Review Of Lilo & Stitch!

 

Look -> Every Nation portrays and want their own Intelligence Organization to be Patriotic. And this is also absolutely understandable that, after the SNOWDEN’s Saga, and what CIA back then said about Snowden that he did damage & slandered the reputation of Intelligence; then, thus, it seems, vide Media, some damage control is being done in the recent days.  

You watch Ghosted, Fubar, The Amateur, Black Bag etc. or recently, Lilo & Stitch! As it has been told at the end that one can trust Intelligence and they would keep the Secret! In Ghosted also, a beautiful agent would always protect Her Love! In Fubar also, how the Intelligence Agency’s employees also struggle to pay Hospital Bills, and living no different life; Or, maybe just alike how B’Wood portrays R&AW in Indian movies, or, how in the Israeli series Fauda/Tehran, the Intelligence or Mossad Guys counter Terrorists’ (within or cross-border) whilst living a Normal life; thus, H’Wood also kind of rekindling Intelligence vide their movies and series! Now, likes of SNOWDEN would definitely ask, why? But again, you can’t question because it’s a movie industry originating from ‘A Nation,’ and NOT from ‘United Nations’!

And further, if you read my previous blogs, I only questioned back then the role of ‘FVEY’ in unison for protecting K-Terrorism for their Own Benefit by using breeding grounds of Canada; but ne’er questioned any individual intelligence agency. Ne’er! Because again, that’s their nation, irrespective of ethical conduct or not!

Now, coming back to the Review of Lilo & Stitch, as in this also, it has been shown that and as what I’ve explained in the above section.

Furthermore, in the name of Aloha or Ohana, or as what Vin Diesel keep saying, Family; the local family welfare authority representative viz. Kekoa asked Nani, who herself is young, to Pay all her bills to keep the custody of Lilo, and further Tutu, instead of offering to take care of Lilo in the beginning only; waited the whole Alien Saga to happen, to offer in the end to Nani that now, in the name of OHANA, we’ll take care of Lilo! C’mon!

Knowing for the fact that any single young Girl like Nani who has the responsibility of Her young Sister Lilo, would be Exploited by people surrounding them, from Suga Daddies, to, New/Old Money Men, to, Political Leaderships! Correct? Correct? Means, I hope the Writers wanted to send some message to the kids about Ohana! YET, there were gaps in the same!

Thus, if the foundation of a movie is Action; there should be action, like in John Wick! Similarly, if the foundation of any flick is OHANA, then there should’ve been OHANA explained! Else, the script loses the base!

But again, all said and done, it was indeed a decent watch on a weekend, despite its foundational flaws!

Review Of Notting Hill

 

C’mon! Means, even I didn’t know that I would be writing reviews on my blog portal of most of the flicks I watched in my School days, and that too after 26 years. C’mon!

And from the song-> She (one of the soundtracks of the flick)

……She may be the reason I survive
why wherefore I'm alive
one I'll care for through rough & ready years
Me, I'll take her laughter & her tears
& make them all my souvenirs…….

One must be thinking I was movieholic. Nope! Yet, a good movie is after all a good piece of Artwork! Correct? So, the way we go to, from museums to bookstores, I used to sometimes get those big movie cassettes, and then CDs, to watch, & sometimes on my computer; again, only a good piece of artwork! Like a good Trance mix on my CD player back then.

Notting Hill was one of them. And today, I watched it again! There was a spark that time even in the Romantic genre. Take example of Vanilla Sky, which I’ve already reviewed. Then Sweet November. The real definition of Freshness! And such Freshness I only saw in the flick Taal in B’Wood! And as I always say, what you call a boutique or custom made or handcrafted one of kind piece; so was with these few artworks which can’t be recreated. A sincere love story.

And then there’s was Ronan Keating’s Nothing At All. BTW, in that period only, another song Life Is A Rollarcoaster (one of my favourite song) also came; thus, one after another gems were coming out.

Coming back to the Review. I don’t write the scripts. Not interested! You just watch the conversations and expressions of/between Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts, and that’s more than enough, with a great background score! Simple! What else do you need?

All said and done, of course, a gem and one of a kind boutique handcrafted piece! 😊

Review Of Mission Impossible Series

 

Before even watching the final reckoning, let me write one truth. One Can’t Replicate Mission Impossible – 2 (‘00), no matter how many more series franchise is infused in the Theatres. Just alike one can’t replicate The Matrix (‘99), no matter how many more subsequent parts being produced. Just alike one can’t replicate Terminator – 2, OR, Rambo – First Blood, OR, GoldenEye, OR, LOTR – Fellowship of the Ring, OR, Hobbits - Desolation Of the Smaug, OR, Gravity, OR, Uplifting Trance Genre of Late 90s & Early 00 Era; and the List goes on & on & on.

Look-> Even back then in My School days, I tried to find a Single Flaw in Mission Impossible – 2, and honestly, I couldn’t find any! Just look at its Music Composition, Designer Costumes, Casting, Actions, Direction by John Woo (One Of My Favourite Director) -> you name just one flaw in the Mission Impossible – 2. It was perfect, alike The Matrix. And the genre of such movies one can’t replicate, even the Same Cast!

Thus, another Mission Impossible is now playing in the theatres, and so far, albeit I haven’t watched it, maybe would watch today or tomorrow, YET, I would stick to the M.I. -  2 only, for being the best of the Franchise been produced So Far.

That’s why there’s something called as a boutique or handmade/handcrafted piece. Why? It would be one of a kind. Wherein the subsequent or several parts of any franchise are Factory made products, and therein the real Problem starts.

Think About it. Am I Wrong? 😊
