Kudos to the team on walking the extremely thin line of insanity. Crank was over the edge insane to a level you give up on the storyline. This however, has an engaging storyline and yet is the craziest thing on TV AFAIK.
Love the lead characters. And never thought I'd see the female lead join the craziness on an even bigger level.

Lucy
(I) (2014)
Staggeringly weird & awesome at the same time.
9 August 2014
I finally caught a show for Lucy.
Huge Scarlett fan so I was sure there is no way this is gonna be a bummer!
I had seen the trailer and I went in for a sort of Limitless, female edition!
Now the movie starts awesome and the special effects are staggering, simply staggering!!
But after the interval even though the effects are still on a high, the movie takes a "VERY" different turn. I was in a state of shock, because I was loving what I was watching, but I had no idea what was happening. I actually knew what was happening, but I simply never saw it coming! The movie takes a steep turn into philosophy and life's meaning.
Yeah think about that, you went in to see your hottie use her brain 100% to gain money and crap, and she is only after knowledge. I wasn't bummed, I was just surprised as to what was happening! XD
This might not seem like a very positive review, but I strongly urge you to see it on the big screen!
Keep a broad broad mind though.

Visually Stunning, a different storyline. Optimus is angry!

Absolutely no idea why people are criticizing Transformers 4. It was a visually stunning experience, with great 3D. It was something other than the old Autobot, Decepticon rivalry. The only issue with the movie was technically an issue with the audience, who are used to Hollywood movies being 90-120 min long at max, and this is 165 min. But it had to be, it was covering all the aspects including Autobot human relations and how they had worsened over time, and how Mark tries to salvage it. Prime is quite unpleased off during the entire movie which might have put off some people, but if you think about it, he has every right to be! I personally loved it!! Can't wait for the next one, where we might see The Seed in action or the original creators
Seek this movie if you have to, but watch it!

Today I came across a movie lying deep under my movies folder, almost at the bottom. At 6.7 it is highly under-rated at IMDb. So soon after I watched the movie I rated it 10, first thing.
It's Seeking a Friend for the End of the World
The cast is fantastic. Fan of Carell (The Office), and who doesn't love Keira. The story pretty much self-explanatory. The direction is superb. The music is a highlight. Shazam'ed lots of tracks! And the ending couldn't have been better (If you haven't seen it, you must think, I'm talking about some big time, 3D, world ending, special effects. But no, it's something very very sweet)
This movie is now, definitely #1 on my 'Feel Good' movies. And if anyone is into that sort of genre, I'd recommend this movie like a pushy salesman!!

Friends with Better Lives
(2014)
Don't compare & you'll love it.
3 April 2014
I have a problem with the way this show was advertised. "Makers of Friends" and an ad which had all the FRIENDS tag lines. They should have promoted it for what it is, and the rating wouldn't be this low.
I for one knew better and didn't compare FWBL to anything. And I enjoyed it. The casting is fine for me except for the engaged guy. I already know Kevin from one of my all time favorites Entourage. Not sure about Majandra, Brooklyn is most probably for the wow factor of the show. But Zoe Lister, you'll just love her cynic role.
It is just one of those sitcoms where the story is about the life of a group of friends, but no matter how many times we've seen this story (HIMYM, Friends, TBBT), we can never get enough. I for one, connect best with Zoe.
Overall, I'll definitely follow this show and see how it turns out. And you too should give it a chance. It's not FRIENDS Part 2, it's a NEW SHOW! 9/10

Need for Speed
(2014)
The rare reviewer: Epic racing movie. 10/10
28 March 2014
I barely write reviews. I write only when people are misled by dumb critics. Before I tell you about the movie, I've realized this that Rotten Tomatoes is possibly the worst review website on the web.
Well, you should know that the movie is 100% real, which means no cgi effects were used in the movie. This makes every stunt 10x impressive and every scratch to a car 10x heart pinching.
Please do not compare the movie to Fast & Furious series. FF is a decade old series whose characters are like family now. NFS is fresh on the block with new faces and a new story. It's like comparing Oceans series to The Italian Job. The movie features some of the BEST cars abandoned right now like the McLaren P1, Lamborghini Elemento, Koenigsegg Agura and the Shelby Mustang *droooool*
The story makes perfect sense and the acting by Imgoen Poots & Aaron Paul will never let you down, not one scene. The stunts are ample and you'll never feel bored for a moment. I honestly didn't find a single flaw and hence the 10/10 rating. Please watch it at a cinema near you instead of regretting later while watching on your laptop.

Seven Psychopaths
(2012)
You have to see it to judge yourself. Don't go by the reviews.
30 January 2014
An amazing star cast to begin with and an even better starting to the movie got me really interested. The characters were all given enough amount of screen time as they deserved. The plot was very well handled considering it had so much story and so many characters. I never felt something was missing. I cannot elaborate on the story because you HAVE TO see it to know it. It's just one of those movies. I can just tell you, you won't regret it. The ending made perfect sense to me and so did the entire movie, but I did read a few IMDb reviews where people are not, I guess satisfied or maybe the trailer showed it as a spoof movie, which it is so not. This is a genuinely well thought out crime movie with dark humor. For me though it was a perfect 10.
Rush
(I) (2013)
The tag line is perfect - "Everyone is driven by something"
10 January 2014
I frankly am a fan of racing sports (mostly car, not super bikes) so I had very high expectations from this movie already.
First off the star cast is excellent and possibly the best suited ones. Chris Hemsworth - the flamboyant James Hunt. Perfect! Daniel Bruhl - the serious Nicki Lauda - Perfect as well!
What I expected was that I'd love this movie for its amazing and intense Formula 1 racing scenes as seen in the trailer. And let me just say, they couldn't have been better. The direction is AMAZING. Focusing on those curves, gravel from the tires, head to head racing views, the audience enthusiasm, weather conditions, the pit crew, the celebrations, everything was spot on!
But to my surprise that's not what I loved about the movie. What I absolutely loved was the portrayal of Hunt & Lauda by the actors. Their friendly rivalry, the passion, the courage, the decisions, the situation handling, the press conferences. But mostly the passion for the sport be it for different reasons. The ending was incredibly suitable and great too.
I simply loved it. An undoubted 10/10

Sucker Punch
(2011)
You either love it or you hate it. It's guilty pleasure for me!
30 December 2013
Yeah, it's one of those movies which you're either like "WTF am I watching?" or "Wow, this is so bad ass." For me it was the latter. The story is about this girl in an institution where she uses Dance as her survival. Her dance takes her into this weird but amazingly shown places where she basically fights off real problems shown as monsters & magic. The ending in my opinion was really unexpected and awesome! The cinematography is stunning and so are the soundtracks. The star cast, not famous, but gorgeous, does a pretty good job too specially the lead. If you're into details, the weapons, swords, statues, castles everything is right to a perfection. The only reason someone would hate this movie is if they try to watch it with logic. Keep an empty mind and let the movie flow! Just enjoy it without applying thoughts!
The Hangover Part III
(2013)
Worth the laugh! No idea why everyone is so Nancy about it!
21 September 2013
So first thing straight, this movie is the 3rd part of the Hangover series but unlike the first two, there is no Hangover and the a similar story line, where they try to remember what happened! Right here everyone looses their mind!
But if you look at it closely, it's actually better this way! There is still the chemistry, specially with Chow, and throughout the movie you will laugh & smile! Also the ending was hilarious giving an open spot for a maybe Part 4! You should definitely watch it, if cynical, at least at home.
9/10

God Bless America
(2011)
I Never add reviews, but this time!!
17 April 2012
God Bless America! this movie, this is one wake up call! This movie is about how messed up our current generation is. I myself am 21 years old but i have enough maturity to know whats right and wrong, whats acceptable and whats shameful. But kids younger than me (Even in India) are so fcked up right now, i cant imagine the horrible future we have ahead of it.
All in all, God not only bless America but this entire moron world filling up fast with nothing but kids and teenagers idoling Jersey Shore so called stars, iPod Blackberry fanatics and other such low level idiots.
Though i don't see how even God can help us now. Frustration aside, WATCH THIS MOVIE!! but try not to kill someone after watching it, as am i trying desperately now..!!
