I watched "Mystic River" and was amazed with the intense acting of Sean Penn and others as well. The quality on Blu-ray was great and exceptional.

All the above movies I mentioned are very good. Incendies will haunt you with its shocking climax.

Currently my AVR is not working, so turned my attention to 720p rips of 700MB only. Watched lots of good movies these weeks.
 
The Fall (2006)

The Fall (2006) - IMDB

In a hospital on the outskirts of 1920s Los Angeles, an injured stuntman begins to tell a fellow patient, a little girl with a broken arm, a fantastic story of five mythical heroes. Thanks to his fractured state of mind and her vivid imagination, the line between fiction and reality blurs as the tale advances.

Directed by an Indian. Tarsem Singh, who directed "The Cell", "Immortals" etc.

Its a very very beautiful fairy tale story told in a very very very beautiful way. If any FMs not seen this one, please immediately take a view. The Blu-Rays are created for the movies like this. Fantastic cinematography... The visuals will linger in mind for a long long time, I still have a lot of visuals stayed in mind...

Enjoy.

Watched a few good movies

Seeking a Friend for the End of the World (2012) - IMDb

A good movie that is a bit slow, but the lead actors have good chemistry and they carry the rather trite storyline of an asteroid destroying earth into a romantic movie. Keira Knightley is a good reason to watch this.

Hope Springs (2012) - IMDb

About a marriage that has lasted a long time but lost its fizz and Meryl Streep wants to save it with the help of a self help guru, Steve Carroll. Tommy Lee Jones is the skeptical husband who is forced to go through the aggressive tactics of the guru. Interesting movie, made better with the great acting.

Taken 2 (2012) - IMDb
Standard action fare, not as good as the first one, esp. with the angle of a much younger daughter. All have grown up, including Liam Nesson, who looka a bit geriatric, but still quite effective.


Lawless (2012) - IMDb
A good movie set in the days of the prohibition and a family of three brothers who are intent on breaking it.

Looper (2012) - IMDb
A sci fi thriller that is interesting (although a bit unbelivable from any scientific principles). Its quite good if you dont analyse it too much.
 
Killer Elite [2011]

Killer Elite (2011) - IMDb


An entertaining British Action movie. Story is fair enough . Jason Statham is the main interest in this movie. Nice performance by Clive Owen too. Good action scenes and gunfire. Good watch for Action fans.



Cheers.
