Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens Movie Review

Ah!  Felt good typing in the title for this one. I've waited too long for this. And it's not just me. You should've seen the crowd outside the theater. Everybody was there. Grandpas with their six year old granddaughters. Twenty-something bachelor office-mates. Under-grad students wearing identical 'It's a trap!' t-shirts. Groups of 9 year olds accompanied by a single elected adult supervisor(who, for once, was happy to pick the shorter straw). 

Aand then there was me. The guy who ditched his friends to watch the movie alone in order to not miss anything. All in vain, because as the words "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" showed up and John Williams' music cued, everyone howled like a Wookie who was told they didn't have to be in the prequels.

How's the movie though?  It's..                                                                                      Good.
Yeah. It's what I wanted a Star Wars sequel to be. A fun fantasy movie that also had the essence of the originals.

This movie got plenty of things right. For starters, characters. Star Wars needs to have good characters. Otherwise, it's just aliens talking and doing stuff I don't care about. This movie delivers on the promise of interesting, relatable characters. Daisy Ridley as Rey is amazing. She's our way into the Star Wars universe this time and I bought it. Her expressions alone were better than some of the acting in the originals.
John Boyega as Finn is probably the most surprising character mainly because of how much energy and humour(unexpectedly) he brings to the movie.
 Oscar Isaac as Poe Dameron was good as I thought he would be. I've never seen him do something that I didn't like. His character is the one who's kind of pushed to the side and I hope they give him more of a role in the films to follow because he's just a badass.
The old cast brings their game as well. Harrison Ford as Han Solo especially. It wasn't just Han Solo being played by an old man. It was Han Solo who got old and while still the same guy at his core, had some metaphorical scars on his face.
Even the new droid, BB-8, was instantly likeable. Although he felt more like a round, more sublime Wall-e (that's a great t-shrit idea right there).
 Kylo  Ren, the new baddie, was not just a plain villain doing villainy stuff(no, that was Domhnall Glesson as Commander Hux). This was a villain treated just like any other character. Multi-layered, in conflict, with a meaningful motive to his actions. The characters  are clearly written in way that there's plenty of room to flesh out each one in episodes 8 and 9. Good to know that there's some kind of thought process and planning behind the scenes. That's a thing this movie does really well. Setting up the perfect stage for a more progressive story to be told.

Roll-e was voiced by Bill Hader and Ben Schwartz. Hah!

Another thing apparent from The Force Awakens is director J.J. Abrams' love for the original films. Many plot points draw parallels to those movies. A few character traits in Rey, Finn and Poe are similar to the original trio. Certain sequences and images are heavily inspired as well. And at times, it may even feel a bit too comparable. To the point that it feels repetitive. Disappointing, though the lack of new,original ideas and plot was, it didn't take me out of the movie. At no point did I not want to watch the events play out. The callbacks are mostly(MOSTLY) well handled and respect the originals instead of ripping off of it.

Yet another thing that draws attention is the way 'the Force' is used. Some instances make for really cool scenes and others, while doing the same, also leave you with a lot of questions. Questions that the film does not answer. Stuff happens that seems like it happened because it needed to. I am, however, willing to not hold that against the movie simply because it's the first of a trilogy. Inconsistency due to change in the directorial helm will not be accepted, however.

This movie had so much to do. And that resulted in a fast-paced movie with very little time to breathe. It does not mean that it feels hyperactive and is exhausting. Abrams gives us beautiful wide shots, pauses for touching character moments and then paces forward.

Lawrence Kasdan is back to write the script, and it shows. The way the characters meet. The way they interact. The dialogue feels organic to the characters' nature. It all works. Instead of having the old cast pass the torch to the new, we see the torch being lit by the new cast and the old cast just sort of nods in approval. Abrams executes this with focus as well. Nicely shot action sequences punctuated with a sense of humor that is new to this familiar world. It works well sometimes. Sometimes it feels too Joss Whedon-y.

Boba Fett of the movie award goes to..

The Force Awakens is not perfect. The similarities to previous movies, the unimportance of characters like Captain Phasma, the so-so character of Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis does a good job,no surprise), the plot conveniences that apparently occur due to the "Force" and some of the unneeded snappy jokes might be a problem for some fans.

But I can't imagine someone not being entertained while watching this or not liking any of the new characters or not looking forward to the sequels. They did a good job despite the amount of pressure and check boxes that needed to be ticked. Some might call it an assembly line production of a blockbuster machine. Not to me. I saw the love and care that went into making this film and am definitely going to watch it again. And again.

So what did you think about Episode 7? Where would you rank it in the list of all Star Wars movies? What part did you like the best, and what didn't you like? Comment below.

Mistress America Movie Review

Directed by Noah Baumbach, Mistress America is a story of betrayal.
Wait. No. No, it isn't. Well I guess it's more about how very different people often get along good. Or don't (so basically, human nature).

Tracy(Lola Kirke), is a college freshman in New York who finds that college is almost nothing like she expected. She describes the experience to her mother as "being at a party where you don't know anybody". Her mother, who is getting remarried asks Tracy to call her to-be partners's 30 year old daughter, Brooke(Greta Gerwig).
So she does. And before we know it, Tracy's in a cab with her, on the way to the best night she's ever lived, casually being passed what would possibly be her first cigarette ever by the dynamic Brooke. We soon see our two main characters sitting on chairs higher than the table talking about their existential crisis. I think. I don't remember.

"Kind and fearless", Brooke describes herself as. That's a definition of 'kind' that most people would disagree to. Lola and Greta both nail their performances, coming off as natural than annoying caricatures. Not particularly likeable, these characters are what I was invested in. Yet, 30 minutes past, I was still clueless about where the movie was headed. In the beginning, this movie felt very fast-moving. In an irregular manner. It took some time to find its footing.

Tracy admires Brooke. Brooke likes to be admired."She was too much fun to agree with." She's the kind of open-spirited person that appears in movies once in a while. All we need is a little twist and punch to it, and we're good to go. Brooke, in this case, wants to open a restaurant. I could easily compare certain scenes and character moments in this film to say, a Wes Anderson or a Woody Allen film. But Baumbach has gained my respect and  I acknowledge his style as his own (influenced, however it may be).

The addition of a certain character who is introduced late in the film felt like a plot convenience than an essential part of the film. But they way he is written made me look past that. This character who claims he isn't the boring square his wife thinks him to be because he "saw Nirvana live. Before Nevermind." slowly seemed less of an intrusion in the film's tone.

Quite like Baumbach's last venture "While We're Young", this movie provides commentary on social media and mobiles altogether in a seemingly unconcerned manner. And quite like "While We're Young", some parts of Mistress America were thoroughly fresh, while others I was indifferent to. Although, this one is surely more comedic.

"You're funny 'cause you don't know." says one. "I know." says Brooke (played by Greta Gerwig, who also co-wrote the film).

The reliance on movement of characters rather than camera, the brilliant dialogues, the fleshed out protagonists and the breezy story-telling format make Mistress America a rather good film.
The sometimes annoying side characters, the weak storyline and the misguided narrative prevent it from being a great one.

"Being a beacon of hope for the rest of the world is a lonely business."

Mistress America is movie I could not recommend you to go watch instantly, but if you do get the chance, don't skip. This vibrant, colorful movie is a guaranteed entertainer, and might just speak to you at some level.

The Walk Movie Review

"People ask me 'Why do you risk death?'. For me, this is life." The Walk attempts to prove this ideology. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, The Walk stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt as French high wire artist Philippe Petit who gathered a team and went to New York to realize his dream-- to walk on a tightrope attached to the North and South towers of the World Trade Center.

   "And with this stroke of pencil, my fate was sealed."

Right off the bat, let me tell you, the entire last act of this film  (last 25-30 minutes) are worth watching in the theatres for the 3D. I usually am highly sceptical when it comes to 3D and think that it's all a big gimmick. And it probably is, for this movie. But it embraces that fact and Robert Zemeckis, who's already proven himself to be a master of visual artistry a long time ago, casts his magic once again.

Other than that, the film is filled with 'cool' transitions and well-crafted sequences all along. Narrative-wise, however, The Walk is pretty dull. Almost feeling like a heist movie sometimes, with our main character and his team planning on how to pull this seemingly impossible "coup" off, the film lacks a strong connection between the story and characters. The decision to not have simple narration and instead cut to Joseph Gordon-Levitt talking to the camera in the middle of scenes felt odd as well. 

There's also a love interest somewhere in there and I'm tired of saying this, but it felt rushed and I never really cared about it. Then again, maybe making it feel unimportant was the point. "I am arrogant." says our protagonist. "I have to be."  Here is a character I can call selfish without it being offensive. A character whose focus is solely on his dream and how he can accomplish it. Yes, he's gathered up a team. Yes, he needs their help. But does he get distracted by puny friendships? Non. This passion and dedication, however, didn't get through to the audience enough.

"You're doing too much. Do nothing."

Joseph Gordon-Levitt's french accent wasn't as distracting as I thought it would be. But his performance wasn't what peaked my interest. It was Ben Kingsley as Philippe's mentor, Papa Rudy. I had no idea he was in this movie and it felt so good to see him not play a forgettable role in a forgettable movie. More than him, I was entranced by his character. No, it's not one of his best performances, but with the little screen time that he has, he certainly leaves a fleeting impression.

In conclusion, The Walk falls flat as a story which could've been made more interesting and engaging, but makes up for it with its final act. I knew how this story would end, but once he was up there. On the wire. 1,360 feet above the ground. It didn't matter. It was tense. The audience suddenly had a heartbeat. One that was racing. And it made it me hold my breath. Which, I believe, one shouldn't do at that altitude.

So have you seen The Walk? What did you think about it? What's your favourite Robert Zemeckis movie? Comment below.

The Martian Movie Review

When an astronaut crew has to abort their mission and blast off from planet Mars, Mark Watney(Matt Damon) is reluctantly left behind by their mission commander, assuming he's dead. Only, he's not. And now Mark is stranded  millions of miles away from help. With an entire inhabitable planet to himself. He's almost sure he's going to die there. But then he sets himself up to the task of not.  "I'm not going to die here." he says. Usually, a piece of dialogue like that would be considered cringe-worthy. But Sir Ridley Scott's decision to cut to a shot of the desolate planet he's on and not showing us Matt Damon's determined face instead hits just the right note.

I was thoroughly surprised by The Martian. When  I saw the trailer, I thought it was just going to be another visually ecstatic space movie. And while Scott has managed to make Mars look interesting and captured the essence of being alone on a planet quite well, the movie is more about the situation and how the characters deal with it. Which is also the part of the film that was more enjoyable.

Shockingly, this movie is hilarious.What I really appreciate is that it's not just one character who's the constant source of comic relief. Everyone realizes that what's happening is not ordinary. Everyone reacts to show that. In doing that, the movie develops a brilliant sense of humor. It's almost like they use humor as a shield of-sorts to hide their fear. Especially, Watney, who at one point gives a detailed explanation as to why it would be apt to call him a "space-pirate".

"I can't wait till I have grandchildren. When I was younger,I had to walk to the rim of a crater.Uphill! In an EVA suit!On Mars,ya little shit!Ya hear me?Mars!"(a quote from Andy Weir's novel The Martian)

The Martian just keeps doing the right things, from beginning to end. The movie's very consistent, tone-wise. It's suspenseful when it needs to be. It's touching.And as already mentioned, it's funny.

It manages to not mess things up. It keeps the storyline simple(does not mean it's predictable). Never, going off on an irrelevant side-plot. There're basically three geographical parts of the film.There's the people at NASA on Earth, there's the astronaut crew on their way back home somewhere in space and then there's the loner stuck on Mars. All these come together really well by the end of the movie. It's one of those times where saying a movie pleased the audience and felt satisfactory isn't really a bad thing.

Lastly, the review won't be complete without a mention to the amazing cast. Matt Damon, as you would have already guessed delivers a gripping performance. He  creates an instantly likeable character--Mark, who's also a genius, but not in away that he feels extraneous. Sometimes doing things that amuses himself more than the audience. Chiwetel Ejiofor and Jeff Daniels play their parts efficiently as well.  Kristen Wiig, who I thought would be a misfit, proves me wrong.

Donald Glover comes in for a scene or two. One of them being my favourite 'On Earth' scenes of the movie.

The Martian is an undeniably entertaining movie with a perfect blend of visual spectacle, humor, suspense and of course, humanity. It is Sir Ridley Scott's best in recent times and definitely one of my favourites of the year.To any 'space survival' film that decides not to be dark and brooding throughout and instead features a David Bowie song, I say-- CARRY ON!

So have you seen this movie? What did you think about it? What's your favourite space based movie? Also, which film really surprised you with its unexpected comical aspect? Comment below.

Note: I haven't read the novel, but I hear the movie felt like an adaptation that stayed true to its source material and inherited the spirit of the novel. So props to Drew Goddard for his screenplay!

Black Mass Movie Review

Black Mass marks, hopefully, what many of us have been waiting for. The return of Johnny Depp to form. I guess it's more of a return to making 'better' choices. Hollywood uses his immense talent in the best way in a long time (Mortdecai,Transcendence,Dark Shadows,Lone Ra... let's not go there).

The movie attempts to tell the story of Irish hoodlum James "Whitey" Bulger and how he rose from his street level reputation to being the crime lord of Boston. And in that, the movie never truly shows how he got from one place to the other. Yeah, we see him forming an "alliance" with the FBI and working up schemes.But you never see the progress he makes gradually. That's just one small issue I had.

One thing you need to know about Black Mass is that it does what it wants to. Simple and ruthless. It''ll make you cringe away from Depp's blood-curdling "Whitey". That dinner scene we saw in the trailer was spine-chilling, simply put. Joel Edgerton does an impressive job as well, playing the FBI agent who grew up with Bulger and seeks an "I scratch your back,you mine" kind of deal.

Director Scott Cooper makes sure he doesn't overkill with Depp's performances and let's other characters breathe but never leaves you wanting more of Depp. He gets the balance just right. He does not, however, let the story breathe. Or give it much depth. The movie spans over 10 years and no shot ever feels like it's in a different time from the previous. The movie could"ve used an extra 15 minutes to lay more emphasis on a few scenes.

"All the guys tended to be corrupt-it's an interesting film because there's not a hero to root" Joel told EW.

"Strictly Criminal" says one of Bulger's associates when asked about his opinion of him. Personally, I feel that's a better suited movie title. I say so because it isn't the cop trying to track down the bad guy type of story. Every character in Black Mass is a dirty scoundrel. Everyone wants in on the action. So much that Bulger even has to pay a friend of his to NOT do a 'hit'. I saw some people complaining about that.About the film not having a character you could follow the story through, and I don't know if I fall into the same category. We do get a character who has a "hard on" for catching our protagonist towards the end and I admittedly found that part of the film more exciting. Then again, Black Mass isn't trying to tell you how this criminal was brought to Justice. It's Bulger's story. Of how he made it to where he did (see how I use the word 'protagonist').

So I guess, my problem with Black Mass is that we don't see the character plan what he wants and then accomplish it. We're never looking forward to him succeeding or failing. We don't care enough. We're just riding the ride. An enjoyable ride. A gripping one,sometimes.But nothing more.

Watch the film to see Johnny Depp creep you out with his harrowing portrayal of a "crime lord".Watch the film to see Joel Edgerton almost hold his own against Depp. Watch the film to see Scott Cooper's well-shot, violent crime movie. Don't watch the film to see how it holds up against Goodfellas. Manage your expectations and you should end up having a great time at the movies (as I did, if it wasn't clear).

So have you seen this movie?What did you think about it? Also, what's your favourite Johnny Depp movie? And what's your favourite Depp performance? Comment below.

Everest Movie Review

Everest is the latest film by director Baltasar Kormákur ( '2Guns'). The movie is based on a true story and centers around two expedition teams on their final ascent toward the summit of Mount Everest. As any moviegoer would expect, not everything goes according to plan...

The movie isn't notably experimental but it also isn't just trying to be a thrilling experience to look at, in awe. It takes out time to show the characters at base camp, just talking and having a nice time. This DOES help build the sense of teamwork within these people, but no individual character (or duo) is prominent enough. That's not to say that the actors don't do a good job.
In fact, all the performances in the film are top-level. Everyone gave their best. That's something worth noting as actors and directors tend not to focus on that aspect when the film is more picturesque and quaint.

Jason Clarke plays one of the team leaders and he does that really well(we've seen him do something very similar in Dawn of The Planet of The Apes). Josh Brolin and Jake Gyllenhaal are in this movie as well. The latter not having enough of a story arc or screen time for my satisfaction. Brolin plays his character sincerely. The script, however, isn't that impressive. The narrative structure is pretty straightforward. Moreover, none of the character relationships that the movie implies exist ever really blossom. So when conflicts do arise, you don't root for anyone. You just watch the mayhem ensue.

Everest simply lacks direction. Yes, it's trying to tell the story of these people. But that's not enough. "Why do you want to do this?" asks one of them. Noone really has a definitive answer.

It IS a well shot movie nonetheless. At the expense of sounding cliched, I'll say this-- The movie really puts you there.On Mount Everest. Not once did I notice the green screen in the background. To the director's credit, maybe it WAS visible. Maybe I was just that much into the scene during those moments.Particular scenes involving a strong blizzard surprised me with how well it was captured.

That LOOKS like it was shot on location. Props to those involved in creating that ambience.

Another complaint I have is the way some of the characters' deaths are handled. The audience never really formed an emotional bond with these people,so when they build up so much to the "climactic" scenes, it never really hits home.
(No.That isn't a spoiler. You know not everyone is going to make it back. A.Because it's a movie. B. IT'S BASED ON A TRUE STORY.)

In the film's defense, I did get what I went in expecting and what the film marketed itself to be. A pleasant visual spectacle with a great cast and surprisingly gripping moments. Everest is a touching story. It's just told in an ordinary fashion. The film ended with me feeling like I should've cared more about these people.
I did however, have a good time watching it. I would recommend it only if you don't mind simply enjoying what the filmmaker has created and ignore all the ways it could've been a better movie.

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation Movie Review

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation is the fifth installment in a franchise that is almost 20 years old. It follows the story of Ethan Hunt(Tom Cruise) as he tries to bring down a terrorist organisation called the Syndicate. Which is kind of like the IMF(Ethan's employer),only, with a different agenda.

First off, I don't think it is humanely possible for Tom Cruise to age. AT ALL. He''ll live on as a movie-star till the end of eternity. Or so I wish. Because this movie is one of the best fifth movie in a series I've ever seen. That's also partly due to the decision of getting a new director to take the mantle every time. This time, it's Christopher McQuarrie (screenplay for The Usual Suspects). Like every other in the series,this movie is different from the previous movies but has the feel of the same world at the same time.

It involves comparatively more espionage stuff than Ghost Protocol and has an even amount of thrilling action sequences as well. Trust me, that scene you saw in the trailers with Tom Cruise literally hanging on the edge of a plane won't even make it to the top 3 set pieces of the film. That's saying a lot. There's an underwater scene that'll make you hold your breath to see if you could ever be a spy. There's typical espionage-spy-stuff going down in an opera house and the scene is able to remain intense throughout.
And there's a beautifully crafted bike chase sequence that's one of the best I've seen in recent years.It will surely remind audiences why they love action movies.

It was nice to see Ving Rhames return to the Mission Impossible series in a way that didn't make him feel irrelevant. Jeremy Renner's role in the movie wasn't as critical as last time. Simon Pegg's character, Benji, however, gets an upgrade. I didn't mind that. They gave his character a meaningful story arc and Pegg handled it skillfully. He wasn't just there for comic relief (although, there WAS a fair share of that).
Then there's newcomer Rebecca Ferguson, who was a total badass almost throughout the entire movie(there was one particular romanticized moment that I felt was unnecessary.)She seemed to be Tom Cruise's perfect match. She can run, shoot, race, jump, punch, talk just as well as Tom.The fact that you're never sure who's side she's on is a nice touch.

The unsung hero!

(On a side note: I don't want to comment on whether or not there should be another Ghostbusters movie, but if it were to happen, I'd definitely like to see Simon Pegg in the main cast. He doesn't get enough appreciation,I feel. Go watch Shaun of The Dead and Hot Fuzz. Brilliant stuff.)

Not surprisingly, the villain in this movie was 'so-so'. He wan't as purposeless as the one we got in Ghost Protocol, but he wasn't as memorable as Philip Seymour Hoffman in MI:3 either. Then again, I never think of the Mission Impossible movies as the 'good guy vs bad guy' type. No, it's more 'well, here's a make-believe problem. Now let's have Tom Cruise run around till everything is settled.' And in that, the movie succeeds. It's an almost perfect blend of a spy-movie and an entertaining action-movie.

In a year where we got Pixels, Terminator:Genysis, San Andreas, Jupiter Ascending and possibly many more, Mission Impossible:Rogue Nation is the go to action movie.(Well, apart from Mad Max, of course.)

Ant-Man Movie Review

Heroes don't get any bigger.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe grows, or in this case, ‘shrinks’(sorry, had to) with its latest flick—Ant-Man. And I’m happy to say that Marvel has truly mastered the art of making us like oddball characters because Ant-Man is definitely one of its better movies.

The premise of the movie is pretty ‘small’ scale if you compare it to, say Age Of Ultron.

Armed with the ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, good-guy-turned-thief Scott Lang(Paul Rudd) must embrace his inner hero and help his mentor, Dr.Hank Pym(Michael Douglas), protect the secret behind his Ant-Man suit from a new towering threat.Pym and Lang must plan  to pull off a heist that will,well,"save the world".

The movie starts out a bit wompy. It feels inconsistent in its tone and tries to show as much as it can to the audience.But, once it’s done feeling obliged to fill us in with information about all the characters, it really gets things going.Some of the plot devices worked,the others fell into the routine category. I loved how they handled Hank Pym and it’s great to see Michael Douglas nail the role. His backstory was awesome and I wouldn’t mind seeing a young Hank Pym’s version of Ant-Man in a future movie(Although, I’m not sure how they’d ‘de-age’ Mr.Douglas).The dynamic with Scott and his daughter didn’t interest me as much. We’ve seen it many times before and what you think will happen, does happen.

Now, one of the rumors I heard about Edgar Wright leaving this project was that Marvel wanted to integrate other MCU things into the movie too much. But the way they dealt with where the Avengers were and how Ant-Man will fit into the ‘bigger’(I’ll stop.I promise) universe was just right.

The way the action sequences were shot definitely had an Edgar Wright feel to it. You can check out his test footage which was released at Comic Con in 2013.The 3D,for once, added more to the movie. Especially when our hero shrunk down and the depth of field became as shallow as possible. Peyton Reed, the director, makes good use of Ant-Man's powers and is creative enough to showcase some pretty cool fight scenes.

I want to see him react to stuff that will happen in Civil War.

This is one of Marvel's, if not the, funniest movie yet. Paul Rudd brings the charisma along with the comedic timing. However, the most hilarious scenes involve Michael Pena(who plays Luis).Every line he said got me rolling. It seemed like he was improvising most of the time, which can go terribly wrong sometimes, but he made it work.

Like many other Marvel ventures, this movie lacks a good villain as well. Sure, he looks badass and the climax fight is good to look at. But, the character just wasn’t interesting enough. He was evil, just because. Pretty clichéd.

Also, without spoiling anything, make sure you stay in the movie hall till the end because there’re two after movie scenes .One mid-credit and the other, post.

In the end, Ant-Man was the best Ant-Man movie we could ask for.The characters were good,the script was funny,and the CGI looked good.It really felt like this man was running around with group of ants. Take it light-heartedly and you’ll end up having a great time.

So,have you seen this movie?What did you think about it?What's the funniest superhero movie you've ever seen?Comment below.

Inside Out Movie Review

After two movie-less years,Pixar comes back in some style with its latest production-- Inside Out.A movie set in the mind of a little girl whose emotions are the main characters.We get to see Joy, Anger, Fear, Disgust and Sadness take charge of eleven year old Riley inside what is called "HEADquarters"(it's just a bad pun, I guess.)Something goes wrong up there and now we're set on an adventure. Literally and emotionally.

Just the basic premise of the movie is sheer brilliance.It's a never before seen concept and it's execution borders on perfection. Pixar, as usual, manages to get everything right.Most importantly,the characters.

"Meet the little voices in your head" the poster said,and boy does it deliver!Every emotion has its moment and while some get more screen time than the others,it only makes perfect sense.After all,you're not filled with much 'disgust' when you're as old as Riley is.

It does seem like we were getting too much of Joy's perspective in the beginning, but it all balanced out well throughout the entire movie.

The film looks great as well.It's vivid and colorful and the animation is top notch.But we've come to expect that from these guys(doesn't harm to say it once in a while though).

What I truly loved about the movie is how it managed to be a fun, enjoyable kid's movie but have a deep and meaningful aspect to it at the same time.Seriously, there are certain things and underlying themes in the movie that I don't believe any ten year old would understand. Now, if the same kid were to watch the film six years later, they'd discover a whole new facet to their beloved childhood movie. This fact itself is a huge praise to the filmmakers as it is a rarity within animated films.

Inside Out,being a movie about emotions,I expected to be 'emotional'.And it was.There are certainly a couple of tear-jerking scenes for the weak-hearted.

But the movie is quiet funny as well.In the smart-Pixar way.There are jokes for all age groups watching the movie.And I keep emphasising this,adults will appreciate Inside Out more than kids.That's not to say that it'll bore kids.No,in fact,there was a segment in the middle made just for kids that a grown up might remark as 'passable'.

There's not much else to say about this movie,except that you need to go watch it.Because Inside Out has a little something for everyone.It doesn't disrespect its audience by dumbing itself down.It tells how growing up can be a bumpy ride and it does so in such an interesting way.It's fun.It's creative.It's heart-warming.And it deserves your time.

So,have you seen this movie?What did you think about it?Also,what's your favorite Pixar movie?It doesn't have to be the 'best' one.Which one do you like the most?Comment below. 

Jurassic World Movie Review

Damn!She wore those heels through the
 entire course of the movie.

14 years after the last,or 22 after the first(if you don't like to consider the sequels) movie; we get Jurassic World. So in this movie, John Hammond's 'idea' has finally been fully realized and we now have a functional dinosaur amusement park--Jurassic World. The problem is that people got bored of dinosaurs pretty quick. As a result,they decide to genetically engineer a dinosaur of their own, Indominus Rex(who is "Bigger.Louder." and has "More teeth"), to attract people. Who,of course,breaches containment and havoc ensues. Did I mention that the new dino is also a hybrid of  a T-Rex and some other species which I won't spoil?

The director of this movie,Colin Trevorrow, was a complete unknown to me. I am,however,told that I should check out 'Safety Not Guaranteed'. He does a good job with this movie for the most part. Although, his characters have an essential banality.Vincent D'Onofrio's character especially was just too cliched. His character's plan in the movie was just absurd. Bryce Dallas Howard was a bit boring in the beginning but she got better in the latter half.I think that could be said about the movie as well.It took a while for it to get things going.

I,contrary to expectations, found Jurassic World to be highly entertaining. Notice that I use the word 'entertaining'. Yes,there are a few plot points that bothered me, but the movie gets so many other things right. For starters, it realizes that it doesn't need to be (hell,CANNOT be) Jurassic Park. There are references to the first movie but that's about it. It stops trying to amuse us(because JP already did that). Instead,it becomes an awesome,action-packed monster movie. That's the most you could ask for from Jurassic World(this might be considered sad by some).

Chris Pratt was funny and charming as expected. He's sealed his place in the 'Hollywood superstar' category. He had some really cheesy lines(which became unintentionally funny) but managed not worsen the case. Everything that guy does is just so likeable. There are also more than a couple of scenes purely there for comic relief which were surprisingly pleasant. Jake M.Johnson plays an employee who's also a Jurassic Park-fanboy. He managed to squeeze a chuckle out of me in every scene he's in. There's also a certain book on his table which should be of interest to the fans of the original.

I wouldn't mind seeing him as the next Indiana.

The dinosaurs needed to look good to sell me and they do. It's more CGI dependent than animatronics and in a few scenes the creatures look unworldly(in a bad way) but other than that it's all good. Especially the last act of the movie. WOW! I'll say this: If you were disappointed with Godzilla(2014),this movie should clinch you interest.

Of course, the movie does not re-create the same sense of wonderment and awe as the first one. But,I don't think any movie ever will. This is possibly the next best thing. Is it good enough? For me,it is. Many might oppose but none can deny that they didn't find themselves having a good time while watching this movie.And I get the fact that since it is a continuation of the franchise that people should be able to compare it to the first.I just didn't go in that direction in order to be able to savour this movie.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHJKHAIAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
(I'm a bad person.)

There are a few subplots in the movie and there's one in particular that one might call dispensable.I'm talking about the kids. Now the actors did a good job. Their reactions to everything that was happening was apt. But the two brothers' backstory with their parents and their relationship with each other just was not interesting. Every time we got to their part,it felt like the movie was starting to slack off.

The trailers had me worried about the whole 'training raptors' shenanigan. However,I was impressed with how the movie dealt with that part.In fact, it was one of the aspects of the movie that I really liked.

In the end, JurassicWorld is an entertaining movie with flaws in characterization and narrative.Nevertheless,a lot of things worked well in my opinion. The movie looks good. Indominus Rex as a monster villain worked.Chris Pratt as the main character is fitting. It isn't as captivating as Jurassic Park but it's guaranteed to be a good time anyway.

Tomorrowland Movie Review

Brad Bird gives us his second live-action movie ever and the anticipation level could not have been any higher.That's mainly because  Brad's had a near perfect track record.Each of his works is beloved to the fans.This one's called... Tomorrowland.What's it about? I'm not going to tell you much.Just that it's about a girl,Casey(Britt Robertson) who finds a pin which takes her to some magical land.Make sense?(just watch the trailer)The rest is unraveled throughout the movie and that's part of the fun.Figuring out where the movie's headed.

I actually have mixed feelings about this movie.The mere premise  of the movie is just so damn fascinating.It's original,for starters.Brad Bird blooms by just taking an idea and expanding on it with great style  and charisma.The atmosphere of Tomorrowland,though similar to many other fantastical places(high,complex buildings,flying vehicles,people wearing weird clothing),managed to look fresh and inventive.The cinematography during some sequences are just flawless.

Her performance is surprisingly mature.

Britt Robertson handled the job of leading the film quite well.She wasn't undermined by George Clooney's presence,who was more than convincing as an old,grumpy yet good-hearted man.The best performance,however,was delivered by the young actress who goes by the name of Raffey Cassidy.Her character played a crucial part and the movie needed her to be more than just a child actor.Thankfully enough, she shines the brightest throughout the film.

Like I said,the vision the movie is based on is really cool.But,from a narrative point of view,it feels weak.It starts out pretty strong and is able to keep it that way for half of the movie.Then,slowly and gradually,you get the feeling like you've seen it happen before.It's no longer making you think about what's going to happen next.The last act,especially.It's not a 'bad' ending,per se. It's just that the beginning of the movie was so delicious that when the 'cliched' ending is playing out on screen,you can't help but want another spoonful of what you were having before.

Damon Lindelof has produced a script which does a good job at asking questions and giving you glimpses of his perception.

                                                                     It does not hold up good when treated as a story.

I will emphasize,though,on how exhilarating the ride was.Bird even manages to produce a particular sequence which will certainly pacify Star Wars fans who think Brad was wrong in choosing this project over the upcoming Star Wars Episode 7.Or,it will further sadden them,seeing the mastery he's achieved as a visual filmmaker. I'm actually pleased to know that he chose to do what he wanted to.Hopefully,Tomorrowland will be remembered for the sparkling roller-coaster ride that it is and not "the movie Brad Bird rejected Star Wars for".

Regardless of flaws,you should definitely watch this movie.It's something new.It's something beautiful.It's something striking.It's something well-made.And most importantly,it's something enjoyable.

Mad Max:Fury Road Movie Review

Alright,summer movie season seems to have begun with a pretty solid start!30 years after the last Mad Max movie,mastermind director George Miller comes back with the fourth installment,Mad Max:Fury Road,starring Tom Hardy in the titular role along side Charlize Theron and Nicholas Hoult.



Oh,what a movie.What a lovely movie.

This movie was unbelievably good.It was freaking INSANE!I cannot emphasize enough on how much I enjoyed watching this movie.I'm not even going to tell you the plot of the movie.It's a Mad Max movie.All you need to know is that it's set in a post-apocalyptic world and is about a guy named Max trying to survive in the crazy crazy world he's stuck in.It also easily stands as a stand-alone movie and you don't need to be familiar with Mel Gibson's version(you should,however,check them out as well).

What I will talk to you about is how B-E-A-U-TIFUL this movie is.Mad Max is an action based movie and boy is it well shot!This movie had some of the best action scenes I've seen in any movie in the last decade.I'm not even exaggerating.That's just how good it is.

Yes,there's lots of stuff blowing up and lunatics driving into each other;but,the way it's filmed is just mesmerizing.It's more or less a car chase movie,so a lot of the action takes place while on the move and I sometimes find that distracting but Miller gives you wide shots of the chaos in all it's glory and it is magnificent.It's one of the rare times I was actually able to keep track of what was happening and get a hang of where everyone was during a chase scene.It helps add a sense of space and further enhances the effectiveness of the sequence.

Also,I'm pretty sure that most of the stuff I saw on screen was done using practical effects instead of green screens and CGI.I have nothing against CGI but you can undeniably tell the difference.The look of the movie feels way more authentic this way.George Miller shows new and upcoming action filmmakers how to create a great action movie using the technological advancements available yet not getting too carried away in the process.Hopefully,they'll learn and try to develop what Miller has created and not try to rip-off off it.




See what I'm talking about?

That's not to say that there isn't any material in the movie in terms of story and characters.The characters were surprisingly well realized and you root for each one of them for different reasons.Tom Hardy suits the character of Max Rockatansky pretty well and is a worthy successor to Mel Gibson.Regardless of how crazy the movie is and feels,every character in the movie does something because of a clear motive or reason.Even Nicholas Hoult's psychotic character seemed legit to me once they put his view in perspective.

And then,we have Charlize Theron as Imperator Furiosa.She's probably the best character in the film.In fact,she's more of a badass than Max himself.I'll touch on that later.

Despite of all the things that I loved about this film,I can see how some people might not buy it.Mainly because of how over-energized,deranged and unhinged the entire movie is.I''ll give you a simple example:

This movie has a man chained to the top of some kind of monster car playing an electric guitar with flamethrowers attached to its headstock.All this,while they're in the middle of a chase sequence. If you think that's a bit too much for you too handle,skip this one.

I,personally found it to be simply awesome.That's the kind of movie it is.It won't give you time to adjust yourself into this chaotic world,you"ll just have to roll along with it right from the beginning.
The only thing I can complain about in this movie is that there wasn't as much of Max as there was Furiosa.But,I don't count that as negative because we end up getting an awesome female action hero that's up there with Sarah Connor and Ellen Ripley.Also,it's not like Max wasn't important enough.He was.But, he was just accompanied by an even better character.

To wind-up,Mad Max:Fury Road is able to create this world on screen with its own rules and feel to it and is packed with numerous great action scenes. "High octane,crazy blood filling me up." says one of the characters.That appropriately describes how I felt while watching this film.I definitely recommend you watch it in the theaters because it's worth the experience.

Avengers:Age of Ultron. Avengers Reassemble!

When Tony Stark's attempt at employing artificial intelligence to protect the world from various threats backfires via the creation of Ultron,a technological error hell-bent on human extinction,the team is put to the ultimate test as the fate of Earth hangs in the balance.

After what was arguably the most 'successful' superhero movie of all time,Joss Whedon was burdened with the enormous task of outdoing himself in the sequel.This was,however, the movie he had wanted to make.As a comicbook fan and a filmmaker.He said in an interview that he'd talked to the people at Marvel into letting him do the Ultron story arc before he started working on the first Avengers movie.That clearly shows when you watch the film.You see the effort that's been put into making this film.A lot of stuff happens within the course of the movie and it doesn't feel like it's even a tad bit too long.


This movie works perfectly as a sequel.We don't feel the same excitement as that time when we first saw all of the Avengers sharing the same screen but we get something equally as good--the Avengers working together as a team.We see how they function and complement each other and how their differences still generate conflicts.Good superhero movies lay emphasis on characters and action sequences.This movie hits the nail on the head in both regards.

Digged the setup for Black Panther 

A lot of the complaints I've been hearing about this movie is that it tries to set up the future movies too much.I don't understand these rants.It's a Marvel movie.This is what we like,right?References to past incidents and hints at future events all fitted into the main plot of the movie without it feeling forced and gratuitous.I actually got excited when the said scenes came up!(Maybe I'm being biased,but screw you!CIVIL WAR!.)

This movie,unlike the first one,isn't highly dependent on the big action scenes.That doesn't mean  that there aren't any.The Hulkbuster scene was nerdtastic and Ultron army vs Avengers was well-crafted as well.What I mean, is that the movie takes out time to develop the lesser known characters.Hawkeye,to be precise.We finally see him as a human and not just a cool guy with great aim.I really liked that.The movie also shows us an interesting relationship between Natasha Romanoff and Bruce Banners.Whedon recently said that he wrote the movie based on the character moments that he himself wanted to see. I was disappointed to see that we don't get to know as much as we'd like about Black Widow's Character.Still,being a character driven film might help it hold up better against the test of time.

Moving on to the new characters,Ultron is a worthy successor to Loki as the main antagonist of the movie.He is also the funniest and scariest AI robot I've ever seen on screen.James Spader as the voice of Ultron is chillingly amazing.My only problem with this villain is the way his creation is shown.It felt really rushed and I think that's because a few scenes were cut out to keep the movie from being 3 hours long.I'm hoping we get the director's cut in the Blu-Ray release.We also get to properly meet the Enhanced(not mutant) Maximoff twins-Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch.Marvel's Quicksilver has his moments but nothing as enjoyable as that kitchen scene in Days Of Future Past.They do make up for that with Scarlet Witch's character who is not sidelined in the movie like I'd expected.I really liked Elizabeth Olsen's take on the mystical character.

There's more to him than meets the eye.

The last  new character we get to meet is Vision played by Paul Bettany(who also voices JARVIS).Vision is the breakout character and will probably be the character that you''ll be thinking about as you walk out of the theatre.With the minor screen time that he's been given,Vision is able to charm and leave the audience fascinated.I'm interested to see where they take a character like his.

I was worried about the film being too dark and taking itself too seriously,but Joss Whedon proves once again that he can make diverse characters interact and keep it enjoyable for the audience.The dialogue was brilliantly written.Managing to be snappy and hilarious without being too cheesy.Very much like the first movie.If you're a fan of those Joss-Whedon-special moments, this movie will delight you with plenty.

With all these overwhelming aspects of the movie,the plot might seem a bit bland to some and might even feel similar to the first movie.Though it is easy to look past the middling story due to the energy-filled execution of it.

I obviously don't need to ask you to watch the film.All I''ll say is that Avengers:Age Of Ultron is a fast paced,fun filled,action blockbuster superhero movie that you'd be a fool to miss.

Furious 7:One Last Ride

Yup!That's right.There are now seven of these movies.Surprisingly,they've only improved with each installment.Or, have they?

Click to watch "Furious 7 Official trailer"

So Furious 7 picks up where the last one left us.The bad guy's big brother(Jason Statham) is set to take out Toretto's crew(or "family",as he likes to call it.Repeatedly).Now, Statham as a villain was a good idea but, he wasn't that big a part of the entire movie.He just showed up from time to time while other things were going on.Speaking of which,Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson wasn't in the movie as much as I would have liked him to be.He was the gamechanger for me,with Fast Five(which I think is still the best one of the franchise).So to not give him more screen time was a bad decision.

The movie tries to incorporate what the Fast and Furious movies were and what they're gradually becoming(the last two movies).It begins with a drag race,which felt like a throwback to the first movies, and then goes in the direction in which the newer movies were headed.This,on paper sounds pretty amazing and entertaining.But, it's not perfect. What we end up getting is a convoluted plot with lots of cool actions scenes stuffed into it.This could've been due to the tragic production setback they suffered.I don't know.Also, the fight scenes had too many cuts for my liking. On the positive note,James Wan does a good job and manages to deliver over-the-top,fun action sequences.

That's one thing this movie is solely riding on-- the FUN factor.It  doesn't all have to make sense(You saw the trailers!) as long as it's fun to watch.It further helps their case,when the movie knows that it's not going to be a piece of art to be admired for decades but just another blockbuster for the audience to enjoy.                         

"Woman, I AM the cavalry."

The dialogues felt like I was re-watching an 80's Schwarzenegger movie.It's got some of the best one-liners in recent action movie history.Tyrese Gibson is present in the movie,mainly for the purpose of comic relief.I chuckled a few times.Others,felt like desperate attempts to grab laughs.

All said and done,the movie was a fitting farewell to Paul Walker and his character.I believe they could not have done a better job at doing that.The tribute was touching and didn't feel unnecessary at all.

So if you like having 'fun' at the movies and were excited to see this movie.Go ahead and watch it.You''ll love it.If not,let me make it easy for you--Furious 7 is a fun,stupid,dumb,popcorn fluff movie with explosions,fist fights,'well dressed' women,cars jumping out of planes and Dwyane Johnson Rock-Bottoming Jason Statham.Which is all very enjoyable.It's over the top,agreed.In fact,it's so over the top,that it's over a second top that you didn't know was atop the first top.If you feel any of that could entertain you,go watch the movie.
Have fun.Don't be a nitpicking prick.

Kingsman:The Secret Service. Manners.Maketh.Man.

 Bond film meets Men in Black

When Harry Hart's(Colin Firth's) mistake leads to the death of a Kingsman(a secret spy organisation) agent, he tries to make things right by recruiting his son,Eggsy.Meanwhile, Richmond Valentine (Sam L. Jackson) plans to go on a worldwide killing spree of sorts to solve the problem of climate change.

As an action movie,this certainly delivers.Sure,some of the fight sequences used 'shaky-cam' but I''ll let Matthew Vaughn get away with it as he's just that good.The camera follows the action and I was satisfied.Also, this movie has a fighting scene in a church, going down to the song "Free Bird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd.What more could I ask for?

As for the cast, Colin Firth shows us that he can be bad-ass,if you want him to be bad-ass.Taron Egerton,the newcomer, does a good job as well and is fairly charismatic in playing his part.He is able to hold his own against a cast such as this. Samuel L Jackson played  the main antagonist and he had a weird lisp(kind of like Mike Tyson) which looked like a turn-off in the trailer but I bought it while watching the movie(for some insane reason).He's assisted by Gazelle, a lady who has bladed, prosthetic legs instead of actual feet.Surely a dig at typical,old school Bond villains.

That brings me to my next point. Kingsman is very self-aware.This makes room for sly references to other spy movies,which is the source of comedic relief.It also helps the audience to look past certain plot devices and scenes which would usually take people out of a movie.

Click  to watch "KingsmanL:The Secret Service Trailer"

Matthew Vaughn has definitely cemented his reputation in my eyes as an inventive director who brings freshness to an already established genre of movies.This movie looks good as well.The camera angles and color grading work well together. Mr.Vaughn also pushes the limits a bit with Kingsman.I mean, he gives us Colin Firth stabbing people in the eye.

That's pretty much all I have to say about this movie. And I highly recommend watching Kingsman.Because you will have fun with this movie.You might be bothered by a few things, but you'll enjoy it,none the less.In closing, I shall quote the movie itself--  ".....give me a far-fetched theatrical plot anyday."

Foxcatcher: A gritty and unsettling true story.

What a trio!

Bennett Miller's latest flick, a biographical drama film, Foxcatcher, is based on the disturbing events surrounding John "Eagle" du Pont and the infamous incident associated with him(no spoilers).John(Steve Carell) invites Mark Schultz(Channing Tatum) to move to his estate and help form a wrestling team for the 1988 Olympics.Mark takes the opportunity to step out of his brother--Dave's(played by Mark Ruffalo) shadow and make a name for himself. Soon,tensions arise and different circumstances lead to an unforeseen tragedy.

Before going into this movie,I heard someone say Steve Carell does not deserve the recognition that he's been getting and that all he did was "put on a nose and talk funny".Let me tell you, Steve Carell does an amazing job and it is definitely a career defining performance.You will resent this guy(the character,of course) and his dead eyed look. However, I do feel that the fact that Carell,a comedian, could nail such a role has actually taken the limelight off Channing Tatum,who in my opinion, delivers the best performance of the movie(he did not need a prosthetic nose to impress me). Mark Ruffalo is in this movie as well.He didn't really show up properly till-- maybe the last act, but when he did...

The lighting and music in this film really worked well for a story of this kind.It wasn't too dark and grey-ish and it wasn't too colorful and jolly neither.Miller does a good job at maintaining the balance and finding the right tone.Although,it's definitely not a movie for every sort of audience.

Now the storyline of Foxcatcher, I felt was, a bit weak.The actions of the characters and their motivations didn't always add up.But then I thought about it, and to be fair that's actually how it went down in real life.Nobody could've predicted what happened and things were unclear even after the episode unfolded. As a result, I could relate to the characters going through hardships but could not understand their actions.That might be a drawback for some of you.

Also,this movie is terribly slow.You have to be patient. There are scenes in this film which will make you think what their  purpose was.And the answer would be-- to  let Steve,Channing,and Mark show us what they've got. Well,they did rise up to the challenge and mesmerize me with a heavy dose of good acting.

As someone who knows zilch about professional wrestling, I was hoping to see a bit more of them training and wrestling in competitions.That might have kept the interest of audiences who do not prefer slow paced movies.Then again,Foxcatcher isn't really about wrestling or wrestlers.It's an attempt to study these complex characters.And it's hard to truly say whether it succeeds or not.

In closing, Foxcatcher is a beautifully shot movie with stunning performances and a slow paced narrative.So I would suggest that you watch it if you appreciate good acting and don't mind being patient.For me, Foxcatcher was a good and entertaining movie.Just not one that I'd want to watch again.

Nightcrawler:The new Taxi Driver?

The city shines brightest at night.

No no no!This movie isn't about that comic book character you think is really cool.Cheer up,that doesn't have to be a bad thing.

Nightcrawler revolves around a guy named Lou Bloom(Jake Gyllenhaal) as he stumbles into a new career--capturing grisly crimes and selling the footage to a news company.Soon,Lou begins to go to great lengths to get the job done and blurs the line between recording the crime and actually committing it.

Fair warning:You will not see Jake Gyllenhaal portraying a weird guy.In this movie,Jake Gyllenhaal does not exist.What you will see, is a total psychopath who goes by the name of Louis Bloom.This dude is plain crazy.You can feel something is really off and unsettling about him right from the beginning of the movie.

This character has got to be the most interesting and complex one of 2014(male,at least).It's one of those things where you know what he's doing is wrong but you still root for him because you see where he's coming from.Credits to the writers for doing such a good job at making me understand his thinking and why he does,what he does.Every aspect of this dude is unnerving.Even the way he talks to people..it's like he's constantly measuring what to say and it comes off as very unnatural(which is how it's supposed to be.So props to Gyllenhaal.).Everything he does has purpose.That's why I was kind of liking this total nut-job.He's just so good and effective in achieving his goals that you start wanting him to succeed.I love it when a movie is able to lure me in like that.It's a shame that the Academy snubbed Gyllenhaal for Best Actor.

This movie is also Dan Gilroy's directorial debut.Keeping that in mind, I must say,he does a really good job at showing us this dark side of news business.A lot of this movie is set in the streets of LA and they've been shown beautifully by Gilroy.I wonder how the movie would have been if someone like Fincher had directed it,but Gilroy isn't half bad.Twenty years down the line,when someone asks "What was Los Angeles like in 2014?",the answer would be "Watch Nightcrawler.You"ll know."

Bill Paxton is in the movie.He's sort of like a rival,maybe.But not the antagonist.That's another aspect I like about the movie.The antagonist,you could argue was Lou himself, but not the kind that you hate.Rene Russo's character was fairly relatable as well.It's understandable how her character was desperate and as a result put up with someone like Lou.

Apart from the amazing character studies and the bold theme,this movie has a very impressive screenplay and is able to keep the audience's attention for the entire duration without any trouble.The last act of this movie was handled impressively well.Seriously,the last 20 minutes were just 'nailbiting,edge-of-the-seat,won't-leave-to-take-a-piss' stuff.

Overall, this movie is a deadly combination of brilliant acting,great photography and a well written screenplay and is surely a must-watch.
