Scent of a Woman

2011-12-15T03:41:00.000-08:00

A film for all hardcore Al Pacino fans. Maybe a better title would have have been proper for the film. As for the current one it leads to dubious thoughts. There is nothing in the film that is erotic or vulgar as you might think. The film is about emotions of a blind man. And I warn you dont think that you would have to pity him. Instead it's the other way round, He makes you think what you jerks are doing having a good sight. So thats for the heads up. Looking for your reviews.

2011-02-14T04:08:00.000-08:00

There are hundred reasons why you should see the film. But what I would suggest is that you dont take any view towards the film beforehand.You will be mesmerised by the way the protagonist of the film investigates the murder. It is really awesome film. You would never have a chance to see another investigating movie about a murder in future. This film is better than the anatomy Of Murder which is also another movie which has got universal acclamation. Movies have been revolving these days and with the annnouncement of the golden globe awards it has become much more murkier. We will be seeing about the films which have won its part in the golden globe awards.

American History X

2008-09-07T08:04:00.001-07:00

One Race....The Whites

American History X is a film which features the racial discrimination and the consequences in the society. It isnt the Edward Norton you saw in Fight Club. With his shaven head and the swastik tatoo on his chest he looks damn cool. The plot is about how a enigmatic students life gets fiddled by this racial discrimination stuff and when he realises what he is into, its too late. The ways he frames his speech is really mesmerising. This film would stay a topper for a long long time.
