3 movies in 2 days..what better way to enjoy the weekend?
'Thank you for Smoking' has been on my laptop for so long and I managed to finally double click on that mpeg file at 1:00 AM Saturday early morning, as soon as I got back from office. Well... the movie certainly is worth watching and must be made part of the Marketing specialization of MBA. The hero's dialog delivery and body language are right on target and the best part of the movie is the session at his kid's classroom...short; yet makes a great impact..and the change in the kid's attitude towards his father is fantastically portrayed...
'Constantine' - the movie started with some age old prophecy. whew...worst of the lot..what was the director trying to say?? pathetic storyline..the all usual God vs Satan..do the graphics save the face of the movie?? not really is my call..keanu reeves looks great...that is all this movie merits in my opinion...
'Chicken Little' - Walt Disney animation..need i say more.excellent sound tracks..graphics and a story that suits the animation genre..Mr.Cluck (Chicken little's father) doesn't believe in Chicken Little after Little creates a huge confusion about sky falling..All through the movie Little tries to make up for it and in the end succeeds..my favourite character..the gold fish..beautifully crafted animation with a helmet containing water on its head..
(Constantine and CL..back to back..from 9:00 PM Saturday to 1:00AM Sunday..hehehe)
I cannot help but draw parallels between the thread that is common to 'Thank you for smoking', 'Chicken Little' and 'Pursuit of happiness': father son relationship portrayed in different forms..though the last one is about the father's fight to lead a better life..a fantastic one...the other 2 are a bit light-hearted on the same theme..one that i relish..personally!!
and am not completely done..plan to watch Chicken Run tonight..
