Watched Room (2015) - Ok story. Couldn't connect with the characters. Could have been edited well.

He he..vigilante. Blade prequel may be

It turned into TV series at that point.

Sing Street - 8/10

John Carney rise again
Amazing music and a fun movie to watch on a dull rainy Sunday..

Dishoom 6/10

Only thing that saved this movie is its pace and length.
In a runtime of 124 minutes the makers kept it short and crisp. You'll certainly enjoy the first half, in second half the film slows down a bit, drags to unnecessary plot points but for a brief moment.
The movie is predictable but you probably knew that already.

But, is saved and at times spoiled by few references.

John Abraham is being called 'K' and Varun Dhawan is being called "J"...nicknames given by themselves. And a pug does help them to solve the case.
Anyone remembering "MIB"?!!

Then the occasion of Cricket match being played in Dubai. Now, there was a talk that the next IPL may be shifted to Dubai due to election issue. I'm not sure if that has any reason to shoot lot of aerial scenes of various cricket stadiums around Dubai. And they did use IPL signature tune once.

Then the usual (mandatory?!) Modi worship...

Well, there are cringe-worthy moments in the movie but better than a lot of past few action mega budget flicks which kept on hamming.

It's from the director of Begin Again! Added to my watchlist. Do try Begin Again, if you haven't already.

I seen his Once, Begin Again and now Sing Street. He restored my faith in musical genre movie.

Past month I saw The fundamentals of Caring, do watch if haven't, another fine performance from Paul Rudd.

5 to 7 - I usually don't do this.. Posting my views before even completing a movie. Watched it for half and hour and totally in love with it. Cant wait to watch the rest of the movie. Reminded me of Before Sunset, but I am sure there's much more in store.

Demolition 6/10

I'm not sure what message I'm supposed to take from this movie.

His wife died and his whole life started falling apart. But, then what?
No conclusion?!! I've seen a lot of movies with open ending but this movie can't claim it has an ending. It just stops playing after a time.

Jake Gyllenhaal sure did good but...anyway... Mubarak hai use jise yeh pasand aya ho!

^^ This was not a movie for you.....It had a completely satisfying closure, this movie is hard to digest and I can see why many viewers rejecting it on the lines of "Nothing happens" ... Nothing is suppose to happen, its a movie of grief, loath, resentment of a loss of a loved one. ....and then the self realization and demolishing of prejudices in order to find true self....... .. .... I loved the movie ...

Let's agree to disagree.

I found no closure in this movie.
The whole movie is focused on Davis. And tell how he got a closure or the movie even showed what he decided to do with his life?

You are talking about true self..what is his true self? Demolishing things?!
