          "Star Struck" is a pharse we use to describe someone who gets very excited,
          nervous or shy when coming close to meeting with a celebrity.

          ------------------A blockbuster hit!-----------------------
          types of films
          blockbuster box office hit
          cult film
          straight DVD (not show in cinema)
          classic
          independent film
          pretentious
          flop
          ---------------grammar focus----------------------------
          I thought the acting was poor.
          The story line was lacking any exciting twists.
          ----------------language point---------------------------
          A blockbuster  is a type of aerial bomb that if it explodes
          destroys a large area.
          In USA if we say a movie is a blockbuster then we mean the movie
           was a  huge hit or success.
          -----------------------------------------------------------
          lower budget film.
          I feel the acting is better as the stars are still pretty down to the earth.
          --------culture point: movie reviews
          the people who write reviews take everything into consideration
          and if the movie has famous stars who perform weakly then
          the review will generally slate them.
          Also ,if the movie has a huge budget for creating the film and the final product
          is poor then again, the reviewers will be pretty harsh in their words.

          It is very difficult for movies in the west world to get good reviews unless they
          are absolutely out of this world.

           to "feel under the weather" is to feel sick or emotionally depressed.
          if you are not too close to someone and they ask you what's wrong, you
          could tell them you are "feel under the weather", you didn't need to go into details.

          --------------culture point---------------------
          Happy pills
          some people say that America is a prozac Nation.
          Prozac is commonly called "the happy pill",because it helps
          get rid of depression.
                Every year  different brands of "happy pills" earn 5.5billion.
          some people complain that  it's not rignt for doctor to give everyone happy pills.
          There are problems that cannot be ignored or hidden.

              Not sleeping enought can result in poor concentration.
              Having too many things to do can result in stress levels increasing.
              Too much unhealthy food and not enough exercise can cause people to put on weight.   
          -----------------language point---------------------------
          we often refer to them as "hellow legs".
          This is because they eat loads and loads but never seem to put on weight.
