Movie Review - The Longest Week (2014)

Hi Guys, 



The Longest Week (2014) is a situation comedy drama movie directed by Peter Glanz and it's the first Yash Raj Films venture into Hollywood as the movie is produced by Uday Chopra and Neda Armian. 

The movie starts Olivia Wilde, Jason Bateman, Billy Crudup in the lead roles. Olivia Wilde looks beautiful in this movie. The movie is a story about a rich boy as his inheritance of a hotel is divided among his fighting to-be-divorced parents and he is thrown out of the hotel for a week. He then stays with one of his friends and falls in love with the girl who his friend also loves. It's his fight to survive amongst all odds and still live the luxurious lifestyle he is used to makes the context of the story. The conversations between the Jason and Billy characters are funny and only part that keeps you engaged to this movie. 


The movie has nothing great to offer unless you want to see some of the good cinematography. The acting part is nice but the story is old. The movie is very slow and requires a lot of patience to keep watching it. You can wait for it to be played on TV or can totally avoid the same also. 


Movie got released on Ster Kinekor on 28th Nov 2014. More info on twitter and facebook.


Cheers!!!

Hi Guys, 

Mr. Turner (2014) is a biographic drama movie based on the life of Joseph Mallord William Turner who was the British Painter known for his paintings of wrecked ships. The movie is written and directed by Mike Leigh.
Mr. Turner Lead role is played by Timothy Spall. This movie will be known only for his portray of the famous painter. He really has acted exextremely well and brought the character to life. 
  The movie shows the life of Mr. Turner in the later part of his life as his father dies and his dedication towards his work. He comes across various women in his life and is sexually involved with his housekeeper and a seaside landlady. His dedication to arts was so immense that he tied himself to the mast of the ship to get a view of the snowstorm which leaves him suffering from pneumonia. 

Dorothy Atkinson has played the role of the faithful housekeeper who always loved the painter till his end. She has brought some comic angle to the serious story with her acting. Marion Bailey has acted as the seaside landlady who falls in love with Mr. Turner and it's her house where he dies in the end. 

The movie has it's ups & downs and coming to age is also shown by the fact the painting were slowly replaced by the invention of Cameras. Timothy has really lived the character and it might be his Oscar winning performance this year.   
Check out the movie if you like to see UK's amazing cinematography and the acting of Spall. Otherwise movie is very slow and serious and won't be liked by the young generations unless they are the students of Arts etc. Mr. Turner (2014) is releasing in Ster Kinekor on 19th Dec 2014.

Movie Review - Leading Lady (2014)

Hi Guys, 

Leading Lady (2014) is a South African drama romantic comedy movie set in beautiful South Africa.The movie is directed by Henk Pretorius and stars Bok Van Blerk and Katie McGrath in the lead roles.
Katie McGrath is playing the role of teacher who comes to South Africa from London to prepare herself for the role of Afrikaans war heroine. Katie is known for her role of Morgana in "Merlin" TV series. She looked beautiful in this movie set in the beautiful South African landscape. 

Bok Van Blerk has acted as a farmer thinking about selling his lands as he is under a lot of debt. As he fights his dilemma there is a different preparation going on for the annual concert at his farm. As they induct people into the concert, some of the funny scenes are created. The movie is a light hearted romantic drama as both of them continues to discover the cultural differences between the individuals.  

Brumilda Van Rensburg has really created a marvel and brings a lot of laughter with her character. One dialogue I especially remember is that "In this part of South Africa, even Chicken is vegetarian" when serving food to Katie's character as she visits them and tells them she is vegetarian. Gil Bellows has acted very well in his role. Check out for his character as it brings a lot of drama & laughter to the whole story.

Overall, Leading Lady (2014) has something to keep you to your seats as story develops and cinematography is especially great. Check out the movie for it's local taste as it's not always we get to see movies featuring South Africa in detail. 

Movie got released in Ster Kinekor on 28th Nov 2014. Check out the movie now to support the local South African movies. More info on twitter and facebook.

Movie Review - John Wick (2014)

Hi Guys, 

John Wick (2014) marks the return of the Matrix Trilogy producer/director and actor. Keanu Reeves plays the title role of John Wick directed by Chad Stahelski and Produced by David Leitch along with Eva Longoria. 
John Wick (2014) movie is a hard core action thriller drama set in America. John Wick is the retired hitman who earlier helped the Russian mafia to take over the whole city. The Russian leader is played by Michael Nyqvist as Viggo. When Viggo's son Losef played by Alfie Allen from the GAME OF THRONES fame kills John Wick's dog gifted by his dying wife, their relationships turmoils. John wants to kill Losef while Viggo tries to save his son. This sets the context of the movie and whatever happens is run and chase story with a lot of fighting sequences that will keep you glued to your seats. 

The movie also stars Williem Dafoe, Dean Winters, Adrianne Palicki, Bridget Moynahan, Ian McShane and John Leguizamo amongst various others. The movie has a nice thrill attached to it as new elements are introduced in the movie. How John Wick overcomes each and every one of them is what keeps viewers hooked to the movie. 

The movie has a lot of close combat scenes and a lot of gun shoots sequences. The movie is really a must watch for all the fans of action and Keanu Reeves. The story has nothing to offer but this movie will be known for it's amazing action effects. I liked the movie but as compared to The Equalizer or No Good Deed, I really liked The Equalizer much more than this one.

Do check this one out as the movie is releasing in Ster Kinekor on 19th Dec 2014. Book your tickets now. More info on twitter and facebook.

Cheers!!!

Walking on Sunshine (2014) is the story of two sisters as they fall in love with the same guy and all the emotional drama that comes with the same. The story has nothing new to offer but the intermingling of songs in this drama is nice. The chosen songs are really feet tapping and will make you want to sing along. If you love musicals then this movie will really make you happy. 

Annabel Scholey and Hannah Arterton plays the role of the sisters who falls in love with Giulio Berruti. Annabel Scholey has really acted very well in this movie and she looked beautiful. I really liked her as she is main character of this movie all along. The shooting locations of Italy are very great and makes you go for a holiday asap.
