Absurdism randomness seemingly all fresh from what the world is making lately, but it doesn't mean it's amazing no matter what. EEAAO is a movie that is so hyped at Oscars probably to attract the viewers only.

When the fantastic lol takes over the fantastic life journey of keen observation and genuine interest in a motion picture, when money matters, sponsorship matters, movies like Women Talking gets ignored for acting and baseless actors like in EEAAO gets flooded. Time will come when Academy will be ashamed of such choices of North Eastern Asian obsession.

All the immature and cool people are gonna love this movie. So if you are one of them, go and enjoy with a popcorn. It's worth it all, and those who value something genuine, well y'all can go and tuck yourself for this is not your time.

Straight to the point, the movie is full of goody goody things, typically melodramatic but other than that, its got all the lovely elements that could be added.

Nicely shot, sweet and charming character development, well intended and warmingly delightful. Kids movie for sure but such movies certainly leave an unknown memory of joy in the heart even if we will forget the movie itself with time.

What could have been better? Nothing since there is no part that happened as not intended. And thats a success on its own.

A sheer mend up and patch up for last years Oscar Controversy, the movie Moonlight is marked by false and unjustifiable over rating. Considering over its parameters for judgment, one can definitely say that the movie is certainly not what it has become.

Direction : Absolutely average ranking up only to a good movie making and absolutely nothing extraordinary at all.

Acting : Acting part was indeed great and one can't find any loose end to it.

Cinematography : Quite pleasant and appealing

Editing : As much as the movie required to talk about is well presented and seems adequate.

Movie : Well the movie is like pointless and doesn't address anything significant at all. Perhaps its very close representation of actually what goes on in that world.

Yet the three parts shown in the life of a guy seems not so important to hand it over with the best picture award. VERDICT : Seems like this year, no other movie really appeared that address a large section of society and have any catchy Poster. With #OscarSoWhite and absence of any other Oscar Oriented movie, we got a strange winner again.

What is appreciable : Nice work over past aromatic creation with costume and set designing. Great casting in terms of their character and execution. Audience was talking about it during interval indicating involvement. No awkward situations are created making it a sufficiently clean movie. Lots n lots of comedy moments where even kids were seen laughing. Cute and balanced. Simple script, editing and acting are notable. Sort of seen as an eye opener to people in many respects.

What is unexpected : Not a thriller or intense movie.

What is disappointing : Technically not greatly directed. Lot of flawed moments and thus Rustom lags way behind Drishyam movie. Music is not really memorable. Defending statements were imposed and could only create short term impression.

This average good movie holds something important. Now, why average good? Compare it to the 400 Blows, Apu Trilogy, Tokyo story and such others, there is a margin for best upto Agora

But wondering what makes it special, I was displayed with two important aspects. The life of a Scientific Brain and the religious turmoil. If one thinks over it, the director made an absolute blend of Hypatia and people. Whereas one feels astound on her realization of the case of a perfect figure, the balanced figure circle itself being a special case of ellipse which can be realised through a cone as a conic section, at the same time we are visualised over how all kind of religious folks corrupt and misuse the simple and guiding principles. It doesn't take a moment or the beautiful idea to be moulded in the cruel and hampering thought just for personal ego satisfaction. One can justify anything everything and there will always be statements that will shut our mouth of logic for the logicality of those statements.

Intentionally or unintentionally, the blend got great and significant.

Simply saying, its a sweet movie that passes so gently that feels like flying. Nothing in the movie is best but everything is great.

I agree that I couraged to see it because of its Oscar nomination. All the small tiny elements are so put into it that there is a sense of originality into this 'drama'. Its a drama movie, because it is cute, not realistic and not a high grade movie-like movie, its sweet, the music keeps it alive, its aim is to give you a time to simply smile, and not to make a permanent impression.

It doesn't feels to intend to teach one anything, its simply a story, one can cherish the habitants of the boarding house, the family of the Italian guy, lovely sister and the people that plays their part. Costume seems satisfying as well as acting, cinematography and the direction.

Room creates an impact as it starts with the mother and her son, within the confinement, that within a short time we are taken into their world. Not stressing much on the saddening prison-ed part, it quickly packs up and move into the reformation side of two soon up to happy ending.

It remarkably acknowledges all the possible issues that should arise in various individual situation both are put into. One doesn't think of beyond because he has never experienced it, all the facts mentioned to him suddenly are fake and story for him. With time he realize the possibility of possibility.

Satisfying performance of Brie and Jacob is worth noticing. The movie is courageous, powerful, questioning, emotional, agitating, disturbing and one of its kind

DeePika is the Piku. Just watched this not so famous but quite praised movie of Indian cinema. But my opinion vary from others in a major aspect. To begin, I enjoyed the movie on a whole, it has many flaws technically still its worth 10/10 from me.

Piku is rewarded as great movie, simple movie, entertaining and light movie, warmhearted movie and what not. But I don't think its great for its entertaining simplicity. Just as an artist with something in his mind that reflects his views, emotional and intellectual, as a poem or a painting which is developed by him, film making is more or less the same depiction of artists thoughts and mood. In Piku, it is clearly seen that the director and the writer have certain perspective of life, certain interest points in day to day life, something that they give importance to. In the movie this is what they tried to do, being simple and heart- warming is just the outcome of the painting they created. Its like the shadow of the tree that you grow up in your yard.

Director and Writer has done a beautiful job and in this movie there is a good amount of sync between the both in terms of there focused points of life moments. Amazing acting was taken out from A-D-I trio. Except the scattered and hasteful ending, there is actual nothing that gets it down. Amongst the category of drama (Bollywood), realistic(Others mostly) and entertainment, Piku is entertaining one which has the illusive appearance of the realistic-drama.

Music and soundtracks were good, fresh trio combination, emotional development and the most powerful of all ; the dialogues, totally mindblowing, linked, connected and cohesive. Until the interval they barely stop, it was like a chain of punches. The story was great but the way it was crafted and laid upon was just like the makers blew up the bomb of their desire to have certain points in the film that are crucial in there view and think should also be anticipated by others as significant at least, upon the canvas. Not many will understand how successfully the film is made, yet its a movie watch-able and enjoyable by all.

After watching Bol, I heard about Khuda Kay Liye and Waar. Yet to see Waar but just watched In the Name of God, this is In the Name of Father.... The movie is captive right from the start specially for those who are surrounded by Muslim community.

The film reminded me of The Grapes of Wrath. Khuda Kay Liye gives us the glimpse that there are only two kind of people in the World, Good People and Innocent People, there is no category as Bad People. Any thing that seems wrong is just born out of ignorance and not out of religion. Logics are physical and can support right as well as anti but the thing thats even inner to the heart can guide one.

Beautifully made, courageously long, apt and sweet, this is one movie that provides food for hope. Characters, acting, authentic drama, soundtracks, music and reasons, all are played well. But above all, it shows how casual, usual, general, pak and loving Islam is just like any other path.

Fast and Furious series has two sides that needs to be discussed, technicality and entertainment. While the former parts of the series were typical, fast and furious is growing to be a well developed and appreciated action sequence in forthcoming installments.

Entertainment is the gripping part, its eventful, fast and holding, full of actions, stunts and drama. Just like its previous part, this part has put efforts in showing out new stunts, not to forget the loss suffered at Abu Dabi. It's about cars, speed, guns and bullets, bombs and missiles and a lot of bang-bang! A lot of effort is put on filming locations which were splendid. A realistic feeling is given where the sound of cars vanish when the camera is shooting from height and then we come back closer with vroom-vroom in its action, goes back again coming back to the cars. Although the things to be praised are limited, yet the movie serves you two hours of motion. Dialogues and attitude are same as previous ones, the official good bye to Paul Walker could have been better.

Technically we know what this film is but even then the characters were not exposed that equally and properly-fitting which was much more better in the last movie. Rodriguez was undeveloped, Statham did good, Rock was under-used, in all there was absence of the connection of viewer with the characters in all.

In my opinion anyone who disliked this movie simply lacks sensitivity and understanding, he needs to develop his vision for society.

The movie don't oppose or favor anything, it doesn't provide solution nor does it try to create new questions. A Wednesday only and only tries to show or reflect the agitation of a scared, troubled and tortured life. Acting extraordinary, pace awesome and concept unique...all marks a film making but the thing that creates the difference is its idea.

Suffering from loss of smiling faces, fear of loved ones, calls from the home to check welfare, such a brave...such a brave observation and depiction that shows the problem of a Common Man against terror. Getting killed like an insect, randomly and suddenly, 9/11 or 26/12 whatever it be, wherever it be, the ultimate sufferer is the Common Man. Its like a man getting drunk, drives and kills a normal guy walking at the side of he street by his car. The plot is insignificant, it is just added to complete narration and to show the pain, the suffering. So the question is why does a common man suffers.....and for whom and whose benefit....definitely not for any religions....

Brilliant comedy, huge message, miracle at its best. This movie is an ideology, a thought, an idea, a discussion, a help, a concept, a psychological analysis, in all the reason to start religions.

It plays on an idea....."It doesn't matter what you are or what you do, the only thing that matters is what you feel inside, what you are inside".....Patch Adams is a man who see vagina as a fact and just remains with it without attractive or repulsive thoughts...... Munna Bhai is a man who see the world with what it need and not with what it is having.

Mind and logics play on the level of physical existence while love and compassion play on the level of life, its events, the religion. Dead body for experiment is referred just a subject but he orders to refer it with respect and not as a blob of flesh. A goon with a kind heart creates difference.

The film is obvious drama with lot of loop holes but since its a comedy and has so many unforgettable punches of logic that its highly respectable. Such kind of movies are not for comparison, they are to abide by and understood with heart and not the brain.

The Bandit, Eskiya, seemed like a melodrama movie with lot of things added and blended beautifully, making it worth watching. But for sure it is not the movie that can decorate the Oscars. A light and grasping movie, it has lot of faces for life and is crafted cohesively.

To count for the good points, we can go on with acting of the bandit, the thought of his friend who betrayed him over the concept of love, inability to escape the wrong deeds, silence of the girl, atmosphere for acting and the end scene with the fireworks, enough to win the heart.

To count for the negative points, the film has no objective as such, provides melodrama, false figures, no ideas or analysis, a bit of non-realistic story, dull at a times and tries to prove itself rather than being proved itself. A huge number of such drama movies are available.

Weighted mean from my ratings /my logic may be biased but remains same for all/ will be 7.4/10.

Whiplash, a movie with power and passion, arrogance and raid, drums and dragons. A beauty brought out by real, controlled, direct and enchanting acting by the both of them, J.K. Simmons, Miles Teller.

To many of those who cares, the movie is misleading for its exaggerated scenes but if one can except them as a movie, fiction, he can not neglect the amount of environment he is put in. Its a flow of music, beats, dedication, romance, arrogance, hatred, negligence, shamelessness, cruelty, empowering, encompassing, surrendering and finally acceptance. The beats drag and rush, the story drag and rush, the behavior drag and rush, So is asked "ARE YOU DRAGGING OR RUSHING". The movie is non-technical but it binds you.

The acting of a psycho and talented teacher added to that of a boastful dedicated talented aspirant to bring out the magical world which even if is unreal, seems cozy and cruel at the same time. Passion and path cross each other, teacher and student fight, flows blood, drum beats, music plays, Caravan-Whiplash, sound surrounds and the moment it was to end Boom!! ....He Cues Them .... and it ends.

Nightcrawler is not a great movie but the damn performance of brutal coldness and the original screenplay is all the way up.

Its a story of media, news reporters, news generators, money blinds, lonely and isolated lives aiming to develop at the cost of revenge with others, with people. Nothing much but a bit of exaggeration of truth. Started with a fine motion just like Drive movie, it moves on creating some situation and base at the same time luring over news channels. Next it just suddenly but cohesively turn to one incident and says a lot in that for which character development was done earlier.

This movie is definitely must watch, everyone can see themselves in it. We at some time or other, for our benefit, without any hesitation exploit the situation, we are liars, without even caring for its consequences over self and over others.

The Dreamers, a name to signify that the dreams are different from reality. Agreed well and also that this movie is cohesive cozy and captive film making (for....). But I wonder the need.

The movie is a complete alternative of p*rn but still the director has descended it in the mainstream cinema. Well and good for the crew. Now many prestigious critics and portals praised the film for its great cinematic and directorial technicality, which anyone can do if he understand the technicality. But the thought that captures me is what was the point of making something different.

Whenever one wishes to say 'hello' he will usually wave his hand or shake but what if he says 'hello' with one hand over 'his @' and other hand making a puppet face of any animal like a Deer. The thing is why wasn't some other alternative script chosen as a theme for the actual moral. This film depicts extremely filthy sections of a dirty mind which I think has lost its creativity. Whenever something different is to be done, being a responsible artist, it should be done in such a way that it can elevate the mental virtues and ideas of the viewer rather than just hypnotizing him in fantasy of life and logics too.

Can't judge the film myself, didn't appreciate the movie at all, but just wonder. This film is a or may be a fine example that how Wasted(Demon) things can have Useful(Blinding) effect on the Brain(an Artificial Stuff) which can justify anything which it enjoys.

An absolute unexpected version of screenplay, incendies is one shocking movie which shows unthinkable and unexplored area of existence specially when someone is tangled and surrounded with hectic and killing religious, cultural, behavioral and moribund ideas encapsulating the freedom and when the bird flies out of his prison, he finds and remembers the past with love for hatred and pains.

Acting was alright, location for shooting was great but the screenplay was totally new, and also it was encompassed with a bit weak links. Yet perfection is only a virtual reality, this movie is special for its final message. The love can't destroy the hatred but love will dissolve the hatred and therefore to love means to dissolve, past present and future.

because first of all it is all so much unofficially melodramatic that nothing interests me...added to shockingly abusive language made me disgust for it. When you use f* word in Goodfellas, it is justified but when.....Mr. Trainspotting maker used it to make his movie look realistic, I was sure its going to be one more typo from him. What interests the viewer is Mr. The Beach maker used or adapted a story which is feel good kind...so you can all enjoy your fantasies of getting success at the end, and nothing bad in that, at least it entertains.

Then why did it got 'di Oscar'. the plain reason that the amazing movie 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' was not well connected with its end....according to the movie geeks. Rest other movies were pure Hollywood style porn and disgust which can't get Oscar what so ever. And i wonder where was 'The Dark Knight' in best pictures?? So, as Mr. buttons is out of the race, slumdog wins it. No doubt it is a nice enjoyable movie but only for western or westernized minds. The problem that i found with it was Mr. Danny Boyle tried to make it for world wide audience by mixing Hollywood style to bollywood, which unfortunately is not possible because of a huge cultural difference, lack of maturity in new ones, too filmy brains on one side and general requirements.

The songs were good, new to the academy and audience, so i can't say it was any bad. In all this was a nicely directed, poorly adapted and dumbly acted, too average movie. One time watch at most.

This movie is not greatest for me except that it has amazingly made and laid and portrayed and filmed story which was special. I was getting bored all the way cause such comedies are not my type but yet i could not move, i was stuck, not much to laugh but to appreciate the style, acting, dialogues and dialogue delivery. Its one of the movie that is standing right up in its genre with comedy, tragedy, melodrama a bit, and above all beautiful background music and few good soundtracks too.

This one can never be hated, i wonder why was it not nominated for any Oscar or even acknowledged. But anyway it was a nice experience to watch this movie and smile all the time. My top 5 comedies...it can be at the fifth......my top 10 comedies...it must be tenth.

Obviously this is a kind of movie that no one could love but at the same time academy can give it an Oscar. For sure there will be enormously few people out there who can love this movie and rest enormously huge population will find it stupid and awful. Any one who praise this movie will get a lot of opposition and disgust from rest of the huge majority.

No doubt there is nothing in this movie, absolutely nothing, no Shakespeare, no action emotion, no entertainment, nothing. But this movie is one of the few that very small population can understand. They can understand that this is a useless movie except the one point, it is useless to watch and can't be recommended to anyone except for one point, that whenever one finds fulfillment, one finds what he desires, one finds out his second part, he can cross any limit and can work in a much better way. This second part is not his soul but his dreams, his physical requirement, and his natural lust, which can be anything usually like beauty, power, respect etc. This 'portrayal' or the depiction of situation when two finds their desire and what goes on with their emotions is extremely nice, sensual, beautiful, and lustfully shown. The lack of control, flowing away and oozing emotions, lust all are just great in this movie. Other then this portrayal of emotions, there is nothing else in this movie to watch. Some good actors have acted so foolishly and even some got Oscar nominations. I have no idea of this but the idea and concept laid in the movie is extra ordinary and special, it is not important but it is different.

The biggest conclusion that this movie unintentionally points to is that the ultimate Freedom and ultimate Fulfilment provides Capability of any kind and immense Happiness. Each and everyone who is seeking for physical fulfillment is unconsciously trying to achieve that ultimate Fulfilment, just in wrong direction and at incorrect line and length.

The Raid Redemption is made unexpectedly entertaining movie with a continuous sequence of action and thrill. The movie doesn't start with any pre-story and pre-drama, which makes it clear that this is not gonna be any typical laid down and establishing movie. The very initial sequence of scenes makes up for the emotional and melodramatic part of the movie while rest goes on to actual actions. Although it is logical movie but one can't deny any melodrama present in the whole plot but nevertheless this whole melodrama is absolutely entertaining and completely captive. The movie is about the army team that 'raids' a gangster building and the action starts. Although quite a lot of things remained unclear, it can be totally ignored. The started action reveals many new relation and also tells about on going betrayal and corruption between them both. In al this movie is must watch for a Saturday night entertainment.

Just spend my 165 minutes on this movie. Transformers age of extinction is an extreme level of stupid made-up plot. The whole movie is a saga of foolishness except one thing, visuals.

Lengthy plot, senseless characters and their clothing, stupid script, useless acting (though I wonder if it is the mistake of plot that nothing remained for acting), scattered and non-sequential foolish plot (like Chinese people are just unaware of the huge spaceship bombing right across a mile), non-sense old rotten fake dialogues and really really worst editing. I wonder if the director and the whole team deliberately kept the movie so stupid to stress on effects or they just thought it won't be bad if they can show family love so unsuccessfully.

But what cheers a guy are its visuals effects with 3d at its best. These visual effects are super fun, totally messed up, non-sequential, a lot in amount and totally enjoyable without logic. The whole stress is given to the effects and the machines, transformers, the whole stupidity was tolerable for me due to those effects.

A special congrats to the director from writing and making such a movie. Unique, comic, entertaining, finely-worked, romantic, insightful, tribute, feel-good, nicely dialogued, nicely-written typical melodrama which is completely out of the box.

Assuming it to be akshay kumar and sonakshi sinha in another dumb flop comedy moving pictures on screen is common but incorrect ,here. The dialogues are finely worked and written, the concept is completely new though story line is typical and melodramatic but considering it to be a comic movie I don't mind.

Some points were extremely logical, insightful and thought provoking and were speciality of this movie to make it an enriching experience. No doubt its not a technically good movie but yes its a good movie. I am waiting for the poster to be uploaded!!

Right from the beginning the movie is captive. The kid and his grandfather both are cute and the firm base of the story. Each and everything is non-sense but it is a children-story and hence it must be the way it is.

Characters were good and enjoyable, love story was cute as we wish and set design was apt. The best point in the movie is that it doesn't work too much to make it look realistic and the usual-ness present in the princess bride made it appreciable. The movie is must watch for anyone who wants some entertainment. But among all, the best thing the director did is to take out appropriate acting out of the kid who is listening to the story. It is sweet cute and fresh movie with few could have done better but ignoring them, its fun.
