ESCAPE TO VICTORY : Now is the time for heroes







Can you imagine that a collective execution is decided in a football match? As Karl Marx's claim that religion is the opium of the masses,yet It's a well known fact that Football as well.We come across plenty of situations where Football is more important or relevant than an economic crisis or health problem.Although in some cases,this trendy sport was capable to change a transcendental decision,it was called the death match.

The film told the story prisoners of war are interned in a German prison.It sets in the second World War and Germans decided to play a football match against a German team in order to have a good time.Yet,not all glitters was gold for German troops due to the fact prisoners,Colby (Michael Caine),Hatch (Sylvester Stallone,Luis (Pele) and Terry (Bobby Moore) among others,are planning to escape during this match.

To sum up,Escape of Victory shows the endless struggle that always happens in every war of vulnerable part against the powerful.I extremely  recommend this film if you are a lover of war gender or simply a sports movie different to other it will watch from beginning to end.

New York,Peter Venkman (Bill Murray),Raymond Stantz (Dan Aykroyd) and Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis) are considered an extravangant scientiests.What's more,they have a stranger way to understand ghost investigating in Columbia University where they work.For this reason,they lose their jobs and they establish Ghostbuster in order to carry out their ideas to capture ghosts.After that,they hire a fourth member,Winston Zeddemore (Ernie Hudson) and they convert their van,limo-style endsloader combination car (Ambulance conversion),.which is called Ectomobile.On day,their first call arrives,Dana Barrett (Sigourney Weaver) whose flat is haunted by spirits.There,as paranormal activity increases,included the unforgettable ghost of  Slimmer and Stay Puff Marshmallow Man,in New York City and the Ghostbuster role is absolutely necessary.

Personally, I really enjoy watching Ghostbusters.It's a haunting story which I'll remember always.For all lovers of 80s movies,Ghostbusters is a must.Not until you listen its soundtrack do you realize what wonderful movie is..................Who ya gonna call?
