Mr Brooks review

Mr Brooks

The last movie I saw of costner was phenomenal Open Range My one of the top westerns ....... Mr Brook however explorers another performance aspect of Costener, a cold, weird conscious driven serial killer. Its one of the rare movies where you actually cant hate the bad guy ....... though he is cold, ruthless, and brutal ..... Costener plays a seriously messed up personality to perfection, and as with a conscious he fights with his so called addiction for killing. Both his killings and struggle with is conscious is shown so convincingly and cleanly that you start to feel for the poor chap. But it's also a frightening thought coz you know it wrong and the act can never be reasoned with. Truly enjoyable flick ....... plot does not have any twist n turns as such but simply for the concept and performance it worth a watch

The Expendables 2 review

The Expendables II

My my my what a treat feast was this if you belong to the group that grew up in the ninties, watching these veteran actors in your fav Hollywood blockbusters. Ex-2 works on different level, to began with if you thought the first one was a little over the top, watch this, its super over the top, but then who cares.......what this move gives you is your veterans actors doing one thing... and only one thing .......kicking some heavy butt out of the enemy with blazing guns shot, punches, explosions, body flying, booms, bangs ..... you name it, and believe me watching Arnold banging some heavy auto shotgun with muscles pumping along with sly n co. ripping the hearts out of the enemy, is all that makes this move a worth watch. The action is firmed rootly in to the non CGI catagory and most of us enjoy that. Add to it the fun, cheezy and witty one liners and you got yourself a paisa wasool cinema. With a huge veteran star-cast of Schwarzenegger, Willis, Norris, Van Damme, Statham, Li, Lundgren, Crews, Couture it was tricky to divide the screen time between actors, but simon west made sure that in the end every single star got their sweet share of kicking enemy's ass. Specially with Arnold, who was also given some very funny one liners. check this out ... 

Arnold entry in the beginning :::: I' am back 
Arnold somewhere in the middle :::: I am back 
Arnold kick ass in the end to Willis :::: I will be back.. 
Willis :::: You back enough already, sit tight here, this time I will be back ....... ...lolzzzzz 

If you are the one who is a fan of Arnold/Sly, grew up with all these veteran actors, love the good old non CGI action, love funny one liners, you will fall in love with this movie ........ thoroughly enjoyable and definately worth a watch

Touching the void review

Touching the Void

This movie blew me right off my sock ........  Its a story of two young gun climbers and their perilous journey up the west face of Siula Grande in 1985, a feat which was never been successfully attempted before. To begin with its a documentary, but shot with proper cinematic camera, which gives it a proper cinema feel. This movie is true to the absolute reality of mountain climbing and shows you something which at least for me had never been witnessed in any Hollywood movie on mountain climbing. (Though I admit I have not seen much). The gruesome journey has been so truthfully and emotionally described by these two climbers and meticulously performed by the two actors in this film. The plot itself is surrounded in situations dipped in moral dilemma of decisions made at the verge of death and despair. With that as the movie progresses, it get even more gripping, makes you ask is this sport really worth, but I guess it must be for these climbers, else why would they even attemp something like this. Cinematography is breathtaking. All emotions runs full on when the movie comes to an end. I was totally taken in to the movie .

I would avoid the trailer as it give out too much to actually enjoy the movie ....

The Pursuit of happyness review

The Pursuit of Happyness

Finally after being there in my library for a loooonnng time I managed to view this Gem yesterday night. To be frank, last time I remember I cried in a hollywood movie (yes I do cry ..:D ) was during Scent of a women and Pursuit of happyness made be cry pretty effectively. The movie is one GEM of a piece. Easily one of the best performance of will smith after seven pounds. (indecently both are directed by the same director)
The movie is based on the true life story of Christopher Gardner who during 1980s, struggled with extreme poverty, homelessness and loneliness while raising his toddler son, Christopher jr, and how he managed to come out of this crisis and made success out of his life. The move is totally dependent on Will's performance and boy what a performance he gives, the pain, the anguish, the struggle, the fear is so very realistically portrayed by his eyes and body language that it send shivers down your spine. I can assure you, as a middle class citizen of this country, the movie actually makes you appreciate your life and what God has given to you. The direction is top notch and no liberties taken. Just shows the hard facts of poverty of America and what your determination can make you achieve.
I highly recommend this movie to every struggling individual

Total Recall (2012) Review

Total Recall (2012)

Before I go in to my brisk review, I must have to say, I will not judge this movie in comparison to the original, coz it does not actually try to be that. It picks the ideas from the original and the script but add its own swing and twist to it. Fans of the original like me would find simililarities but done in a different manner, which for me works in favor of the movie. [spoiler]For a start there is no mars, there are no mutants. The story takes place on our good old earth itself.[/spoiler] The premises however is the same, Quaid is living an implanted life who actually is a product of Cohagen and goes against him when realizes who he really is.
The action is fast and pacie (as expected) but not new, the fight sequences, car chases all have been seen exactly the way its shown here. However the sets, atmosphere and CGI is immaculate, specially the atmosphere that "The Colony" has. Over all the pace of the movie is super fast keeping you glued and interested.


I would say, if you want to enjoy this movie I would suggest to junk all comparisons and memories of the original. Infact if the director had chosen to make this movie as a standalone taking the idea from the original, It might have been; better accepted. Not a bad attempt nevertheless and definitely not a crap ..... .
However as a homage to the original, let me share this video that exactly concise with my thoughts as to what exactly was the best in the Original TR.

1. Arnie action one liners.
2. 80's special effects
3. Weirdest of the mutants.

Real Steel Review

Real Steel

AWSOME. rarelly would you see a complete family movie with just one kiss and not even a drop of blood, which is as exciting and thrilling as any hard core violent action movie. This movies is packed with thrills and excitement, added to this..... is a very much believable bonding shown between the father and son. The best part for me (apart from the boxing action) was how maturely and sensibility the relation between the father and son was dealt with. Its heart warming and very evenly shown. Same goes with the fights, no where the director make it appear that our protagonist robot becomes some macho mean machine kicking ass all over, but the way its shown it still gives you the feeling that our robot is a true hero. Very difficult to achieve this if you ask me. The ending was perfect, not the typical predictable one but exactly the way it should have been

Special effects/mechanical effects are top notch and both Huge Jackman and a bit unknown Dakota Goyo performances were absolutely right where it should be. A highly recommended movie for all generations
