The Guilt Trip (2012)

[boring and predictable]

The Guilt Trip (2012)
IMDB- 5.6
RottenTomatoes- 38%
RJG Ratings- 15

A mother and son take a cross country trip.

Starring- Barbra Streisand,Seth Rogen
Director- Anne Fletcher

Seth Rogen and Barbra bring nothing new onscreen.Both play a standard cliche role of a lonely mother and a busy son.Seth seems too tired throughout the movie and doesnt have any spark in him.Barbra on the other hand is a bit more better but due to the high predictability nature of the movie ,audience might not have the patience to listen to her character's whining.

The storys only selling factor is the combo of Seth-Barbra as son and mother taking a trip.Thats it.Theres nothing else interesting.Within 15-20min ,you can predict the entire movie.Comedy is poor.

Direction is dull.Anne Fletcher doesnt try to make anything new ,and follows a standard ,tried to death , formula.

Overall Guilt Trip ,is guilty of being too predictable with boring performances.

Acting- 1.5/5
Story- 1/5
Direction- 1.5/5

Dexter [Season 7] Review

Dexter [Season 7]

RJG Rating - 7.5/10

The story-

Debra finds out about Dexter's serial killings and tries to cure him of his addiction.LaGuerta gets suspicious about Travis Marshall's death ,and reopens the Bay Harbour Butcher case.Dexter gets involved with Hannah ,a suspected murderer.Dexter falls for Hannah but has her arrested.
Climax-Hannah escapes prison.LaGuerta confirms Dexter is the Bay Harbour Butcher.But is shot dead by Debra in the final scene.

Review-

This season was not too bad.But it still lacked the intensity of the initial seasons.The lack of a powerful villain too was a bit disappointing ,with Isaak (the mafia boss) ,being disposed off by the 3/4th of the season.This time ,the writers once again try to find a good pair for Dexter ,and they seem to have struck jackpot with the Hannah character.
The overall season was pretty good ,the writers have tried to give all the characters enough room, especially Quinn's subplot for nicely written.

Overall ,Dexter Season 7 was a good addition and the show is ripe for a finale.

How I Met Your Mother [Season 8] Review

How I Met Your Mother [Season 8]

RJG Rating - 4/10

The story-
Barney breaks up with Quinn ,Robin breaks up with Nick.Both pair up and Barney proposes to Robin.Marshall and Lily try to adjust with life after the arrival of the baby.Lily gets a job ,Marshall struggles with his.Ted as usual sits in depression and dates girls we all know wont be the 'mother'.
Climax-Barney-Robin marriage nears ,Marshall Lilly plan to move to Italy ,Ted is still conflicted as to whether Robin is his soulmate.And finally after 8 years ,the mother is shown.

Review-
This has been the WORST season for the show.The comedy was recycled and the entire objecctive was shifted.Barney's wedding has been the center of attraction for the past 2 YEARS! On a show called How i Met your Mother ,this is quite a big deviation.On top of that we had unnecessary distractions that we all know wont have any fruitful ending.The biggest headache was on how the show still tried to tease the audience on how Ted was still in love with Robin.
Barney's character no longer resembles the one we adored 8 years back.He has stripped down into a lame character.Marshall & Lilly continue to be consistent. Robin & Ted's characters have gone through some improvement.

Comedy is utter boring and lame.The drama ,whenever they do attempt is boring.The romance is missing.All of Ted's girls are shown to be great at first ,and when its time to write off their roles ,they are made into someone weird.Barney-Robin relation has been the worst pair up since they first tried it years back.Considering the writers showed Robin is the girl Barney would marry ,it tests the viewers patience when they have to sit through half the season seeing Barney Robin dating others.If you dont plan to have them together anytime soon ,please do not show such stuff years in advance.

Season 8 was a frustrating and a disappointing season for the show.It seems HIMYM has run its course.Cant wait for it to end!*

[PS:The finale season consisting of 24 episodes will take place in the course of 3 days before Barney Wedding.So we might have to sit through one more breakup of Barney-Robin.2more girls for Ted ,before Ted meets his wife NEXT YEAR IN MAY! HIMYM continues testing the patience of their audience]

Iron Man 3 (2013)

[Downey scores once again]

Iron Man 3 (2013)

IMDB- 7.7

RottenTomatoes- 78%

RJG Ratings- 75

Tony Stark finds his life scarred by memories, as a new villain wrecks havoc across the country.

Starring- Robert Downey Jr ,Guy Pearce, Gwyneth Paltrow,Ben Kingsley

Director- Shane Black

He has never disappointed with the role ,and he never does in this movie either.Im speaking about Robert Downey Jr ,who reprises his role of Tony Stark aka Ironman.Robert is at complete ease throughout IM3 ,and unlike the previous movies ,Robert gives a more deeper look into the character of Tony Stark.According to the promos ,youll notice that the villain is called Mandarin ,played by Ben Kingsley.As an actor ,Ben has done a great job ,but he never does get to complete the intense role.Ben's Mandarin will be a forgotten role in times to come.Back up villain ? Thats where Guy Pearce comes! Now he completely rocked the movie.Amazing performance by him ,and he is hands down the best villain from the Marvel Phase 1,2 series.Gwyneth Paltrow ,Rebecca Hall ,Don Cheadle ,Ty Simpkins (the kid) all do a good job.

The biggest flaw in my opinion is the story.Dont get me wrong ,its still a great story compared to previous Marvel movies ,but on closer observation its a hastily compiled story.At every point the story takes a convenient turn ,and stays predictable most of the time.The big 'twist' though hilarious ,completely ruins the intensity factor the movie's first half was building up.The thought process behind various scenes are missing.The end was rushed and completely goes against whatever the previous movies tried to tell.On the positive side ,theres plenty of Tony Stark.It was great to see him rely less on the suit for much of the movie.

Shane Black does a fine job handling the Iron Man franchise.He does a much much better job than Jon Favreau's Iron Man 2.He tries to give the movie a darker tone ,and the way he handled the Mandarin in the first half was excellent.But by the second half he lets the comic side in him let loose ,as he dumps the intensity for humour.The climax was really poor ,since it raised more questions than answers.The movie isnt too long ,and thus a rushed ending is questionable.Shane wraps up everything he unleashed in the course of a couple of minutes.

The action scenes were great.The Malibu House Attack ,Backup Suit Army Fight were awesome.The visual effects on the suit were stepped up a notch with the Mark42 suit assembling piece by piece on Tony's command.

Overall IM3 ,is a great addition to the Marvel series ,but it doesnt fulfill its potential to have been great.Die hard fans wont be disappointed!

Acting- 4/5

Trailer Update

Elysium 

Wow!! We have an excellent trailer over here! And that too for Elysium.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIBtePb-dGY

Elysium is the much anticipated movie from the director of District 9.Neill Blomkamp had made a powerful impact in modern sci-fi movies with his 2009 movie ,Districy 9.It took a very difficult topic and mixed it with a very non-typical alien story.With a small budget Neil had wowed critics and viewers alike with his movie. Even with such amounts of success Neill took his time to create another sci-fi meets realistic topics with Elysium. Cant wait for this movie!!

[The concept looks a little bit like this months,Tom Cruise starrer ,Oblivion.But in my opinion ,Elysium looks way better]

Hunger Games Catching Fire

Only God Forgives (read description below ,before you just skip it)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqAeVosG4zI

For those of you who dont know ,Only God Forgives is the new movie which brings back the director-actor duo of Ryan Gosling & Nicolas Winding ,who made a huge impact with their 2012 movie ,Drive.
Watching the trailer it gives me a familiar sense of Drive along with a strong feeling of some classic Korean flicks.
The synopsis is as follows -
Julian ,the owner of a Thai Boxing club (which is actually a cover up for a drug business) ,is sent by his mother to avenge his brother's murder.
The movie is set for release on July 9 2013 ,and is one of my 46 anticipated movies of 2013!(http://bit.ly/2013BIGGIESrjg)


The World's END 
http://video.uk.msn.com/watch/video/the-world-s-end-exclusive-trailer/2t5faj5e
Edgar Wright brings back the guys for his trilogy ender of popular genres remixed! SHaun of the Dead was a zombie parody ,while Hot Fuzz was a cop parody..so whats World End? watch the trailer to figure it out!
(i hope noone has trouble watching msn ,ill update with a youtube link when its available)

Gravity
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufsrgE0BYf0
Starring George Clooney & Sandra Bullock ,the movie is about two astronauts lost in space....slowly floating around.
Directed by Alfonso Cuaron (Children of Men and Harry Potter 3) ,i will say that i have no interest in these 3 people.The trailer looks okay ,but we are most likely going to see some long winded drama.
What you say? Is Gravity interesting ?

Man OF Steel !!! Its a bit long ,but its worth It !!!Check it out NOW!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6DJcgm3wNY
ITS epic!!!! Amazing soundtrack from Hans in the background! We might have a successor to Nolan's Batman after all!

IronMan keeps Gatsby at bay

IronMan keeps Gatsby at bay

[May10-12]

#1-It was no surprise that IronMan 3 dominated on its second week at the box office.The superhero movie made $72million which is a 60% drop from its debut.But overall the movie is still flying very high!With $664million from overseas , Iron Man 3 is now at a  gross total of $949 million ,putting it in #21 in the highest grossing movie lists of all time.The movie will easily make it to the 1Billion club by this week.

#2-The Great Gatsby opened with $51million ,which was a bit under expectations ,but certainly a modest collection.Starring a powerful cast which includes the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio & Carey Mulligan ,this romantic drama is based on the famous novel of the same name written by Scott Fitzgerald.

But as i previously analyzed ,Gatsby couldnt score over the critics.The movie has been getting below average reviews ,and is currently rated at 47%.The critics praised Leonardo's performance and the visual splendor of the movie ,but what was missing was the soul ,which left the movie quite empty in its luxurious outer covering.

#3-Pain & Gain scrapped at the leftovers of the powerful openers ,as it made a meager $5million.The movie has so far has made an unimpressive $41million.

#4-Tyler Perry Presents Peeples opened 4th with just $4.8million.This newcomer had no hope in the first place opening against Gatsby ,and being a movie that has "Tyler Perry" stamped on it ,is assurance of crappyness.The movie was dismissed by the critics ,calling it a predictable and boring ,scoring just 38%.

#5-Baseball drama ,42 ,continued to be a sleeper hit ,as it made $4.6million on its 5th week.The movie has already made $84million from the domestic market itself.

2013 Top 5

#5-A Good Day to Die Hard -$303million

#4-G.I. Joe: Retaliation -$356million

#3-Oz The Great and Powerful -$487million

#2-The Croods -$533million

#1-Iron Man 3 -$949million

At the Top 5 ,IronMan3 is easily ruling the year with a commanding $949million.The only movie thats even powerful enough to take that down ,in my opinion is Hobbit Part 2 ,that too in December.Till then or maybe even after that ,IronMan 3 will be king of box office 2013!

Surprisingly Croods overtook Oz ,for the number 2 spot!

This week we have another potential blockbuster! Star Trek Into Darkness ,which is clearly one of the movies in my MUST SEE LIST!

First my analysis from earlier this year:

story- the crew of the Enterprise face an enemy that has risen from their own organization.

+ Sequel to the critical & blockbuster 2009 reboot ,Star Trek will cater to all sci-fi fans.Director Abrams is a huge favorite among scifi lovers,and he wont be likely to disappoint.

- Too much hype is bad too.If it fails to match upto the first part,it will be criticized heavily by the audience.

The movie has collected $31million from the overseas market and has a strong initial rating of 89%.The critics say its an amazing movie,especially Benedict's performance.Although it doesnt quite match up to its predecessor.
