I liked the rhythm of the poem.

Ba..ba..dook..dook..dook


Anybody in TDF knows Kannada ?

this movie is Superb.

Lucia (2013) - 9/10
Awesome movie...awesome concept and plot
must must watch
I watched in Eng Subs

Kannada guy here.
Yeah the movie is extremely good. The director is a Nolan fan.. Inception inspired him to make that movie. Definitely recommended for everyone.
And yeah as always, don't read the summary on IMDB or elsewhere, watch it just like that.

Will definitely watch the first two but why have you suggested Deshdrohi, I wonder?

Deshdrohi is fun movie, but you can skip it.

Gattaca - 8/10

Funny... I came here just to post that I watched Gattaca again yesterday. And this time with my 16 yr old cousin.
The movie is a lot inspiring then what is given credit for and also highly underrated on IMDb.

Understood a little bit. most of the dialogues went over the head.

Has anybody watched 'Tamasha'? Is it family friendly? Mild sexual references and kissing scenes are okay.

Blind - Fast paced korean movie, like 'Seven Days'.

Hi there, any views on Spectre and Tamasha ?

 

[Desmond]

Watched SPECTRE last saturday.

7/10.

Not as good as Casino Royale, but not as bad as Skyfall or Quantum Of Solace.

This movie is key since it chronicles the origin of SPECTRE and probably laying out the groundwork for the next Bond sequels about the battle of MI6 vs SPECTRE, as in almost every classic Bond movie since the beginning of time. SPECTRE (the movie) has a pretty good story which is a large step ahead over Skyfall, which was very bleak and lacked substance. However, it still lacks substance over Casino Royale as far as Daniel Craig era Bond movies go.

A majority of its sins arise from improper handling of Chekov's Guns. Monica Belucci stars in this movie, but her role is limited to a few minutes during which time neither does she reveal any significant information to further the plot, nor does she play any role in the movie after, begging the question why even include her. Bond girl Lea Seydoux also lacks personality compared to Eva Green in Casino Royale, among other shortcomings. Also, the large assassin (don't know his name) who tails Bond is killed of pretty easily, I was expecting him to make an appearance later in the movie, probably in the final scenes

However, there are copious amount of action scenes which is SPECTRE's redeeming grace. I will say that its a must watch just because it is key to the future Bond movies yet to come.

Tamasha 6/10

Have seen this movie on Saturday.

I'm in a fix on how I actually felt about this movie.

It's part good part boring.
Love from a different angle but took a lot of time for that. A bit incoherent story-telling which kind of messes with the mood.

When I try to make a gist of this movie, in paper or in thought this appears a very beautiful concept but at times we come across books which when adapted to screen loses its charm.

If you are not a 'serious movie' viewer you may want to stay away from this. Else, give it a try when it comes out in DVD.

Good Short review Rhtiwick.

The girl next door - 7/10 . This is a fun movie.

Whiplash - 9/10 - Bloody good movie and the climax was unexpected.

 

[Gen.Libeb]

Mission Impossible - Rogue Nation : 5/10 - Really disappointed with this movie, the same formula, the same everything, one mask scene, one impossible scene, one hot chick, dull villain, boring climax. Just an average action movie for me.

Lake Placid vs. Anaconda : Not sure what to rate this. But I watched it with absolutely zero expectations and it was worth the time.

Mary and Max (2009 )

very lovely animated movie. It was depressing in the end.

9/10

The Butterfly Effect - 10/10.

I don't know why i didn't watch this movie even though i'm having it for the long time. Sort of time travel. Everytime you messes with the timeline, it messes back with you somehow leading to disastrous (many times) results.. Btw, did anyone this movie got 4 alternate endings?

Titli
Nice film. I would call it a good experimental film. There were some mistakes & acting by some actors were just okay rest were good. The film could have been more interesting if they had spend some more time & money but still overall its a good film. Far better than those high budget scriptless, storyless crap films released by bollywood.

Diary of June - Korean suspense thriller / mystery. If you liked Seven Days, you'd like this one too.
