Final Destination 5

FD5

Few years back, I was a fan of movies which depicted horrific deaths. Final Destination 5 does manage to bring back those back. I think that after FD2, the movies had went down hill and predictable with some nonsense way to cheat death.

Captain America – The First Avenger

The release in India has been around 2 weeks delayed than the world release. You will find that’s good once you are done reading this blog. The main attraction for me was that Marvel studios had put out another superhero movie after Iron man and Thor. It’s no secret that I am a big fan [...]

X Men First Class

XMenFirstClass

The movie begins with a child bending metal gates and is a perfect intro into the Nazi times Poland… The movie is bit slow paced but I felt it justified as here focus is more on history of  of Prof X/Charles Xavier (played by James McAvoy), Erik Lehnsherr/Magneto (Michael Fassbender), Raven/Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Hank McCoy/Beast (Nicholas Hoult)….
