Powaqqatsi was an interesting movie. At first I had sort of a bad reaction from watching the beginning of it. It gave me a headache because of the movement within the film. After I finished watching the rest of the movie, I begun to understand the meaning of it. It showed different perspectives of how the world works... of how people make the world go round' no matter their occupation. It also showed how what is normal for some people can be chaos for others. I discovered that powaqqatsi is a great way to open up ones mind to the everday life of others around the world.
Octavia thinks... Powaqqtsi is a mind-opening and powerful movie. It shows different aspects of life from simple and systematic conditions to complex and industrial conditions. It showed me that life is not as easy-going or technologically advantage as other parts of the world; however, make do what they got. Powaqqatsi is a movie that people need to see to understand and appreciate what they have and not take it for grant. Powaqqatsi is a wonderful learning experience and I personally love the movie.
Unlike many movies Powaqqatsi was different yet enjoyable. It opened my eyes to the different ways of life. To me Powaqqatsi is a strong film due to the many perceptions and themes that people can get from it. Also, it is a universal movie that should be shown because of the central message it conveys society, culture and technology. Personally Powaqqatsi has changed my outlook on our society versus that of others. Thanks Jimbo for this great opportunity. -Lisa J.
Powaqqatsi is very different from the movies I usually watch. However, this one was really interesting. I loved how it showed films from across the world and different societies and how they live. It displayed different themes and ways of life that are very different from my own. This movie was a big eye-opener for me.
Initially I was confused because I did not really understand what I was supposed to be looking for in the movie. To make matters worst on my impression Powaqqatsi is a silent film. Therefore I was not able to use my ears (strongest sense) to listen to anything but the music. The lack of dialogue allowed my mind to develop its own perceptions of the movie and I was able to understand the situations that others face daily. I really appreciate and cherish the opportunity to view Powaqqatsi.
I loved Powaqqatsi. It was a very interesting movie and an eye opener because it was different. It opened my eyes about the struggles of some people while the world is continuously advancing.
I didn't understand it. I still sort of don't understand it. Though I found it interesting from all the picture. Showed you all the different parts of the word truly by pictures. I liked it.
I thought that Powaqqastsi was a very interesting movie, I found it very eye opening. While watching the movie I could not but help to think about all the different changes and cultures, and ways of life this world has to offer. This movie made me think about how our society and our values changes us as people. All in all I thought Powaqqatsi was an excellent movie for TOK class, I hope to see more movies like this in the future.
Powaqqatsi was different from what I'm used to, but it was still enjoyable. The different themes in the movie made me wonder about how society actually is and how people live.
