Whiplash can be seen as a tribute to the ‘Greats’ from various fields of interest as it captures wonderfully how tangential the line of tenacity runs to the circle that is discouragement and how the greats have made that extremely tough leap & scale unimaginable peaks!
Iñárritu figuratively stirs up a hornet’s nest through a layered film that stumps us with its vision, execution & an authoritative take on things as trivial as a critic’s review to things as deep and existential as the virtues of being ignorant.
The story of Alan Turing deserved to be told! No better way than to take us through the struggles a seemingly abnormal person had to go through to show to the world a seemingly abnormal invention made at the most difficult of times & how the world conveniently and ironically threw him out an ‘outcast’.
'The Judge' is that movie with a lot many facets apart from a riveting courtroom drama! With an emotionally powered father-son relationship at the core, some effective performances by the lead actors provide a truly well executed and intriguing depiction of the story for the audience to relish and relate to.
Ever wondered what your favourite movie stars go through in order to sustain their celebrity lives? -‘Maps to the stars’ offers you a glimpse of that and much more into their crazy lives in the typically weird and unsettling David Cronenberg style that finishes in an equally psychotic fashion!
The first installment’s succinct, memorable, 'I will find you and I will kill you,' has now bowed into a remorseful, 'I don't know who, and I don't know why, but I'm going to find out'. That must tell one what to expect from this final (hopefully!!!) installment of the Taken series.
Amadeus is an enchanting masterpiece not only due to the usage of Mozart’s wonderful western classical compositions but also due to splendid script & riveting performances highlighting the professional rivalry that existed between Mozart and his contemporary Salieri.
Rolf de Heer’s Charlie’s Country is not the normal riveting cinema that arrests our attention, but a towering performance from David Gulpilil that highlights discrimination and cultural dislocation faced by the aborigines, certainly deserves our attention.
It is an emotionally uplifting tale of a great physicist & his wife who selflessly travels with and for him in his journey over time for his passion for sciences that helps him in defying the very laws of science that limit his mobility.
Foxcatcher is a welcome addition to the Sports Brothers drama tales from Hollywood & in exploring the inner-wrestling of the mind, it adds another catchy dimension. Add to that splendid showings from the lead cast, you get a film that arrests you.
