For the first time in my life I watched movie on its releasing date. Well, till now didnt have any movie which creates go-crazy-and-watch-on-first-day kind of craze.

But my hopes werent fulfilled!! I dont know, why Sequels loose their lusture!!! I loved Spiderman and even Spiderman 2 which lived upto standards. But this ones a little bit of boring and not satisfactory as previous ones. But the action sequences and stunning graphics will satisfy you a bit.

Regarding action sequences this movie has many of them to satisfy you!! Two action scenes with New Goblin or Harris played by James Franco and with Sandman twice and once with venom.

The movie starts with media and newspaper praising Spiderman as superhero..Everything including his personal relationship with Mary Jane(kristen Durnst) going perfect except Harris who still believes that Peter Parker/Spiderman is the one who killed his father.

So difference between Harry and Peter Parker, Mary Jane and Peter Parker, The new Spiderman photographer Eddie Brock and Peter Parker and fight between Sandman and Spiderman…Phew.. The story seems to be a mixture of many small stories taken parallely which makes you to loose track of the movie in the middle. But later each story converge into a single ending.

The thing which I liked in this movie is the Tobey Maguire’s new look when he is attacked from that alien thing..A new hairstyle, a new cruel kind of attitude unlike Peter Parker who is friendly.. He has successfully portrayed himself in Mr.BAD GUY character.

Recently I watched 300 - The movie starring Gerard Butler and is directed by Zack Snyder.

The main attraction of this film is the usage of computer graphics.. Almost all scenes are shot with blue screen in background and then Computer Graphics effects are added to the movie. The war scenes are immersive and it is better if you watch on a Dolby Surround sound system or in an Imax theater.
The warm colour temperature gives a unique effect to the movie.

Details from Yahoo! Movies:

In the ancient Battle of Thermopylae, King Leonidas and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite against their Persian enemy, drawing a line in the sand for democracy.

Overall I can say.. It is a must watch for War genre movie lovers. Also for those whose admire the creativity done through Computer..

Today I watched a movie called “The Pursuit of happiness” starring Will Smith. Its a drama which is based on a true story. Usually I hate to watch dramas but this ones really different and didnt let me forward the scenes.

Will Smith’s acting is superb. The movie is immersive with Will Smith’s perfectly pitched performance.

It is a story of Chris Gardner who struggles in his life to get
happYness… That too in a little part.. To get his life back on track.. To make his son happy.. He doesnt loses his confidence when his wife leaves his family..

From ImDB:

In 1981, Chris Gardner was a struggling salesman in little needed medical bone density scanners while his wife toiled in double shifts to support the family including their young son, Christopher. In the face of this difficult life, Chris has the desperate inspiration to try for a stockbroker internship where one in twenty has a chance of a lucrative full time career. Even when his wife leaves him because of this choice, Chris clings to this dream with his son even when the odds become more daunting by the day. Together, father and son struggle through homelessness, jail time, tax seizure and the overall punishing despair in a quest that would make Gardner a respected millionaire.

In total, I can say….An old-fashioned Hollywood heartwarmer and a must watch.. Will Smith has delivered his best in the movie.
