TRANSCENDENCE REVIEW - 2014

TRANSENDENCE(2014);

 Modern-day entertaining sci-fi thriller.

 Decent Directorial Debut by wally Pfister.The movie is full of smart ideas and fascinating visual thrills.It makes you think in a way that you never did before about technology.

 There's certainly potential in the script but execution was not up to the mark(I hate to say it).I thought,it will turn out as perfect companion for Spielberg's AI,Minority Report .We connected to them emotionally
But Transcendence was empty of feeling.If Wally Pfister put more effort on narration and screenplay,it will be extraordinary.As a whole the movie was Good.Michael Danna's BG Score was awesome.

 MY STARS TO TRANSCENDENCE - ***1/2

Review: Ready Player One

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline My rating: 5 of 5 stars Pure geeky '80s pop-culture stuff. Brilliant and unpredictable. My first read in sci-fi genre turned out to be wonderful. Enjoyed it to the core. Spielberg gonna make it a good fit for the big screen. Can't wait to see it. #ReadyPlayerOne View all my reviews

The Wolf of Wall Street - Insanely amazing three-hour film and doesn't drag a single bit

Image
I wrote this piece when film released. It's been nearly four years and the dynamic-duo are back with a bang.After coming out of theater,one thing was sure-The pair that never goes wrong. Master film-maker Martin Scorsese who made wonderful films -Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, The Departed, Shutter Island, Gangs of New York and The Aviator delivered another masterpiece. Damn!Leonardo DiCaprio,you blown my mind out of proportion. In 2011-J.Edger,2012- Django Unchained,2013,May-The Great Gatsby...every year giving his best.. He is like chasing mountains and moving ahead..I like that more..:) The comedy in movie has Marty's mark like in The Departed and Goodfellas.The speech about "Greed" and "Money",crawling on carpet,getting into the car,the way he talks to the clients...every scene is perfect.Its amazing,insanely amazing three-hour film and doesn't drag a single bit. Thanks to Indian Censor Board for accepting the F-words.:) :)

Trivikram Srinivas' AAa...Movie Review - Bittersweet Film

Image
Trivikram Srinivas' AAa..is bitter-sweet flick which has all the elements of regular Trivikram film but offers nothing new in terms of story. In fact, this is what you get when you put together  Attarintiki Daredi & Son of Satyamurthy. As a big fan of Trivikram Srinivas, I'm not satisfied at all. Quite repetitive stuff from Trivikram. He is not doing any experiment with script these days. Just playing it safe. The style of filmmaking wasn't good. This is not the kind of stuff I'm expecting from Trivikram. His earlier works are much better than what's he making now. This is not the same Trivikram I cheered for when I watched Athadu. This is not the style of filmmaking I'm craving from Trivikram.
