Follow-up

Ain't jobless enough to monologue - but a brief snapshot of the movies i've been watching lately
Ordered chronologically

Hannibal Rising: Greater Insight into hannibal lecter's roots. Starts off well - but loses track in between and then turns boring. Lame finish - lamer climax. Watch it if you are a lecter fan.






The Core: Don't ask me why I chose to see this. Sad. Total saving the world cliche - riot. Sample dialogue between Scientist (S), CIA chief (C), Geologist (G)

C: How long would it take to build the machine (the one to save the world apparently)?
S: I dunno....about 3 years...and 15 million bucks....
C: Good! I want it in 3 weeks and do you take cash?
G(To C): Use your card - atleast you'll get miles (air-miles)....

Aargh...is the word. Don't unless you are a close enough nut case as me.



Malcom X: Haven't wikied much about the real deal. But the movie was elaborate. Took its time to show the shift in Malcom X's perspective towards contemporary america. A must watch despite its inadequacies. Denzel shines. Watch!



Interstate 60: Into the wacky imaginative thoughts of the director. Pretty light movie - ofcourse with its own ridiculous moments. But the sheer lightness of the screenplay and story makes you overlook the stupidities. Close to worth spending 2 hours.

Will Continue....
