Movies last Week

Last week watched 5 movies..Started with
The Bank Job (7/10). I love British movies :) The real punch of the movie is that it is based on a true incident. The movie is not in the league of Italian Job or Oceans 11, but still it can bind you for a period of 2 hrs. The movie is at times funny and thrilling with a couple of entangled stories. There is no or rather very little macho man action but still the pace of movie keeps you occupied all the time. Bottom line .. totally watchable.

27 Dresses (6/10). Stereotype romantic comedy. Totally predictable from the word GO! Katherine Heigl the protagonist is cute and acted well Also James Marsden has done a good job and the two central characters have supported each other well (especially during the dance sequence :P). The movie is at times humorous with cheeky lines, bust the best part is the song "Bennie and the Jets".

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (8/10) WOW, I watched this movie with lot of expectations and was not disappointed at all, Narration was kool, Cheeky lines, good humor. Val Kilmer rocks and so does Robert Downey Jr. and Michelle Monaghan. Not as great as pulp fiction but still worth all the time. The movie is fast, thrilling and humorous. Bottom line watch it asap.

The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep (8/10) Kid Movie with amazing CGI, I really loved the movie. The best part of movie is the story telling with incidents of past sprayed all over the movie making it a more relaxing experience more similar to the thought train of normal humans :) Also timely humor which was blended rally well with the story. The next best part was the CGI monster himself/herself. Really a great experience.

Equilibrium (8/10) The action dose of the week, One can study the gun fire trajectory and using mathematics and simulation can improve his killing rate by 120%. Man I love this. If that is so why not teach it to everybody why there is only one who can kill the rest... Anyway the movie is a real treat for action loving junta with really amazing action sequences. The movie is based on some futuristic society developed so that humans have no emotion so that they can not harm each other and so on. Also worth watching is Christian Bale's acting, the slow evolution of emotions on his face as the movie progresses. Bottom line.. Must watch for action loving sci-fi oriented people


PS. Rajasthan Royals won IPL. (Without doubt the Best team of the tournament won).. Waiting for Euro to start
