MOVIE REVIEW: THE DARK KNIGHT RISES

The End of an Era is upon us. Has Christopher Nolan given a fitting
conclusion to this Epic Trilogy..? Find out below...


WHAT ITS ABOUT: In the DC universe, its been 8 years since the events
of The Dark Knight. Its peace time in Gotham city or so it seems.
Bane, a former member of the League of Shadows shows up to achieve the
same goals Ra's Al Ghul tried to achieve, the destruction of Gotham.
He calls himself Gotham's reckoning and wears a mask that supply him
with pain-killers to numb the immense pain that runs through his body.


On the other hand Bruce Wayne(Christian Bale) has shut himself off
from the world due to severe injuries that he has suffered during his
Escapades as Batman. He calls himself "Retired" but eventually he will
have to don the Dark Knight garb again.! Plus there is a new Superhero in
town, Anne Hathaway enters the fray as Catwoman.! Will our favorite
Caped Crusader be able save Gotham in time or will the Maniacal
Monster Bane prevail ? Im not spoiling that, you have to watch the movie
to find out.


WHAT'S GOOD: There is only One way Chris Nolan does it...Grand..! The
story is Brilliant and Riveting. Every moment makes you wonder what
will happen next. There are no slow or boring moments. The action just
keeps on coming. Dialogues are exceptional. You get goose-bumps when
Anne Hathaway(Selina Kyle/Catwoman) says "There's a Storm Coming, Mr.
Wayne" and your heart misses a beat when Tom Hardy(Bane) says "When
Gotham is in Ashes, you have my Permission to Die". Speaking of Tom
Hardy, I must say he is the Highlight of TDKR. With slow, Articulate
dialogue delivery, intimidating Body language and Immense screen
presence, Bane is one Scary dude.! All these qualities make him the
perfect villain.


Christian Bale(Bruce Wayne/Batman) gives his Best
performance to date. Anne Hathaway is 'decent' as the Sly Seductress.
Liam Neeson makes an appearance and is as cool as ever. There is never
a dull moment in the movie. I have to applaud Hans Zimmer for the
Amazing soundtrack for TDKR. It plays throughout the movies and suits
the slick storyline. As for the popular debate of Avengers Vs. Dark
Knight, I'd say TDKR has the edge. I'd like to think that the success of TDKR was marred by the very unfortunate Colorado Shooting.


WHATS BAD: Honestly, I couldnt find anything bad about this movie.


VERDICT: TDKR is a Phenomenal conclusion to Chris Nolan's Epic Batman
Saga. Thank you Mr. Nolan for reminding us why we love Superheroes.
The Legend Ends, An Era Ends..!

FIRST LOOK OF AMITABH BACHCHAN IN HIS FIRST HOLLYWOOD MOVIE-THE GREAT GATSBY

In India, Amitabh Bachchan considered to be no less than a God. He is
an Actor, Producer, Singer, Television game show Host and
Philanthropist. Bachchan has been working in the Indian Film industry
for more than 4 decades. He is known as the Greatest actor on Earth
but never has he been seen in a foreign large-scale film, Until now...


The trailer for Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby" was released
yesterday it shows among others Amitabh Bachchan's Hollywood Avatar.
The movie is based on the Novel of the same name.
The novel "The Great Gatsby" was written by F. Scott Fitzgerald in
1923. It describes the year of 1922.


Onto the movie now, Nick Carraway(Tobey Maguire) is a bonds salesman
who is also a Yale graduate and has just returned after serving in the
First World War. He comes to live in Long Island where he meets James
Gatsby(Leonardo dicaprio). Gatsby is a wealthy businessman who is
known for throwing Lavish parties for distinguished guests. Daisy
Buchanan(Carey Mulligan) is the cousin of Nick and wife of Tom
Buchanan(Joel Edgerton). Myrtle Wilson(Isla Fisher) is the Mistress of
Tom Buchanan. Additionally, the Beautiful Gemma Ward also makes an
appearance.


Amitabh Bachchan plays Meyer Wolfsheim a Wealthy guest of Gatsby's who
is known for fixing the 1919 World Series Baseball Championship.


Its no surprise that a talented actor like Bachchan has broken into
the International scene before the so called Kings of Bollywood, The 3
Khans who solely rely on their ability to flirt rather than Act to
Make the movie a Success. We are proud of Big B who will be playing
with the Big boys now. Check out the trailer below.

MOVIE REVIEW: JOHN CARTER

Welcome to an all new edition of Outspoken Reviews. I bring to you the review of the new Science-fiction, Action-Adventure John Carter 3D.

WHAT ITS ABOUT:- The story of the movie is based on the 'Barsoom' series of novels by Sir Edgar Rice burroughs. these novels were published in 1912 to 1943. So this movie shows the first glimpses of aliens through the eyes of human imagination. The story follows John Carter(Taylor Kitsch), a former soldier who is transported to Mars. There he meets barbaric green creatures who want to imprison him. He also finds creatures that bear a striking resemblance to humans. He realises that he has some hidden talents which only humans possesss on planet Mars. Two clans fight for survival as water on the planet is scarce. The Princess(Lynn Collins) of one of the clans is being forced to marry the barbaric leader of the other clan in order signify the submission of their clan and to end the war. And how can any red blooded Earthling hero resist saving the Damsel in distress ??

WHATS GOOD:- The action is well co-ordinated. The storyline is captivating and entertaining. The movie does not drag even through emotional scenes. Taylor kitsch has performed very well and is quite believable as a hero. The Best thing about this movie is its Climax. The end is very logical and makes audience go(and I quote) "OOOOOHHHH..!".

WHATS BAD:-First of all the movie has to fight the Stigma of being just another Humans Vs. Aliens movie. It was successful in doing that in my view but many others may not think so. The aliens are Green and lanky which means they are just the same old type of aliens that we have seen a million times. But we have to keep in mind that this is the 1912 perception of aliens which might be the first perception of the creatures. The 3d effects are good but not Mind-Blowing.

VERDICT:- John Carter is an Action-Adventure film and it definitely delivers the Adventure. Watch it.!

NEW AMAZING SPIDERMAN TRAILER

Everybody's favorite Web-Slinging Superhero is back.! After 5 years of waiting, we finally get a Spiderman movie.

This one is a reboot of the original Spiderman movies. To a lot of fans chagrin the old cast is completely replaced, even the Director.!

The Amazing Spiderman stars Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker/Spiderman, Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy, Rhys Ifans as Dr. Curt Connors/The Lizard and (I cant believe Im saying this) Our own IRRFAN KHAN as Dr. Ratha/Goblin.

This movie is being promoted as "The Untold Story" because it focuses on the disappearance of Peter Parker's parents and not his Uncle's death as in the other movies. Peter is a loner in highschool who has a crush on Gwen Stacy and is struggling with life without parents. He finally finds some clues which lead him to Dr. Connors(Efans). It turns out that Connors was the partner of Peter's father and knows the answers Peter seeks. One thing that I noticed was that the Spiderman character played in this movie seems more similar to the original character in the comic books. The original character was a wise cracking genius. Those one-liners were missing in the character portrayed by Tobey Macguire.

The Trailer has the Most Stunning visuals Ive ever seen. Check it out below.
