I think the clip "The bird" is very nice to watch because of the intersting climate!

Marc said...

The birds in "The Birds " are very scary. They attack people for no reason.

Sharan said...

From my point of view, a good story requires a well written introduction, a suitable setting, a detailed description of the characters, an exciting climax, and a resolution that leds to a learning point. In this short trailer, it fulfills all the requirements for a well written story. It has an interesting climax in which the birthday celebration was ruined by those aggressive birds and the ending of the story wants me to view the whole movie as it has lots of suspense that makes you engross in watching further.

Hafizah said...

Interesting climax. It makes people wonder why the birds would want to attack the children.

Dear Jon,

Firstly, you have a two spelling mistakes in your review. It should be interesting instead of, 'intrsting' and climax instead of, 'climate'.

Your review is not that sincere and is not helping the teacher to improve on her teaching. It should be longer and written with correct spelling.

Thank you,
Firdaus & Farsha(:

The climax,where the bird attack on the birthday party of the girl, is so ferocious and scary to the family and friends.
The only man the scene is very brave.

The Video Clip Is a little scary as birds start attacking innocent people when they are having a good time with their family members and friends...

In my opinion , The birds are hungry , therefore attack the innocent people for food .

Denise Lee said...

This story make me curious about what is going to happen next and what is the cause of the birds to fly around and attack other people.

Rafarsha said...

'The Birds' is a great classic story which may happen to us any time.

Thatchayani said...

It is an interesting trailer. It is because the birds came out of no where and started attacking the innocent children who were playing. The trailer also have shown good introduction and interesting climax. The suspense scene in the trailer makes us more interested to watch the movie.

If the starting of the story is like this it make me wants to know more about it. It have a good climax when the birds attack those innocent people. However there is some bad points of it as i do not know anything about the characters and also the ending of story is bad as it does not say how they solve the problem. I think there should be a reason for the birds to attack those innocent others than these i think overall the story is very attractive.

Azezah Irzawati said...

The situation in the video clip is chaotic where everyone were running about to escape from being attack by the birds, which describe the climax of the story.

dear denise lee,
im agree with u.the story would be a mistery,i can said.a good story will make people wants to contiue watching and waiting for the great actions to begin.'the birds' have some interesting actions that make people wonder and keep asking about what's going to happen next and the causes that might have done to the children when they were celebrating the birthday party.i also agree that this story have a very good climax to become an example for us to write our own narrative too.

ashikin said...

I think clip is "The bird " has a good sequence of event.Eventhough the clip is short, it leads to suspens and has great climax.

Shiley said...

All i can say is that yes the birds are very scary but they must have some reason which made them do this . To me i think that this is not a climax there should be something more interesting.

Joan said...

The big birds from "The birds" gave me a very sacry feeling as they were flying they gave out out the sound that was so bone shivering.But one point is that i do not understand why the birds would want to attack the children at the birthday party.

Riyanto said...

I think this story has an interesting climate because it shows how nature can turn deadly in a blink of an eye.And that we should respect nature and other people because we are taking things for granted and never know how long they last....

Riyanto said...

I think the story has an interesting climate as it shows how deadly nature can be in a blink of an eye and that we should respect nature and other people in any way that we can because nothing lasts forever

Izzah Sorfinna said...

I really enjoyed this movie although i have only watched a small portion of it. Im eager to watch the rest of it. I love the sound effects which is sometimes heart throbbing . :)

I like Sharan's answer. I agree the scene when the birds attacked the birthday party was very suspenseful.

A few got the word wrong - I think you mean 'climax', not 'climate', the latter referring to the weather or season. Thanks Firdaus and Rafarsha for mentioning that.

At the start of the video,family/relative is going to celebrate some kid's birthday at somebody house.It makes me wonder which kid birthday was it?The kid are playing some games which are quite dangerous and their parent isn't doing a great job looking after them.I think the parent wasn't paying much attention with the kids.There's a girl taking a birthday cake out from the house and it's a beautiful nicely make cake.i guess it's their grandma.When the first bird attack the blindfolded girl.I started to feel that atmosphere is coming out.Kid starting running around,screaming away which is quite irritating to me.So the part is not very suitable for me.When all the people(actor) reached inside the house,the bird stopped attacked which mean that the bird attacked them on purpose.It make me started to like this clip because the bird won't stopped attacking unless something happen to them which mean that the bird attack situation will not just end like this.This clip has some things that shouldn't been seen.

Nabila said...

In my opinion, 'The Bird' is an interesting movie that have an interesting conflict and well written climax. The movie give me a sense of suspense. The short clip will arouse the curiosity of the viewers. No doubt people will be interested to watch the movie.

muhd haikal said...

I think the video clip of the "the birds"has an interesting climax for a horror story because the audience will start to ask why did the birds attack the people at the party.

Simin said...

It's an interesting clip which attracts me a lot. It has a good introduction where the birds suddenly came and attacked the innocent children who were having so much fun during the birthday party. The clip makes me wonder why the birds attack the children out of a sudden and it makes me want to continue watching the rest of the part of the firm to find out what happens in the end.

Fazirah said...

A good story should have a good introduction, setting and character that are very detailed. The climax should be interesting so that the readers are eager to know what will happen next, and the conclusion that makes the readers understand the story. A good story can attracts the readers to encourage them read more books.

Wee Jian said...

A good story requires well written introduction , setting ( depends on the storyline) , a very well description of characters , an interesting climax and lastly a very good ending. In this two minute trailer. it already fit the requirement for the aboves. The start of the video was a very happy scene like children having party outside the house and suddenly something went wrong. Aggressive provoked bird starting attacking the children and end of the video make us want to look on further of the video.
