Valley of the Queens: Planned Obsolescence

What I got back from the film was that Tronic was "the bad guy" to Solomon. I really didn't understand the whole concept of the purpose of the film. I didn't understand because almost every sene was in a different place and it was also didn't story lines that Tronic and Solomon were talking about. I think that the film could have been more better and not so fake. It seemed fake because I feel like anyone could easily figure out what can happen. I feel like I would see this film in highschool and students would be recording them selfs for a project that they have to do for school. Overall I think the script could have been a little more better.

This movie is directed well, the actors do a great job and I only watched a couple clips and I saw that this took a while to make. I love the actor that plays Solomon I think he did a great job. I am excited to find where I can watch this movie and watch the whole movie, so I can get the entire story beginning to end. It teaches a great lesson about ethics and how you can keep true to yourself. I have only watched a little bit of this movie but I think it is a good movie and it can teaches you about ethics and it make you think and laugh. Good job to the director and the actors and everyone else.

This film is very interesting to me as to how it connects with intercultural communications. Solomon and Tronic obviously had very different cultural and ethical values. In terms of the film, it was great. I feel like the culture of both characters are all seen intertwined in the community now a days and the film does a great job of highlighting the differences amongst both characters. A lot of people can really connect with this film if they watch it fully and analyze the whole meaning as to why everything played out that way that it did. There willl always be differences in the world and that is something we can accept.

I really liked the plot in this movie, I watched about 10 minutes of it in class and it seemed very intriguing. It tied well into real world interactions, however I feel like some of the lines were a bit on the nose and over the top. Especially, Tronic who was incredibly direct, sometimes to a fault, and it really through off the pace of the movie for me. I couldn't really get into the scenes that he was present in. I also feel Nefertiti's entrance was incredibly cheesy. I feel the writers could have been a bit more creative in that aspect. Overall, I think these points all contribute to my 5/10 rating.

The movie was good. Applies principles of intercultural communication and portrays the concepts of code switching and cultural norms. This movie takes the relationships between cultures as experienced in the everyday world into the business world. The issue of big companies selling the information of their customers is also touched upon. I think that this issue is a prominent one in contemporary culture and should be touched upon more often. Hopefully other movies can build upon this and do the same. It is the role of movies and art like this to expose the inner workings of business and culture to bring them to the light.
