We were Soldiers ( 2002 ) :-

My ooh My....God Damn..this is one hell of a War movie which i never ever imagined that it would be this good and inspiring..!! Based on true incidents happened in Vietnam and showing the Bravery of Lt. Col. Hal Moore against the Vietnamese Guerrilla Attack. Being a big time Mel G fan. damn not sure how i missed this movie as its one hell of a direction and camera work top notch. Bullets every where..Copters howling here and there...its just chilling and Goosebumps all through the movie seeing Lt. Col. Hal Moore ( Mel G ) , Sgt. Maj. Basil Plumley ( Sam elliott) and Joe Galloway ( Bary pepper ) performing excellently well in this movie. Brutal atrocities of war and Blood behind every win is clearly depicted in this movie and i would say this is one best war movie i seen recently..not sure why it was not talked much or underrated , but still this would remain as my top fav of Mel G next to patriot , Brave heart and Payback.Background music was ok and the OST was sick and i didn't like it much. Posted the link below.But keeping that aside..this is a must watch movie guys...!!

The Wolverine ( 2013 ) - Hollywood made Japanese Version of Wolverine

This movie has no relation to any of its predecessor and feels very new as if this is the Origin. James Mangold not sure his obsession over Japanese soil but this movie is totally made out from this Land of rising Red Sun. Storyline in short is " Past help,Present betrayal" . First time ever , we see Logan (a) Wolverine at receiving end while he is beaten as hell throughout the movie . He is weak, pain , prone for attacks, Bleeds . mentally ill and his self healing tendency is shaken a bit but still he leads the movie forward , emerges as that man in steel as we always seen him before. Though the plot somewhat relates to his self healing property while someone trying to steal his powers to become immortal.

This is the first time ever we knew that wolverine powers can be transfused and passed on , If this was known i am sure many would have tried it long back on previous episodes but was something new. The script was made confusing so much and actually it was not needed at all as at one point it will make us feel like who is trying to kill whom. Yukio - Ms.bodyguard of Wolverine , thats how she calls herself has no real need in this film and was induced for no purpose , still she remains there with wolverine till the end as a supporting role justifying herself helping wolverine at every turn and rest all cast was just placed here & there as Sudoku. We also tend to see Viper, samurai's , Silver samurai characters in this film making it a bit crisp but not totally appetizing. Its just our Wolverine who is the only eye catcher in this movie and be it action scenes while saving Mariko in funeral , or saving her grandfather from a nuclear attack at Nagasaki . Bar fight for killing a bear or the final fight with Silver samurai are just fascinating and stunning. Not many scenes were made in 3D and i dont see a real purpose of it in this movie , feels a 2D version would be much better to look for. This is a pure solo performance of Wolverine in this movie and if you are one who is Mad fan of Wolverine can sure have a virtual treat. Rest for other normal viewers this will be just another average flick with a bit draggy screenplay in middle. Not bad, sure watchable once for Hugh Jackmans performance and dedication , hard work he put on for this film. If you want to visit Japan via a movie , Wolverine will be a easy ticket.

Anna'yum Rasool'um - My Own Indian version of " IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE ".

அன்னாயும் ரசூலும் என்ன் மனதை கொள்ளை ஆதித்த காதல் காவியம். இதை நான் பார்த்தேன் என்று சொல்லுவதை விட ரசித்தேன் என்று தான் சொல்லுவேன். அன்னவீண் கதாபாத்திரம் என்ன் மனதில் ஆழமாக படிந்து விட்டது. நான் பார்த்த பல மொழி படத்துலெய் இது என்னோட சிறந்த படம் என்று தான் சொல்வேன்.

I must say this is one of a beautifully scripted movie which given me a pleasant voyage through the Lush green gods own country with beautiful back-waters and god damn stunning visuals throughout the movie. This is a pure guaranteed worth enjoyable film , a feel good movie absorbing all our emotions to it by seeing the tender love between two charming characters Anna ( Andrea Jeremiah ) and Rasool ( Fahadh Faasil ) who make us feel they are just made for each other. Movie starts with a simple narrative style shot with Rasool friend Ashley ( Sunny Wayne ) narrating his life events and how he played a important role in his friend Rasools Love Life. I must admit that i liked Ashley character more then any for his pivoted role he plays throughout the movie and he stands a example for friendship too . There are so many breath defining scenes all through the movie but what comes immediately to my mind is when Rasool first see Anna at church under a candle light is just stunning and when Andrea Shy away when rasool ask her to stay a minute more before she steps into her office is damn cool. But that said , every scene and every frame was beautifully made handwoven and carefully handled through.

Story might be a very common one which we always seen on many films like love between two different caste , opposition , family , fight etc..but this movie the way they made the characters play their roles is sure fascinating. May be it might make us feel a draggy one with a lengthy script but once you jump into this ocean of love , you would forget seeing your clock. Friendship , family , love this movie has it all and bringing out a wonder with such a low budget is a genius work there. A Slow moving but highly charged movie except the hard hitting unpredictable climax but keeping that aside i really enjoyed this movie so much. What else would be better then to have a perfect music blended along with such a astonishing visually stunning movie , yes the music did play a very important role in this film. Wow the BGM was almost dazzling giving that extra zing to the movie. This movie has One of the best BGMs and OSTs and full credits goes to the music director has well along with the best cinematography for a riveting Picturization. Most of the BGM makes me feel as if i am listening to In the mood for love Yumeki's Theme. This two songs Kandu Rendu and Yanaame Songs stays my best fav tracks of this movie talking me to a trans state and i am sure this is going to be played non stop on my ipod for following days to come ( Gave those links below )

Comparing this with VTV is the worst thing to do...!! Because except the common language called love they both are unique in their own way and they both are the best and my fav too...!! Andrea was so perfect with her acting and she made it look so easy with her acting and Rasool (a) Fahadh was so brilliant , Charismatic with every way possible. Sure this will bring many viewers beautiful love-life to the table from their memories seeing rasool following anna nonstop trying to propose his love and it was very soothing to watch.

I really dont want to go into a critic way of looking into this movie spoiling its real beauty , because this movie is supposed to be enjoyed like dripping a lemonade in hot sun and i am sure that is what the director would have expected too. So just watch it and enjoy this beautiful ride of romantic saga. This movie stays my all time favorite.

" Mariyaan - Long running Saga . Complete OverDose , At your own risk "

First day and it was really a good crowd , no wonder they came here to see their Pudhupettai and polladavan Dhanush on screen. Being a Dhanush fan , i was so excited with the whistles and claps everywhere at the first glimpse of our hero as a rude boy fisherman. I should admit , he looked just cool in this movie and perfectly stylish. Movie starts at Sudan Africa and it was really interesting the way the story was narrated.Location choices made were really stunning and hats of the cinematography , really it made a difference with the absolute true BGM from ARR at first half. Be it the natural greenery near sea shore or be it the blue waters or the beach sand it was wonderful all the way adding to it with dhanush mass look , our expectation sky rockets.Parvathy menon as Panimalar 'a' Pani in this movie comes in as a pair for dhanush and she is a real wonder beauty and was mesmerizing all the way. She was so cool and she did pure justice to her role given.Movie starts with Sonapariya Song and it was good , dhanush dance and his onscreen performance was really awesome. He is really a natural born actor and just does his job as a charm. But not to miss though sonapariya song was good suddenly there is a line " sikki sikki ah ah , maththi sikkikicha , nenji vikki kicha , machan vacha micham " which parvathy would sing and we feel as if what the heck happened , a western hip hop style suddenly induced in middle of a beautiful song surrounding a fisherman area and then i realized its okay because its ARR and its his trademark to induce this kind of unwanted beats in middle of good songs and what ever he does becomes a art...crap..!!!








There are so many good scenes like This dialogue " Yenna Gali groundnu sonna , adhu thaan ippo patta pottutiye " & " Chruch laa seruppu theikira vela vechikadha " it was cool to watch it when dhanush says it or the initial fight or say only good fight in the movie when he beats the guy who compells to marry Mani by coming to her house , sure the scene along with the stunning bgm gives you definite goosebumps and his action was real kick-ass one with that mass Cigar look ..!! With jagan and Appu Kutti adding some fun comedy quotient to the movie , first half sails somehow but it was not entirely a fun movie or a action movie at all. Nice romantic scenes and with nice visuals n BGM First half movies at a steady and slow pace as if 2 hours went in already for the intermission. By the time we were at intermission we felt like we were expecting the climax and end credits , but only then we realized that it was just 70-80 min of movie over so far.But all said , i never expected that we are in middle of a SAW game and that this is going to be a life or death choice.



 

The great and much awaited second off started ,apart from some good scenes like dhanush acting in desert serving lunch for his friend jagan virtually or the dialogues like thambi ipppovey yenna konnudhu or when he calls Pani and asks for money were cool but it just went on and on and on ...oooooof Songs after songs after songs..they get the viewers already to a drowsy coma state. The desert scene and escape scene though the visuals were okay n good , it was like going on for generations and the BGM was already a overdose. Nenjey elu nenjey elu song was placed at right place and we are already in a worst state praying to god for the song to get over , then dhanush sees mani as she says vaa mariya vaa....then again nenje elu starts and half of the crowds already Elundirichitanga.....!!! Then after the great funny events like a sudan terrorist finding dhanush walking through the desert bare foot was a big fun and then a sea at middle of sudan was a medical miracle , i dont want to go find it in a map to validate it because we are already tired by the length of second half. Then somehow mariyan reaches home escaping from those terrorist and suddenly one more song starts and 90% theatre is empty already. While someone was getting out of theater spilled few drops of water from their can which brought me out of the coma state and i just immediatly checked my watch to see if it was already 6am early morning so i can order some breakfast because i came to theater at 10pm night. But to my shock , it was just around 1am and i didnt not resist myself anymore to sit inside that theater playing the saw game. As my opinion , BGMs shouldn't suppress or under-shadow the script or the work of director and other cast. BGM & songs was okay and acceptable to one limit but when it goes beyond the accepted point , sure it sickens our brains out . Felt as if this was tailor made for ARR and seems he is a hero but not dhanush. I just couldn't remember when was ARRs last movie which ran well at theaters. I am sure many other movies faced the same slow death as this...!! I am sure ARR is a legend , a great musician or a Oscar winner blah blah blah but he needs to learn to step down at times so the other things in the movie gets highlighted. No wonder why this movie songs was never a hit except one or two which did well at average . As a Fan , As a consumer who spent 120 Rupees this movie was never worth it and total waste. Though i just cant miss to say that Dhanush performance along with parvathy was real good along with good cinematography. But rest all are way beyond the consumption level. I can see many would say this movie is a saga , a poetic one , etc..etc..but the fact is its just a rubber-band stretched beyond its limit. Bharath Bala sucks big time and ARR best work did the opposite with too much of overdose.Mariyaan best fit to be telecasted in Sun TV or Vijay TV as a TV Series so they have whole lot of time to put 100 songs or more as they live

One's Views on a film doesnt change it all because every eye and heart feels different. So it would not be surprising if someone else liked this long saga of Haridas movie runinng for hours all together. Movie is entertainment , a art to attract audience , and so if it fails to entertain you then sure it failed as a whole no matter what we say ..Just because there are so many out there saying this is a best movie they have watched , it still doesnt change a thing on what viewers personally gone through while watching.

This review is just my opinion and i am not against anyone who say they liked it or say this is the masterpiece the industry ever seen or say ARRs best dream work then VTV or a national award winning one then let that be it . This is purely my view as a dejected fan who wasted his 120 Rupees which he could have spend on some other good movies. My Rating : 2.5/5 and i am sure you know what would be the rating if it wasnt for Dhanush. Dhanush still rocks and i really liked his acting and he is the only guardian angel for bharathbala now.

One Week ( 2008) - " A Dying man wish for seeking adventure but never dies "

Have heard about this movie some years back from a friend that this was like Motorcycle diaries and was planning to watch it from then on until recently i finally decided to download and watch it so...

Today was the day i picked this up with a much greater expectation. Movie starts of with a simple narrative style showing of
Ben Tyler ( Joshua Jackson ) inside a hospital were doctor delivers him a shocking news that he is diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer and with a minimum life expectancy of a year or so if not treated. They also say its only 10% chances of his recovery rate with the treatments. Broken and shattered , ben walks away from the hospital and just keeps running directionless till the point he reaches a Bike mechanic shop where he sees the most sexiest bike Norton with a sale tag on it. So this is where he decides for a ride , a adventurous one week trip which might give his life some meaning before he would become a inpatient for cancer treatment becoming immobile..So he convinces his girl friend to whom he is engaged to and after final struggles to takes his ride to the west. So from here on , he just goes to all places without any plans but carries a mobile phone calling his girl friend everyday. He drives up his bike to greenish landscapes , lakes and meets up with many people , takes lot of pictures , stays at presidential suites in hotels and finally returns back home for treatment.

So Surely the above plot makes us feel so good and might sound as a feel good movie. But the screenplay , camerawork and editing spoiled everything. There are so many scenes not giving that continuity feel and is absurd at times to experience it. Also the director should have given more importance capturing the scenic beauty if you want to label this as a adventurous movie and screenplay damn felt like watching some low rated TV series that too with the Worthless narration at the background..that voice makes me feel sick, Crap. This is no feel good movie rather i would say a dying man last wishes as this doesn't look adventurous going around cities , staying at costlier hotels , being with women and using mobile phones every time wherever whenever he needs it. For sure anyone who enjoyed watching Motorcycle diaries with top notch cinematography and splendid visuals n BGM will have a hard time to even cross this one for first 30 min even. Sick as hell. Really felt as if watching this movie for a Week and yaa i even dont remember if this movie had any BGMs at all in it . For me , that Norton bike was the only thing liked about this Movie , So apart from it this is a worthless one IMO. This is no better then House M.D Season 08 Final episode.

Tag line of the movie : "What would you do " /// My mind voice " I would shift Delete it from my computer " .

Y Tu Mamá También ( Spanish )

Nice movie , a complete joy ride with full of desire, exploration . A good voyager feel and nice feel good movie . Its no thriller or horror , just a nice romantic drama between one elder women at 30's and two rude boys at 20's trying to find a hidden beach in mexico. How their search end and how they finally develop a bond between them slowly to the extreme is what the story is.... Not a must watch but not one to be missed too..Watch it for a different feel.

Aftershock (2010)
Original Title : Tangshan dadizhen ( Mandarin )

This movie is about the survival of a family during massive earthquake occurred in Tangshan China in year 1976 costing lives of millions of people during this massive tragedy. I must admit that this is a shere brilliance of work in making and its real Jaw dropping watching the scenes of earthquake captured so realistically. We mostly seen earthquake news in papers and media but by watching this film , you would feel as if you were in that right spot during the disaster. Never take it wrong that this movie is only about the earthquake , it is not..this is a beautiful melodrama about survival of a family consist of couples Da Qiang a taxi driver and his wife yuan survived by two cute kids Fang da and fang deng. This disaster took life of Da qiang leaving his wife and kids struggling. How they get separated during to the earthquake and their reunion covers the rest of the movie.

This is really a feel good movie , scripted so perfectly step by step. I liked every minute of it , what a performance by everyone in the movie. Be it love , sacrifice , decision , struggle and strong will , this movie has it all. BGM was really amazing and it just blended perfectly with the stunning visuals this movie had. Though it starts with a earthquake , it crunches our heart at the end and with that of a beautiful family union at last leaves all the viewers go out with a satisfied smile. This would stay as my fav movie for sure and if you watched Iranian movies like Children of heaven , song of sparrows and french movie incendies sure you would like this movie a lot. This movie is real stunner and it would stay in my best archives for ever. WoW what a experience watching this gem of a movie ** Do not miss it watching **

The Place Beyond the Pines

Expected a fiery action film from the charming Ryan Gosling with his different body language and his cool rude boy tattoo's in this film , but turns out to be a perfect drama of Love , sacrifice and redemption. First half was real good as it goes under the shadow of ryan as Luke who is a motorcycle racer forced to rob banks inorder to care his new born son with all the needs. But i never ever expected that he would face the end in hands of a police officer Bradly cooper during a bank robbery encounter. Shootout was not actually needed , but jack did fire rounds at ryan killing him instantly which was a felony that he cannot shoot a victim unless they try to attack back. But he hides this fact and becomes a hero of that district , gets many awards and accolades from everyone. Deep inside , Jack knows what he did was wrong killing a innocent for nothing and starts to feel guilt , suffers for his action. Rest of movie is how he tries to make up the wrong doing by helping ryans family and how he rise to a district attorney position from a cop was beautifully made. Only thing is the director has left a good portion of it uncompleted for its sequel which involves ryans Son who runs out of house to live life on his own. So might be we are in to part 2 of it soon.....!!!

Too much of a lengthy drama and dragging at times , but sure its not bad at all. Very nice movie and screenplay flows along well. Ryan acting was cool and perfect , but never miss to mention the stunning performance of Bradly cooper. He is the one who carries rest of the movie when Ryan is no more . Not a visually stunning movie but this is worth a watch for Crime drama movie liker . You got to have real patience to watch it entirely its worth it, but if you download this thinking a action movie....better stay away from it as you would be so much disappointed later.IMO i liked this movie a lot and worth one time watch. Sure i would be one queued up to watch the sequel part of it.

Welcome to the Punch :-

A Worst and Horrible movie to watch..!! Story is just the old school with Police and Mob games...But horrible screenplay..Not even one scene in the whole entire movie was remarkable , remarkable or watchable. Added to this , that horrible re-recording and editing with the Dub , that UK English is worst , horrible . Its kind of mid western English and gives pain in the ear. Total waste of time !!

Guillermo del Toro's "Pacifim Rim" First Look :-

We mostly knew what the story would be about with so many teasers , posters so far. Yes its a movie based on Fight between Mankind vs alien monsters called Kaiju. To fight these monsters all world leaders unite to form a Jaeger program which in-turn creates Huge Robots which can fight these monsters and protect humanity. Rest is same as such in any other alien vs robot movies and mankind wins. This kaiju is differentiated based on Size and are called as Category 2,3,4,5 etc...Ther were total of 32 Jaeger and over a period of time that got reduced to four . So the Program Jaegar was called off by all countries but the captain n soldier Idris elba decides to fight back with just the remaining four jaegars forms the rest.

Pros :-
====
>> Charlie Hunnam as Raliegh Pilot of Mac3 Robot is only one who carries movie in a intresting way.
>> Sure this movie would take you back 20 years TV Series Gaint robot days and you would somehow start to enjoy the movie as some small kid in theater.
>> Robots Robots and robots all the way. Computer graphics is at its best. Cool work and sure more hard work went into this bringing this imaginary robot characters live on screen . Very nice.
>> First 10 min of the movie is just awesome and especially the Robot assembly and preparation for a fight was stunning
>> BGM i must say is so cool and wonderful . Perfectly matches to the encounter scene between Jaeger and kaiju
>> Opening scene and the might by Mac3 & category 4 kaju was cool and meticulously done
>> The Deployment of Jaegar for fight through helicopters was cool

Cons :-
====
>> Yes we went in with so much expectation , but all we see is the same we seen in all other movies.
>> Yes director was successful taking us back to childhood , so should be the expectation. , we would have expected more weapons out of those robots but actually there is nothing with some boring plasma gun , some air gun and a sword really there is nothing else.
>> Kaiju is nothing but a big size bull. that is just a animal like godzilla , nothing new in it or nothing different
>> First half was like robo vs godzilla a movie released in 90's and the climax was copied from Independence day. Only difference in that movie it happens in space and in this PR it happens under sea.
>> Even the speech from Idris elba at climax before going to the fight doesn't give you that goosebumps which you get during the final president speech by Bill Pullman in independence day . Yes i get it..we just cant compare two movies but if you watch it , sure there is no way you could prevent yourself comparing like this. Its open and clear.
>> There are so many logic misses at many places and there are so many funny scenes at serious place like firing a Flair over monster during a fight scene. Though we can find some answers our-self , it didnt help the movie in any way.
>> There are hardly four fights in the entire movie and as many posters say each robot is different , in movie all robots looks similar and there is nothing much differences between them. coyote tango , cherno alpha , dublindecker , striker eureka , gypsy danger and so many but hardly any difference you would notice.Common we are still not out of Iron man saga and no wonder we expect more out of our robots.
>> So many things are packed so fast and unfortunately director had to dump to many things in a short run. Felt screenplay was super fast making things unclear at times and felt as if director was in a hury .

Overall
========
We have been seeing so many related movies like this and we just cannot stop yourself comparing with the others . Or may be the reason we went in with so many expectation but when we didnt get that much , may be it leaves us disappointed a little. But keeping things aside , sure this is not a bad attempt and GDT has really done a wonderful job bringing this beautiful characters in a celluloid form . If we had enjoyed super human samurai , giant robot and many others of similar genre , sure we would enjoy this movie so much . But when you go into technical aspects or a wise adult audience , sure you would feel something missing when you completed watching the entire movie. That said i liked this move but watching second time....i doubt. Average movie worth watching if you want to bring in the child in you out. Keep your critic shoes out and you might really enjoy this . If you have kids in home , i am sure they will definitely love this movie a lot.

My Rating : 7/10

FAM Final Verdict : GDT has more monsters to fight off-screen. Hope his only trump card Jaegers would help him. Less Likely chances for the sequel

Shootout at wadala ( 2013 )

I am sure most know already that this movie is based on the true incidents from rise 'n' Fall of a Mumbai Dreaded gangster Manya Surve and his rivalry between D Brothers. Though this movie portrayed a gangster as a hero which shouldn't have happened , but still as a movie based on true events , it catches much attention to it. We will never know which character played what role until we read the true life story of Manya. From Varadarajan Mudhaliar to D Company everyone played a role in the movie and if to understand it more below link is posted to read it. To keep this aside as a movie , except at few places its not catchy as other gangster movies like D Company , Company etc and things start and end so quickly. John Abraham acted well but his muscles didnot help much in this movie and initial fight training scenes within jail is rather too exaggerated . And GOW face Manoj Bajpayee played as Zubair along with Sonu sood as Kaskar Brothers really played it well. Anil kapoor doesnt have much in the movie except comes in as a encounter specialist. Remember that this encounter was the first to ever happen in Mumbai which started a series of encounters with around 850 encounters in total within a span of 5 years. Movie is watchable if you know the true story before in hand and in-detail about the characters. Its a Average flick to those who like movies based on true incidents and gangsta flicks . For others , this is not worth a try. Ignore it.

There's something about Mary ( 1998 )

A Nice romantic comedy genre movie with plot centering around two characters Mary ( Cameron Diaz ) and Ted ( Ben Stiller ) . We might had crush during school times but how many wait for 13 years to find her back and get her , yes you got it right this movie is all about the same. Good ones , made me laugh a lot at many places and it was interesting to watch this. Cameron Diaz with her cool heavenly looks felt apt for the role and she just blushes easily sweeping off our brains out with her good smiley face, for sure she is a charm.Her acting was cool and natural , but though the movie title says there is something about Mary , i felt that the real show stealer was Ted , Ben stiller a face we seen familiar with Night at the museum. His role as some crack nut guy doing lot of mistakes whatever he does , the incident during the High school prom , his arrest at Miami on a park and be it anything he showed himself as a loser all through the movie but at last he gets his Mary back. That background musicians with guitar at every step of the film singing songs about Mary & Ted was cool n different , liked it a lot. There are other characters too like Detective healy , Pizza boy Tucker , Teds friend Dom who did their role well too giving a perfect blend to it. Even there are lot of scenes i guess are stolen from this movie to our Hollywood like the Dog on fire scene which we can see in vadivels movie and three guys plot and ted getting his old lover back for her was like Kanna Laddu Thinna Aasaiya and there are many other places which reminded me of our tamil movies. Apart from some 100% Adulterated adult dialogues and some disgusting scenes here and there..this movie stays a good watch. Not the best but not bad either. A Average entertainer and for Cameron Diaz fans , i bet yaa..you will love it as i did and is complete fun.

PTA's The Master ( 2012 ) :-

Genre : Cult | Drama

Just completed Watching PTA's The Master. A slow paced Cult classic . Joaquin Phoenix as Freddie and Phillip Hoffman as Dodd a leader for a Unit called Cause dealing with , Cult , psychological behavior and Time travel. Freddie is a World war veteran returned home after the war. But same time he is a alcoholic and obsessed to sex. Incapable of leading a peaceful life without drinks , he flew home and in same process meets up with Dodd. Dodd sees him and takes him up as his patient and starts his methods to cure his sickness and make him a better man and the bonding between him and freddie and how they travel together in life is rest of story.

Movie is awkwardly slow but yes it was a fine movie. There is nothing special in the movie except the performance of Phillip hoffman. If it wasnt him , this movie would have been dumped cleanly. Joaquin acting is okay but irritates after a while. His acting would make us feel drowsy. But he did a fine job too which is what expected from him. But frankly , there is nothing in the movie , script is not the best , BGM serves nothing , there is no picturization or visual tech needed or actually there is nothing. I just felt watching a normal TV series and as if felt it ended. There is nothing to complain or appreciate. This is just a movie thats all..Nothing to take or nothing to get. Need real patience to complete this movie without a fast forward button. If you can , you are really great. Not all would like it. See it if it fits your taste.

The Lone Ranger ( 2013 ) First Look :-

A total let down for J.Depp fans. Started off good but after a particular point . it was dragged off unwantedly. It had a chance to change into a revenge based movie but sure Director lost track of it and ended up in a funny way. Though J.Depp as Tonto satisfies with his stunning acting as a Native american tribe warrior , still things didn't mingle in proper proportion. Armie hammer as John reid was totally waste and except the last few min disgusting stunt , there was noting he did in the movie. Better than Armie hammer , his brother in this movie Dan reid ( James ) acted really well and his role in the movie was interesting and engaging.

Story was normal , nothing new related to Silver Ore , railway layouts on 1933 , White men stealing Ore and Red indians in that area fighting against them and Tonto as a member of red indians , John as a white men and a law person fill the remaining role. Robbery , Crime , Thriller , comedy this movie doesn't fit to one genre not because it was really that stunning but because it failed to prove any one. Especially last 30 min background score was horrible as hell like Disney s Tom and jerry score played on a serious climax scene , seriously sick. Theater was already half and even seen many walking out at intermission itself. If you are a serious J.Depp fan like me , you can stick to the seat with a iron heart , else sure you will run for cover. Director Gore Verbinski wasted a life chance not to properly use such a raw talent like J.Depp and i am sure he will be one crying in the bathtub by now. Except the Wildwest backdrop and people in those costumes , there is nothing much you can expect.

Overall : Lone ranger is a Lone Traveler on a sinking boat.At your own risk
