Movie Review

There are so many movies that I have seen in the past few years, but most of them are not worth mentioning. The one genre that you will NEVER catch me watching is horror. I do not know why people find it entertaining to be scared. Anyway, one of my favorite movies is “The Count of Monte Cristo.” The first time I watched this movie, I must have been around ten years old, watching it with my mom and sister with a bag of kettle corn with salt. The gist of the plot is that there is a young man, Edmund Dontes, probably in his early twenties, who was falsely convicted of a crime and was then sent to a prison where he was beaten for years. He befriends another prisoner, the priest, who was falsely convicted and they try to dig their way out. As this friendship grows, Edmund and the priest practice reading and fighting. One day, the priest dies. Edmund uses this as a way out. He eventually gets free of this prison and becomes a rich count. I do not want to spoil the movie for anyone who has not seen it, so I will not talk about the ending, but this movie is very interesting and should be watched by everyone.
