Movie Review - The Equalizer (2014)

Hi Guys,

The Equalizer (2014) is an American action thriller movie which will keep you on your seats till the end of it. It's an awesome movie from the director of Training Day - Antoine Fuqua. The movie stars Denzel Washington as an Equalizer who has faked his own death to run away from his past as a black commando ops. He is ready to help people as and when required and can't stand if someone is being oppressed by force and power.
The movie is slow paced and the things runs in a calm and composed manner throughout the movie. The movie is a great watch and keeps you entertained till the end of it. The action scenes are really awesome as he slowly kills each and every adversity that comes in his path. 

Chloe Grace Moretz looked beautiful and the character of Denzel Washington, McCall wants her to be free from violent Russian Mafia leader Slavi played by David Meunier, who beats her if she doesn't do as per their demands. 

Melissa Leo has played her role well as a US Government official as McCall wants to take permission to go out full on against the Russian mafia as things gets out of control.

Marton Csokas has played his role amazingly well to stand against Denzel as an antagonist in this movie. 

The movie is very well directed with great background music and effects. This movie kept me entertained throughout and also because it's been a while, I have not seen any Denzel Washington's movie. It's a hide and seek kind of action and you will really enjoy the sound effects in the cinema hall.

This movie is worth your time and money in theaters near you if you love action movies. This movie is Sony Pictures along with Village Roadshow Pictures collboration after 2001 movie - Saving Silverman. 

Movie is releasing in Ster Kinekor on 26th Sep 2014. Book your tickets now. More info on twitter and facebook. Check facebook page of Sony Movies SA & their twitter handle also.

Hello Joburg Magazine Launch @HRCJohannesburg - 17 Sep 2014

Hi Guys,

It was one of the most amazing and coolest party of the town as Hello Joburg magazine relaunched themselves with the new Spring issue. The location to celebrate the launch is one of the most happening place in Nelson Mandela Square & Sandton City - HARD ROCK CAFE! It was my first visit to the Hard Rock Cafe and I was immediately impressed by the energy and enthusiasm the place has in it along with the live music.
It was not only the launch of the Hello Joburg magazine but also Hard Rock Cafe introduced their new menu of some mouth watering food and delicacies. More photographs of the #newmenu food are on my Instagram page (@araijain).
We were served with a lot of new dishes by the amazing staff at HRCJohannesburg. There were a lot of sponsors and a lot of prizes for the guests by actively participating in the launch event. We were given an Iced tea with bubbles by @HappyMeSA The tea was nice and I really loved it.
Justyn Spinner welcomed the guests and party was opened with a lot of VIP guests and who's who of Johannesburg City. I met some of the awesome people in the party along with my blogger friends - Katchie & Namritha. Here is Mr South Africa - John Owens with the REKORDERLIG Cidar that was served to all the guests.
After a while when all the guests were part of the party, Bianca Maletsky thanked all the guests for participating in their twitter/HoGello app contests and coming to the launch party. Their #HelloRockers hashtag trended in South Africa for the whole day of the event. She started giving away the prizes by various sponsors to the lucky winners and I too got the Klipdrift goodie bag as the second prize. 
Justyn handed over the prizes to all the winners. It's always great to meet Justyn and he remembered me from our last meeting in June at the launch of #CinePrestige @sterkinekor.
It was time to listen and enjoy to some of the amazing rock music by Cunning Brad.
The Rock music made the party more lively and people started to tap & dance.
I enjoyed my time there at the Hard Rock Cafe with Namritha and Katchie and met Simone Jacobs from Ster Kinekor & Bianca Maletsky for the first time. A party like this is always a great platform to develop good networking with the great celebrities of the town. The new food introduced by the Hard Rock Cafe was really good and I enjoyed it thoroughly within my restricted Vegetarian options.
The Hard Rock Cafe has the round bar and is always full of people enjoying themselves with their family and friends.
HRCJohannesburg also offers a lot of merchandise and collectibles for people to buy and cherish.
In the end, thanks a lot to Hello Joburg magazine for the invite and thanks to Justyn and Bianca for the awesome party. Congratulations to them on this new cover of Hello JoBurg Sep 2014 taken by Yiannis Hadjiaalanis. I again took my #MissionSamsung #NX300 camera for the event and was happy with the photographs.Follow Hello Joburg on twitter and facebook. Follow Hard Rock cafe on twitter and facebook.

Disney Infinity 2.0 - MARVEL Super Heroes

Hi Guys,

Video Games are one of my favorite pastimes and I still remember my dad walked me into one of the video games arcade when I was a small kid and I played some of the amazing games (Battle city & space invaders). I was really hooked since then and really made my parent’s life hell to buy me one from time to time. These days I see the brands are building a whole new platform to play along with the whole family with role play games and new avatars. It has really caught up both young and old alike. A whole new consoles and games are capturing the market with their storylines and high end graphics.
Disney needs no introduction and with unlimited characters in their kitty, they are launching the new version of their Infinity game as Disney Infinity 2.0 This new version is focused on Marvel Super Heroes. The Toy Box Combo pack will include a Disney Infinity 2.0 Base, a Webcode Card (which can be used to unlock digital content online), a Disney Infinity 2.0 poster, the video game software, and two new Toy Box Game Discs. Also the new game is backward compatible meaning that you can use all of your characters that you purchased for Disney Infinity 1.0
The best thing about this game is the capability to create your own story lines and bring in all your favourite Disney characters to play in your unique Toy Box. The Disney Infinity 2.0 Video Game Software that is included in the Toy Box Combo Pack is compatible with all Disney Infinity content, including Marvel Play sets, figures and Power Discs.

Disney Infinity 2.0 has the playsets designed by award winning Marvel Comic writer, Brian Michael Bendis. It includes Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Hulk, Spiderman, Venom, Nick Fury, Nova, Iron Fist, Star Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket Racoon and Groot among various another characters for unlimited fun and entertainment.

Are you ready to join in the adventure as Disney Infinity 2.0 hits stores all over South Africa on 10th Oct 2014!!! Check it out -  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76PqqizffR4

Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes is rated E-10+ by the ESRB. For more information, please visit  www.disney.com/infinity  and  www.youtube.com/disneyinfinity , join the Disney Infinity Facebook community ( Facebook.com/disneyinfinity ) and Google+ community ( https://plus.google.com/+DisneyInfinity ), and follow us on Twitter ( twitter.com/disneyinfinity ) and Instagram ( instagram.com/disneyinfinity ).

For me the wait will be long, as I don’t have a PS3/PS4/Xbox One at the moment, and my Wii and PS2 are in India gathering dust. But I got a chance to play the first version of the game at Disney’s Annual Press launch event and will get another chance before the new version of the game is launched. Till that time do check these gameplays - 
Cheers!!!
