Can you tell me the name of a film?!
Question: I have to do a review for a film which I think is a good example of how the cinema can provide escapism from every day life.
I wanted to do a review of Jet Li's Fearless but I'm not so sure it's such a good idea.What do you think?

for pure escapism how about Monty Phyon's Holy Grail, Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles, Space Balls, History of the world,.. or Lord of theRings , Harry Potter, Blade Runner, Star Wars.

what about a fantasy-like or magical movie? I suggest any of Tim Burton's works.
This seems like a great topic to discuss science fiction. Films in this genre are designed to be completely unlike normal life, so something along those lines would be good. In the ilk you are looking for my suggestions would be the Matrix Trilogy. There are numerous escapism references and the movies as a whole are escapist since they are so unlike the normal conventions of action and technology.
Bagdad Cafe! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095801/
The people and places seem so real, yet there this atmosphere that makes is sooooooooooo magical!
Definitely my best escape.
You can also review "In the mood for love" pretty great too! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118694/
Kung Fu
Haven't seen it. If you liked then I'm sure it would do fine. I like Pulp Fiction,Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels or my all tme favorite One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
