Reviews...

I have been watching quite a few movies in the recent past and although this does not qualify me for writing any kind of review, I would like to ebb out a few lines based on what I think about these...

Movie : Crash
Cast : Matt Damon, Sandra Bullock, Terrence Howard, Don Cheadle, Brenden Fraiser, Ludacris...
My View : The movie is good. A painstakingly real life take on the prevalent racial outlook in the Americas. A good watch if you do not have any problems watching people talking about different ethinicites in various views. A movie well done.

Movie : The Pink Panther
Cast : Steve Matrin, Jean Reno, Kevin Kline, Beyonce Knowles...
My View : One word : Martin. The movie is hilarious. Steve Martin as Instpector Clouseau is funny. The "new look" Jean Reno is good. Beyonce as the dame in distress is well done. Altogether a nice weekend watch.

Movie : Cheaper By the Dozen 2
Cast : Steve Martin, Eugene Levy, Carmen Electra...
My View : A usual "Father-children-antics" movie. Hilarious in episodes. Nicely handled by Steve Martin. Eugene Levy is...hhmm...not so aptly utilized. Carmen Electra is different, not what you would expect. A one-time-watch movie nonetheless.

Movie : Get Rich or Die Tryin
Cast : 50 Cent, Terrence Howard, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje...
My View : A tale of a young black african-american male and his dreams of making it big in the music, read Gangsta-Rap, business. Well knitted story, good moments, 50 Cent does well as Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson. A lot of offensive language and "bad words". Enjoyable at times.

Movie : King Kong
Cast : Naomi Watts, Jack Black, Adrien Brody, Andy Serkis...
My View : Peter jackson does it again !!! What are you waiting for ?

Movie : Syriana
Cast : George Clooney, Matt Damon, Jeffrey Wright, Chris Cooper...
My View : Interesting take on a variety of modern world issues. Oil Crisis, company Politics, Middle-East worker class issues and outlooks, American Intelligence way-of-life, The Sheikhs...A good watch, makes you think about a few things. A not-so-superhuman intelligence agent potrayal by Clooney. You should see this.

Movie : Chicken Little
Cast : Zach Braff, Garry Marshall, Don Knotts, Patrick Stewart, Steve Zahn, John Cusack...(all voices)
My View : "The Sky is falling" revisited. Only this time, an...err...logical explanation is given. Chicken Little is fun, with his buddies Abby, Runt...Always getting into trouble or creating it and then getting into it. A nice animated feature. A good laugh.

Movie : Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit
Cast : Peter Sallis, Ralph Fiennes, Helena Bonham Carter...
My View : I am a big W&G fan. The movie continues the tradition of the bloke and his trusty companion. A good animated feature with some interestingly thought of gadgets. An excellent watch if you are a W&G fan, a good one if you like such genres in genreal.

Movie : Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Cast : Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Kirsten Dunst, Elijah Wood, Mark Ruffalo...
My View : Although this movie is not actually the latest in line, but even then I figure this deserves a mention here. The movie deals with an offbeat subject with a sci-fi twist. Even so, it has a real side to it. The movie has been wonderfully made and most of it is really heart-rendering. Redefines the concept of love and all related and the not-so-good factors involved. I suggest a watch, definitely.

Movies to be watched : Good Night and Good Luck, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Capote, The World's Fastest Indian, Corpse Bride...

Till later.
