The Prestige

After the 2005 movie Batman begins, Christian Bale and Michael Caine are back with Christopher Nolan, the director of Batman series, with a beautifully crafted mystery- The Prestige.

The movie is all about how two friends and assistants (Alfred and Robert) of a magician became enemies after the death of Roberts’s wife in a stage performance. Later in life they both become famous and rival magicians, trying to deliberately destroy or damage each other’s performance.

Scarlett Johansson looks beautiful and does not have much to play.

Fairly, an innovative and twist turning movie of 2006.

The Shawshank Redemption

Not having seen it since its 1994 debut, I just saw the movie last night, to see what the fuss was about. It’s a good, solid, well-crafted drama, and highly rated as one of the greatest films of all time.

It’s a film about a banker Andy Dufresne, played by Tim Robbins, who is accused of double murder and is sentenced for life at the Shawshank prison where he meets Red, Morgan Freeman, an inmate serving life sentence.

The movie talks about hope, friendship and influences in prison.

 Hope is the major theme in the film — the dangers of hope, the necessity  of hope. Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) appears before us as one of the partially imprisoned saint. He spends nineteen years in jail for the double murder he didn’t commit, with a hope that he will be free one day.

I am sure now,you don't want to miss this one.

Lets Begin

Hi!!!! you stupendous cum fantabulous people who think movies are not waste of time but something that
-makes you feel relieved off…
-that gets you out of your routine…
-makes u feel high…
-a booster…
Buts that’s not the only things movies can get you into…

Imagine you all movie buffs, walking into a party and someone asked you, “Hey who is the actor in the movie ‘Two Hands’” and you reply; “Ohh! I guess I missed this one”.

Some of the finest movies from the time it started have never reached its audience… sexual abuse, harrowing tale of heroin addiction, black-and-white animated, negative reviews, indie thriller, no mainstream appeal, no proper theatrical release are some of the excuses that got the distributor to take the bus.

Here in this blog, I am not going to show off my writing skills which I feel is below average neither impressed someone that I own a blog (she already knows it’s free) but yes, a long time aspiration to tell my friends and friends of theirs that here is the list of some amazing movies which I thought you missed it.

So take a back seat and enjoy some of the unheard or some of the movies which was not much talked about…
