^^Sorry no offense.Please do some research yourself. Somethings cannot be explained in few sentences & I don't want to discuss it again moreover this thread is not appropriate for that.![]()
I did googl, but didn't find any useful article than, "Indiana Jones" movie. Lol. Anyway, forget it. This thread is not meant for such discussion perhaps.
Anyway, so I watched these movies today:
Mary Com: Was interesting to watch Priyanka Chopra to take on a yet different role. I think she justified her. Of course they couldn't have taken out the glamor for obvious reasons (read attracting Bollywood fans). The character development was there and the transformation of Mary Com was visible. A lot happened in first half and although it happened fast, I think it was just at the right pace. Second half was a bit predictable and dare I say cliche. Although The flashback mode of the film felt unnecessary and poorly executed. I like Manipur. Had a couple of good friends in my college from there. And I respect the people from Eastern part of our country. So the magic of Manipur which was present in the film, the landscape, the dialect, even the Manipuri dance at one instance, all made me enjoy the movie even more.
All being said, there's so much you can show about a personality who is still in her Prime, and I feel a lot of feathers is to be added in the cap of success of Mary Com. I would wish for a remake of the film on Mary Com after say a couple of decade, when full story can be unfolded in all its glory.
One thing is for sure. The ending where National Anthem was played and viewers were said to stand to pay respect to the anthem, made me chuckle. Not on the way movie requested explicitly to do that, but the way people followed it. The guy on my front seat was very reluctant to stand, but he eventually had to along with the crowd who although lazily but did stood up. Nice way to get out the Patriotism from today's generation.
Hunger Games 2: I liked the first part of the Hunger Games. It was a good execution of a concept that embraces our "entertainment appetite" from reality shows like Big Boss/Brother. So I had a high expectation from 2nd part. Someone on this forum said he hated the movie. I agree on his comment a bit, but also give kudos for Hollywood for a good try.
Hunger Games 2 failed to spark the fire which was present in the previous part as with almost every sequel that is made in recent times. But something tells me it all was due to the ending. Without ruining it for those who haven't watched "Hunger Games", I would just like to say that the end was not a proper ending. The 2nd part just laid the foundation for the 3rd which I would wait for now impatiently.
