Righteous Ties (2006) Korean




Righteous Ties (2006) Korean

Story about three friends and how their life gets changed while working for their gangster boss as henchmen. When their own boss decides to eliminate one of them for their business needs , will these three friends unite together and resist against their boss plans forms rest of the story. Movie starts good raising more expectation as a perfect gangster film but suddenly gets side tracked to become a comedy film during jail break attempts supported by a funny BGM. Though it was not bad to shift its genre but yet it could have been best if it was a gangster film by itself. Ending was expected and movie was okay types.

Sunflower (2006) Korean

A convict detained for murder gets released from prison arrives to his hometown to live a peaceful life with few promises within himself. But his old past haunts him from leading a quiet life though his reputation being fearless follows him. How his life takes a complete turn when it comes to safety of his family falls core part of the story. Though plot sounds terrific but movie runs slow as its a kind of family drama too but having said that it will keep you hooked to it till the end. The last fight sequence was realistic and adding to that BGM of this film at most part was excellent. A movie which needs patience to watch but definitely worth it.

A nail biting Suspense thriller with a perfect engaging script right from the start. Movie is about Single Hard Day in a detective life which changes everything making him run for life. As story movies forward , the detective gets jammed on multiple issues escaping narrowly and when he finds that he was been framed all along things take a huge turn. Movie screen-time runs very fast and doesn't bore us at any minute plus the ending was exception especially that locker scene was just awesome reminded me of a scene in Breaking bad.

Escobar: Paradise Lost (2014) Spanish


Escobar: Paradise Lost (2014) Spanish

A movie closely based on life of Escobar Pablo alias Don Pablo who was a famous Colombian Drug dealer and a kingpin during 90's. This movie will be front a Pablos Niece boyfriend perspective and how his life changes drastically when he becomes part of Pablos family. The lead cast Pablo was done by our Che Benicio Del Toro who did a rock solid performance in this film. Not sure how easily he just fits into such powerful characters and here as Don he was just terrific to watch. Especially on second half when he shows his true nature and that little Jungle book story , it was just stunning. Though it is about a drug dealer and how is empire managed to survive those days yet it did had drama and love too. Sad is that with the climax but yet it proves how dreadful Pablo was once . After Things We Lost in the Fire  and Che , i liked this film very much and it just kept us engaged till the last minute. Will be a treasure for Benicio fans. Enjoy watching.

Exodus Gods and Kings ( 2014 )

 

Exodus Gods and Kings ( 2014 ) : 

Had no single clue that this movie would be based on biblical events and closely related to Mosses and his ten commandments but it was really great . Exceptional performance from both Christian Bale as Mosses'a'Moshe with Joel Edgerton as Ramses. But what impressed me more was the making of film itself bringing Egyptian days infront of us is not so easy task but it was definitely stunning. In lines of Apocolypto which brought Mayans to silver screen i believe this exodus movie lived up to its purpose. Cinematography and CGI Works were excellent and i loved it. Yet another must watch film from my one of fav director Ridley Scott.

Reflections ( 2008 ) Spanish


Reflections ( 2008 ) :-

What if some serial killing happen due to Gene expression which starts from the first DNA but not of necessity. Were these serial killers are made but not born ...well this movie says otherwise..!! A crime scene investigator with special skills called down to track down a serial killer who is murdering women in a particular pattern leaving identical marks on his victim. So it gets tense as murders continue to happen but things get little tough and hard for the detective as it gets more personal then he thought it to be. But at the end , it gives a whole new dimension behind the minds of serial killers when this movie end. Movie seems regular as we seen so many similar story before with slow during first hour of the movie and gets engaging as it progresses. This would not be a best of its genre but not a bad one to skip too. One time watch.
