Transporter Refueled - 3/10
U mean you watched the whole movie? i could only stand the first 5 mins.
Spectre - 5/10(2 points for the car). Dull, slow movie with hollow characters. Probably the worst Bond movie I have seen. U.N.C.L.E is much better than this.
^ Even that 3 rating is for some fancy driving.
I love Transporter character.. Itâs not about Statham everytime. I watched TV series regularly, Felt bad its cancelled.
tamasha : 7/10⌠its a good one time watch. songs, acting and cinematography is good. story is simple and predictive.
Going for Creed todayâŚ
EDIT : Saw Creed yesterday⌠8.5/10⌠awesomely done movie. Rocky fans will surely love it. The movie is not a mass movie.

Mad Max (2015) - Good enough movie to make me want to watch the original trilogy.
Ant-Man - Dunno how but every Marvel movie made by Marvel just nails it. They arenât brilliant movies but you know it is a comic book movie and feels like it. We did see Wasp in action for a few seconds and at the end it definitely promises Wasp in the next iteration. I do not know much about Ant-Man never found the character intriguing and only knew him through his role in Avengers cartoon films where he appears but this movie did the same thing as Guardians of the Galaxy did. Movies made so well that you might not know about the characters involved in the movie but by the end you get some idea and would like to know more about them.
I would really like all Marvel rights sold to other studios to come under the same roof so that they can be made right just like they remade Hulk.
This also brings me to the topic of the recent trailer released for the upcoming Captain America movie. I rewatched it multiple times and would genuinely like to watch it. Compare that to DC trailers of Suicide Squad and Batman vs Superman felt pretty average. Didnât really get me excited and hope they donât drag Batman back to the dark days of Joel Schumacher.
Spoiler Ahead -
Jurassic World - My expression after the movie ended - WTH did I just watch? I skipped 2 and 3 for a reason. The movie is nothing like the original but a campy cheesy cringe worthy summer flick. It is one of those leave your brain at home to watch and enjoy kinda movie. Too bad I watched it at home so the brain was right next to me and made me question the stupidity of nearly every character. Seriously what was the military guy even doing with his stupid ideas of using Raptors in a war? The raptors will be shot in seconds in the battlefield. One second he is giving a stupid speech the next second he is screaming like a girl. The kids were annoying and their aunt running and doing all that in heels. Also I didnât just changing the way you wear clothes makes you Lara Croft. At the end it felt like a Godzilla a flick. Releasing a T-Rex to kill an I-Rex. A flare is all you need to program a T-Rex to go after the I-Rex and after the I-Rex is defeated the T-Rex not only walks away without doing anything to the humans and the raptor goes after which for a moment looked like the raptor wanted the t-rex to be his/her mentor. So at the end you have an island full of humans with an injured T-Rex and a Raptor loose. Seriously should have left the brain with the neighbors or left it at home and gone to neighborâs house to see it.

Inside Out - 8/10 : Absolutely brilliant. The imaginations at play are fantastic.
John wick - 7/10: Pure action, very satisfying.
As the Force Awakens release comes closer, time to revise the original trilogy.
Watched Star Wars 4,5,6 & 1. Decent movies.. Would rate the original triology 7, and the newer one 6. May the force be with you!!
In the Heart of the Sea : 8/10.. Decent movie. The acting was good. The movie gets little slow in second half, but very well made.
When does Star Wars (Force Awakens) release in cinemas in India (or Pune to be specific)? Is it Dec 18th or 25? Google seems to say Dec 18th, but bookmyshow says the 25th.
With Dilwale and Bajirao both releasing on 18th, so sad as it may be, I think theyâll release it at least a week later.
Hey can you tell regarding the cannibalism part in the movie. Planning to watch with family so donât want anything gore.
Star Wars: A new hope - 6.5/10
Re-watched after many many years. The atmosphere, the setup the movie created, the visuals, the characters hold surprisingly well after so may decades. But a lot of character actions and dialogues are quite cheesy. Overall itâs a fun space adventure which is still quite enjoyable.
I too watched the first Star Wars series over the past week and must say, it is so so so much better than the prequel crap Lucas came out with starting with The Phantom Menace. I am watching these movies with my sister as she hasnât seen any. I watched the original three films start to end with her but during Phantom Menace, caught a book and only watched the climax lightsaber battle.
Empire Strikes Back (9/10) is the best movie for me in the entire series (prequel as well as original). A close second will be A New Hope (8/10) with Return of the Jedi (7/10) closing it out.
Revenge of the Sith is the sole movie that is worth the original SW legacy but still not in the same league as the original ones.
The only, and I really mean the only, reason I would watch the prequel series is for the lightsaber duels between Yoda and Dooku, Yoda and Sidious and Qui-Gon wt Obi Wan vs. Darth Maul.
Having said that, I have no hopes of the new SW movie being any good :(.

I had actually watched Phantom menace before I watched the originals and at that time didnât find it half as bad as itâs made out to be. But my sensibilities were different at that time and maybe if I had watched the originals my opinion would have been different. I only knew about the hype around it. Anyway, after watching all, and in light of the arguments people make, the prequels may deserve the flak, but I, for one, do not âhateâ them. They were OK for me for that time. But then again itâs been a long time.
I am being cautiously optimistic about it.. Iâd say I want it to be good :).
Prem Ratan Dhan Payo 1/10
Went with full family thatâs why I could tolerate it. Itâs script is outdated even if it was released 10yrs ago.
Tamasha 6/10
bold attempt to put a message to a commercial movie fails miserably in execution. Attempt at a New narrative for bollywood is a welcome. Ranbir Kapoor is a great asset.
The Good Dinosaur 7/10
nothing that you havenât seen already in terms of visual effects but Improvising on the fine details. Though not good as Inside Out definitely worth a watch

Age of Adaline : 6.5/10 : Nice movie.
For Prem ratan Dhan Payo - this is the first rating point I saw in positive side of zero. Others rated like âkhwaaaaakk thoooooâ etc. 
If it continues in theater, I will got for Good Dinosaur this weekend. Seeing the trailer, I donât have high expectation - and you have cofirmed the same.
And about the Star Wars - I had re-watched the original trilogy recently and I donât find it âepicâ. I rather liked â2001: A Space Odysseyâ much more than SW-trilogy - which got much better visuals and technology than SW even it came almost a decade before SW-ep4.

Not much gore in the movie.
I did mention it, I went with full family blocking two rows, age ranged from 4 to 74yrs, thatâs how I could tolerate it. We were very busy cracking jokes with each other and enjoyed it. The movie didnât have anything new to offer but nothing awkward or make you uncomfortable while watching with family; how many current bollywood movies you can watch with Family? +1 for that.
