Re: The Movie I Liked

Pawn-
A good one time watch. Story is simple of a diner robbery gone wrong.
Rating - 3/5

The Hunger Games: catching fire-
I was expecting more from this one. The pace is a bit slow and drama is more than action. Nonetheless was entertaining except for Z climax which was very abrupt.
Rating - 4/5

Last Love [2013]

Last Love (2013) - IMDb


A good Drama movie. Story is very very slow and okay, not that great, but some outstanding performance by Michael Caine and a supporting performance by Clmence Posy. Very good cinematography at some cool locations in Paris. Good watch.




The Secret Life of Walter Mitty [2013]

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) - IMDb


A good Comedy/Drama movie. Story is okay, but Ben Stiller's performance and his characters sensibilities makes the movie very enjoyable. Good cinematography.




12 Years a Slave [2013]

12 Years a Slave (2013) - IMDb


A very good emotional Drama/History movie. Story is very good and based on true events. And the story is really emotional and touching. Fantastic performance by Chiwetel Ejiofor as the slave. Michael Fassbender was good in his supporting role. Guest appearance'ish performance by Paul Giamatti and Brad Pitt adds to the movie. Fantastic cinematography and some very good background score. Worth a watch for all.




Cheers.

GRAVITY ............. Visually Stunning, Breathtaking pace, great performances, super absorbing background score and you got yourself GRAVITY. What a movie. Plot was plain, straight and simple. An accident that triggers a chain reaction of catastrophic events that the astronauts have to fight to save them selves .....Again, technically I am not going to challenge this, as suspension of belief is always there, but SPACE.... man I have never seen a move that depicts that strange, monotonous, lonely, eerie feeling of space, backed up with some solid background score. 10 min in to the movie and, after that you will not let your clenching fists go ... its that gripping. The camera work is phenomenal in giving the 3D, feeling, of how it might appear to you when you are spinning in space. Seriously camera work was just something on a new level. Performances were not bad either. Over all great movie ......solid 7.5/10

Watched The Return

The Return (2003) - IMDb

Truly exceptional movie.

Ben Affleck is one hell of a director, as against how bad an actor he has been termed to be. I have seen all his 3 directed movies, Argo, The Town and Gone baby Gone and Gone baby Gone being my fav.

Hello Sam, I just wanted to thank you recommending "Gone Baby Gone"... Just finished watching this movie few minutes back and I know what I saw... A Masterpiece...
I was alone, not able to catch sleep, not able to think about anything... and then started watching "Gone Baby Gone" and what a movie... I was really waiting for such movie which tests a man's emotion at its best without ridiculing his thoughts... And this movie is the one... which happens with me when I watch movies like Shawshank, Swades, Anand etc...

Gone Baby Gone is the movie, I'll remember and will be in my heart forever!!

Argo and The Town are excellent too... I really liked The Town.

Yeah... They're good too. Had watched them earlier. But IMO "Gone Baby Gone" is the best among all three.
