The film i saw recently is Ballerina. It's directed by Eric Summer, Eric Warin. The film casts Dane Dehaan, Elle Fanning, Maddie Ziegler. Type of the film is animation and family. It's about an orphaned girl arrives in Paris from Brittany. Feslicie Mininer is 11 and has no moneybut one big, passionae dream: to become a famous dancer. The acting is excellent, the special effects and music are incredible. I think it's a must-see film.

IX. Read the film review, and decide whether the statements are true (T), or false (F), and tick the correct box.

Have you ever read Alice In Wonderland, by Lewis Carol? I did and I really like it. It’s an adventure story full of magic and danger. Yesterday I saw Tim Burton’s version of the film at the cinema.

This story is about Alice, who is now a teenager. A man wants to marry her, but she runs away and falls downa rabbit hole. She travels to Wonderland, which she has visited before as a child, and meets a lot of amazing characters on her adventures.

There are a lot of good special effects in the film. The Red Queen, played by Helena Bonham Carter, is very scary, and Johnny Depp is brilliant as the Mad Hatter. He has acted in a lot of films before but this is my favourite one. Mia Waslkowska is good as Alice; this is her first big film and I think she’s going to become a big star!

Overall, I think this is a good film for teenagers, but it’s a bit long. You should see it if you like fantasy and adventure, but don’t go if you like romances: it’s not a love story.
