4 New Releases Battle for top spot.TDKR #7 in the domestic & worldwide lists.



#1 & #2 -Jake Gyllenhaal starrer, End Of Watch ,tied with Jennifer Lawrence starrer ,House at the End of the Road ,with both earning $13million.
End of Watch is a cop-drama-thriller ,written & directed by Training Day writer ,David Ayer.Even though its a low budget movie ($7million) ,the opening collection is below average for a movie of its sort.EOW has been getting good reviews praising its lead actors ,Jake Gyllenhaal & Micheal Pena.The movie is currently rated at 85%.
House at the End of the Road ,like EOW is a low budget movie ($10million) but still its debut is below expectations.But the horror movie has been getting very poor reviews ,with many complaining its a very predictable movie with not much thrills nor horror.The movie is rated 13%.

#3-
Coming very close to the top spot was ,Trouble with the Curve ,making $12.7million.The baseball themed movie , marks the return of Clint Eastwood to an acting role (2009's Gran Torino was his previous starring role).The movie also has Amy Adams & Justin Timberlake.Just like the top 2 movies ,TWTC too has a below average debut.The movie has been getting average reviews ,with many saying Clint Eastwood & Amy Adams' performances are the highlights of this predictable story.The movie is currently rated at 52%.

#4
-Finding Nemo 3D ,made to #4 with $9.4million.This makes Finding Nemo the lowest grossing movie in the recent set of 3D converted animated movies.

#5
-Resident Evil Retribution crashed from its top spot last week ,earning just $6.7million this week.Such a steep fall can be credited to the movies poor reviews and general lack of interest from the audience for the Resident series.The movie has made $33million domestically ,but has already grossed thrice its domestic gross overseas ,$103million ,bringing its worldwide total to $136million.

The 4th new release of the week ,Dredd , bombed at the box office ,making just $6.3million,coming at #6.The $50million movie is set to be a big disappointment.The reviews for Dredd has been highly positive .Many praised its violence & special effects and has a rating of 77%.
The critically praised movie,The Master made $5million in its 2nd week.The movie is slowly expanding to more theaters each week.Praised for its acting,direction and story ,the movie has a rating of 86%.

On its 10th week ,TDKR made $1.2million.So far it has made $$443million domestically ,ranking it at #7 in the domestic charts ,overtaking Shrek 2.The next target,for TDKR in the domestic list is Star Wars ,$460million.But it seems TDKR wont be rising on the domestic charts any more.
With $623million collection overseas,TDKR has made $1.066billion worldwide.This puts it #7 in the all time lists ,overtaking PiratesOTC 2.The next target for TDKR is Lord Of The Rings3 ,$1.119billion.Again,this seems to be another long shot for TDKR.

This week, we have 4 more interesting movies.Looper,Hotel Transylvania,Perfect Pitch & Wont Back Down.
My recommendation for the week is Looper.The action thriller has been getting rave reviews.Its rated currently at 92%.The mind bending tale stars Joseph Gordon & Bruce Willis.
Hotel Transylvania is an animated movie ,starring Adam Sandler.the movie failed to impress critics and will be more of a kids attraction.
Perfect Pitch stars Anna Kendrick and is about a college singing competition.
Wont Back Down stars 2 top actresses ,Maggie Gyllenhaal & Viola Davis and is about two mothers raising the standards of education at their local school.

Superbad (2007)


[one of the best tales of growing up]

Superbad (2007)
IMDB- 7.7
Rottentomatoes- 88%
RJG Rating- 95

Seth & Evan ,best friends since childhood ,get a chance to have a great party before they move to separate colleges.

Starring- Jonah Hill,Micheal Cera
Director- Greg Mottola

Superbad is a movie about friendship and high school life.Just as its name ,its super bad (in a positive aspect) in terms of its jokes and situations.

All the actors have done a great job.They all hold a particular charm and take forward the movie without lose of pace.Micheal Cera & Jonah Hill are the lead actors,and they do an excellent job.Christoph Mintz as Fogell/McLovin ,Seth Rogen & Jon Hader as the two cops too give amazing supporting roles.

The story of Superbad takes place within a day,but its packed with humour and draws a neat picture of friendship.Coming from Judd Apatow ,you can be sure its not going to be a family movie.The jokes are the filthy types but they are all nicely blended into the plot.

Greg Mottola's direction is superb.The movie runs in a nice even pace and all the jokes are hilarious.It isnt over the top and lets the story and performances take the center stage.The theme of friendship tackled in Superbad might not be new ,but its the way its handled that makes the movie memorable.Even years later ,Superbad has set a standard for movies of this genre.

Overall,Superbad might not be for everyone ,but its a must watch movie.

Acting- 4.5/5
Story- 5/5
Direction- 4.5/5
Comedy- 4.5/5
Drama- 4/5

The Pirates! Band of Misfits (2012)


[a lovable little movie]

The Pirates! Band of Misfits (2012)
IMDB- 6.8
Rottentomatoes- 86%
RJG Rating- 80

Captain Pirate sets out for an adventure in search of treasure that could fetch him his life long wish.

Starring- Hugh Grant,Martin Freeman,David Tennant
Director- Peter Lord

Pirates is a claymation movie created by the makers of the hit Wallace & Gromit.

Animation is excellent and is the perfect choice for the movie.But it could have set up on a larger scale for such an adventurous movie.The animation also felt a bit rough and not as smooth as expected.

The story is what can usually be expected from a claymation movie.Its a bit weird but manages to deliver loads of fun.The story wasnt as clever or outstanding but it was funny.The main highlight were the brilliant set of characters.The story has its own set of twists and turns that make PiratesBOM an enjoyable movie.

Peter Lord, has done a great job in building up this movie.Its pace is even and the movie doesnt falter much.The movie is fun and adventurous from start to finish.

Overall ,Pirates is be a welcome change from the usual type of animated movies released this year.And thanks to its great characters its great fun.

Animation- 4/5
Story- 4/5
Direction- 4/5
Action- 4/5
Comedy- 4/5
