Cow's are holy. Actually, thats all I wanted to say. But being the smart arse I am, I will continue to say more.
I want to write the review for so many good movies that I have been fortunate enough to watch. But there are so many of them that it will take me eternity to really do justice to each one of them.
So, here goes the list of movies. Yup. That's all the justice I am willing to do. I will put up a list with a brief review of it.
MotorCycle Diaries - Good movie. Eye opener.
Sideways - Character exploration.
Serenity - Science Fiction at a higher level. A bit more on this movie. If you are expecting lot of gadgets and lot of fighting with Chinese martial art moves and galactic wars, you will be slightly disappointed to know it does not have much of it. Its something really different. Watch :)
Mr and Mrs Iyer- Something that I had missed watching due to my developed dislike towards Hindi mainstream cinema. Don't know how the dislike got transferred to art movies also. After many threats of barbaric nature from Dips, I finally watched the movie. Brilliant. If you are open for a debate, ask me what were the minor mistakes in the movie and I will be glad to talk about it.
15 Park Avenue - Well, well, not much of a surprise eh? This one is again from Aparna Sen and its really different. There are a lot of things that could have been done better. But at the end of the day, I am not unhappy about the movie. Its good. Just say a word about this and I will bog you with arguments. Again, I owe this one to Dips_Spid.
Crash - What a movie exclamation. Brilliant. Absolutely marvelous. Watch it if you can.
March of the Penguins - Nature at its best. Cool ( pun intended ). Morgan Freeman's narrative keeps you up through the movie, taking you through the lives of all the emperor penguins. Man they are amazing.
Donnie Darko - I still don't get what the movie tries to convey at the end. But this in no way means the movie is not good. Its a fine movie. Very weird. You will be left thinking about its implications long after it has ended and your popcorn supply is over.
The Party - Hilarious. Hilarious is not really justice to Peter Sellers as he has been praised more than just "hilarious". 2 hrs of absolute fun. You might remember Peter Sellers from Pink Panther the original movie. Not the one with Beyonce which seemingly has a bleak future in the box office according to what I have read.
Guess I will end at this. One thing that I have realized is - Long written materials are mostly ignored. They are more comparable to my microwave manual.
