I can't think of any good movie that I really like in Ukrainian language, but my family and I love Russian movie called " svatu". We watch it all the time. It's a family movie so I can watch with my kids and no worries about bad language or any killing in this movie. But in a general I think all movies are same, and it's doesn't really mater is it Russian Ukrainian or America, they all can be good or bad.

do not think there's any comparison between the Hollywood cinema and the cinema in Iraq.And so for several reasons, including the development of production and bumper artists and study of modern and developed.While the Egyptian cinema are sophisticated and can the Arab viewer he enjoyed.Personally, I've been following daily latest Egyptian movies, including several well-known representatives of the likes of Omar Sharif.I think the movie Knight 13.Is the one who made him one of Hollywood stars.

Most movies in my country are about society problems, religious history, previous war or comedy. They don’t make some movies with a lot of special effect like Hollywood; actually they don’t have the progressive technology like Hollywood, so it’s better to not do it because the adventures movies with old technology would be funny in this century. On the other side I have to say that they are so successful in social movies, and usually they get awards from famous competition in all around the world like Oscar Awards. For example, last year A Separation that is a Persian movie won Oscar 2012 as a best foreign movie. It’s about a married couple are faced with a difficult decision to improve the life of their child by moving to another country or to stay in Iran and look after a deteriorating parent who has Alzheimer's disease.

I think right now, in Russia have learned to make movies with special effects. For example, the last Russian movie “Metro”. This is disaster movie. In my opinion, it has the same kinds of special effects as Hollywood movies. I sometimes watch Hollywood films, but I think that there is often a lot of violence. Russian’s make a lot of good and interesting documentaries. I like historical documentaries and documentaries about animals. I especially like the documentaries about animals made by the BBC and those documentaries I watch on the Discovery channel. But the old movies that were made in the Soviet Union I like the most. I especially like the old Soviet comedies. Unfortunately, at that time there was a lot of censorship and many good films have been banned.

Films in Arabic do have the same affects because we also have action, drama, horror, and comedy films. Although it's just in the Arabic language. There are good documentaries made in Arabic dealing with life, religion,science, history, and nature. Foreign films bring a different image to my country. They open the eyes and ears of the people to the world especially to the western world. People become more educated, up to date, and more aware on what takes place around world. Foreign films bring a cultural and traditional affect as well. It causes people to want to become like the west and they start copying western customs and styles. Positive points are that some people start learning new stuff about the world. Negative points are that sometimes people may start to forget their own culture and traditions. Movies in English are the most popular because they are usually Hollywood films. Also people like watching something different and not Arabic all the time. At the moment I don't know any films in other countries. I was never really big on films but when I have time I like watching some Hollywood films.

Ukrainian media have been using fewer and fewer cartoons, especially political ones. This is mostly caused by the media environment which dictates self-censorship. Many media owned by oligarchs and those in power are afraid to criticize their owners and prefer to keep critical cartoons out of the public eye. The US is also seeing fewer cartoons these days. However, this is guided by the market as many print publications switch to online. Pulitzer-winning cartoonist David Horsey talks to The Ukrainian Week about cartoon art in America today.

The films made in Honduras do not have the same kind of special effects like Hollywood films. There are good documentaries made in Spanish, such as Everything is Incredible, 2012 The Beginning, The Evidence of Hope, etc. People in Honduras act positively, they support acting. Some people think that some foreign movies are high in violence. The most popular films produced in my country in Spanish were Spirit of My Mother, The Xendra, Love and Beans, Utopia, Midnight Souls, Anita, the Insect Hunter, and Calixto the Landlord.

The films made in native language have definitely more kinds of special effects then as Hollywood films. The actors who are living in those cultures can transmit exactly pictures and feelings than actors from another country. The most important is main idea of the movie. If I can learn something new watching the movie, it’s mean that the actors get their goal. My favorite movie is “Fireproof”.

Films made in my language do not have the same kind of special effects us Hollywood films, but a lot of them are great. One of the most popular documentaries that we have is Discovery in Spanish. In this film we can find a lot of information about animals, plants and other interesting things that are happening in the world. We have a lot of good actors, but is sad to say that is not compare with Hollywood actors. In my opinion I think to have a good production as hollywood it has to be a good productor there and the profit .

Yes, I think there is. But to say you can not do that as I watch very few movies. I don `t know what kind of movies do positive my culture but I do know that kids destroy their psyche when they watch such films and cartoons like" Star Wars, "" Bionikol. "And many that contain violent sense. These films will not learn anything good. In Russia there are films that look even earned abroad at the Cannes Festival Palme d'Or. such as "cranes" "War and Peace", "Moscow does not trust tears" "Burnt by the Sun" cartoon "The Old Man and the Sea."

In my country the directors don’t make movies with special effect like Hollywood, because they don’t have modern technology to make it like Hollywood. Of course in my opinion some of effects in Hollywood movies are unreal. Most of movies in my country are social. Some of them show problems of social. I think they can be useful for people because the social is important for each member of family to learn good behavior. Last year was a Persian film in Oscar that called A Separation. It was about a family that wanted to move other country but one of them didn’t agree to it. Of course it had a long story.

yes, absolutely in my language films have the same kinds of special effects as Hollywood . Many positive effect can foreign films have on the people and culture same for all of country but depends on movie made in which country and show that from witch culture . There are have some documentaries made in my language direct by my language director but i don't focus to that but i watch some documentaries made in American English language ,i like that and that is good idea for practice English history channel documentaries program and national geographic and Gangland some of popular U.S documentaries program . I don't think a movie can have negative effects in other country and other culture but depends on what Attitude those people have in their country what they people understanding about community and ,... . In my country many young people like American life style and American movie and their young memory update with new things of community and culture from west part of Earth and watching a movie is a good idea for giving adult memory for young people and understanding about new culture or running away since their daily think and daily job,come down for a few hours in their free time .Yes , movies originally produced in my language the most popular films in my country, or in other countries.One of most popular films from my country is (jodaeiye nader az simin) with :: Box office

Yes, in my country we have a lot movies, but only a few are famous in other countries. Most of them don't have the investment to be good. In other cases it is not a good movie because there is no story. It is only sex and extreme violence. Some good movies have a message and good examples. Some movies made in Hollywood with real situations in the world with many famous actors. In my country I don't remember many movies, but this is the name of a movie: The Crime of Father Amara.
