Fire In Babylon (2010)


Hits: Glory and might of the Windies in their prime. Thought and events well captured. True account, documentary style film making, yet entertaining.

Misses: Music jigs in between don't gel well with the movie, seem stuffed.

Overall: Not just a cricket movie. More about the spirit, never-say-die attitude and desperation for winning. Very good.

Rating: 3.5/5

Zero Dark Thirty (2012)


Hits: Jessica Chastain is brilliant. Great direction and background score. Story: we all know why that is epic!

Misses: None what-so-ever. First 20 minutes look more like a documentary. I had no problems with that.

Overall: Awesome stuff. Gripping, wonderful performances from the lead cast. However, You won't like it much if you're a Twilight fan :)

Rating: 4/5

Argo (2012)


Hits: Well Directed, Good Acting, Fast Paced.

Misses: Ignores few facts in the name of artistic liberty. But that's ok!

Overall: Wonderful movie. Edge-of-the-seat Climax. Ben Affleck's getting better as a director with each movie. Go for it!
