The wolf of Wall street

Watch this movie with no expectations, open mind and open time, Other wise you are gonna be very disappointed.
Leo is amazing, sex scenes are very illustrative, the character is a genius, BUT, everything is too much in this movie. They could give you the summary in 30 minutes and you'll be good to go.

Someone told me I need to do some research about the main character , " Jordan Belfort" , and watch his interviews to understand him and then the movie will make sense,well I didn't and though I am extremely attracted to genius people, It failed to satisfy me.

On top of all of that, the movie was extremely sexist, Which I know it was only telling the story, but I strongly believe how it can affect people's perspectives.

At the end of the day with the names like Leo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese , it is is inevitable not to watch this movie, I give 4/10 and sorry Not sorry

American hustle

Living in the US for almost 5 years, never noticed English can be challenging some times, but this movie was a little bit an eye opener, almost half way through the movie I had no idea the word they are non stop using is "Sheik" which after finding out the movie made a whole lot more sense , LOL

A very much entertaining movie , with perfect acts , interesting story line, surprising moments but not a lot to say other than anyone is hustling to get something in life ;)

The story is about a bunch of con artists( very good ones) who are tricking other people who join them in their journey with the promise of getting what they want.

The strongest part of the movie in my opinion is the characters, each one of the is perfectly shaped and defined and played but amazing actors and actresses. you can easily relate to them and understand them and I believe their personalities and reactions are what is movie is made of more than the actual story.

I think everyone will like this movie in a way or other, I give 5/10 to this

The book thief

Hey all,
I postponed updating my blog cause so much has been happening in my life ( to the positive direction) which also made me not have enough time to watch as much as i want. But last night I realized I am forgetting about some of the movies I watched recently, So I decided it is the time.

The most recent movie I watched was "The book thief" and I am gonna start with that and go back in the upcoming posts.

For those of you who know me well, it is obvious that reading is one of my obsessions and nothing is more appealing to me than a movie that has to do with it. and this movie also didn't let me down.

A movie with a strong female in lead , about books and with the WWII environment, couldn't be more complete for me.
Movie happens in around 1940, in Stuttgart, Germany. A young girl is adopted by a German couple, after she lost her little brother. she immediately starts bonding with the new dad and a little boy in their neighborhood, the girl can not read but holds this passion for books and stories in her heart. With the help of the dad she starts reading, In the meanwhile she makes a very strong relationship with a Jewish young guy they are hiding in their basement. I am gonna stop here and ask you to go watch the movie, because it is nice, and refreshing and very emotional.

I love the acts, specially the young girl is doing a great job, the story is very nice but the movie jumps forward too many times which might be annoying for some.

I recommend this movie to anyone slightly interested in history and give 7/10 to it !!!

We are the Millers

I have this disability that i hate funny movies, I mean i like it if a movie is funny, but i rarely find "funny" movies funny ;D
I resisted watching this movie for so long because i am not interested in its actors and the whole family, funny tone of it. But you always get to the point that you just watch those movies that you don't think you like and i was surprised.
The story of the movie is very stupid, a drug dealer, a stripper, a homeless teenage girl and a stupid kid who get together to smuggle a huge amount of pot into the US Under cover of a happy family.

A series of funny events happen and so on

There is not much to say other than that if you are bored and have nothing else to do, this is a good pick ,and i give 5 out of 10 to this movie.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

Listen to the theme song here

Why did i wait to watch this movie so long (almost a week)? i was too afraid and excited and Peter Jackson never gets to disappoint me. Everything is perfect about this movie and the fact that i need to wait more than a year to watch the next part is just heart breaking.

I have noticed this transformation or better say expansion of my taste in movies after i realized how much i enjoyed watching hobbits. Because I got so many people saying that oh no, we don't like this kind of movies with imaginary creatures and fighting and unrealistic events and i couldn't agree more, but all the special effects,costumes, scenery , i think make make hobbit much more than a pop corn movie, it is more like a piece of art.

Back to the business i am sure y'all know, this part the dwarfs are still on the journey to get to the mountains and they encounter the elves jungle where they are caught and set in their prisons and so many amazing events happen which i am not going to talk about here.

For sure, this movie is a must see ( make sure you watched the first one and lotr before because there are a lot of references which i needed to check with my friend). and i give 8/10 to it. Enjoy ;D

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Imagine the first hunger games movie and how amazing it was, now multiply it by 5, and this would be your experience of watching the second movie.

I am still amazed after 12 hours , somehow i wish i hadn't watched the movie so that i could watch it one more time for the first time!!!

Catching fire is the second movie of the hunger game trilogy,and after a year, it became more mature,better acts, better special effects a little bit darker, a little bit deeper, just to the right amount.

The storyline is after the last game, people at the districts started fighting against the system more, and now they have hope that something might change.on the other side, people at the capital are scared and they are trying to find a story to keep people busy with. So they decide they are going to have a game this year, with all the winners of the past games. And once again from district 12, Katnis and Peeta are going with the promise that they have to make people believe in their love.

I am not going to spoil the movie here, so I just tell you that the game is much more exciting and scary this time, and the dynamic between the contestants is much more interesting because they have the same mission.The movie is not just another action movie with pretty special effects, the drama is more mature so the movie will have a broader audience this time.

I am jus saying, get up and go watch the movie !!! please ;)

P.S. as an addition to the cast, there is an absolutely charming guy in the movies and ladies, you don't wanna miss that .

Before midnight

Right after i started watching this movie i realized it is the sequel to before sunrise and before sunset, two of the most touching ( not the best) movies i ever watched.

The movie depicts a sad truth about life, which is everything is passing, nothing lasts forever and nothing is eternal. And if you believe in this fact, which is very hard for some people, life would be very easy. It is simply saying don't look at your relationships as promises that are made in another world for you, do not expect too much and do not expect them to be perfect. No two people are meant to be together, nothing is meant to be, things happen and one should learn to enjoy them before they end.

The story happens when the guy and the girl are finally together, living in France with their twin girls, while the guy's son is living in the US with her mom.

It starts with the son leaving France after a summer break and the guy starts having the idea of moving back to the US to be close to his son, while the girl is just starting a new successful career.

For a trip they go to Greece and live with a group of people for a couple of days,meanwhile they go through a very sensitive stage of their relationship when they have to decide what is that make them stay together, If any.

I believe the challenges of a relationship is beautifully shown in this movie, i could connect easily and remember times of my life where i was going through the same questions and doubts. The story is very simple and it just wants to let the audience know that they have to pass through all those details that might or might not matter in one's life and look at what they have right now and how important that is in their lives.

I liked this movie very much though it was not all sweet and feeling good and i give 7 of 10 to it.
