London Has Fallen

Among the white house attack movies that got released in 2013, Olympus Has Fallen had the edge as it had a better content which kept things a bit sensible and intriguing. With London Has Fallen, the franchise tries to be too ambitious with the development. With proceedings lacking conviction, the movie is pretty dull and… Continue reading London Has Fallen

Spotlight

Finally got the chance to see the Academy Award winner for Best Picture; Spotlight. It’s a terrific screenplay that interestingly looks at the perspective of a team of journalists. Yet it is thrilling, compelling and quite riveting with characters having that relentless energy to cover a story with some journalistic passion to create an impact… Continue reading Spotlight

The Revenant

I will have to say that the academy has given the deserving awards to the movie The Revenant. The occasionally dragging story of Hugh Glass’s life experience gets an unbelievable visual treatment through the lenses of Emmanuel Lubezki and Leonardo DiCaprio’s stunning portrayal along with the uncompromised making style of Alejandro Inarritu adds more quality… Continue reading The Revenant

The movie happens mostly in the darkness and seeing all these mid sea rescue operations on the big screen will definitely increase your fear about sea especially in the night. As a cinema, it doesn’t have a completely inspiring… Continue reading The Finest Hours

The 5th Wave

I haven’t read the book based on which the movie The 5th Wave was made, but even without having any knowledge about the characters, I was able to guess the story line and that according to me is the biggest low point of The 5th Wave. Directed by J Blakeson, this alien invasion story is… Continue reading The 5th Wave

Joy

The ambience of David O Russell’s Joy is much similar to Silver Linings Playbook. But the joy of what happens towards the end is more of a thrilling one in the case of Joy (SLP was more on the feel good side). With Jennifer Lawrence delivering a superb performance as the title protagonist, Joy is… Continue reading Joy

The Danish Girl

The character of Gerda Wegner really moved me a lot because of the love she had for her life partner. Based on the life story of Danish painter Einar Wegener, The Danish Girl has that material in it to make you think about the definition of true love that lies beyond mere possessiveness. With Eddie… Continue reading The Danish Girl
