Besoekende Ouma -----------------------
Ek is 'n ma van pragtige tweeling dogters, Kyra en Cairo, wat albei in hul tienerjare is. Hulle besoek my ma - hulle ouma - een maal per maand, en hulle haat dit absoluut! Hulle vind dit 'vervelend', want daar is altyd niks om te doen nie. Dit is wanneer ons beste vriend 'tegnologie' 'n belangrike rol speel. Hulle vertrou op hul slimfone om hul vervelingsprobleem op te los - wat het tegnologie op ons jeug gebring? Met betrekking tot die bostaande krisis, het ek 'n nuwe  restaurant twee blokke van die huis af besoek, en ek was verbaas oor wat ek gesien het! 'N Gesin van vyf (twee tieners, twee ouers en 'n kleuter) het om die etenstafel gestaan en kyk na die spyskaart. 'N Paar oomblikke nadat hulle bestellings geplaas was, het die oudste dogter vriendelik die kelnerin gevra vir die Wi-Fi-wagwoord. So gou as wat sy verbind was, het die pa en die res van die familie aan mekaar gekoppel, en op 'n oomblik het almal hul oë op hul selfone vasgemaak. Vir hul hele aandete, selfs wanneer die kos aangebring het, was daar geen vorm van kommunikasie of interaksie tussen hulle totdat hulle die rekening betaal het nie, en het die restaurant verlaat - besoekende ouma! Dit het my laat besef hoeveel tegnologie die verband binne families gesluit het. Tegnologie beïnvloed families op 'n daaglikse basis. Kinders is nes kitsboodskappe en kyk altyd na hul sosiale media, nie net by die huis nie, maar in die motor, restaurant - oral en oral. 'N Studie het gerapporteer dat familietyd nie geraak is toe tegnologie vir skool gebruik was nie, maar dit het gesins kommunikasie getref as dit om sosiale redes gebruik word. Kinders is egter nie heeltemal skuldig nie. Na my mening word ouers as die wortel van die probleem beskou, aangesien hulle dit op hulself neem om in 'n sellulêre netwerkwinkel te stap en 'n duur slimfoon vir hul kinders te koop. Die beste manier om hierdie probleem te bekamp, is om ons kinders te dissiplineer en grense te stel wat nie oorgesteek kan word nie. Leer hulle nie om anti-sosiaal te word nie, maar belangriker, leer hulle die belangrikheid van kwaliteit familietyd. Familie oor enigiets!

Afrikaanse filmresensie
Van die hele fliek kyk, stem ek saam met die eerste resensie, om te sê dat Die Wonderwerker inderdaad 'n aanraking van suiwer hart is.
Jane, wat net 19 jaar oud is, is daarvan oortuig dat sy verlief is op Eugene, 'n ou man in sy middel-veertigerjare. Bo alles, leer hierdie fliek die gehoor oor ware liefde, en wat dit regtig behels. Jane was bereid om haar hele lewe op die plaas op te gee (wat sy nie geniet het nie) om net by Eugene te wees, haar prins wat sjarmant was.
In die sleepwa hierbo word die opwinding in Jane se oë gesien, aangesien sy sien dat Eugene  na haar in die perdekar aankom. Terwyl sy agter die boom weggekruip het, dui die donker beligting in hierdie toneel haar ondeugdheid aan, aangesien sy bewus is dat dit wat sy doen, verkeerd is. Eugene word as 'n beleefde man uitgebeeld, aangesien hy vriendelik verskoning vra vir die feit dat hy "laat" is, deur sy hoed te neem en Jane 'n boog te gee. Die feit dat sy gedink het hy het malaria, is wat haar laat verlief geraak het op hierdie man, omdat sy baie simpatie met hom het. Hoe meer sy vir hom gesorg het, hoe nader sy aan hom getrek is - liefde verower almal!
Die person in die eerste resensie beweer dat die film uitstekend is, en dat daar niks verkeerd is nie, Ek stem nie saam nie. Menings verskil wel omdat ek die verhouding tussen Jane en Eugene baie vreemd vind, weens hul ongewone ouderdomsverskil. Jong meisies kan dalk begin dink dat daar niks verkeerd is om in ‘n verhouding met ‘n ouer mans te wees nie , en ou mans kan dalk belangstel om jonger meisies te ontmoet.
As Eugene met enige kans voel asof hy geen gevoelens teenoor Jane gehad het nie, sou hy haar nie toegelaat het om hom te soen nie. 'N Volwasse man van sy ouderdom sal verwag word om Jane te keer om die verkeerde dinge te doen - hy moet haar mentor wees en die sorgvuldige, liefdevolle en begripsvader wees wat Jane nooit gehad het nie.
Wat die tweede resensie betref, dink ek dat die rolprent nie heeltemal onverskillig uitgebeeld is nie. Alhoewel die beligting in die meeste gevalle saai was, en ek het 'n bietjie belangstelling tydens sekere tonele verloor, het dit gelyk soos 'n proefessionele produksie wat goed georganiseer is.
Dit is die eerste Afrikaanse rolprent wat ek ooit tot die einde gelyk het. Dit was wonderlik, aangesien my gunsteling film en boekgenre romanse is. Ek sal hierdie fliek sterk aanbeveel aan ander vriende en familie, aangesien dit vol kosbare lewenslesse is wat ons op ons lewens moet toepas. As die liefde werklik is, moet nooit ophou om te veg nie. Ek sal hierdie fliek 'n 8/10 gradeer.
