Wreck it ralph

In the past couple of weeks i didn't have enough time to visit theaters as much  and as frequent as i usually do, hence i didn't have enough time to review what i watched.
I want to start the reviews of what i watched by the animation wreck it ralph.
You don't need to be a video game fan to like this movie  but Of course if you are a video game player you would connect.

Once again i fell in love with another Disney creation. It is witty , funny and colorful.
The story of a nice guy with a bad character from a video game who needs to be appreciated, which is an odd thing for a bad character. He jumps through different video games and become friends with a little girl.

I must confess the movie does not worth paying $13 to go to theater or $17 for the 3D, because it didn't have any 3D effect.


But it was a CUTE movie, which at the end outs a smile on your face.

I will give a 6/10 to this movie.

The perks of being a wallflower





This movie had one goal and it could certainly achieved it and it was being different.
I have been hearing so much about this movie for the past months, mostly from my guy friends and mostly because they were eager to see Emma Watson in something other than harry potter ( i agree, she is one of the cutest creatures ever) .
I got lucky because we have a little movie theater right next to our school which mostly screens what i call "special audience" movies which are supposed to be deeper.
The atmosphere of the movie was a bit unfamiliar for me, because i never experienced that whole "first day of high school, being the cool kid, finding the perfect girl or guy ", and this is one of the favorite subject in Hollywood.

but there is saying that " whatever comes from heart, goes right into heart " and this movie was one special example. I deeply felt for all the characters and understood them all.

As you might probably find out, this movie about a guy who is starting high school and is somehow "different" because of a tragedy that happened in his childhood.luckily he finds a group of friends who understand him and he falls for one of them. All of them are graduating this year and he gets to confront his fears in life.

I am giving this movie 8/10, but i am telling this is a biased judgement because i waited so long to watch the movie and it didn't disappoint me. ;)

Scoop

Woody Allen is one of the few people who can entertain me easily, and this time he is even more successful.
with a whimsical suspicious almost comedy movie about a young American journalism student (Scarlett Johansson) who is in UK for a vacation , and there she get to know a so called magician from US ( Woody Allen) at one of his performances.She volunteers for one of the tricks and in the magic box she meets the ghost of a famous journalist, who tells her that a series of murders are being done by an English man from a famous family.
With the hope of getting a scoop out of this story she starts investigating, but as she gets to know the guy she falls in love with him...
Woody Allen's act in this movie is hilarious, as usual he has the role of a goofy person with good sense of humor.

I would definitely recommend watching this movie if you want something different for a change.

I give 6/10 to Scoop

Think like a man

When i heard about this movie i thought oh thank God, it is going to solve all my relationship problems ;) lol , yeah i AM that naiive. but when i saw the poster and realized all the actors and actresses are African American i was disappointed. Don't get me wrong, i am not a racist or anything like that, it is just different group of people have different cultures, so if it was a Persian movie i would be most excited.
Anyway, after watching it i realized it was a trap, it didn't solve my relationship problems, it just entertained me for 2 hours.

Overall i liked the movie very much. it was about 5-6 different type of relationships, like when the guy is too much attached to his mom, when the girl is too powerful and successful, when the guy is a player , etc. and then a handbook comes out and girls start following it and some more things happen and at the end everyone live happily ever after.

I would recommend this movie only if you just want to spend time and be entertained. and it is going to get 6/10 from me.

XOXO

The Very Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

My sister is my best inspiration is choosing what to watch, she has that kind of smartness about media. I always ask her about books, movies and songs and she is kinda like a media guru for me ( i know it is too much but she is my sister and i adore her)
Anyway, some weeks ago she recommended that i watch this movie.I checked it online and realized there are so many good actors in it and despite the fact that people in the movie are from 2 generations older than me i decided to watch it at our local dollar theater.

This movie is such a feeling good movie, my smile never disappeared from my face and my friend told me i was so happy at the end, almost like the people in the movie are my children ;)

 A group of elderly people who are not related go to a hotel facility in India for old people. And the movie is about how they connect, interact and become friends, fall in love ,etc.

This movie has so many beautiful scenes, dialogues and is full of life and hope that you will be amazed. I certainly recommend it if you have free time and want to smile and feel relieved inside for a while.

But overall i am not going to give more than 6 /10 to this movie because it was not very special and i was not the right audience to it.

Carnage

A kid A  hit  kid B  in playground resulting in B loosing two of his teeth. Now A's parents are at B's house trying to apologize. the story takes place in only a room and maybe few minutes in the bathroom and hallway of the apartment. But this movie was so strong so amazing that i recommend it to everyone who like movies .

I am personally a big big fan of speech movies,Roman Polanski, Kate Winslet and Judie Foster , and having them all in a movie, just amazed me.


Parents of B are a very artistic, human rights , child development mom , and a dad that from the beginning we now he is trying to act civilized. Parents of A  are a chic , fashionable, easy going mom who is trying to be a good mom and a very very busy dad who is on the phone most of the time and from the beginning does not give a s..t and it is obvious that the mom dragged him there . Each of the parents are trying to have their son's side and look caring about the other kid, but at some point they break and show their very true nature.

I seriously don't want to spoil the movie because i am sure it's worth watching it.

So please please, do it this weekend. i am sure you will see good story, good act and you will thank me.

a 9/10 for this movie and up to now this movie is my favorite movie of 2012.

Celeste and Jesse forever





I have been wanting to watch this movie for so long because i love any movie about relationship and i love any movie that they show at a very specific theater close to my school , because no one goes there and it is always very empty and quite and cozy.

well this movie might show the story of the life of so many of us but then it is because the story is very simple natural and common. a couple stay together just because they have some details in common, like they understand each other's jokes, they have a good physical relationship, they are both intelligent and funny and not so much socially normal , but they also have some very much fundamental problems.

They decide to get a divorce but they just don't try to move on with their life, suddenly they guy knocks another girl up and he decided he wants to take the relationship seriously with the mother of his child.

The Ex wife starts this journey of trying to move on, she cries and gets drunk and obsess over exercising and her work.

At the end nothing special happens, they guy has his new life and the girl is trying to do the same thing and at the end it seems they finally both moved on ( good for them;D)


I love , love, loved the movie and going to give it an 8/10, just because it was so natural and real .but i don't recommend everyone to watch it , hehe
