Lost in speed
The Cobbler - 7/10

A different try from Adam Sandler apart from his usual comedy satire. The story could've gone better, but turned out sort of dull.

Chosen of the Omnissiah
Black Sea (2014) -6/10

The plot is not believable but movie can be watched once because of Jude Law only. About an gold loan from Russia to Nazi Germany using an U-boat which sank in Black Sea.

Gone Girl (2014) -8/10


The plot is very good and unpredictable as the husband cannot fathom the thought of his wife who was a psychopath and at the same time the wife who wants the marriage to be saved at any cost.

Saw Chappie today. I really liked it.

Yes, Hugh Jackman was not used to full potential. Give the role to anyone else, and it won't even make a bit of difference. But the movie itself was quite entertaining.

The robot Chappie was quite humorous and provided such laughs throughout the movie that few Sci Fi movie does. Yes, the movie did include lot of aspects from other sci fi movies, and it did so without coming under the pressure of "explaining" things. What I mean probably is that the movie tried to bring forth what happens next, and didn't spent much on "how" it's done, and in the technicalities of AI.

I was initially reluctant for Dev Patel, but his performance was good. He did came out to be high on testosterone throughout the movie and which specially suited the scenes where he got high on Red Bull while coding. :lol:

One interesting fact is that the character of Yolandi, was performed by little known actress whose actual name was Yolandi ("Yo-Landi Visser"). I found the performance of her as a moral support for Chappie quite good. Her interactions with Chappie was very humorous many times. Lots of laughter bursts from the audience throughout the movie.

A thing which I didn't really understand was why they were using what it seemed like DOS based interface if the story is somewhat futuristic with Robots and all. But they did were using Linux as evident from the scenes. Quite some bunch of geek coders. File names were very conveniently named as CONSCIOUSNESS.DAT files. Nice. :p

Definitely worth the watch in theater.

Ninja and Yolandi are Die Antwoord, a South African rap group. Check out their YouTube videos, they are very funny (start with Fatty Boom Boom). They are the reason I want to watch this movie despite the sad reviews.

Reviews are bad. But the movie is good. Do watch it.

Choice of name "Chappie" is sad though. It's a brand of Dog food in UK, AND.. wait for it.. name of a brand of Chewing gum in South Africa (where the movie have been shot in the first place). :lol:

I'm trying to recall a movie which was released a few years ago which had a group of people live like hippies but plot assassination of people who destroy the environment or has done mass fraud. The lead in a non American.

Democracy is a myth
Dum laga ke haisha 7.5/10
A very sweet movie, well made and a story well told. Messed up climax.

Badlapur 7.5/10
Inspired by (only concept...nothing else) "Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance". Marvelous performance from Nawazuddin. Watch this movie if nothing but only him.
Again ruined by climax. Why spoon-feed everything to the audience?!

Tinkerbell and the legend of Neverbeast 5/10

:sigh: I guess I'm old now. Really childish movie. Adults stay away.

/offtopic thought of writing a detailed review on DLKH but finding no time and now I've forgotten the details.

I have a few leads though not a definitive answer.

2. Go through this page and see if anything strikes Eco-terrorism in fiction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
