Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
Fans weren't wrong !!
Zack Snyders Justice League Review
Best DC film to date Best Snyder film to date
After all the denial, leaks, bad media reviews; finally the finished Snyder Cut is available to the common man.
What started with a tregedy (Director Zack's daughters passing), after all these years has ended with a wonderful experience.
After seeing it i think that this was the right time & place where something of this magnitude could happen. Even if Zack was allowed to make this way back. it would've been still ended up as a cut-up mess.
Like a coin that has two sides where Marvel uses PG 13, light banter undertones, DC has been always dark, brooding & "Serious"
This time also things are indeed serious but after seeing it you will understand that having two things of varying contrasts is better for us the viewers.
The film is a complete breath of fresh air & with its color palette offers a new dynamic to any comic movie, be it Marvel or DC.
There is finally decent representation of each of JL members & if you want to get a taste of what can happen if an artist is given free reign just compare the Wonder Woman bank robbery scene between this & the Whedon cut. Its unrecognisable, brutal & badASS.
Cyborg is no longer a nobody but is pretty much the mantle piece here. Flash has more to do & so does Aquaman who shows he can be a team player when needed. WW & Batman takes reigns as experienced fighters leading the team as well as Superman even though late comes in banging.
Oh & then there's JOKER. Even though he was ridiculed for the potrayal of the clown prince of crime, Jared Leto comes back in a big big way. Even though his performance was small, it was excellent & up there with the greats. Gotta see it to feel it.
The 4Hrs whizzed past in no time & the epilogue part of the movie clearly denotes to a part 2 or an intended part 2 which would be great if it can happen but alas the cry of fans wasn't invain. This is a great comic book movie, movie period.
Zack who was undoubtebly balancing many things both in his personal as well as professional life has come through with something that will paint you with a smile.
Definitely heavens better than Whedon's cut & make no mistake this is not the same movie, its pretty much a NEW FILM. Ignore the naysayers, go in blind & decide for yourself.
Superman: Red Son (2020)
For someone who didn't read the comic I loved it.
First of all i didn't read the comic but i saw red son without any precedent & loved it.
Heard that the author never wanted any bias on either side but as per usual its the americans that has the righteous boot on. No surprise.
And Wonder Woman wanted to save everyone but was more Woke than i've ever seen her before blaming men for everything. Keeping up with the current trend i suppose. But is ignorable.
But to summize i really enjoyed the fresh take on sups & was pleasantly surprised. It may be watered down compared to the source but its still good enough.
Give it a watch.
Oppam (2016)
Surprisingly Good !!!!
Heard good things about the movie & so i went to check it out myself and i was not disappointed.
The film is written & directed by veteran director Priyadarshan and is a thriller where lead role is played by Mohanlal.The story revolves around murder of a retired judge, a blind man (Mohanlal) & its aftermath.
If you have seen the trailer & thought it was lame just wait after you see this movie, cause then you will understand that it was made so intentionally.The movie outright surprises with good camera work, Songs, sory progression ... the works, you name it & its there.
Its a strong comeback by the director after a couple of lemons. Mohanlal succeeds in making the audience feel the pain & struggle he is in & the director succeeds in making you stay at the edge of your seat.
A great movie & no doubt one of the best movies of the year !!!!
Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
Great as expected!!!
This my first review in IMDb.I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and wanted to share my thoughts.
I loved both previous Transformers movies and was expecting a lot from this one.Luckily it doesn't disappoint.The movie starts slow and shows its mettle from the second half.But from there on out its an action packed thrill ride.The transformer fights and some scenarios are breathtaking.Only negative that i felt is the replacement Rosie Huntington-Whiteley brings in nothing new and plays her part as expected.Even with some wrongs here and there its an action packed fantastic movie and if you loved the previous ones you will LOVE this one.I only wonder where Michael bay will take this franchise to from here on out.
My rating:8\10
