30 Rock [7x01]


30 Rock [7x01] The Beginning of the End
TV.com - 8
RJG Rating- 8
Jack greenlits various terrible shows ,while Jenna traps Liz to be her bridesmaid.

30 Rock made a good debut with its subtle humour and excellent performances.While the episode wasnt one of the bests ,it certainly was the best debut among the new seasons of TV shows .

Arrow [1x01]


Arrow [1x01] Pilot
TV.com - 8.5
RJG Rating- 7

Oliver Queen is rescued from an island after being deserted on it for 5 years.

This new tv series is based on DC comic's superhero ,Green Arrow.I found the episode good for most parts of it,but it was not without its faults.Stephen Amell as Oliver , is not a great actor.Many scenes felt messed up due to his below par acting.The episode also felt a bit cliched too especially the final 15min.But on the positive side ,its not a bad start for Arrow ,and i hope the new episodes are better.

Modern Family [4x01]



Modern Family [4x01] Bringing Up Baby
TV.com - 5.7
RJG Rating- 6.5

Jay celebrates his birthday with his old friends & Phil.Meanwhile Gloria doesnt know how to break the news about the baby.
Modern family's season debut was average.Season 3 ended on a somewhat emotional manner ,and its side effects still linger over the season debut.The start was a bit rough but the episode did have some jokes at hand.Hopefully it will get better.

Walking Dead [3x02]


Walking Dead [3x02] Sick
TV.com - 8.5
RJG Rating- 8

Rick and his group meet some of the resident prisoners at the Jail.

The show has finally picked up speed!Its actually much much more brutal than the first or second season.Even though Lori & Carl are still nagging and overbearing ,they are given as less time and possible.The main highlight of the episode was definitely Rick.After 2 seasons of walking timidly among the zombies ,his character has grown up wonderfully .The unpredictability of the situations give the show a nice edge.Hope the show keeps the momentum up.

The Cabin in the Woods (2012)


[just another teenage horror flick ? Nope]

The Cabin in the Woods (2012)
IMDB- 7.3
Rottentomatoes- 91%
RJG Rating- 95

5 teenagers go to a cabin belonging to a friend in a remote forest ,not knowing a group of people have been lying in wait for them.

Starring - Kristen Connolly,Chris Hemsworth,Anna Hutchison,Fran Kranz
Director - Drew Goddard

Being a teenage horror flick ,you cant really expect much good performances ,but the cast of Cabin ITW are really awesome.Each and everyone are likeable and this makes the whole experience of watching the movie more engaging.No one overshadows the other ,but i really liked Fran Kranz,who played the stoner Marty.

Story,its really awesome.While the movie might seem so obvious when watching its trailer or a synopsis ,you really have no idea where the story is leading you into.Its the type that makes you keep wondering 'whats going on' for majority of the movie ,and judging from the way it unfolds ,its just top notch writing.The story brings new life into this genre of horror/slasher movies.You might think you know ,but you dont.
Another plus point are the well developed characters.Although they play out to be cliched characters from horror movies ,they manage to connect with the audience.

Drew Goddard ,does an amazing job.Blending comedy into a horror movie is a tough task ,which Drew has successfully accomplished.On top of that ,the movie is a fresh new concept that never dulls at any moment.The pace of the movie is even,and considering the amount & extend of story thats been put in ,the movie never feels stretched.

Overall,dont keep this movie aside just because you think its just another slasher/cliched horror movie ,because its certainly not.Its a decent blend of horror-comedy with an excellent story.Must Watch!
