Tron Legacy - 7.4/10

The movie is good,packed with some enjoyable stunts.But i didn't find the story to be quite digestible,like a human disappearing completely into the digital world and such.

^^That is more believable.The actual problem is in the way they entered the digital world.
Imagine a human vanishing into something like a 'motherboard' with his entire body!thats ridiculous.May be they should have shown it in a way similar to that in the matrix.

Well, by the definition, a Sci-Fi is "a literary work based on the imagination and not necessarily on fact".
And then comes the science of teleportation.

According to the theory, teleportation is done, by dematerializing the original body, transmitting as data during the journey, and then reconstructing at the receiving end.
In fact, the original Tron (1982) actually shows this process, of the body getting dematerialized. So, the story makes sense to me, atleast from a Sci-Fi point of view.

Also, it doesn't happen much, when we get to see, the sequel getting higher votes then the classic. But, it was probably because, the concept of digital world was maybe too over-the-top at that time.

Guys need one more identification of a movie or may be a serial cant remember.

The story goes something like this..
There is this guy,the hero who is telling some man/woman story of his life. He is telling about how he loved his wife but she cheated on him with some dude.One day while she was with that other dude she got a brain aneurism or something and she collapsed.That fellow took her to the hospital but just left her at the hospital entrance where she died, and he just took off.

The hero is mad about this even though he was cheated by his wife but he still loved her.

Now I dont know which movie is this or is it a serial story.PLease help me guys in finding out which movie is this.

Thanks.

Memories of Murder 8/10

The movie was long due to be watched. Had not had the right time and mood for this. Today watched it with utmost patience and without a bit of disturbance.

Good thriller which keeps its touch with reality. A bit depressing but not that much it was said here (or may be I've gotten used to)

Great acting by everyone. Really a must watch.

Democracy is a myth
The Verdict 9/10

This is a courtroom drama and gets added in my list of perfect movies (12 Angry Men and Anatomy of Murder)

Plot: Frank Galvin is broke and drunk lawyer. At the end of his career where he shamelessly visits funerals to get a case lying to the mourners. His manager gets him a easy case to make some money.
Its a case of medical malpractice. Both parties here wan to settle it out of court. Agrees on a hefty sum. Frank is happy as he's gonna get one third of the sum as his fees. BUT, the moment he sees the victim his views change, now he wants to take the case to trial.
Rest is not a movie but an experience. You really get so immersed with Frank and his fight for justice that you tend to feel as helpless as Frank does on screen and you get excited on a faint bit of news on his behalf.
I really loved this movie. Let me tell you like the other two I've mentioned in the beginning, this is not a story of intelligence but a man and his fight for justice, how he knocks every door for a bit of help, how everyday he thought he's gonna loose it but still fought.

Another movie I would like to mention here is "To kill a mocking bird" which also mixes courtroom drama genre with social message but I liked "The Verdict" much. It did not bore me.

Paul Newman rocks as Frank Galvin. Rest of the crew are good too.

A must watch for everyone.

I didn't watch Cannibal Holocaust. I am not going back to same movies spree. Gonna watch quite a few numbers now, so why not start from a depressing, shocking, and disturbing movie ?
