Black Vs Blue - Batman Vs Superman

Posted by redthil On 3/25/2016 01:39:00 AM



Just came back from watching "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" . First thoughts, may be got too much of expectations going into the movie, after watching the multiple trailers. I feel, trailers are more interesting than the actual full length movie. So, kudos to those trailer creators.. :)

Expectations were high for me , because of two reasons: First, after three movies of Batman from Christopher Nolan, going out of those sequels, by default brought more expectation.. Secondly, when its two SuperHeros (infact, three, including Wonder Woman), facing against each other, that too Batman and SuperMan, I was pushed to that sort of expectations.

When it comes to Action sequences, the only scene i liked in the whole movie, is the below dialogue, when those two face each other for the first time with their costumes on..



Two things i liked the most in this movie, costumes of the characters and as-usual the background score from Hans Zimmer. As for as the story is concerned, i think, its way too much predictable..just a seed for the next sequel of movies which we can expect to be released in coming years..




Btw, to say who won this time, well, you'll anyways know the obvious answer.. dont have to sit through the entire movie for the answer...

Kung Fu Panda 2 - Its Awesome!!!!!!

Posted by redthil On 5/26/2011 10:34:00 PM


DON'T MISS WATCHING THIS in 3D!!!!!!!!

 So, the most awaited KungFu Panda 2 movie, did fair really well. Enjoyed every second of this movie.. Is it better than first movie? well!!! i think, it surely is.. and its more Awesome to watch it in 3D. If you think Tai Lung's escape from the prison left you amazed in the first movie, prepare for the awesome sequences of Dragon Warrior + Furious Five + Masters of KungFu, fighting against Lord Chen!!! Every single person in the theater shouted WOW!!! including me... 

i dont know whats about giving white colour theme for the Villian of the movie. In both these movies, like Tai Lung and Lord Chen, are both of white colour, and Chen surely overtakes in performance (sometimes i forget that i'm seeing/writing-about an animation movie). 




So, overall, a very worthy movie to watch it in 3D. And believe me, you wont feel that extra specs in your face as burden while watching the movie. 

Pirates of the Caribbean - On Stranger Tides

Posted by redthil On 5/22/2011 11:34:00 AM

Watched this one yesterday! To give you little details about the movie, this is whats there in wikipedia.. (why to type so much, when we can do that by just Ctrl C - Ctrl V ;) )

"Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides is a 2011 American adventure fantasy film and the fourth installment in the Pirates of the Caribbean series. In the film, Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) is joined by Angelica (Penélope Cruz) in his search for the Fountain of Youth, confronting the infamous, real-life, legendary pirate Blackbeard (Ian McShane), the young missionary Philip Swift (Sam Claflin) and the beautiful mermaid Syrena (Àstrid Bergès-Frisbey).The plot draws inspiration from the novel On Stranger Tides by Tim Powers, which also inspired the LucasArts game The Secret of Monkey Island. It is directed by Rob Marshall, written by Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer. The movie was distributed by Walt Disney Pictures.The release was presented in Disney Digital 3-D and IMAX 3D, as well as in traditional two-dimensional and IMAX formats." - Source: Wikipedia

And me watched in 3D, not a big difference though. so, if there's going to be a difference in the ticket amount between 2D and 3D version of this movie, better save money, even if its very little and use it to buy extra pop-corn :)
But this movie has a fast screenplay, as usual in this whole series of movie, which keeps you in the seat for the whole movie duration of little more than 2 hours (137 mins to be exact, as per IMDb). 
So, how does the movie fair against the previous Trilogy??? well, its 1% below any of the previous movies in all segments (with 1 BIG exception), just because we have seen enough of all these actions of the Captain before, and this movie totally revolves around the Captain. Totally!!!  its like seeing his face in every frame of the movie.
Overall, its a movie worth watching once..My final thoughts on this movie is, it would have been more appropriate to name this movie as "Adventures of the Captain Jack Sparrow : On Stranger Tides"

Oh!!! forgot about that BIG exception... in addition to those more beautiful landscapes, you get to see "beautiful" mermaids too...

Yutham Sei - Tamil Movie

Posted by redthil On 2/12/2011 06:09:00 PM

Picture Courtesy : moviegallery.in
Just watched this new movie yeasterday (released some days or a week ago), Yutham Sei. Directed by Myskin, and Cheran taking up the lead role, this was always in the list of the highly expected non-commercial movies. And it proved to be one too. Totally non-commercial, which is totally substantiated by having ONLY one song in the entire movie (and the bad part is, its the Director-turned-actor Amir dancing for that kuthu song, where one girl in yellow-saree is dancing, typical myskin's style), and still able to scroll the reels for around 2.30hrs. Though the first half goes little slow (only wen compared to the second half, otherwise, even the first-half moves quickly), the screenplay and the camera does not make us feel bored or keeps us totally focused to the movie. 

About the movie, this is A-rated, for the too much (literally too much) of violence shown in the movie. Its a complete thriller-kind-of movie, in which CID officer JK (played by Cheran) tries to find the criminals behind series of chopped-hands in cardboxes found at various random locations in the City. But he takes up this case un-willingly, as he wants to take up another case of his missing sister. Only later to find that, these two are totally related and solving the puzzle. And other actors like Veteran Y.G.Mahendran, Jayaprakash, have also done well in this movie. 

And this movie again, is about Women-Molestation, the Victim's family members trying to take revenge on the Molesters and their gang, and an officer trying to decode whats happening (typically taking us thru the story). It has become like a trend in the recent movies. when coming out of the theatre, i felt like, i'm coming out of SasiKumar's "Easan" movie (just caz Easan got released before this movie), just that the casting were different. 

So, overall, you can watch it once, not with kids tho. also, if you have missed watching "Easan" movie, you have an good opportunity now.
