Amazing Movies
Are you looking for some movies? You've landed on the right place. Let's take a look at the list I've collected.
A Beautiful Mind A Beautiful Mind is the story of John Nash, a mathematician who went on to win the Nobel Prize for his Game Theory. This movie brings his whole journey on screen—from his beginning to his downhill ride. The first half is all about his rise to fame while the second half shows how he slowly falls into madness. After many years of fighting, he finally is victorious. |
I. Q. The story is about an auto mechanic who falls for Albert Einstein's niece. The only problem is that she is engaged (订婚) to someone else. Fortunately, Einstein likes him. He pretends to be a physicist to run after her, but things don't go as he'd planned. If A Beautiful Mind was a little too heavy for you, I.Q. would be the perfect fit. It's a light-drama that is funny and heartwarming for the most part. |
Good Will Hunting Good Will Hunting is a touching tale of a troubled young man called Will Hunting who is gifted with a natural talent in mathematics. However, he is struggling to find his identity. He can solve any math problem, but not the one he seems to be struggling with in his life.

This movie attempts to bring his struggling days into focus; the time when he was dealing with the loss of his daughter and was suffering from hallucinations (幻觉). At the same time, he was working on a book called On the Origins of Species, which he finally completed. All in all, Creation is a great historical drama. |
