The Intern !!!

The Intern -what if you are a 70 year old retired ,and then you don’t expect the retirement ,to be the way you thought it would be .And then suddenly you want to go and work again .And so this 70 year old Robert di Nero goes and Works in a new startup as an intern ,through a new senior citizen programme .The movie is full of moments of laughter and understanding how a business needs time to grow and how much time is consumed when we only work.
A good choice for Sunday afternoon show ,after being in two minds ,since our first choice “Everest ” was houseful and the “Intern ” made our Sunday .
The star cast was another thumbs up for the film.Robert di Nero timely expression ,made the movie more exciting to watch ,AnnE Hathaway the main lead on who the movie revolves around too did a good job in the emotional scenes .
The story too of how 70 year old’s ,being traditional have their calculators,suitcase, the simple mobile phones showed how these objects have become classical forgettable tools ,in the modern world .
Scenes ,where the actor’s want be part of the new generation ,being on the social networking sites also showed ,if we can just tell them how to use the basic features they can be good learners.

A great movie ,with a simple story.
The intern.

Manjhi -The mountain man !!

  
Manjhi the mountain man ,a true story about dasharth manjhi who for 22 years Alone broke a huge 360 ft long .30ft wide and 25ft high mountain.with a hammer and chisel A poor labourer in Gehalur whose sole mission in life was to break the mountain and make a path for easy access by making a road ,the movie tells us the story and journey of this man and how whatever obstacles came his way ,he stuck to his mission .He also had doubts about his mission but always when he thought of giving up ,motivation and his love kept him to complete his task .With just a hammer and axe he continued his mission until one day finally 4 years after his death in 2007 ,in 2011 the road was finally made .This story had a lot of moral to learn from ,the attitude of don’t leave everything on God and do something yourself and love can make people do wonders

The movie had manjhi played by Nawazuddin Siddiqui and his wife phaliguni by Radhika Apte .The cast was quite right .Acting by Siddiqui was enjoyable.His versatility makes him suit any role he is offered and the director Ketan Mehta who has a keen interest in biographical movies on unsung Hero’s too has done a good job by sharing this story and inspiring us not to loose hope .

Please watch this movie ,before its off the theatres .

The Girl on the train -Personal book review 


“The girl on the train “by Paula Hawkins is , what S J Watson terms as ‘gripping ,enthralling -A top notch thriller and a compulsive read ,no wonder dream works is in talks to adapt the book into a movie .

The sub head -You don’t know her .But she knows you .You immediately want to grab the book to know the story .The story about Rachel who catches the same commuter train every Morning.She know it will wait at the same signal each time ,overlooking a row of back gardens .She even started to feel like she knows the people who live in one of the houses .Jess Jason she calls them the characters on who the story revolves .Their life according to her is perfect.

And then one day she sees something shocking .Its only a minute until the train moves on .But it’s enough .

Now everything has changed .Now Rachel has a chance to become a part of their lives she’s only watched from far

Now they’ll see : her much more than just the girl on the train ….

The author Paula Hawkins who has worked as a journalist for fifteen years before turning her hand to fiction ,uses her journalism experience to continue the story and keep the interest of readers with some twist and turns ,there are moments you believe he might have done it ,no she has done it this continues till you haven’t read the complete story .the dairy format and narration format of giving each character his thought of the story to move forward is very interesting way of writing the book and to keep the interest going ,what the other characters think at that moment .

Grab and read the book ,before everybody has read it .

Drishyam -Movie review !!

Dhrisyam ,is a remake of a Malayalam film with the same title .But the Bollywood movie has Ajay Devgan ,Tabu and Rajat kapoor as known faces .The film is about how Ajay Devgan and his family .How they play up with the system of Indian police force ,by making it so believable and convencing for the police that they weren’t part of anything and we’re completely clueless for the next 100minutes which keeps the audiences on its toes ,till the very end And just when you believe the family will be caught in its act and then …there is a twist ,the movie begins slowly ,but after interval catches on .The background music creates the tension at the right moments .At some point you believe the movie could be cut short a little bit .But overall it is a must watch ,the actor couldn’t get better .Ajay Devgn role of being on the other end ,helped him in being the hero .and he knew how to shake the system .The director Nishikant Kamat has done a job ,entertaining the audiences with a thrilling story .

You could enjoy the movie better if you would have better audience siting next to you and not playing it aloud on what they thought happens .

Last but not the least the prominence of being a failure academically ,by not even completing the 4th grade ,just told us how much people underestimate people .

To conclude the complete post ,the movie also spoke about how visual images can be  used not only to learn the tricks & tips ,but a medium to learn a lot about everything .
