A very good entertaining movie...
6 May 2012
21 Jump Street (2012) ~umR ☛ 6.5/10 Directors: Phil Lord, Chris Miller Stars: Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum and Ice Cube 109 min - Action | Comedy Suitable: 15LV

A very good entertaining movie...21 Jump Street is a big screen adaptation of 80s TV serial. I haven't seen this serial but I had a great time watching this movie. The chemistry between Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum is brilliant, and it's nice to see Tatum in something other than his standard rom-com. Johah Hill, like always brings his trademark comedy in this movie too the only difference is looks thin! While saying that there are numerous time the jokes fall flat however,what really important is this movie keeps you entertained till the end and i guess that what matters..Overall, anyone who love to watch a fun-action-comedy movie or say "usual Hollywood style" Action-Comedy then this is it! 109 minutes of complete entertainment!

STORYLINE

In high school, Schmidt (Jonah Hill) was a dork and Jenko (Channing Tatum) was the popular jock. After graduation, both of them joined the police force and ended up as partners riding bicycles in the city park. Since they are young and look like high school students, they are assigned to an undercover unit to infiltrate a drug ring that is supplying high school students synthetic drugs.

A total mix of genres..
6 May 2012
This Means War (2012) ~umR ☛ 6/10 Director: McG Stars: Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pine and Tom Hardy 97 min - Action | Comedy | Romance Suitable: 12L

A total mix of genres...Part spy caper, part buddy ­picture, part romantic comedy, part raunchy- girl-talk sex farce, This Means War has been assembled with all the haphazardness of an amateur science experiment. The chemistry between Chris Pine and Tom Hardy was kinda cool. However, it was hard for me to accept Tom Hardy as a cool guy because the influence he made on me with his previous roles but yeah he did a good job. Pine plays the playboy, and he does it well, riffing on the "jerkish but actually cares" type he played well in Star Trek, while Witherspoon grounds the film with her turn as the cute girl surprised to be overwhelmed with options. Overall, Harmless, for sure, and bad in standard romantic comedy ways, so on that curve it's not the worst thing. If the film thought about what it was saying or doing, it might be embarrassed. As it stands, star charisma only carries the film so far.

STORYLINE

Two CIA agents, Tuck and Frank who are also best friends, have been benched because someone's after them. Tuck is divorced with a son whom he's not close to and Frank is a ladies man. Tuck decides to try and find someone so he places his profile on a dating website. Lauren, a woman also looking for a guy sees tuck's profile and goes with him. She later bumps into Frank and he hits on her and she goes out with him. she's intrigued by both of them. When they learn that they're dating the same girl, they agree to let her choose. But both can't help but use their skills to keep tabs on her and each other. And also sabotage each others dates with her

A mix feeling.....
2 May 2012
Outpost: Black Sun (2012) ~umR ☛ 5.5/10 Director: Steve Barker Stars: Catherine Steadman, Richard Coyle and Ali Craig 101 min - Action | Horror Suitable: 18LV

I have a mix feeling after watching this movie...I cannot say I liked this movie as the first part. This movie definitely lacks a strong cast regardless of how well the actors performed in this movie it does lacks a strong character (Like Ray Stevenson in the 1st part). I can surely say I wasn't on the edge of my seats so it turned out to be a little disappointing for me as my expectation were high. Location, action scenes all reminds of the 1st part however, the tension was less and it was predictable. All in all a one time watch and those who haven't seen the 1st part may b they might enjoy this one better as everything will be new for em! For the rest...Its just a watchable movie...

STORYLINE (Courtesy IMDb)

The year is 1945, the closing stages of WW2, and a German scientist by the name of Klausener is working on a frightening new technology that has the power to create an immortal Nazi army. Flash forward to present day, and a NATO task force is hurriedly deployed to Eastern Europe, where a sinister enemy appears to be mercilessly killing everything in its path. But this is no ordinary foe. Only Helena, a gutsy investigator on the trail of the notorious war-criminal Klausener, accepts the reality of that they are facing a battalion of Nazi Storm-Troopers, a veritable zombie army on the march. With the help of Wallace, a man who's been chasing Nazi secrets for years, the two of them team up with a Special Forces Unit to venture deep behind enemy lines. Their mission to fight their way back to the source of this evil army and prevent the seemingly inevitable rise of the 4th Reich.

The Avengers (2012)
10/10
The Avengers movie was an "event"!!!!
27 April 2012
The Avengers a.k.a Avengers Assemble (2012) ~umR ☛ 10/10 Director: Joss Whedon Stars: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, Tom Hiddleston, Clark Gregg, Samuel L. Jackson,Gwyneth Paltrow 142 min - Action | Adventure | Sci-Fi | Superhero Suitable: PG-13V

Epic movie!!!! I don't know from where to start...I mean this movie is the mother of all the entertainment which you can ever ask for! A movie which has produced what it was promised when it was under the production. 143 minutes of breathtaking experience and definitely a movie like this can be produced once in a life time. I don't know when was the last time I saw a movie in 3D but I am glad my experience of watching this movie will live for a long time. Lots of memories are now related to this movie! Excellent direction, I mean handling all these superheros, boy, that takes a great talent! However, in my personal opinion Hulk was the best then Iron Man! Special effects not to mention was top class..3D effects were also superb BUT try to watch without 3D!!! Excellent editing, great script and brilliant dialogues specially the punch lines. I can go on writing about this movie because its just "AWESOME". My final verdict "DONT MISS THIS ONE" !!!

STORYLINE

Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. brings together a team of super humans to form The Avengers to help save the Earth from Loki and his army.

22min of fun!
25 March 2012
Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Masters (D2D 2011) ~umR ☛ 7/10 Director: Anthony Leondis Voice: Jack Black, David Cowgill, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie 22 min - Animation | Short Suitable: G

22 min of full fun...This time Panda tell us about a short story of three masters. So less role play by Panda and more of Master Thundering Rhino, Master Storming Ox, and Master Croc. The animation is different than the original KFP mostly in this video as Panda is telling the story. This short movie does have comedy, adventure, action and all the fun which anyone would like to see when any movie name starts with "Kung Fu Panda"! 22 min of total entertainment and no waste of time. Loved it and waiting for more of these short movies from Dreamworks!

STORYLINE

Po and the Furious Five uncover the legend of three of kung fu's greatest heroes: Master Thundering Rhino, Master Storming Ox, and Master Croc.

Harold & Kumar is back but with a little less fun this time....
20 January 2012
A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas (2011) ~umR ☛ 6/10 Director: Todd Strauss-Schulson Stars: Kal Penn, John Cho and Neil Patrick Harris 90 min - Comedy

Harold & Kumar is back but with a little less fun this time....I wouldn't say this movie disappointed me coz it did had some really laugh out loud scenes but wish there was little more to enjoy. I guess this movie has got this much hike because of its 3D effects.. But for those who watch it without 3D its just another Harold and Kumar's raunchy comedies. (But, again with less comedy) This movie's story line is again unlikely and at times totally ridiculous, it's a total cut up comedy. You get the sense that the actors were having fun while they were filming. I laughed (and moaned) throughout the entire movie which I think is kind of the benchmark for this genre. Even said that I wish this movie lived up to the previous parts...All in all the movie was pretty kool, and I did have a good time...watch out for that egg throwing scene...;)

STORYLINE

Six years have elapsed since Guantanemo Bay, leaving Harold and Kumar estranged from one another with very different families, friends and lives. But when Kumar arrives on Harold's doorstep during the holiday season with a mysterious package in hand, he inadvertently burns down Harold's father-in-law's beloved Christmas tree. To fix the problem, Harold and Kumar embark on a mission through New York City to find the perfect Christmas tree, once again stumbling into trouble at every single turn.

Surprisingly funny.. BUT... Not over the top
19 January 2012
Division III: Football's Finest (2011) ~umR ☛ 5/10 Director: Marshall Cook Stars: Andy Dick, Marshall Cook and Bryan Callen 98 min - Comedy | Romance | Sport

Surprisingly funny...Not over the top, but offensive enough keep you laughing throughout the entire movie. Good acting and flawless direction is also an impressive part of this little movie. However, the story doesn't have anything special so that this movie can enter the category of "good" movies. Totally predictable and dr are no surprises at all. The only aspect which will keep you in this movie is the acting and some of the funny scenes in it. To conclude, this is the kind of movie which you can watch and easily forgotten. Totally avoidable...unless you are a HUGE fan of rugby/footfall or Andy Dick .

Transit (I) (2012)
5/10
Don't go near to this movie...
13 January 2012
Transit (2012) ~umR ☛ 5/10 Director: Antonio Negret Stars: Jim Caviezel, Diora Baird and James Frain 89 Min - Crime | Drama | Thriller

A family, five robbers & and bag full of money thats Transit. Nothing really special in this movie, you have seen this story number of times under different production team. Last 20 or some minutes are the best part of this movie. Totally predictable and the only thing i don't understand is actor like Jim Caviezel signed up for movies like this. Just below OK direction, however, acting is somewhat good and the actors tried their best to lift the movie up. In my view stay away from Transit and save your 89min...Don't tell me i didn't warn you!

STORYLINE

(same old story!...) A family on a road trip is stalked by criminals who stashed stolen money in their car.

What a waste of time....
26 August 2011
Never Back Down 2 (2011) | My Rating☛ 5/10 Director: Michael Jai White Writer: Chris Hauty Stars: Stacey Asaro, Gralen Bryant Banks and Rus Blackwell 103 min- Action

What a waste of time....There was nothing in this movie other than Michael Jai White one single fight with the cops. Acting was way below than one could imagine except Michael Jai White. As far as Michael Jai White debut Direction he was OK but still a long way to go. The story goes like this Four fighters different backgrounds come together to train under an ex MMA rising star (Michael Jai White) and then ultimately have to fight each other and the traitor in heir midst. This movie can only be tolerated by those who love to see anything called "action" and die hard fan of MJW. Rest of the people plz don't bother to see.

Well, a B grade movie can always be a B grade movie...
2 August 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Tactical Force (2011) | My Rating ☛ 4.5/10 90min - Action

Well a B grade movie can always be a B grade movie...That is what exactly Tactical Force delivered. Having two average action stars the movie completely fail to entertain me. Acting was OK but still could have been better.But like i said its a B grade movie what more you can expect. The director seems to try his best to make the movie better but half of the time he failed to do it..One thing i liked about this movie is its dialogues which was far better than any B grade movies..lots of punch lines and all. All in all Lower your expectation watch this movie knowing and expecting as a B grade and Tactical Force might entertain you...This is only for hard core action movie fans and fans of Michael Jai White & Steve Austin.

The Departed (2006)
Cracking movie.......
18 July 2011
The Departed (2006) | My Rating ☛ 7.5/10 151 min - Crime | Mystery | Thriller

First of all I shouldn't have watched Infernal Affairs..coz..I was able to predict everything that was going to happen. Now the question is which one is better? Well, both movies were just awesome however i liked Infernal Affairs little bit then Departed. May b I saw it first. But hats off to these four guys; Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg and Jack Nicholson. It was fun to watch Mark Wahlberg he was angry throughout the movie and the dialogues were awesome. All in all a superb movie!!!

Watchable & Avoidable !!!
2 May 2011
Warning: Spoilers
All right, my summary might have confusing however this is a kind of movie which some people will give a thumps up but on the other hand some will give a thumps down...A very simple plot, acting is "ok" overall except Djimon Hounsou and Kevin Becon. What I feel about the movie is it lacks speed and some good action scenes. I will recommend this movie for those who want to do time pass (specially action lovers) rest of the people can stay away because you might not gona like this movie. The story of the movie is very simple, one man (Djimon Hounsou) try to kill all the bad people in the society who do human-traffic and a girl follows him from his first kill and last till the end but at the end he got to know this girl has a secret....The person who helps Djimon is Kevin Bacon by providing him guns and other explosives. This movie has a touch of Buddha spiritual philosophy which is often said by the girl to change Djimon's mind to stop killing people...So that's a small sneak peak of the movie rest you can watch and decide how good he succeed in his mission!!! Overall a GOOD movie !!!

My IMDb ration : 6/10 Suitable : 18 above coz of nudity, violence & Sexual contents

First of all for those who rate this movie as a bad movie..i don't know what was all of you were expecting because this is a very nice entertaining movie for those who really enjoy "dark fantasy" movie...I agree it has got less action compare to other movies which we see in Hollywood...Nicholas Cage does well in this movie...I recommend this movie for those who want to sit back and enjoy an entertaining movie..if u do, this movie won't disappoint you...But if you are expecting a movie like Lord of the rings then guys and girls plz step away..Because u will get hurt :)...I wanted to give 5.5 out of 10 for this movie but don''t have the option.

Tron: Legacy (2010)
6/10
This movie takes you to a different world !!! For sure !!!
6 March 2011
Wow now that called a Sci-Fi colourful movie with lots of great sound track. I personally liked this movie because of the environment this movie take you to and u feel in a different world. However, yes movie could have been better with some more action sequence. If people don't like this movie that would probably because of the dark theme of the movie and less action. But if u are looking for a mesmerising eye entertainment (specially those who love video game) then this is the movie u should watch..and yes this movie is one of its kind. So it's a must watch movie for all the movie fans.

*Out of 5 i give 3.5 for this movie.

*My IMDb Rating 6.5/10 (sorry, for me 0.5 is also important for a review)

*Suitable for : 12 and above.

FYI...I don't write movie reviews just after watching it coz any movie may feel really cool in the initial stage of watching, i personally review my movies after 1 day to see how I feel about that movie.

Cheers & enjoy!!! Unitedcba @Movie is my Life@

A pretty decent movie!!!
4 March 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Well guys its my first review in IMDb. Thanks IMDb..

Yes now coming back to this movie The Chaperone (2011), well its a pretty decent movie from the beginning to end...However if you are expecting some high class action/thriller then plz u can step away..but if you are looking for a good time pass movie with a cup of coffee/tea in the Sunday afternoon with your kids then this is the movie u can rent. I am also impressed with HHH's acting. He should get more movie with better character. The pace of the movie is the same from starting to end and yes u can expect what will happen in the end however its a well directed movie (u wont get bored). In my rating this movie touched 3 out of 5 star. I know 3 is a bit high for some of you but yes some of you will agree.

IMDb Rating : 5.5/10 Suitable for Age 12 and above.
