Shreeux's Movie Chronicles

[shreeux]

Films dealing with time or time travel are often best served by a neat, closed circle. And Time Lapse manages to do just that. Its time traveling premise is pretty unique even though it is done with modest production value. Using only a couple of sets and actors, it pushes the plot one day at a time. As other mind bending movies, the plot twist can be hard to digest at times and the inconsistent acting does hamper the movie at mid-way point, though the photo finish still looks good.


Time Lapse (2014) 5/10
104 min | Sci-Fi, Thriller | 15 May 2015

"Assassination Games" is a pretty solid thriller.Now this was quite the surprise and mostly in a good way. With Jean-Claude Van Damme and Scott Adkins playing two assassins locked on the same target you would expect some kind of crazy action duel ending in a martial arts showdown.

Being a fan of "The Thieves (2012)" Dong-hoon Choi makes a sensationally entertaining mash-up of historical drama.Assassination is the kind of overstuffed historical mega-production a postwar drama set in Seoul during the 1930s.,

Movies based on video games don't exactly have a great track record. In fact, a poorly received adaptation of the Hitman game franchise already arrived on the big screen in 2007.Its almost certainly going to be too much of a generic action film for those heavily invested in the game franchise. Anyway movie was going without boring and tense.


Hitman: Agent 47 (2015) 6.5/10
15 | 96 min | Action, Crime, Thriller | 27 August 2015

A gutsy debut by Neeraj Ghaywan, who dives deep into the subject in hand and comes up with a little gem. Sensitive writing by Varun Grover makes it more valuable. Arun's camera is a silent but powerful storyteller in Masaan, Overall outstanding film.,
