About Nemo

Nemo is the typical movie buff. Well, he hates popcorn though! He watches every kind of movies, in languages he can understand, some he cant. His tastes in movies can only be matched by his diversity. He flows with the film. Get scared in horror ones, tear up in tragedies, and laugh his ass off in comedies. He can give you killer reviews and he doesn't miss many, so you are in for a treat! By Dory

Inception (2010)



You're waiting for a train. A train that will take you far away. You know where you hope the train will take you, but you can't be sure. But it doesn't matter because we'll be together.


Imdb link :http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1375666/

Director : Christopher Johnathan James Nolan.

Genre :Drama | Mystery | Sci-Fi

Cast:Leonardo DiCaprio,Joseph Gordon-Levitt,Ellen Page,Tom Hardy,Ken Watanabe,Cillian Murphy,Marion Cotillard and Michael Caine


Review:I was waiting for this movie ever since i saw the trailers last summer,huge huge expectation from Nolan as i am a die hard fan of him.And also Di caprio has raised his bar after shutter island.He is more into dark roles nowadays which seems like perfectly suiting him.

So the movie starts and goes on,it is almost a two hour twenty minute movie but i bet you you will be stuck to your seat almost all through it. Original story,power packed star cast,awesome SFX,excellent climax scene this movie has all. A truly masterpiece of its own kind.The movie has a few moments in it which will make your cheekbones locked in permanent open position.The script and acting are all phenomenal.

Chirstopher Nolan was my fav director till days for his work in Prestige and Memento alongside directors like Scorcese and tarantino,but he has outdone himself in this movie.Surely one of the biggest blockbuster of the decade,and certainly of this year.

For a change i will not reveal any story of (spoiler) of this movie,its just for your knowledge Dicaprio will lead a team of people to plot and idea into Cillian Murphy's head i.e inception.The whole movie is a gem,and a must watch.

Its the Magnum Opus of the Magnum opuses.

Rating:4.5/5 *Infuckinception*

Transformers : Revenge of The Fallen (2009)



Imdb Link:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1055369/

Director:Michael Bay

Genre:Action,Sci-fi.

Cast:Shia LaBeouf,Megan Fox,Josh Duhamel,Tyrese Gibson,John Turturro,Kevin Dunn and Julie White

Review:No doubt this is the most highly waited movie of this year beside Terminator salvation.Storyline grows from last part which shows autobots decided to stay back on earth. Decepticon forces return to Earth on a mission to take Sam Witwicky prisoner, after the young hero learns the truth about the ancient origins of the Transformers. Joining the mission to protect humankind is Optimus Prime, who forms an alliance with international armies for a second epic battle.

The movie lacks pace in first hour,with shia heading for new college and fighting with fox over who says "I love you first", but the movie after interval starting from ten mins before interval is pure adrenaline rush.Giant autobots,decepticons,breath taking fight scenes,shia's awesomeness in acting,hot Megan fox,this movie has all what it takes to be huge hit.But the script lacks much,feels like a script written by an 10 year old.

With somewhat bad script this movie can still be a huge hit cause of Shia(this guy is serious about his place in Hollywood now),the hot Megan fox(she has put on a bit weight for this one which looks so good on her),some new robots,hilarious Agent simmons and the scene when Optimus prime dies.The end fight where Optimus kills fallen finished off very soon though.The guy who plays shia's room mate is good for nothing.Overall this is a movie which has boring first half,action packed second half and certainly not better than first part.

Rating:2.5/5 *Great effects - story lacking*

Push (2009)


Imdb link:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0465580/

Genre:Sci-fi,thriller.

Cast:Chris Evans,Dakota Fanning,Camilla Belle and Djimon Hounsou.

Review:One push can change everything.
In 1945, Hitler and his Nazis were using experiments on people who were born with special abilities to create an ultra-powerful army. However, the war end put a stop to this. What it didn't stop was other countries finding out and setting up their own branches, or divisions.Director Paul McGuigan movie 'Push' is completely based on three such gifted human beings.The story starts with Nick(Evans) whose father was killed in a motel room,which leads him to live a low profile life apart from world and has nothing exciting to do in life apart from playing dice in roads for money. Until one day a young girl called Cassie holmes(Dakota) called herself second generation watcher comes to Nick talking about Division,a strange girl and 6 million dollars.It starts a journey of Nick,cassie and towards escaping the Division forever.This film has pushers(one who can "push" people into believing that certain things are or aren't true ),bleeders (emit high-pitched sonic screams that make ears bleed) , sniffers (Sniffs can take any object and get a history of where it's been in relation to its owner), movers (can move objects and people with their minds)and Shadows (people whose ability is basically to block the effectiveness of other clairvoyants). The chemistry of Evans and belle was good.

Not at all entertaining,the movie lacks pace at times.Its all describing movie with little excitement for audience. Dakota fanning improved a lot over time,Chris was good in parts.Apart from it the film has nothing to offer.

Rating:2/5 *Skip it*
