I agree.. The climax was terrible.. As a rajni fan, i didn't expect this from him.. Apart from the climax, the entire movie was pretty decent..

Gone girl
Its a very good & interesting movie. From the start to the end I was hooked. There was never any unnecessary or dull moment. Maybe sometimes to appreciate movies like this you need the mood or Interest.

Gone Girl 8/10
1> She actually planned to kill herself!!! I mean, is that even a good plan? She plotted the whole thing for almost 1.5 years ago (remember what she told when mentioning about insurance renewal? She did it 1.5 years ago and that was part of her plan. She had put enough evidence to put him in jail. How about cutting few fingers and hide it in some search-able places? I think thats better than "kill self" plan!!!
2> How did she become pregnant? I can clearly recall he told he did not even touch her let alone fcuk, then he demanded DNA test, blood test, paternity test and in reply to that she said "I love tests"!!! And he just accepts the baby as his?!!! Why? What did she actually meant when she said "I love tests". Am I missing something.
3> Why did Nick let go of the lawyer? He could have asked him to trace her footsteps. She said to check the CCTV footages from the house but they would sure miss her first one week. They required to corroborate her story with things that found....
I'm basically angry that Nick could not take revenge on her, and my questions reflect that
I will put my version of the story in short here. I hope you will understand the minor psychological facts which I will be skipping.
One way of seeing the story is very simple. Its that nick's wife is one intelligent psychopath. Please also note that Nick is not good either. She gets what she wants in one way or the other. If she doesn't then its a dead end for that person & she makes sure of that (remember what she did to her previous boyfriend Tommy). Btw remember she is intelligent too. She loved nick however her husband was drifting far from her. She started to feel insecure but she is no quitter. At first she wanted to take revenge the hard way. However when she saw him on TV towards the end she gets a new plan why not give her husband the same type of feeling for the rest of his life.
Towards the climax I think she is not pregnant but she wants to.Nick goes under her thumb. (This fame compensated for the financial loss they had earlier. Even the FBI closed the case on her.)
II reason (general): Gone Girl (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ("but Amy reveals that she is pregnant, having artificially inseminated herself with Nick's sperm stored at a fertility clinic")
The lawyer leaves nick because nick really doesn't need him anymore. The lawyer gives his reasons too ("You got a book deal, a lifetime movie, you franchised the bar.")
If you think Nick becomes the puppet then the story ends if you don't then his fate remains a mystery.
Thus the movie ends with this dialogue. "What are you thinking? How are you feeling? What have we done to each other? What will we do?"

i dont care about reviews, critics and what people opine about movies, i watch myself and then see if i like it or not, everyone has different taste
and if you are saying that both of them did not have any great movie recently, Rajnikant did Shivaji and Robot both full entetainment, and Kamal has done Vishwaroopam it was good movie, waiting for Vishwarooopma and Papnasam from Kamal
also eagerly wairing for "I", readlly dont know what is the concept of the movie, but trailer looks great, after Aparichit "Anniyan" i am expecting same kind of movie

100% agree with you, The Grandfather Rajni during British era was fantastic story, they should have focus movie on that story only, last 15 minutes fight spoiled the movie, but i think it wa not Rajni, but director here to blame,

Tell No One - Can't really say how I felt about this movie but the production quality is a treat to watch. The music, the acting, the landscape...everything fits so perfectly. There are nudity scenes in first half of the movie, just normal french stuff.
Ditto - At first I thought how childishly was the main character. Struck with love and acting so over the top. But then I realized it was 1979 and I would have probably done the same. The other timeline, 2000, is something you can relate easily as it's more closer to our time. A movie with sci fi twist. Use of Bach's classics. A must watch.
Miracle in Cell No. 7 - Didn't like much. Looked a bit too colorful for the theme and relied a bit on overdone repetitive emotional scenes. May be a one time watch ? May be my opinion will change for this one. Kid's acting was pretty good for the age.

Kamal Hassan and Naseeruddin Shah are my all time favorites in Indian cinema when it comes to real acting.
I can count on fingers the number of movies in which Kamal Hassan has acted in the past decade which are not worth it.
I agree I missed out on Vishwaroopam. However I can list you so many movies of him which were nothing but mediocre.

I'm not being too smart. I've been watching Doctor Who for 6 months now. Time paradox and such concepts in movies don't seem much interesting after watching Doctor Who.

The Maze Runner - 9/10
A Pretty sci-fi thriller in the lines of the hunger-games-sort-of-movie with nice effects/story/representation and top-notch acting, but with a major plot hole which sure the writer would've thought when the novel was written, but left with a lame thought maybe... Instead of waiting for 3 years in the Glades, which they call the place they're all residing..

1. They could've somehow escaped through the elevator shaft which opens once a month bringing the stuffs + new guy
2. If they could construct a huge watchtower, why couldn't they built a long ladder to climb upon the maze..
3. They knew they're in a place surrounded by Danger. Why can't they built a fence sort of thing to protect themselves?
Found a HISHE video about Maze Runner, which in my opinion is a pretty solid perfect reasoning..

i didn't like the ending. a piece of cake or a cookie over a cup of coffee would have concluded everything pretty well.
there was a holly movie with kinda similar plot, and ended with a baseball match i think.....first i though DW was ok, then when daleks started appearing with "exterminate"s, i thought it lacks seriousness.

Damn, the plot seems interesting enough! I would have to watch it soon.
I like movies similar to one where both protagonists were talking to each other through letters and both were in different eras, the name of which escapes my mind right now!
Thats The Lake House Keanu Reeves I presume ..
Yes. You are right. Lake House received a not so good reception, but the concept was amazing.

Il Mare (Original movie)
^^hehe
I have seen Il Mare and Ditto.
Il Mare is artsy. Ditto is melodrama. But the concept is similar.

Watch Ditto if you like melodrama. It will bite you hard.
Il Mare is like a Bach's classic turned to movie. Watch in FHD.

Was it because it wasn't a proper closure ?
