       Even though i like Owen Wilson,i always doubted to watch his movies because they seems a bit slow to me.One of the rare movie which i didn't felt like that was 'Wedding Crashers'.It was a box office success too.So when the same lead pair comes together one more time,the expectations will be high.Let's check if they could fulfill the moviegoers wish.
        Two salesmen who lost their job because digital age is catching upon everybody's life looks for an intership in the biggest tech giant  in the world.Google.How will they cop up with the new young generation and their fast life??..Will they succeed in their journey towards better life?..Will they able to complete the google challenge?.Well, watch the movie to know that.
      I'm sure the story writer might have thought how to put these funny duos back to college life in a more convincing way.Because 'old-people-back-to-college' story has been told many times.And they did succeed by putting these awesome actors in the shoes of two people who are too old for the new technology.It is really a feel good movie and i loved it.It is definitely worth a watch and undoubtedly one of the best movie for both actors.There a briefly detailed scene in a strip club with a lot of nudity and if you watch a censored version you may not understand the flow of the story.I mean the scene is an important part of the story.As support cast Dylan O'Brien,Josh Brener,Tobit Raphael and the gorgeous Tiya Sircar(man i love her!) plays important parts of the story. So what are you waiting for.Go watch the movie now.Buy an unrated copy or a censored one from Amazon.com now for the cheapest prize.

The Heat (2013) (English)

                                               Director : Paul Feig

                                               Genre    : Action, Comedy, Crime

                                               Cast      :  Sandra Bullock,Melissa McCarthy and  Michael McDonald.

           'The Heat' is a 2013 released movie directed by Paul Feig who also directed the super hit movie 'Bridesmaids'.As far as i know 'The Heat' the only third female-buddy-cop-movie made in Hollywood.And i chose the illustrated-looking-poster(above) of this movie to put here because it is the best poster i could find.Now lets get into our review without spoilers.

            This is the story of an uptight FBI special agent(Sandra Bullock) who always do her work without any partners and now is forced to work with a foul-mouthed Boston cop(Melissa McCarthy) to take down a ruthless drug lord.Will they succeed?..Is the foul-mouthed cop really a cop?..Is the FBI agent really works for FBI?..Well, you have to watch the movie to know that.

           I watched this movie because i was impressed by it's trailer and i know Melissa McCarthy is a rising star.Talking about performances,Sandra Bullock as the matured stubborn FBI agent Sarah Ashburn and Melissa McCarthy as officer Shannon Mullins rocks in this movie.If you liked Melissa McCarthy in 'Bridesmaids' and 'Identity Theft',you will love her in this one too.The movie has a different type of sense of humor.There are tongue-in-cheek (watch out for this one) moments and there are hilarious ones.It also has a pinch of emotion and action thrown in.In my suggestion, it is worth a watch.This is a light comedy movie which you can enjoy watching it with your friends and have a good time.As i have already mentioned in the first paragraph,it is just the third female-buddy cop-movie ever produced by hollywood.And it is the only movie in those three which was successful.That might be the reason, the makers already announced a sequel which might have a release date on 2014 or 2015.You can find the unrated version of 'The Heat' here or you can watch it online here.

That's all folks.I can't tell you more than this, or else it won't be justice to the specialty of this blog.'No Spoilers' remember?.Now let me get into the details of my review and why it got so many negative reviews in internet.
      There is one thing about America has,just like some of their movie makers some of the movie reviewers too don't know there is a world outside their house or office.This movie's shooting was plagued with production problems and budgetary concerns, which at one point led to the film's premature cancellation.Some US critics has developed a brainless tendency to write negative reviews about a movie which is not released yet just because the filming has came to a road block due to budget problems.So all those negative reviews you read in internet is written even before those @$*%*# critics saw the movie.The same happened with John Carter(2012).Let me tell you folks,this movie 'The Lone Ranger' is one of the best movie of the year and undoubtedly a computer visual effects(VFx) masterpiece.90% of what you see in the movie is computer generated and you will never realize that.Except some of the obvious ones.Johnny Depp plays the role of Tonto,the mysterious native american warrior who helps John Reid in his adventure filled journey.There are some unexpected hilarious moments which you will never forget.This was the first time Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter acted together in a movie which was not directed by Tim Burton.Movie was commercially flopped due to the'critics' i mentioned above.Since one of the reason this blog started was to introduce everyone to good movies,i can't ignore movies like this.I'm telling you this a must watch movie and don't miss it.Oh yeah, watch out for a train chase.Yeah,you read it right.Now you shouldn't miss scenes like that.

Carlito's Way (English) (1993)

Cliche pose for crime movie posters, but still looks awesome!!

Director  : Brian De Palma

Genre     : Thriller,Drama,Crime

Cast       :  Al Pacino, Sean Penn, Penelope Ann Miller and Luis Guzmán

      There are very few Crime thrillers i love which is based on Mafia Genre or Film noir. Last time i loved one was 'American Gangster'.And now Al Pacino starring 'Carlito's way '.It was released in 1993 which was directed by Brian De Palma, based on the novels 'Carlito's Way' and 'After Hours' by Judge Edwin Torres.

      It is the story of a Puerto-Rican ex-con,Carlito Brigante who is just released from prison and dreams to have a better life outside New York city by retiring from the criminal world despite the pressures which is always trying to pull him back.And he had it all figured out with a perfect retirement plan.But how will he execute it??.And will he able to do it with the love of his life??.You should watch the movie to know the full story.I don't want to ruin your movie watching experience.

    Al Pacino almost lives on the screen as Carlito Charlie Brigante for the entire movie.You will start loving this guy after seeing how genuine he is about his retiring plans.I have never seen Luis Guzmán before in a better supporting role as Pachanga. Nowadays he is just a character for humor in most of the movies.But in this film, he as well as Sean Penn did awesome job in supporting roles.This is a must watch movie people.If you loved American Gangster you will love this one too.Even if you don't like Al Pacino.This movie is also famous for it's beautiful music tracks.The song i loved most in this movie is "You Are So Beautiful" which was performed by Joe Cocker.Trust me you will love that too.Since it is a movie which you should collect you can visit flipkart and buy it from there by clicking the below button.

        Director       : James Hill

        Genre          : Adventure, Family, Drama.

        Cast            :  Virginia McKenna, Bill Travers, Geoffrey Keen and Lions.

      Born Free was a 1966 British movie,which is based on a non-fictional book by the same name and was written by Joy Adamson in 1960.From a film making point of view, it is one of the best movie i have ever seen and it is unbelievably real.And unlike Life Of Pi(where CG tiger was used), in this movie all the animals shown on screen are real.

    The movie and the book says the story of a real life British couple Joy Adamson and her husband George Adamson  who raised Elsa the Lioness, an orphaned lion cub.I have never seen an animal movie so authentically shot (other than movies about pet dogs).It's unbelievable.Some shots are really tricky and we can understand that.Even though at the first five minutes you might doubt this movie for a documentary(because of the narration at the beginning),once you are into it you are definitely going to miss Elsa when you finish watching the movie.

   All i can say is, don't miss this awesomely made British film.It's emotional,entertaining,dramatic and it's a must watch movie.I couldn't find  a better poster in internet so i have inserted the DVD cover of the movie as the poster.I have blurred the summary part so that you won't face spoilers.So what are you waiting for grab a collector's edition by clicking on the below button.

            Director  : F. Gary Gray

            Genre     : Drama,Thriller, Crime

            Cast       : Gerard Butler, Jamie Foxx, Leslie Bibb and Bruce McGill.

   If you are a non-american and if you heard about this movie,then you can consider yourself lucky.Even after being a movie lover and a regular movie viewer,i have no idea why i have never heard about this movie.Even my movie loving friends never mentioned about this one.I still can't believe a good thriller like this got skipped from our radars all these years.!!!

    'Law Abiding Citizen' is a 2009 released Hollywood movie starring Jamie Foxx and Gerald Butler.It's the story of a man who takes the law in his hands when law couldn't help him.The man not only targets his actual enemies but also the corrupt government officials.If you read the single line thread of the plot,you might think that it is the same old revenge story.But there my friend,you are mistaken.What makes this movie interesting is what happens after the 'Law' captures the person who causes problems.Will they be able to stop him??.This is one of the best movie in Gerald Butler's career.

     Internet says the movie was panned badly by critiques in US and got many negative reviews.Well,this officially confirms why a movie like Austin powers got so many fans in US.They simply don't know what a good movie is..!!.I would love to recommend this to anyone who love thriller movies.This is a must watch movie.I didn't wrote much about the movie plot because i don't wanted to ruin the fun.

Silver Linings Of Playbook (2012) (English)

                    Director  : David O. Russell
                   Genre  : Drama,Romance
                   Cast   : Bradley Cooper,Jennifer Lawrence&Robert DeNiro

  I was really not sure if i should write a review of this movie,but then the adorable Jennifer Lawrence got Oscar award for best actress for this movie.Even though some people says she got it only because there was no strong competitors this time,i think she deserves it.May be it will give a boost to her career.Anyway now this is going to be a really really small review,but then again that's why my blog's name is 'MiniMoviReviews'.*wink* *wink*..
      Silver Linings of Playbook says the story of  Pat Solitano who is just got released from a mental institution.He struggles and faces difficulties when trying to get back to his normal life, while moving back to his parents' home.Then he meets Tiffany a mysterious girl from neighborhood who tries to help him.Will she be able to really help him?..And why is she helping him??..Watch the movie to know more..
   Bradley Cooper plays the male lead in the movie and Jennifer Lawrence is Tiffany.Movie's screenplay was adapted from a book of the same name wrote by Matthew Quick.To be frank after the first 15-25 minutes the movie becomes shamelessly slow and miraculously the last 55 minutes gets really interesting and becomes the best part of the movie.Robert De Niro plays the part of Pat's father perfectly.In one sentence, it's the story of a crazy guy, who has a crazy family meets the craziest girl in town.If you really want to watch all Oscar movies,it's worth a watch. Atleast watch the last 55 minutes.Below is a video of Jennifer lawrence press meet after the Oscars which might inspire you.

Rosemary's Baby (1968) (English)

                   Director    : Roman Polanski

                  Genre        : Drama,Thriller

                  Cast          : Mia Farrow, John Cassavetes&Ruth Gordon

    'Rosemary's Baby' is a 1968 American film written and directed by Roman Polanski.It was based on a 1967 best seller novel which was of same name written by Ira Levin.This movie is placed in the wrong genre by most of the websites and movie critiques.I couldn't find much reasons to categorize this movie into the horror genre like most of the other websites.I found the story as dramatic thriller.

    Story starts when a young couple moves into their new apartment.What waits them there is the over caring neighbors.When the wife becomes mysteriously pregnant, fear over the safety of her unborn child begins to haunt her.Now even though i have told the story this much,like the tag line of the movie says "It's not what you're expecting".Trust me.

   This movie is an edge of the seat dramatic thriller till the climax.Climax might disappoint some of you but if you think about it,you will understand why it's like that.Mia Farrow as Mrs.Rosemary Woodhouse did an awesome job in this movie.Some of the scenes i liked is at the first half of the movie where she is completely innocent and tries to settle down in the new apartment another one is the famous phone booth scene.The whole movie is about Rosemary,so it's almost like a one man show.. sorry, one woman show.It has won several awards including academy award and golden globes.This is a must watch movie if you love thrillers.And since there is some complicated scenes which is a bit hard to understand for kids and plot topic itself is bit heavy for kids, I don't think this movie is suitable for minors.So what are you waiting for,if you haven't watched it yet you are missing one of the best thrillers.

Argo (2012) (English)

             Director  :   Ben Affleck

            Genre      :   Drama, History, Thriller.

            Cast       :   Ben Affleck, Bryan Cranston,Alan Arkin & John Goodman

       I saw Ben Affleck first time in a movie was 'State of play'.And to be frank i didn't noticed him.It was obvious because it was a Russel Crowe movie.And no one saw him coming.Then i watched 'The Town' last year only because i heard it was a bank robbery movie.Once i watched the movie,i was very much impressed and was surprised to know the movie was directed by none other than the lead actor Ben Affleck.Now comes 'Argo' the surprise winner of the year.
      The movie is a dramatization of the 1980 joint CIA-Canadian secret operation to extract six fugitive American diplomatic personnel out of revolutionary Iran.The CIA agent Tony Mendez made a rescue plan which was never tried before.His plan was to create a fake film crew and use it as a cover to bring the hostages back.For that he has to start from the scratch.He even hired an Oscar winner make-up artist!. 'Argo' is brilliantly written and directed with small bits of cinematic modifications on the real story.Brad Pitt was first cast as the CIA agent,but he couldn't do it because of other projects.Then Ben Affleck himself had to do it.And it has turned out as one of the biggest movie of the year.
   The movie won awards for 'best motion picture' and 'best director' in Critic's choice awards and Golden globe awards.So sad it is not nominated for Oscars.Otherwise it would've been a sure shot winner.So movie lovers,it's a must watch movie and don't miss it.
