes off as the innocent one in the movie simply cause he is the pastor. Little do you know that Doubt has a big part of father Flynn's part in this movie. Father Flynn has doubts of his own, and with Sister on his case he doesn't need anymore.

Sister James- Played by Amy Adams,  even though it doesn't seem like it, Sister James is the most important role in this movie.

L.A. Confidential is a movie about the Los Angeles police department caught up in a three way scandal. A shooting at a coffee shop brings out the brains cop which is played by Guy Pearce, Pearce is trying to solve a crime at a coffee shop while officer Bud White is trying to figure out the reason to all the prostitutes dressing up as famous actors. Officer Jack Vincennes who is played by Kevin Spacey is more of the cool guy role just letting these fly but knowing whats always going. These three officers are in the middle of one of the most plot twisting movies I've ever seen. 

L.A. Confidential 
Main Actors: Kevin Spacey                   Guy Pearce          


           Russel Crowe                
 Director: Curtis hanson 

I rate this movie a 10 because i've never seen a movie like this before and it was such a thrill and suspense it left you out of your chair each scene. The cast is played absolutely perfect and its one of a kind.
