       Bullet Train is a 2022 Action Comedy starring Brad Pitt. It follows former assassin, Ladybug, as he gets back in the game with a straightforward mission: snatch an aluminum attaché case from a speedy Shinkansen train bound for Kyoto and return it to its owner in one piece. However, there's always a catch to great-sounding deals. As five vicious hitmen vie for the same silver briefcase, hidden agendas get in the way, and everything that can go wrong will go wrong. Undoubtedly, Ladybug is a bad luck magnet.      For anyone who hasn’t seen it, I highly recommend it. After watching it for the first time it instantly became one of my favorite movies and recently, I’ve been recommended several video essays on YouTube that furthered my love for the movie. So today I would like to share with you what exactly makes this movie so great.      While the movie is considered action-comedy it is almost a mystery or thriller. It certainly gravit...

       Today I will discuss and analyze “Allstate mayhem commercial - Dean Winters as Teenage Girl in Pink Truck”. This commercial comedically portrays actor and stuntman Dean Winters as a teenage girl. Throughout the commercial he is on driving and on his phone texting his “BFF” about a boy that she kissed. This upsets Dean and he ends up hitting a parked car and then drives off . It then shows the parked car’s owner coming out to see her damaged vehicle with no one around.

After finishing a hearty meal and needing something to refresh the palate, I reach for a small aluminum container. The classic red and white design on the case gives it a high class feel. As it opens a cool aroma spread throughout the air. I brush my hand past the small paper encasing the refreshing sensation I desire but stop to read the bold text, “Curiously Strong” it says. Just below the paper lies the small pure white tablets I need. I pop the small disk into my mouth and immediately an intense chilling sensation hits like a strong wind on a winter day. It’s as if I have swallowed a blizzard. The feeling spreads all throughout my body as the chilling shock sharpens my mind. It's as if a veil has been lifted and only now, I am truly awake. It refreshes my breath and mind with its rejuvenating abilities. It takes everything I have to not crunch down on it to hasten the relaxing processes. Sadly, just like snow it begins to melt, and I’m left wanting just one more.
