Interstellar

Cast : Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathway, Matt Damon

Director : Christopher Nolan

Music : Hans Zimmer

Story: Some astronauts goes to saturn on a mission.

Review: Nolan yet again tricks the viewers with a mind spinning plot in Interstellar. I wonder, how could he ideas to make the viewers bang their heads or make them watch the film more than once to understand the story what he wanted to show in the movie.

Seriously, till some point of the film you would think that you interpret the core story, but there will be always a twist. Even I was in the perception that I understood the story but there is a tricky part in Nolan's films as in all other films.

Few scenes were really shot well, thanks to the cinematographer.

Matthew has given another spellbound performance and elevated few of the scenes with his acting.

Anne Hathway was good as Dr. Brand.

+ Points: Matthew McConaughey, Visual effects.

Interesting points: Matt Damon played a surprising role in the film.

Rating: 3/5

Suggestion: I can't comment on this.

Bottomline: You need to study physics first to pass in Interstellar exam.

Gravity

Gravity movie review
Cast : Sandra Bullock, George Clooney

Director : Alfonso Cuaron

Story: Two astronauts(Sandra Bullock,George Clooney) goes to space to service the hubble telescope. Mission control warns that Russian missile strike on a defunct satellite, which forms a space debris. Later they lose the communications with Mission Control. Kowlaski(George) detaches himself from Stone(Sandra) to save her. The remaining story unfolds how Stone makes return to a place of gravity(EARTH).

Review:  Gravity showcases life in space of two people who had faced lot of obstacles for their survival and return to earth.

This is a  magnum opus in the recent times. Gravity was having great technicians and actors to make the film as the great movie. The acting by Sandra as a Stone, who entered the space for the first time, would stand as a one of the best performances.
George Clooney didn't have a scope to act.

You would never feel this movie was made on a bluemate. You would feel yourself in the space and the credit goes to graphics and cinematography team. Last 30 minutes were the heart of the film which would make the audience feel edge-of-seat.

This can be coined as a story with good inspiration quotient where Stone didn't give up on the survival and tried her best to land her step on earth to feel the gravity after having a hard life in space.

+ Points: Sandra Bullock, Screenplay, Cinematography.

Interesting things: Only two characters throughout the movie.

Rating: 4/5.

Suggestion: Must watch.

Bottomline: Don't let GO.

The Wolf of Wall Street

The Wolf of Wall Street review
Cast : Leonardo Dicaprio, Jonah Hill

Director : Martin Scorsese

Story: The story is about a stock broker and how he became a successful within a short time with illegal activities.

Review: This wolf was an out-and-out hilarious comedy film with all the commercial ingredients.

Leo has played an eccentric role in this movie as he always do in his films. He has completely carried the story with his humor and ease with his power house performance.
           One should notice the transformation in Leo right from Titanic as lover from poor, The Departed as a serious cop, The Aviator as a director, Blood diamond as a smuggler, Shutter island as an US Marshal investigator , Inception as dream interpreter, J Edgar as a FBI official, The Great Gatsby as a rich person and finally The Wolf of wall street as a failed stock broker.

He carried the role of Jordan Belfort with different shades of struggling broker, wealthy man, arrogant boss, romantic fellow with babes, caring friend, drug addict, humorist.

The combination of Martin and Leo always makes a crazy one and set expectations among the audience and goes beyond the expectations after the release of the movies.

Mathew McConaughey has played a vital role as a boss of Jordan.
Jonah Hill played yet another hilarious role with his mannerism.

+ Points: Leonardo Dicaprio, Direction of Martin.

- Points: Few scenes with complete nudity(Of course, those are needed indeed).

Interesting things: This is a true story based on Jordan Belfort.

Bottom-Line: Leo is Fu**ing wolf of holly wood.

Rating: 4.25/5.

Suggestion: Must watch.

Captain Phillips

Captain Phillips review
Cast : Tom Hanks

Director : Paul Greengras

Story: An US cargo ship which is lead by captain Phillips is hijacked by a team of pirates and takes captain with them. The rest of story is about how the US naval base survived the captain and the ship.

Review: Tom hanks has given yet another best performance of his career after Forrest Gump and The terminal. He stepped into the shoes of the captain of a ship character. He has taken complete movie onto his shoulders, in the climax Captain makes everyone cry with his emotions and expressions. This is an edge of seat movie.

The pirates were awesome in acting and their attire. Though this is a serious one, pirates bought few smiles.

+ Points: Tom hanks, gripping screenplay, background score.

Interesting things: This is based on a true story happened in 2009.

Rating: 3.75/5.

Suggestion: Must watch.

Hangover III

Hangover III review
Cast : Bradley Cooper, Ed helms, Zach Galifianakis,Ken Jeong

Director : Todd Phillips

Storyline: Alan's father passes away, his friends plans a trip to console him for the loss. On their way, one gangster threatens them to bring his gold back which was stolen by chow who is happened to be in touch with Alan. Gangster makes a deal with them for gold with Doug. How they got their friend back is the rest of the story.

Review: This is third and last part from hangover movie franchise. It couldn't bring much laughs as it was in the previous parts. Chow played yet another role with his different asian-accent.
Alan was awesome and bought few laughs.

+ Points : Ken Jeong

- Points :  No comedy.

Suggestion : Give this a least priority.

Rating: 2.5/5.

The Great Gatsby

The Great Gatsby review

Leonardo dicaprio is one of the finest actors of Hollywood ever. The way he acted in the movie is just awesome. He completely took the movie onto his shoulders. His expressions, dialogue delivery as a lasting admirer of his girl friend were good. His words "old sport" stands as a little attraction to the story.

Dragging in some scenes.

I would say this as a most costliest love story.

Suggestion: Watch if you are fan of Leonardo.

Rating: 2.75/5

Now You See Me

Now You See Me review

Now You See Me is the most tricky movie in the recent past. If you try to expect the proximate scene,you would fizzle for sure. Mentalist was impressive after 2012. Everyone did their best. I think we don't need to talk about Morgan Freeman. He always stands on the top of all actors across all "woods". Don't try to find the logic behind the tricks.

They may trick YOU. Be active.

Suggestion: Watch it.
Rating : 3.5/5

Argo

Argo review
Argo would stand as one of the best movies in Hollywood ever. The credit should go to Ben Affleck for making the movie more gripping with a simple screenplay and admirable direction,acting. The fake old director was very spontaneous with his dialogues. The protagonists made the 'true' story more gripping with their presence.

Got tired of watching routine movies, give a crack and watch Argo. I promise you would definitely love it.

Suggestion : Must watch.
