Miss Sloane (2016)

Well well well. That certainly surprised me.

[9/10 · 17 May 2021]

I was just watching to pass the time and I have only intended to see only the 1st half hour, but the pace of the movie is really compelling. I really couldn't stop watching till the end.

A worth watching movie in addition to a strong and intelligent screen writing.

Once you finish, you'll go back to check many scenes of the movie. Guaranteed.

Me Before You (2016)

An Awful message in a very cheerful & lovely movie

[1/10 · 9 August 2016]

the art of Movies should give people hope, instead; this movie is a hope killer. this movie is saying "live Boldly", unless you are are with disability !! what about real people with real disability who will watch this movie? the movie makers are telling them that it's better to die than to struggle in life !!

We have many incredible examples for people with disability like (for example) stephen hawking, whose disability was even greater than "will", hawking couldn't even speak or move his head. but he he is one of the greatest scientists in the world.

Many moments in the movie are cheerful & touching, specially Lou who is hilarious funny & very innocent; however, the message the movie delivering is terrible.

Prisoners (2013)

Great Disappointment

[4/10 · 22 January 2014]

this film was a great disappointment to me. I was too much excited to see the movie, however, after that i was shocked. the The movie was completely destroyed by the director, although the acting is very great but you can feel the movie is very heavy & tense (in a bad way).

a lot of questions are left without answers: for example: *why the young girl accused the father of "Being There" with the kidnappers ??!!!

*where cops found the young girl & how she run away ?

*why we don't see the actual maze? instead of watching a lot of plots made by the characters?

i didn't enjoy the movie at all and the end was like a disaster to me, unfinished in a very silly way.
