Now matter what kind of mood you're in, watching a good movie is never a poor decision. There are many different reasons why movies are so entertaining. Some would say that it's because movies can transport us to worlds we've never known. Others would argue that it's because movies can teach us how to go through some of life's greatest hardships, while still remaining positive. Movies give us hope and show us how to never lose faith. In my opinion, the reason why movies are so popular is because of one simple reason. They truly inspire us. The best movies are the ones that help us see a weakness in ourselves, and then show us how to fix it. They make us better people, while also making us laugh.
