Watched 12 Angry Men of 1957. Amazing movie! What a concept, script, screenplay, cinematography and performance from all actors. Makes you wonder the kind of matured movie making by Hollywood even in those times.
Absolutely agree with you bro.. I have seen that movie almost 20-25 times since I first downloaded it..
It shows you the kind of powerful performance and excellent direction.. You don't feel bored though it has the same setup.. a single room, 12 chairs and an animated set of jury... no exotic locations required.

Also, I'd like to add few more movies that are my absolute favorites..
Shawshank Redemption
Schindler's List
The Pianist

On a lighter note.. has anyone watched
Gunda and The Angrez[lol]

PK - 6/10, one-time watch. Preachy/Feel Good/Artificial feel, typical Amir Khan. Second half has drag, Amir's lecture will make you forget that you are watching a movie in theatre not Satyamev Jayate.

Highway - 8.5/10, Awesome. Randeep Hooda and Alia Bhatt have delivered their best performance, Imtiaz Ali at his best.

Rightly said. Second time I was watching it, feeling utterly boring.[sleep][sad]

Watched Fast & Furious 7 today (Couldn't wait till weekend). If you liked the earlier movies in the franchise (except tokyo drift may be) this installment
won't disappoint you. Cars are in the air "flying" most of the time and there are some great drag racing on road too [lol]. This time there is lot more of
action,fist fights, kaboom scenes and running around the globe, with Jason statham added to the star cast. They are paying homage to Paul Walker towards
the end credits as part of the story itself. If you watch F&F series movies for muscle cars and some high on adrenaline action scenes and not much bothered
about the logical reasoning of the stuff shown, this may be the best of the series. As bollywood is concerned, Ali Fazal, the "Fukrey" boy got a small role
in the movie. Don't want to let out any spoilers [:D]!.

Rating: 9 out of 10.

PS: Guys, after watching the movie go to restroom and wash your face. Take a good look at the mirror, you still got lots of hair on your noddle, so you are no
way Dominic Toretto. So drive slow and safe on your way back home. [;)]

Just got back after watching furious 7.

Movie is loaded with cars and action unfortunately don't think it was the best movie in the series. It fails to achieve that same level of excitement.
You'll start thinking on every jason's entry[lol] " just how"

Dwayne johnson took salman khan's tshirt ripping scene to a whole new level [:D]
Roman is there to make you laugh and he did that job alright.

Lameass wrote a nice review and covered most of the parts.

My rating - 7/10

Name of the movie: Furious 7
Genre: Action, comedy (thanks to tyrese)
Language: English
Your review: Good movie. Thankfully, no never ending runways in this movie, since the crew chose to jump off the plane with their cars. On a serious note, this is one of the finest movie of the franchise (let's keep the logic aside). Unless you know, it's hard to realise that one of the lead characters of the movie couldn't complete the movie. It had been directed in a way the story has a smooth and consistent flow.
Spoiler alert: Tribute to Paul walker at the end is something that is really touching. The exit of the character couldn't have been executed in any more respectable way!

IMO no one can differentiate between the scenes shot with Paul Walker himself and the scenes completed with CGI and Paul's brothers though some people says the CGI scenes are ill lighted and shot at tricky angles. Read somewhere that the cars falling off from plane scenes were not graphics made but real stunts [surprise]. Another post-watching trivia for me was the guy fighting Paul in a bus is the Goong, Ong Bak series of movies' lead actor Tony Jaa.

^^One more great movie in the series.Was that Tony Jaa in the bus action? I was thinking why the lead actor like Tony Jaa was only in the climax scene with paul walker for less than 2 minutes and guessed that may be they changed the story due to Pauls death.

Its good that they not made any drama / not tried to use Paul's death in the movie like our Indian movie scens. great thing is they are not killing paul's legendray character of o conor in the movie.

I had seen the last 3 movies of the series, in the theature and each felt like last one is the best one.
This time I saw the movie in 3D and i cant enjoy it. neither movie felt that clear nor saw much 3D effects like other 3D movies. Thinking about going once again for the 2D show.

Can we expect another one in the series?

The way they have shown Jason Statham's character in the climax it feels like there is more to come. Same with the Kurt Russell's
federal agent Mr.Nobody, the new addition to the team and Agent Hobbs who had not much to do in the movie. Also the series being
the most successful one across a span of 14 years there is a fair chance that there will be few more installments.
There is a half clue in this video 2:30[;)]

Yes, the next installment of the series is going to be shot in New York City as confirmed by Vin Diesel in one of his recent interviews.

I too made the same mistake of going for 3D. The entire movie was dull and dark and as a matter of fact, not even a single scene that demands 3D for this movie. I think, 3D is a mere eyewash for these movies. I decided, never to go for a 3D movie again.
