Movie Review

I watched a short animated film - Pigeon impossible, by Martell Animations
I could tell it was a Spy themed movie. It starts in Washington D.C. where the theme song sounded like Mission Impossible. The spy has a bagel that a pigeon really wants and he couldn’t get it to go away and the pigeon gets stuck in the spy’s briefcase. The pigeon flies with the briefcase and presses buttons that shoot lasers. The spy’s mission is to get the briefcase back. In the end he manages to get his briefcase back from the pigeon.

I didn’t like the fact that some parts weren’t realistic such as when the pigeon was flying above the spy and he was waving his arms really close to it and the
Pigeon still didn’t fly away like most birds would.

I liked the part when the pigeon was stuck in the Spy’s briefcase because it pressed lots of buttons and the way the pigeon pressed them was funny.

I also liked the spy song at the start, it was like Mission Impossible and I could tell it was a spy themed movie.

I recommend to watch this short film because it was an interesting, animated story with cool sound effects.

Overall I liked this short film and would rate it 4 stars out of 5.

E.O.T.C recount


On Wednesday the 16th of March at Castor bay I felt so excited, I put my life jacket on and got ready to paddle through the sea. I was on the water and I started to paddle further and further. After a while everyone in my group,Tiritiri started to get the hang of paddling a kayak . It was a very hot day, I paddled as hard as I could and my arms got sore. We do E.O.T.C to learn things that we may not have known how to do before.
As I joyfully paddled my way across the sea from the corner of my eye I glanced at Rangitoto as it sat there in the sun doing nothing. I could see everyone on their colourful kayaks, the water glistening under the sunlight, paddles moving up then down and the small rippling waves. I could hear the waves lapping down quietly onto the shore, people talking and paddles splashing about. I smelt the saltiness of the sea and the stinky sand all throughout the beach. I felt the the bumps and rubber on the paddle, the cold water, soft, silky sand and the nose of the kayak. I tasted the excitement race around when my team won the netball game and I tasted salty sea water. I thought that it was fun and as if I were riding a smooth galloping horse. I was paddling,  pushing the kayak, talking and sitting on my kayak.
