This week I watched many movies.. Here is the list

The man from Earth(2007):

A Strange story but very interesting to watch.  In a send off party, a professor telling to his colleagues “I am living in this earth for last 14000 years”.. After this, there is big conversation going between these people.. Some one believes him and some others not believing him.. You can see the director brilliance in this movie.. I recommend to watch this movie.. its really very interesting to watch. Check more about this movie in this link

Rope(1948):

This is the my 5th alfred hitchcock movie I watched.  I expected lot, but this film is good not a great one like “dial m for murder” and “rear window”.

Naked Gun 1 & 2:

I like to watch spoof movies.  This spoof is really hilarious.  I like the Naked gun 1 and 3.  Its very fun to watch.  Naked gun 2 is little bit boring.

The Prestige(2006):

Wow.. What a movie!! Its really awesome. Chirsopher Nolan the director of “The Dark Knight” directed this movie.  Hugh Jackman and Chtistian bale both are acted very well.. I like Hugh Jackman acting, he really rocks in this movie.  The story is about cold war between two magicians.  The big twist in climax makes movie awesome.  Dont miss this movie.

Elegy(2008):

Slow movie.  Good story, good acting, very emotional. But I feel boring while I watch. Its good to watch for touching romantic story lovers.

Trainspotting(1996):

British movie  from the director of  “slumdog millionaire“.  Movie about drug addicts.  The story is about the man who want to recover from the drug addiction.  Its a OK movie.. Not so good. The other movie about drug addict “Requiem for a dream” is better than Trainspotting. Requiem for a dream is one of my favorite.

Hannibal Rising(2007):

Horror movie.  Hero takes revenge who kills her sister during the II world war.  Some of the German officers killed hero sister and ate for dinner. After hero grown up, he killing the officers very horribly.  Not so good. I dont like this movie.  dont waste the time.

Anger Management(2003):

Good one.  Having lot of fun.  I laughed lot in some of the scenes. Legend actor Jack nicholson and Adam sandler are starring in this movie.  worth a watch.

The Pursuit of Happyness(2006):

A superb performance by Will smith.  I saw different will smith in this movie.  Will smith always do action movies, but its really different.  My friends always told me to watch this movie, but I am not found right time to watch this movie.  But finally I watched this.  Really a good movie.  The father and little son relationship is so good.  This movie is based on a true story. Dont miss this.

Today is Unforgettable day for all indians. A.R.Rahman won 2 oscars for the best background score and original song in Slumdog Millionaire.  I really excited when he won oscars.  I am very happy now.. I dont know how to congratulate him, so i chose my blog to congratulate him.  I am great fan of him and I always like to hear his songs.  A.R.Rahman is a living legend. Whole indians are really proud of him.

Today I was very eager to watch oscar ceremony at morning, but star movies channel is not telecasting in my cable tv (bull shit!). Then I decided to ask my friends to update the oscar results, but no one in online except one.. My singapore friend was in online, when I asked her for update oscar results, she told me “sorry I have to study for tomorrow exams”..(oh no!!!) After this, I dont know what to do.

Suddenly Live tv in internet strike out in my mind. Then I watched the full oscar ceremony in live tv. OMG, I forget about the bandwidth usage.. Finally I checked the usage after the end of the ceremony.. oops I exceed my limit of internet usage. Still five more days to go to complete this month, but my bandwidth exceeds.. 000… very bad.. anyway I am going to pay extra fee to BSNL… :((

See the girl in the above picture.. Oh my god, how many kilos of jewels she wearing!! I heard about grand marriage. see here this is grand grand marriage. lolz.. See her neck, lot of necklaces (I bet she got pain in neck after marriage ceremony). See her hands, lot of bangles.. My friend told this picture was taken in Satyam chief ramalinga raju’s daughter marriage. I dont know whether this is correct news or not.. But it is an interesting picture to see.

This week I saw some interesting movies, Here I am telling how I feel about these movies.

50 First Dates(2004):

A very nice romantic comedy.  This movie is really enjoyable. I can say this movie is the best of all adam sandler movies.  Even adam sandler is good but Drew barrymore steals the show..

Dial M for Murder(1954):

One of the Masterpiece of Alfred Hitchcock.. 90% of the movie shooting was taken in only one room, but u wont get bored till the end.  While I watching movie, I always think what will happen next.. This film is old but gold.

Anand(2004) - Telugu:

After a long time, I watched the telugu movie.  I always like to watch romantic movies.  So only I downloaded this movie and I watched.  I expect lot of romance in this movie, after I watched, my expectations are fulfilled :).. My favorite telugu movies are Arya, Nuvosthanante Nee othantana, Bommarillu.. Now I added this movie also one of my favorite telugu movie.

Malizia(1973) - Italy:

Last week I searched for the good classic italian comedy movie. Then I got this movie.  This movie is strictly for adults. Because story is like that.. The story is the widower and his 3 sons fall in love with there beautiful maid. Watch this movie for fun.  I laughed lot in most of the scenes.  But avoid watching this movie with family.

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly(2007) - French:

Wow… What a fantastic movie!! This is one of the best movie i have ever seen.. very touching story.. This film about a true story of french author Jean-Dominique Bauby.

The story is “Elle France editor Jean-Dominique Bauby, who, in 1995 at the age of 43, suffered a stroke that paralyzed his entire body, except his left eye. Using that eye to blink out his memoir, Bauby eloquently described the aspects of his interior world, from the psychological torment of being trapped inside his body to his imagined stories from lands he’d only visited in his mind.” (source: Imdb).

Now this is one of my favorite movies. Highly recommended.

Taken(2008):

Very good action thriller.. Now its running as blockbuster in US.  I like this movie.  Stunts are really good and good entertainer also.  This movie is worth a watch and very good action movie too..

Shoot’em up(2007):

Awesome actions and big Heroism.  Clive owen rocking in this movie. Moniacca bellucci really hot.. You can hear full of gun shots in this movie.  Dont think about the logic in the action scenes.. Ignore the logic, its the big entertainment, and It is truly good for action movie lovers.

Check the internet speed in the above image.  11mb/sec… This image was given by my friend who was in korea last year.  He got the download speed 11 mb/sec. If we have this speed, We can download one 700mb dvdrip movie within 2 mins. Imagine that.. Its really awesome.. But in our india, we have 2 mbps broadband speed but download speed never exceed more than 270kb/s and one more thing is we dont have unlimited usage for 2mbps broadband connection. It really sucks. When will I get this kind of broadband speed!! Is it possible to get within next 5 years?? I dont think so..

Check out the another image shows the graph of download speed of different countries. This broadband download speed survey taken on october 2007. Now we are in 2009.  I think now japan, korea are having download speed more than 100mbps..

This week I watched  less movies only.. I watched many slow movies this week because I like to watch all great movies in world cinema.. some times I slept while watching slow movies,  after that I rewind the scenes and watched one more time.  But my aim is to want to know why that slow movies appreciated by everyone. So only I am watching this slow movies with patience.

Here I listed the movies which watched last week..

The Motorcycle Diaries(2004):

This movie is the biography of younger age cuba freedom fighter Che Guvera .. Its very nice movie.. but very slow moving screenplay. Those who like to know about che guvera, watch this movie.

Executive Decision(1996):

Good entertainment movie.. Action thriller.. Kurt russel and steven segal acted in it.  If anyone want to see movie for good timepass, see this movie…

The 36th chamber of shaolin(1978):

Very good chinese action flick.  I heard this movie was running successfully in india 25 years back. The story is a hero wants to complete all the 35 challenges to become a kungfu master.

Body double(1984):

I watched this movie in HBO when I was studying 8th std.  On that time I am not saw that movie completely.  This movie has good thriller like alfred hitchcock movies.  This movie has lot of erotic scenes also.  so avoid watching this movie with family.  This movie maintained the thrill feeling throughout the movie, but the climax is really sucks.

Fight Club(1999):

Awesome movie… At first When I was watching this movie, I really felt bore. Because I did not get the story and I got confused about many scenes.  In this 2 and half hour movies, first 2 hour is full of confusions and last half hour of the film is really rocking.  Big twist in the climax and very well acted by edward norton and brad pitt. I highly recommend the people to watch this movie.  I think director shankar copied the concept of split personality from this movie for anniyan(tamil).

Pather Panchali(1955):

When I watching this movie, two of my friends came to my home and teased me lot. Because this film is very old indian movie in bengali language.  Then I stopped watching this movie for some time and resumed this movie after my friends left my home. I watched this movie because of  the great legend director satyajit ray.. He is the only indian director won the oscar.  So I am was very eager to watch this movie. Finally I watched. Its very realisitic movie. This movie depicts the indian culture, poverty and reality of people. This movie has tragedy end.  Anyone want to watch master piece of satyajit ray, watch this movie.

The color of Paradise(1999):

Very good movie with touching story. One of the best Iran movie. This film is directed by Majid Majidi. I already saw his great movie “The Children of Heaven”.  The boy acted in this movie is really a blind boy.

Airplane!(1980):

Hilarious.. I enjoyed while I was watching this movie. Lots of fun in it.  This is the best spoof film of all time. This film is the spoof of the old classic hit movie Zero Hour!.. If any one want to enjoy and laugh at every minute, watch this movie.

For last few days, most of the people in india talking about Slumdog millionaire movie..  There is lot of controversies still going on tv channels, newspapers and blogs.. Some of them telling its an oscar worth movie but some of them telling “showing indian poverty to western people is an oscar worth??” … I dont know what to tell about this.. One foreign guy  made a funny clip about slumdog millionaire movie.  check out this and comment about it..
