Hello I hope that everyone is at home safe, and away from any danger. I know I promised that I'll do a movie review, but I think that a movie recommandation is better at this situation. You know that everyone is staying at home because of the Quarantine. Movies are there to make our lives better, and espesially if we choose good movies.
So I'm here to recommand some of them for you, as always 3 Hollywood movies and 3 Bollywood ones.
So I'm here to recommand some of them for you, as always 3 Hollywood movies and 3 Bollywood ones.
1- To All The boys: PS I still Love You : 2020
Who of us didn't enjoy the first " To All The Boys I've Loved Before"? I mean it was such a good modern chick-flick, the classic shy girl in high school who ends up with the most popular boy . Lara- Jean wrote love letteres to her crushes, but little did she know that they're gonna be send and read by them.
In the sequal, she gets a letter back from John Ambrose who by the way looks so cute. I'm sorry Peter Kavinski fans, but his character in this sequal is so bad; Jealous, Immature and Unfaithful.
This movie for me wasn't as good as the first one, but I still recommand it.
2- Little Women : 2019
I think everyone is familiar with the famous novel " Little Women", it was so ahead of its time, it talks about feminism, equality and many other themes. I watched the old virgin of it starring Winona Rider as Jo March and Christian Bale as Laurie. I loved seeing the first one so much. But when they said they're going to do a new one, I thought well it cannot top the first one.
In the years after the Civil War, Jo March lives in New York and makes her living as a writer, while her sister Amy studies painting in Paris. Amy has a chance encounter with Theodore, a childhood crush who proposed to Jo but was ultimately rejected. Their oldest sibling, Meg, is married to a schoolteacher, while shy sister Beth develops a devastating illness that brings the family back together.
The problem that I had was why didn't they speak in British, it was so annoying not hear Emma Watson's British accent or Saoirse Ronan's Irish accent.
3-Flight plan: 2005
If you're a huge fan of complicated movies and mind-fuck thrillers, this is the film for you. The performance of Judy Foster is insanly good.
The story follows the husband of aviation engineer Kyle Pratt has just died in Berlin, and now she is flying back to New York with his coffin and their six-year-old daughter Julia. Three hours into the flight Kyle awakens to find that Julia is gone. It's a big double-decker plane, so the very concerned mother has a lot of territory to cover in order to find her daughter. She takes matters into her own hands as she fights to discern the truth.
I recommand watching this movie a loooot.
4- Good Newwz : 2019
This bollywood movie was a huge hit at the box office in India, the concept of the movie and the cast made it even original. The story follows Two couples with the same surnames pursue in-vitro fertilization and wait for their upcoming babies. Trouble ensues when they find that the sperms of each couple have been mixed with each other.
This movie is a combination of comdey and drama,my entire family cried at the end and I loved the performance of Akshay Kumar as Varun Batra.
I recommand this movie so much, it's fun to watch.
5- Chhapaak: 2020
This movie is a biopic of an Acid attack survivor in India. Acid attacks happen in India everyday, this film follows the investigation of the attack to the court proceedings, the medical treatment to the emotional healing. Chhapaak is the story of the unquashable human spirit.
I enjoyed the performance of Deepika, and I cannot another actress do the role rather than her. She gave the character a high doze of emotions, the problem I had is that the first half was kinda dull, and the love story was unecessary for me.
6-Masaan: 2015
Along India's Ganges River, four people face prejudice, a strict moral code and a punishing caste system as they confront personal tragedies.
The storyline follows four lives intersect along the Ganges: a low caste boy hopelessly in love, a daughter ridden with guilt of a sexual encounter ending in a tragedy, a hapless father with fading morality, and a spirited child yearning for a family, long to escape the moral constructs of a small-town.
This movie is a masterpiece, it blew my mind, I was surprised that I didn't know it existed. The performance of a poor young engeneering student played by Vickey Koshal, and as his first role ever wow!!
I need to congratulate the casting director of the film for a perfect magical cast. Even actors casted for Deepak's family are perfect and each actor was realistically believable.
What I noticed about this film is how death plays a role in every character's life, it's a very crtisizing theme that movies should take more often.
This blog is reaching an end, I hope you are staying at home, it's a hard phase and we'll get through it.
