Despicable Me

Movie time for Paavani! But she is still too tiny to understand the nitty-gritties of a movie, I guess. She was just fascinated with minions but other than that, she was not really hooked onto it. A nice time-pass movie though.

The Wolf of Wall Street

Had very high expectations after having read the novel. But alas, the movie did not live up to the expectations. There are quite a few variations in the movie and it clearly misses Jordan's true narrative style. Still, for those who cannot endure reading books, this is an easy way of getting a glimpse into the life of Jordan Belfort!

Before Midnight

Very similar to the initial movies (Before Sunrise and Before Sunset) in terms of dialog, direction - signature being plain simple endless conversation between a guy and a gal. Some scenes are simply mind-boggling - such as the one when Julie and Ethan leave the airport and are talking in the car like how a normal husband and a wife do. That scene goes on and on and on without a 'Cut'...it is quite impossible to fathom that the actors memorized the script or maybe they were just to told to talk normally! Quite an entertainer.

Race 2

Story line, direction, acting and pretty much follows the same theme and pattern as Race. Same kind of twists and turns, and lot of unexpected twists. Doesn't bore but sometimes it is rather too much to believe. Some scenes easily look bogus and it kind of looks cheap stunt. But watchable with a yawn.
