Abstract
This article examines the effectiveness of films as a tool for language learning and comprehension. As language acquisition becomes increasingly essential, many learners struggle for years with various tests and grammar rules. However, there are easier and more enjoyable methods, one of which is learning through movies. Films provide learners with exposure to natural speech, pronunciation, and various dialects. Additionally, they expand vocabulary and prepare students for real-life communication by immersing them in authentic language contexts.
