Tokarev ( 2014 )

Tokarev ( 2014 ) :-

Looking at the title name first i thought its some foreign language film acted by Nicolas cage only to realize later that its a name of a Russian Hand Gun Model . Movie starts off like Taken and Gone in Sixty seconds , where a reformed criminal Nicolas cage and a business man now is pulled back to the past when his only daughter been kidnapped and later murdered. So Nc assembles is old team from his criminal days to avenge for the death of her daughter and starts investigation to find the killer behind it. Movie is good but we can see total change in Nicolas body language as he became too slow may be we should consider his age factor. Ending of the movie was hard and blunt i felt but overall we can watch this movie once.

The Keeper of Lost Causes ( 2013 ) Danish Film

The Keeper of Lost Causes ( 2013 ) Danish Film : " Department Q "

"Kvinden i buret" (original title)

One of perfect Investigation thriller a worthy find from danish films. Movie is about Homicide detective who gets injured at a crime scene leaving him hospitalized for months. So when he returns back , considering his health his commander in chief assigns him to a newly formed Department called Department Q which involves solving all Closed cases which been sitting in archives for years and to close them permanently as unsolved.

So he teams up with his assistant Assad to find the actual things happened on that case and to investigate more about the women whose body was never found but considered a suicide. What starts as a simple person missing case soon turns out to be a much darker evils work at it. Irrespective of how much pressure Carl and Assad get into , they still manage to decode this case and gets the truth out saving a innocent life in this process. The catching point is the way they kept the screenplay engaging throughout at every breakthrough they get and the way the women is been tormented feels spine chilling. Sure this is in lines of Korean movie "Old boy" and its also equally good as " Secret in their eyes " movie.Don't miss this film. A good thriller not to be missed.

Haute tension ( 2003 ) French

Haute tension ( 2003 ) French :-

What starts off like a serial killer movie just flips upside down completely at last 15 minutes with a jaw dropping climax. The title means High Tension and as same suggest , the tension did prevail throughout the film run and Suspense element was kept perfect till the end. There is no way one could have predicted the ending of this film with a mind blowing twist and this is a perfect must watch Psychological thriller. This movie has too many graphic contents if you are watching a uncut version , so be ready for what you are going to see. If you are weak hearted , then better to ignore this film , if not this is a spine chilling Suspense thriller. Have fun watching.

Walled In (2009)

Walled In (2009)

A very different kind of thriller with a strange Plot. Movie is about a Architectural engineer Malestrazza who is believed to have murdered many innocent life's while in process of building a unique structure everywhere which can even withstand earthquakes and other natural calamities. He believed that if the building is molded with human soul by giving human sacrifice in process of walling them along the walls, those structures will remain Indestructible in time. So he creates his final masterpiece where he believed to have killed around sixteen innocent life's including himself and the news spreads all over the world. 15 Years pass-by and government finally decides to manually demolish the building so it sends a Architect SAM to analyze the building before Demolition team takes over from her. What follows is a series of incidents where she unravels secret passages , bunkers , strange designs and finally getting to know the secrets of Malestrazza forms rest of the story. Movie was very good and intense and the way they take it through was good , still i feel climax could have been more better instead of normal closure but excluding that this is a decent thriller warrants one time watch .

The Divide ( 2011 )

The Divide ( 2011 ) :-

People get locked down on a bunker with water and food supplies post Nuclear attack at the surface. What starts as a survival movie soon turns to be a survival of the fittest as tensions rise between the survivors and indifference which starts to surface between them forming a divide and rule. At one point if felt like some alien movie and at other time it felt like a pure Sci-fi movie and that said this movie had lot of scope as the story was really gripping but i should say that the maker had lost control on the script at later half where people totally turn sadistic. As the radiation dust start to impact them by loosing their hair , health etc , they start to behave strangely which after a time felt disgusting to watch. You can watch this movie for a different attempt. A average one.

The Tortured ( 2010 )

The Tortured ( 2010 ) :-

Very similar version like French movie " 7 Days " with some little modifications here and there. In this movie both the parents take revenge by kidnapping and torturing the person responsible for their kid's death. And then the killer is not a pedophile but instead he is a psychopath who had done many more killings before. The torture scenes were mostly edited for viewers discretion still its too horrible to watch and spine chilling too. Some mistakes in 7 days like Killer kidnapping were corrected in this film.Last twist of introducing a new character , we might think why for any reason but for few minutes they will make us think if they been torturing a wrong guy from beginning but as it unfolds things settle down.Overall another good worthy thriller not to be missed and This too is definitely not for week hearted.

Non Stop ( 2014)

Non Stop ( 2014) :-
One more decent action flick , a Flight Hijack based movie from Liam Neeson, He seems to have a unique kind of body language in all his film and this is one of its kind too. A Good engaging plot as clock ticks on every 20 minutes and a good entertainer for sure . Though i feel the last twist when real antagonist was exposed , it was not that much catchy and rather felt blunt the way they operated the whole thing. Deserves a one time watch that's all and when compared to Liam's all other movie , this would be fall on average only.

Godsend ( 2004 )

Godsend ( 2004 ) - " Science Cant Defy Nature. It takes its course "

Excellent thriller right from the start and just keeps you looped in. Birth and death are a natural phenomenon and Science cannot decide the nature of it. This movie is about a failed attempt related to Gene Cloning trying to allow Rebirth of a dead boy who was killed in a accident and how a Scientist cruel intention and temptation leads to a drastic outcome falls the rest of the story. Who matters most is that nowhere along you could just guess what genre this movie fits into....but everything will get cleared in last 20 minutes. Rob'de Niro as scientist was damn cool and engaging factor for this film. This is definitely a must watch horror cum thriller and a good entertainer...!! Enjoy watching

7 Days (Les 7 jours du talion) 2010 French

7 Days (Les 7 jours du talion) French Film - " To Face a monster , life turns you into one "

When we search for some other movies , out of luck you would hit on to some hidden treasure and this movie is perfectly that kind. After watching Prisoners movie i been always in search of similar movies with same intense storyline and gripping screenplay and i must say my search has won with a grandeur prize.

This movie starts off with a simple notion covering life of a small family consisting of a husband who works as a doctor , wife who works in art gallery and a school going kid. Following is how their life shatters to pieces when a pedophile rapes and murders their girl brutally which shocks entire town and off-course their parents. Unlike other parents , here he decides to avenge for this only child's death by plotting the kidnap of the murderer who gets caught in police and then torturing him as needed for Seven days to satisfy their anger feeling as if they owe it to their child . 7th day would fall exactly on their kid's birthday who is no more because of a maniac and what would his dad do to the murderer on 7th day would be the end result. Okay this is core plot and anything more will spoil the beauty of it.

This movie perfectly tests the human emotions and i believe there are 50% of torture scenes were edited out considering the graphic nature of it. It may sound like some slasher film but its not , though at times the intensity of torture goes beyond a acceptable limit yet this film allows us to empathize on the pain parents are going through and also leaves us puzzling if the act of torture is acceptable or not and if vengeance will be answer for everything. Director has perfectly played it in our minds to really question our-self that at end of the film whether to approve his actions or not and thats were this movie succeeds greatly. This movie will be a nightmare to any pedophile out there and a warning message to them not to mess with any parents by taking them lightly.

There is a trivia too that There is no music in the entire movie, not even during the end credits and also the doctor wont even speak a word to the murderer at any time, yet the intensity of the movie is damn terrific. This is one kind of movie definitely not to be missed. This will also be similar like the other movie " The Horseman " , " Last house on the left " but this will easily come into top 10 Revenge based flicks. This movie not suggested for weak hearted and i believe there will a uncut director version also there somewhere. Happy watching

Oculus ( 2014 )

Oculus ( 2014 ) - " You see what it wants you to see "

A Decent horror flick in recent times. Film starts normal as some paranormal investigation movie but it immediately switches its mode to a mind bending movie just like watching 1408 Movie. Total movie revolves around a haunted mirror which believed to have killed many people past few centuries. So this movie is a attempt to reveal its power to the world but ending in vain becoming a victim of their own experiment. Though there is one part of me still not satisfied with the horror content in the film but apart from that this is definitely a scary movie for its haunting creepy sound effects and breathtaking editing with many cut shot notions while the mirror movies the people back and forth to the real & imaginary world. This will not be among top best flicks but will definitely be a worth watch once....!! I bet watching this movie in a Tab at night with a stereo in-ear headphones will be more creepy then watching it in theater. Don't miss this film

Confession of Murder (2012) Korean

Confession of Murder (2012) Korean :-

Nice , one more good movie adds up to my list.... A Very good movie based on revenge and how a serial killer been tracked down by family of the victims he killed and how justice is served to that cold blooded killer forms the core plot. Though the movie is not that intense like memories of murder or i saw the devil but still this has its own catchy points in it. At times some things are unacceptable and feels way out of logic but besides that this is a clean and decent Korean must watch thriller with good twist and turns. Dont miss it.

Vallinam ( 2014 ) Tamil

Vallinam ( 2014 ) Tamil

Though it is underrated , i liked this movie somewhat. I feel its a better sports film compared to some worthless sport movies released recently. And more over Nakul body-language felt different and positive , i dont see those awkward facial reaction from nakul anymore and i guess its a work hard done by director to mold actor in such a way. A decent friendship , sports , college life and romance based movie . Irrespective of that i feel the close of the movie , the ending felt as if it was rushed to climax without any proper finishing leaving lose ends as it is. Such sports movies need to come more often so it can promote other sports , inspire youngsters to chose different sports line and not just cricket as always. Good movie and it worth watching once.

The Fifth Estate (2013)

The Fifth Estate (2013)

A Best political thriller covering the real events and rise of Wiki leak founder Julian Asange was wonderfully portrayed in this film. Its our Sherlock Mr.Benedict Cumberbatch who gives life to this character and keeps the momentum going. He is definitely a brilliant actor and performs is role damn cool. The real struggle in bringing out the truth to the people and at same time the problems involved in doing so are nicely captured. This movie is for those who love to watch movies based on true events and i personally liked it much. Its recommended to watch " We steal the secrets " documentary also if you liked this movie

Homefront (2013)

Homefront (2013)

Yet another perfect action packed movie from Jason Statham. Never knew screenplay was by Sylvester Stallone and its written all over it with a good pacy script. A undercover agent goes through trouble in getting a bikers Drug peddling gang arrested by ratting them out and what follows is a feud with them n how he keeps his daughter safe from all the death treats he is in falls the story. The last scene when he says " i will be waiting " is damn goosebumps. This may not be top best from Jason but still this is a must one time watch for action movie likers. Dont miss it.

Kochadaiiyan ( 2014 )

Kochadaiiyan ( 2014 ) - " Failed attempt in disguise but one word takes it to the success line "

This is not the first time or this is not gonna be the last time , may the generations change or any technology be born but one man , one success mantra which decides fate of a cinema no matter how good or bad a movie is....its none other then Superstar or Thalaivar a mantra chanted every corner of tamilnadu from a school going kid to a aged retired person. This movie is no different and Rajinikanth with his strong shoulder carries the entire movie on it and he did succeed in getting a blockbuster houseful opening. Movie starts with all new title card Super star rajinikanth with a tuned up Background music gave a complete goosebumps and was damn perfect.

Okay above said factors are said as a Thalaivar fan but lets now get into the actual movie facts.Felt the Opening intro for thalaivar was way ordinary then what we normally expect from his movie. Be it the jumping from one cliff of a mountain in horse or jumping from top of a tower to save the king was way out of logic's..but if at all we considered this logic's or gravity rules..will we still be his fan ? No filmy rules book applies here. But we accept that and sometimes we need to see the brighter side of the movie. Okay...!! As most of us know by now that this movie was the first to introduce motion capture to our industry . When Rana was introduced , the way the character was designed was way out of normal and felt as if it was no more our thalaivar there on the screen. Skin toning , teeth coloring or facial recreation was way worst to even give us the feel of watching rajini in screen and may be why Rana intro didn't give much impact to me. More over the lip sync was horrible too and the animation speed was way too slow as if playing a PC game on a windows 98 Computer. But yes we got to forget that fact , convince ourself and continue watching the movie with all the hope in the world.

His pair Deepika was worst ever irritating and the most disgusting character to even watch was Yamuna devi , sister of rana. Not sure why they induced more pain to the wound , there are hundreds of close up shot of yamuna devi giving a vomiting sensation all through. Now comes the next fun part..Sarath kumar...if it wasnt the voice...there will not be one who can identify him as sarath kumar , worst ever Character creation i must say. The only two faces some what recognizable was Nazer and sobana , rest all is a guess game only.But good thing happened to this technology introduction is that they brought Nagesh sir again alive and it was so nice to see the legend again alive on the screen. Thanks to the makers for it for deciding him to bring to life.

When everything was going horrible , there came the second half and kochadaiyan father character to the rescue..I must say this is the savior of the film. It was damn cool how Kochadaiyan looked or even how that Rudra thandavam was made. This is the one character which gave us the Rajini feel and the dialogues , acting or that Fight at the ship was all damn cool. Loved this character very much and only this character. And more better Sena ( 3rd Rajini character ) in the end , was so cool but i guess thats left to the sequel for more details. Dialogues were intense and some to mention are the dialogues when Rana talks to the King in jail " adhey Ratham appadi thaan irukum " or on the climax fight scene.. " Nadikiradhu nuu mudivu panniyachi..appuram pagal yenna iravu yenna.. " These are just few but there are so many which will give you complete satisfaction watching Rajini film.

Forget the worst ever made irking visuals , think you are hearing this movie audio on a player ..i bet you will definitely love it to the core , because if you remove the visual factor this movie is the best and damn cool. Though the father son revenge movie are prominently seen and normal , still the way the movie was handled was definitely good and deserves a stand up applause to KSR for giving such a magical screenplay. Irrespective of the fact that the visuals do not support the film , KSR write up and Rajini acting moves the movie forward atleast it felt better when everything else felt so worst. ARR Music was damn cool and i cant say the BGM was best but it well supported the movie for sure. Though i feel the placement of songs at second half was unnecessary dragging the movie a bit more impacting the phase of the movie. Still the run time of the entire movie was just 1:50 hrs only so that gives us a saving hand and prevents viewers from boredom .

Irrespective of the fact that Rajini's daughter used her fathers name 'n' fame as a Trump card for this movie , Still she deserves all the credits for this daring attempt to bring the technology to our industry. At the same time , dont miss to watch the End credits bloopers for the hard-work the technical team has put on to bring this movie to life. Its definitely not a easy task to perform acting on a closed door wearing the suit for the motion capture and to act in a imaginary medium , but the team has pulled through it and that should not be gone unnoticed. Yes they brought the technology to India is one thing...but how well they presented it to the audience falls another part and i feel they all failed in the way they presented as it was very very poor CG works i must say. Many might be telling if this movie could have been made in as a real movie instead of animation , but considering the way the movie is and Thalaivars age n health , this would have been a herculean task for him and even would have spoiled his health if he would have decided that way. So its quiet understandable which also a factor need to be realized by his fans. But still , when you are able to create Nazer's face match so close why not the same done for other characters . Not sure if i could accept the blame that it was due to cost factor or the lack of involvement from the technical team to work harder to bring the characters close to real. That would still be a question which none will take any responsibility as there is a easy reason to keep blaming the lack of Cost to spend on the quality.

Saying all this....you might be asking whether i liked this movie or not.... Well thats a way too hypothetical question , because i liked this movie so much in parts irrespective of the fact i hated First half visuals totally. Everyone say that we need to encourage this new technology and that this movie needs to be celebrated...so this leaves a question in my mind that if the same movie the main character of rajinikanth replaced by vadivelu or abbas or prasanth , will people still celebrate the technology ? Why are we not open to admit that its the Rajini factor which pulls audience as a magnet to the theaters but not the introduction of technology. And as a rajini fan , ignoring some things , excluding some expectations , convincing myself at few things , adjusting myself at specific areas i did enjoy this movie and this is definitely a one time watch for sure at-least . This statement is as a Fan but if you are one normal movie buff , then i might have to revisit my above statement because its a try , a attempt which definitely accepted and noticed , but a failed attempt for sure in eyes of general audience.

This movie opened a gateway to new technology and i hope we will develop better movies from here on...and this Movie also leaves a way to its sequel ,so lets expect the team correct their mistakes and bring us a crystal clear experience. Above said is all my opinion only...

The Amazing Spiderman 2

The Amazing Spiderman 2 ( 2014 ) :-

First thing first...watching any superhero movie in a IMAX screen will always look extraordinary and this movie is no exception. But that said first half of movie did have a brilliant visuals and mind blowing stunt sequences but it didnot last for long. Not sure who picked up Andrew garfield to play as peter parker but seems its a dumb choice made as he knows no acting and horrible expressions everywhere which never looked natural. May be he is been saved by the mask he wears but off the mask he is literally injustice to the character. Seems only Tobey Maguire who could bring the real spiderman feel . This movie length is long and I felt th first half was somewhat better but as it went not it was totally doesnt make any sense and felt as if they wanted to drag a movie for name sake. Spidy dad would upload a data to Roosevelt and almost half the movie they keep it as big secret but when we really come to know at second half , you might not control ur laugh . Also spidy step mother will tell a secret to peter when he compells..wow a mind-blowing secret it was..felt just crap. Also the last scene when a robot tried to attack police , people would be standing around and clapping as if watching a cricket match is pure nonsence and same would happen during electro introduction. So if you just want to watch a superhero movie just for visuals and not giving importance to logics or story thrn go for it.

Overall there are so many scenes which didnot addup and spending 600Rs per ticket for this movie is no worth. No value for money.

The Objective ( 2008 )

The Objective ( 2008 ) :-

One of wonderful thriller movie kinda documentary type not completely though but sure is a very engaging film from start. I seen this movie long time back and couldnt realize at first time i looked at it couple of weeks back but when i tried watching it , i was able to recollect this osm movie which deals with unexplained phenomenon happened in Afgan mountains. Its about the Vimanas which is largely spoken in Hindu mythology and it was gossiped that there was a 5000 year old vinama which was found beneath mountains of Afghanistan and unexplained disappearance of all soldiers who went in search of it. Though the actual theory is quite different , in this film there are vinmas flying all around the mountains but not beneath it and also this movie also explains the strange things the soldiers seen or experienced during their hiking through mountains in search of hot spot. I would highly recommend this movie but before that do spend some time in search of real articles about vinamas in Afghanistan to understand it better which will greatly help while watching this movie. This is one excellent movie not to be missed....

Reference link : http://jimmyprophet.wordpress.com/2011/02/12/vimana-ufo-found-in-cave-in-afghanistan/

Sakula vimana , sundara vinama and even we see so many vimanas in top of temple dome .These are very limited or rare movies which talks about it and those who are really interested in knowing more about this legend can watch and have fun.

Doll Master ( 2004 ) Korean

Doll Master ( Korean ) :-

Every Doll has a soul and when it stays with a master for long , it creates a close bond between them which even a death cannot separate...!!! We seen so many movies like Chucky , Gingerdead Man , germlins etc...based on Dolls but this movie is kinda completely different...!!! When a doll is orphaned by the master , there is high chances that the Despair doll can avenge her master for his\her action and this movie is one such kind..!! Movie starts off very slow but as through its run-time it picks up the scare factor and at one point it is spine chilling to the core.More then a horror movie i would call this as a Thriller . Felt similar to House of Wax though. Worth a watch

Legend of Hercules ( 2014 )

Legend of Hercules ( 2014 )

One of my favorite stories spoiled by worst casting totally shattered and smacked. Irritating to see the way lead characters performed and there is no one good thing about this movie apart from one or two visual effects scenes during fights. Seems they still haven't learned anything from Gladiator or troy or 300 or whatever...... Sad to see so much money wasted on these films with no directional value .Clash of titans is far better.... Total time waste

Acacia ( 2003 ) Korean

Acacia ( 2003 ) Korean :-

A very slow paced but creepy Horror movie ..!! Complete movie revolves around a tree and this is one good example how a horror movie can be made in much simple style with no ghosts or showoffs yet with full intensity and spine chilling moments.
.
While watching this film , i kept on having a nostalgic feel of watching the similar scenes with similar concept somewhere else...!! Though the ending is much twisted but to my shocking there was already a similar kind of movie which released in Telugu in 1996 itself followed by re-release in Tamil and i guess in Hindi too... This Korean version might have given some own touch to it..but the core plot and most of scenes like the dead people coming alive , the tree and people around it...that Paintings with a family where in its not there in Korean version..but when u watch it closely you would definitely find many similarities..

Yaaa and that movie name is RGV's DEYYAM ( 1996 ) of JD Chakravarthy and in Tamil Pei i guess.....Just give it a try and analyze yourself....But if you haven't watched above indian movies , for sure you would like ACACIA to the core for its concept...!! Worth watching....

How far would you go to get answers to something what you need ...... What a movie...So much refreshing...Such good feelers...Captivating moments and stunning visuals at many places...Definitely a mind blowing film for sure....They call it Zoned out , we call it living the dream......One place where none ask questions or we are answerable to one...Loved it every single minute..Was just osm

Them ( 2006 ) - " iLs" (Romanian)

Them ( 2006 ) - " iLs" (Romanian)

" We just want to play! Why won't you ley us? Let us! Will you let us? "

First catching thing from this movie is that this is based on true incidents. As movie starts with a road side accidents and events following it , we will be left clueless if this is a horror story or a perfect thriller . But as it unfolds when story revolves around a teacher Clementine and his boyfriend Lucas who live in a villa on a remote village near Buharest. Their normal life takes a turn in just one night when strange events start to occur in their home . From then on it becomes a hide and seek from the entity with their own life at stake.

Whats best about this movie is its suspense element supported by haunting sound effects and every frame will be spine chilling for sure. It will be a surprise at the end to see what those entity are and would be more shocking to know that these incidents happened in real time. This is for sure one good thriller not to be missed. Have fun and get thrilled....

13 Sins ( 2014 )

13 Sins ( 2014 ) - " Anyone can be made into a monster "
This movie is been sleeping in Hard-disk from the time it was downloaded , but when i decided to watch this movie i was totally shocked and felt bad to miss such a intriguing thriller so long. 13 sins 13 challenges and by the time you complete the last step you are in no point of return and you are no more the same. The best part is that they show it as if these events been happening from many years from ages of forefathers where they say it all started from Rome. These organized group select people who are desperate for help and make them fall as a prey for their game. Similar way this movie is about our Protagonist Elliot and how he gets involved in this 13 challenges changing his life forever and his struggle to get out of this spider web has been wonderfully portrayed. Screenplay was damn cool , never lets you down at any minute and runs at perfect phase from start keeping us engaged every minute. Sure this is one movie not to be missed for thriller movie likers and irrespective of it being underrated , you would be rather surprised with what its gonna provide you with. Dont miss it.

Purge ( 2013 )

Purge ( 2013 ) - " One Night a Year, Nothing Is Illegal "

Never expected to see movie with such a plot and a very rare concept. Movie kick-starts immediately as soon as the title card ends and that's where it would start to hook you upto it. What if one day in a year , people are given freedom to kill anyone where all crime is legal for 12 hours of that day from 7pm till 7am which is called Purge. Whatever happens during that time will be out of any crime records and there will be no emergency services available during this 12 hours . Only way people keep them-self safe from purge is to secure their home with security equipments and safety weapons. The important thing is that people welcome this Purge as some festival so they could keep their anger , revenge , grudge on hold within them-self till this moment arrives and because of which they feel crime rate has drastically reduced.

This movie revolves around James sandin family who made a great fortune selling Security equipments and stays as a white collar between many riches. But to some socking , on the day of purge his family becomes target of this event and how James saves his family from this purge killers becomes rest of the story. What matters is how they captured every scene as if injecting fear into us slowly. Definitely one of finest thrillers out there and its so engaging throughout. If you liked "You're Next " sure you will like this too...Dont miss it.

Legend ( 2014 ) Telugu

Legend ( 2014 ) Telugu :-

Movie directed by Boyapati Srinu starring Nandamuri Balakrishna in it .Just had a chance to watch this film in theater .Lets quickly go to cons and pros of the film.

Cons :-
=====

1) First drawback which you might immediately notice is number of songs placed every 15 min interval which is too taxing.
2) Music was way too horrible and noisy. Not a good one from Devi Sri Prasad. Total waste OST's
3) A usual way of movie opening which been followed by tollywood century after century with no new tries. Very routine.
4) Considering the age , Balakrishna did try hard for dance steps but was worst at every song , choreo totally sucks
5) Normally there will be some illogical or unreal scenes in most of balaiyas film and even this movie is not a exception. Though the first character gets shot by a Shotgun , still that said there are no bullets or guns which can hit balaya's. Even people have guns they dont use against him and rather they will come running to him to fight and get killed. This seem a never changing logic in his films. Just reminded of Captains movie's :)
6) The important lead old lady character didnot give enough impact to the movie .
7) Political propaganda can be noticed every where in the movie . It was a clear agenda and a indirect message to the audience.Many dialogues supports that.
8) Most of the punch dialogues are on english. Some didnot seem that real and not mingle well with the movie.
9) Logic skips are there for sure at many places.

Pros :-
=====

1) Whatever people make fun of his films , there is none who can really deliver dialogues like Balakrishna.This movie is a lions roar and it was Balaiyaa all the way. Such a powerful acting from start to end. Full of energy.
2) Mass dialogues everywhere giving complete goosebumps. Powerful for this movie
3) Few stunts were excellently captured and especially the action sequence before intermission was shot like 300 Fight scene.
4) Second half when the second main character is introduced as Jaidev was the best this movie had. His outlook was damn cool with a OM tattoo in his neck was very new and stylish . His fierce action and his dialogue delivery would attract you in second half.
5) Jagapathi Babu gave a equally stunning performance and deserves a applause too.
6) There are so many goosebumps scenes like the first fight & dialogue when Krishna comes from Dubai to india or when Jaidev meets Central minister for talks & says a small train story example or when he goes into to Jagapathi babu home when he gets released in bail and even that action sequence in railway station lines we are powerful and massive.
7) Background music was equally dazzling and perfectly supporting such a powerful character.

Overall : This movie is for mainstream audience only , those who want to watch movie for entertainment can sure enjoy this film a lot. This was yet again a promising performance next to his super-hit movie SIMHA and we can even say this as SIMHA 2 for his powerful script and storyline. Screenplay was damn cool except those unwanted song tracks everywhere , it was still engaging. Definitely it will be a virtual treat for Balaiyya fans for sure and for his followers who want him into a political party. Seeing this film , we never know if that could be a possibility even. Keeping that aside , its sure a decent film from him .Caution : Donot go with huge expectation and get yourself into a huge disappointment , its a tailor made for mass audience and its no different from other balaiya movies surrounding faction and violence. That said a good entertainer for sure. A Average movie worth for money. Give it a try at your own risk.

Snow-piercer ( 2013 )

Snowpiercer - "Take this ride and have Once in a life time experience"

Movie was damn fascinating and riveting with such a intriguing unique plot . We have only handful of movies revolving around Dystopian era and this would sure stay among top five best in my list. End of world due to actions taken against global warming and the only or the last hope for mankind is this fully equipped Train called " Snow-piercer " and about the life of people inside this train . They are divided as upper class people in front section and lower class people in tail section. A revolution sparks among both these classes and what follows after that makes a pitch perfect story for such a classy movie.

The first thing which would capture our eyes immediately is its stunning visuals and damn charismatic. Its this cinematography which stands upfront where the lead characters like Chris Evans, Ed Harris are all overshadowed by this dazzling visuals . As revolution begins and they start to move from one compartment to the other from tail section , we might start to feel the nostalgia , the joy as if we are playing xbox moving one level after the after. Actions were cool ,stylish and highly charged but yet was insightful to see what each compartment holds keep our expectation high all the time like water compartment , aquarium , meat storage , school , pool , sushi counter , discotheque and so on which were just comical giving us a fantasy feel.....Its a whole world out there in one single train at a stretch. Though that said i am not completely satisfied with the ending as i expected somewhat more intense one or say a bit logical one but was too cliche ridden. Fusing the train and killing the only survivors remaining in earth is sad and kind of unacceptable. Yet that said it was a different ending and Gillion-Wilford partnership was a surprise , a unexpected twist for sure.

I been a fan of Joon-ho Bong from the day i started to watch his films like memories of murder , mother , host etc..and being his first movie in English i must say he didn't let down this time too proving his talent yet again. Entire film in just a train is cool and amazing. I do wait for Noah movie too which relates to doomsday and this is sure a virtual treat for fans who like such kind of Dystopian movies or Doomsday movies. This movie is pure fun and not to be missed. Just take the ride and enjoy the show while this super fast killer pierce the snow mercilessly. Have fun watching.

Trivia : This is based on the French graphic novel "Le Transperceneige". Director Joon-ho Bong discovered the comic in late 2004 during pre-production of The Host (2006), and was fascinated by the concept of people struggling on the train for survival. The drawings in the tail section of Snowpiercer were illustrated by Jean-Marc Rochette, the original comic artist of the graphic novel Le Transperceneige.

Das Letzte Schweigen - German ( 2010 ) The Silence

Das Letzte Schweigen - German ( 2010 ) The Silence :-

A Perfect slow paced Crime investigation thriller in lines of The Hunt , Prisoners . This movie is about a Pedophile Murderer killing a innocent girl during 80's while his friend help him to cover up the murder. And after 23 years how those incidents comes back in life to haunt them forms the core plot of the story.

Banshee fame Procter (a) Ulrich Thomsen does a main character in this film and Timo Friedrich as his friend . The most interesting thing in this movie is how they swindle the characters in this film keeping us guessing at every turn and the most catching point at the end is that conclusion is left to viewers discretion . Its quiet puzzling though we might think that the murderer all points to one person at the last but still make you feel that there are chances that the actual murderer is someone else which could be even the mother of first victim for being the reason the second murder was not similar as the first in case of a pedophile involvement. Also how Timo suffers with Guilt through his years of survival and still his obsession towards the video's is well captured. A Very nice thriller movie not to be missed and enjoy decoding yourself with the conclusion.

Keith ( 2008 )

Keith ( 2008 )
The First thing which would immediately strike you is that mind blowing BGM Score throughout the movie and it just would feel fantastic. This is a altered version of " A walk to remember " movie with some minor changes and this is all about love between Keith and Natalie. At first for some point of time , we would be so angry with the way Keith was behaving until the last few minutes before the ending were everything is revealed giving us a bit of relief. Having said that Natalie had gone through so much of pain due to Keith behavior but he had his own reason to push her way which was understandable. Though these reasons and Keith weird behavior couldn't convince me , yet this movie had many feel good moments and sure can enjoy watching especially with Stunning BGM's throughout. . Dont miss it , its worth watching once.

Natalie: I don't... I don't care where you're gonna be next year. I don't care if you're crazy. God, I just know I wanna be with you. I don't understand what you're doing. It seems so pointless, I mean everything... It just seems pointless but when I'm with you it's different. I don't know why.

Keith: Wake up, Natalie. Don't you see what happened here? You had a beautiful life, and I had shit. I hated your guts. I wanted to take you down, I wanted to make you as miserable as I am, and that is exactly what I did. Now, how's that for a goodbye?

Natalie: Pretty lame.

Keith: Face it, Anderson, I screwed you. I screwed you big time.

Natalie: So you screwed me. So what? Me? I made love to you.

Keith: I had it all figured out, so I cut out a little early? Who cares? It's probably a good thing. Life sucks, anyway. Then I met you, and it got weird. And you were so amazing. And I...

Natalie: What? What?

Keith: I just wanted a little more time. So all in all, I'd say you're the worst thing that's ever happened to me. Goodbye, partner.

Natalie: I'm staying with you until you leave. I don't care how long we have. Get that through your thick skull, will you.
