Grease–Pirates of the Caribbean

I’ve always wondered ” How will this movie be ?”. I’ve only seen few musicals, I can even name them Seven Brides for seven brothers, Oh! Brother, Where art thou?. That’s it I guess and these two films remained in my top 15 or 20 for a very long time. So I decided to buy Grease. At first I thought it wouldn’t be that good, but except for John Travolta’s gay walk( well I know it was required in the film), I totally enjoyed it. Especially all the songs and the dances. Very good choreography. Makes you think how crazy the 70s were. All that Gel and small clicks.

Pirates of the Caribbean : At World’s End

Well, I totally enjoyed the film unlike the others who came along with me to see the film. It was 3 hrs long and I really didn’t mind. Maybe because I am a Pirates of the Caribbean fan. It was fun and I guess the predicton I did in the post remains the same ***3/4. Amazing cast. Witty Jack Sparrow…was good as usual, Keith Richards was amusing. Geoffry Rush back as Barbosa was fun too. Chow Yun Fat was k.

Crazy ol’ me will go for Oceans 13 coming week. damn it really is the 3-quels year. Four consecutive weekends Spidey, Shrek, Pirates and then the Oceans.

3-quels

Spideman III

Ok…Spiderman III wasn’t as good as the second part, but that did not mean that this is a bad movie. It had awesome graphics, cool looking villans, Sandman and Venom. I liked the Green Goblin character unlike Spiderman I, the costume of the Green Goblin was more than satisfactory.

I’d give this film a *** 1/2

Shrek the Third

Shrek the third is fun, but not that much as the previous two movies. It has some of the good laugh, like the death of the Frog King and some of the sarcastic funny moments when Shrek encounters Arthur and Merlin. Shrek the third was just satisfactory, but shrek is supposed to satisfactory.

I’d give this one ***

Tomorrow I will see Pirates of the Carribean: At World’s End. I don’t have my hopes high, but Cap’n Jack Sparrow will be good and Barbosa is back. I see no reason why it let me down.

Prediction: ***3/4

But most of all I think Oceans 13 is gonna rock. Atleast by the trailer I think so.

Not that I don’t like it, but this was totally not what I expected.

After a look at the fake picture which was done with the help of Adobe probably, I expected a cool, dignified, a-wide-grin-on-the-face ,probably Armani suited Joker. This one blew my mind off……but I think it’ll be ok. With only a piece of jute, the Scarecrow’s costume turned out to be the coolest in the previous movie.Therefore I have faith .

Now I can’t waith to find out how this movie is gonna be.

300

300-the-movie.jpgIt was at October 17th,2006, I read this book. I wanted to read it because then it was going to be made into a movie.

Later the movie released at the U.S and it was to come to India the next week. I couldn’t wait to see how this comic book is made into a movie.

Last Saturday I went in the morning to see this movie and yeah….It was not bad, it was good. It stayed faithful to the comic, except for some additional parts on showing how strong at heart the Spartan women are through the Queen., the council meet and a traitor in Sparta. Still there is a slight difference on how Frank Miller depicted than the Spartans than how Zach Snyder show the Spartans in the movie. Or maybe there was no difference, maybe it was just me.

The movie was made well, the digital backlot tecnique (like SinCity)300_comparison.JPG came out really well. The fight sequences were awesome and found out after that battle scenes+rock music=nice.Even though it was rated ‘R’ because of violence, I didn’t find the movie gory at all. If it really is , I need a to see a doctor I believe. I found Apocalypto and Passion of the Christ more bloody and shocking.
