Movie Review - Instructions Not Included (2014)

Hi Guys, 

Some movies brings tears to your eyes and makes you think about your loved ones. They makes you grateful that you still have them in your life and then you cherish your moments of togetherness. This is one of those movies and I don't remember any other movie in recent past that have brought tears in my eyes since Life is Beautiful & Schindler's List. No instructions included (2014) is a journey of a person from being a carefree Casanova to taking full responsibility as a dad. The life gave him no choice as he falls into it, the movie shows the journey he travels through being a single dad.

Instructions Not Included (2014) is a Mexican Comedy Drama movie acted and directed by Eugenio Derbez. He has acted very well as a learning father to a child girl played by Loreto Peralta. She is the soul of the movie. How their lives got intertwined and how they learn from each other makes the context of this movie. The movie has a mystery attached to it which is revealed only in the last scene of the movie. 

This movie is definitely worth a watch whenever it's coming on TV or this can be easily added in your personal DVD collection. I really loved watching the movie and felt that you should always be happy and build on your personal relationships all the time. Not only good relationships keeps you stress free but also makes you enjoy your life and gives a purpose to your whole existence.

Movie got released in Ster Kinekor on 17th Oct 2014 and is now available in DVD format. More info on twitter and facebook.

Cheers!!!

Movie Review - No Good Deed (2014)

Hi Guys, 

No Good Deed (2014) is an American Thriller movie starring Idris Elba & Taraji P. Henson and is directed by Sam Miller who also directed some episodes of Luther (TV series).

The movie has really all the ingredients of being a thriller with it's story line and music/sound effects. I really loved watching this movie as story unfolds scene by scene. This is one of those movies which you need to go to multiplex to watch it on big screen with surround sound system.

No Good Deed (2014) also stars Leslie Bibb, Kate del Castillo, Henry Simmons and Mark Smith. Idris and Taraji are the main characters as they take your breath away with their acting skills. It was so great to see Taraji after Think Like a Man too (2014) in a different avatar. 

The movie is the story about a criminal as he enters the house of a lady whose husband has went on a trip to his father's house. How their paths meets and what happens aafterward is the main context of this movie. The movie will definitely send chills down your spine. I loved every scene of the movie after The Equalizer (2014). Idris eyes speaks much more than his words and really brings that criminal look that scares the hell out of you. Taraji has acted well with all her charm and really fights her way back to save her kids and family.

The movie is about not losing hope and courage when faced with adversity.It's only during bad times when your character is tested.

 

Movie got released in Ster Kinekor on 21st Nov 2014. More info on twitter and facebook. Check out this movie on big screens before it's taken out.

Cheers!!!

Movie Review - When the Game Stands Tall (2014)

Hi Guys, 

When the Game Stands Tall (2014) is a sports drama movie based on the actual events. The movie is about the record-setting 151-game between 1992–2003 high school football winning streak by De La Salle High School of Concord, California. The movie is based on the novel of the same name written by Neil Hayes and published by North Atlantic Books. De La Salle head coach Bob Ladouceur retired in January 2013 after winning his last Open Division state championship in December 2012 on which the movie is based. 

The sports movies are always based on getting a team together after the initial friction between various team members across various cultural differences and each one coming from a different social and financial background. This movie is also about dreams coming true for some of the athletes as they continue to strive against all odds to win 151 games in a row. 

The movie is directed by Thomas Carter also known for his Coach Carter (2005) movie. The movie has Jim Caviezel as Bob Ladouceur, Laura Dern as his wife, Michael Chiklis, Alexander Ludwig, Gavin Casalegno and Clancy Brown in main roles. It was great to see Alexander Ludwig in this movie after his Hunger Games movie series is a big hit. Jim Caviezel has played his role very well as a coach.

The movie has it's ups and downs and it's always great to watch Sports action drama. Sony Pictures has really got something for all of us this time with this movie. I liked the movie but was expecting to see some more of the action like Coach Carter and other famous sports movies. 

The movie is nice for a good weekend watch on TV. Do catch it up sometime when it's played on the channels.  

Movie has released in Ster Kinekor on 14th Nov 2014. More info on twitter and facebook.

Cheers!!!

Book Review - GOD IS A GAMER - Ravi Subramanian #blogadda

Hi Guys,

Ravi Subramanian is no new name in the books which are thrilling and set against the backdrop of the financial services industry. He wrote his first novel "If God was a banker" in 2008 and there has been a many novels published for all his readers like "Devil in Pinstripes", "The Incredible Banker", "The Bankster", "Bankrupt" and latest addition to these is the new book GOD is a GAMER published by Penguin Books. 

 God is a Gamer is the mixture of reality and fiction. The way author has used Bitcoins and other concepts of Gaming industry and Facebook marketing is amazingly great. The logic to all these connections is like reading a non-fiction or a newspaper editorial or rather a business books. I really could not differentiate the story amongst all the facts and logic presented in this novel. Really loved getting all the knowledge about Bitcoins and it was amazingly great to read as I got some bitcoins from my brother a week before to learn more about them. I did my research of bitcoins that week so this novel really kept me glued to my seats till the time I read it completely. 

The story is about three friends who are big in the corporate world and how their lives are changed as someone tries to hack into their lives. One of the characters lost son comes into the picture and tries to win everything over. Whatever bad happened to their companies, he tries to overcome using his knowledge and experience in the gaming industry. A call center as well as a gaming company's day to day business is affected when someone loots the bank's accounts in US at the same time. Further investigation reveals a lot of unanswered questions and a lot of characters from US Senate, Police and FBI.

God is a gamer is a roller coaster ride through the reality of bitcoins, various surprises and twists at every turn, numerous characters, suspicion, mystery, love, hate and greed. The book will keep you entertained for long and you will want to keep reading it till the end of the same. 

I was able to find out as to who is the main culprit due to my Sherlock Holmes thinking pattern and good mind but I really didn't liked the end of the novel. It was closed randomly and could have been better. Last few chapters were boring as compared to the initial rush of adrenalin that you get. But I think it happens will all the fiction novels as they unravel the mystery and try to solve it for the readers to understand. 

But overall God is a Gamer is a nice read and will keep you on your edges. Is Revenge a Crime? is the answer that you will get if you read the whole book. I really admire the writing of Ravi Subramanian and will go through all his other novels in this new year. The world of Kindle has really made it easy to read any book on your smartphone or tablet or actual kindle devices as soon as it's launched. 

Thanks to Blogadda for their continuous activities to keep us interested in the world of reading via their Book Reviews Program. It's a great pleasure to read new novels before it's launched into the world using bloggers programs. Check more Penguin books at penguinbooksindia.com & follow them on twitter and facebook.

@FrysFamily Vegetarian Event @ Capsicum Culinary Studio, Johannesburg

Hi Guys,

Recently, I was invited to experience something I always wanted to learn. It was an introduction session to cooking Fry's Family products by Chef Candice-Lee Clark. The evening included an interactive cooking session instructed by the Chef along with enjoying the scrumptious vegetarian meals, we prepared using Fry's range of products.

Here is the amazing Veg Chicken-Style Burgers served to all the invitees. They tasted amazingly good with a slice of pineapple over a bun and Fry's Meat Free Burgers.

The venue for this event was Capsicum Culinary Studio in Johannesburg which is also in 5 other locations namely Durban, Cape Town, Pretoria and others.Follow them on twitter, facebook & instagram.

The Chef Candice-Lee taking all of us through some of the best cooking sessions and lessons for life. We were all given the same amount of ingredients and instructions to cook and present our dishes.

Here is my first dish made using Fry's Cruspy Prawns cooked in Coconut curry, Chick peas along with some rice and wrap.

The second round was to make salad using all the veggies available along with Fry's Chicken Style Strips. I used avocado to make the DOME and won a party for me and my 9 friends fully sponsored by the Fry's at my own house. They also gifted us with amazing range of Fry's products to make them at home along with a Fry's recipe book.

I really loved the amazing session and learnt a lot to cook Fry's food in the fastest possible time. Follow them on instagram, twitter, facebook, Pinterest, and website.
