The Counselor - Very slow movie with big, complicated dialogues as in Pulp Fiction. You'll either like it a lot or you will absolutely hate it. I liked it.

Gravity was good but still the fails in substance whereas Moon excelled.

Watched Madras cafe, is it a trend that to portray realism the camera work is done so bad ?

 

[abhidev]

Just watched 'Shutter Island' - 8/10 .... brilliant movie and superb acting by all the actors especially by Leo...a must watch indeed

Gravity Review

This is a review / analysis of gravity by a guy from another forum. I hope it will change your view of Gravity being a straight forward movie. It has got so much going on under the surface.

how i live now. 6/10. started off vry interesting as an ocd American teenager is shipped off to britian to spend time with her cousin by her father. it takes place in an alternate reality where we are on cusp of world war 3 and troops are stationed throughout britain. the girl is mean amd *****y at first as she is angry about coming here but due to unexpected circumstances, has to brimg out the best in her and has to fight for a cause.

the picturesque countryside was shot in full fervour and the actors did a great job as well. however it turned out to be a movie which neither did war tragedy or romance angle any justice and ended up being a mishmash of both

You're next . This is one of the best slasher movies i have ever seen. Refreshing to see a great Slasher/gore/trapped in a house movie after a long while. The IMDB rating doesn't do it justice. Easily a 9/10 for me with very surprising revelations as well.

The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman - Loved it for the background score. Strong role by Shia LaBeouf. A little bollywood style overthetop movie, but good one time watch.

flowers in the attic - 7/10. very intriguing concept of how 4 children are forced to stay in a single room when their mother( heather graham) takes them to grandparents house and these children must be hidden from grandpa's sight and knwledge or else he wont include heather in his will. how these children coped this isolation was very interesting. there is an incest theme in the movie which might put off some viewers though. overall, i liked the movie as it showed the disturbing consequences of greed and the lengths one can go to for ensuring survival and freedom

watched and liked ... actually moved by it.

The Counselor - Very slow movie with big, complicated dialogues as in Pulp Fiction. You'll either like it a lot or you will absolutely hate it. I liked it.

I may like it.

Sleep Tight 9/10

Theme [source IMDB]

You wake day after day to the comfort and security of your home. But how safe is it really?

Talk about creepy movies...you've seen nothing if you haven't seen this. Since "Cure" no other movie kept me glued to the screen and made me this uneasy the whole duration.
With each new segment it redefines the level of creepiness.

Must watch!

 

[Sandeep Roy]

Among the ones I've watched recently, these seem to be 'must watch' to me:

Four Lions
The Lives of Others
The Fifth Estate
Side Effects
In The Loop
The Master

Gravity was good but still the fails in substance whereas Moon excelled.

Gravity and moon are 100% different. Its like comparing Titanic with Singh Saab The Great. The directors had completely different ideas. the script was way off. Gravity has more of living the moments in the story while Moon is just another film to watch and enjoy. Gravity is thrice the fun in 3d in theaters while Moon isnt so. (p.s. Moon maybe better but not cause Gravity fails in substance. Gravity never intended to have those substance. )

Too mainstream
