Number 23

Another thriller movie day today.. I must say the movie opening is great...with all those groovy numbers and alphabets...And the flick is worth watching once or maybe twice to review all thats said at the end...A fast and sublime thriller,with an incredible storyline(an amazing feat by the writers- cooking up everything to somehow end up with the number 23) and not to mention the script !Story is: man(Jim Carrey) gets obsessed with a book reflects his life soo much - all events in the book match with real life incidents - he realizes that the book actually is the literary confession of a killer under the name Fingerlings- sets out to find who he is -his hunch turns out to be wrong! - the Book has the final chapter '23' missing,which is kinda like the missing link in the story - Watch the movie to find out the rest :P

So the killer turns out to be ?????? The movies worth a watch,i.e., if you have absolutely no great job to do and want some psychopath ,serial killer mind baffling story :D !

The end is no happy ending.But I absolutely love the way the script made up for that.... "Maybe its not the happiest of endings ..but its the right one.Some day I'll be off the parole and then we can go on living our lives..its only a matter of time....of course time is just a counting system,numbers with meaning attached to them(clock shown in film 2:15 [clock hands on 2 and 3 get it :P])......Isn't it?"

3.89 stars to it from my lounger for this movie with a twist thats totally jawdropping!

The Butterfly Effect

The Butterfly Effect(nice title huh?) is one super cool,never seen before,heard before kinda movie.. Its about this guy who has this supernatural syndrome(who wouldn't call it supernatural if you could re-write your destiny) which makes him to go back and forth in time and take the different crossings on the road of life.(Reminds me of one South Indian movie 12B,in which Shyam takes 2 crossings in his life..but thats just a movie portraying his life if he had chosen option1 and his life as in option 2) But in this story the guy having this memory problem (that causes him black outs) tries to rewrite his fate by going back to childhood and doing a particular something ;) differently each time.This trial and error algorithm goes on and on.. and what happens in the end is really dramatic !

Its definitely one of a kind thriller and deserves a 4star thumbs up from my lounger !

Race

My oh My ..!! Race is one really good movie!!!

At the onset,we get the thought - this is going to be some movie associated with horse races and gambling(well i did..confused)only later you realise its not the race of the animal.. its that of the beasts...Well..(forgive me) but what do you call two cold-blooded siblings who are against each other,planning highly staked games involving Life!!! As the storyline progresses , you really get confused about who the good guy is , bad guy is.. is there any good guy at all..!@!*)!

Well... anyway .."Expect the unexpected" is the tag that I feel suits  this!!

A gripping and fast moving thriller....well not a thriller..A Suspense movie keeping the audience stuck till the end !

4 stars to it from my lounger
