Your weekend movie reviews

Date:

The three movies back to back are all worth the watch. Here is the brief idea presented to you before you hit the theaters near you. Check out the reviews for this weekend movies.

Dishoom

‘Dishoom‘ is an out and out pot boiler film which does have its moment where logic can be questioned. This Rohit Dhawan movie featuring Varun Dhawan, John Abraham, Jacqueline Fernandez, Akshaye Khanna is stylish, fast paced and entertaining.

This is Rohit Dhawan’s second film after Desi Boyz and as a director he too has evolved. Unlike his debut film, where the pace of the movie was slightly slow, this movie is much faster. He has shot scenes from various angles that has allowed the editor to keep the film edgy and fast paced. The climax scene has been shot well but doesn’t appear too effective.

The BFG

The BFG minimizes the darker elements of Roald Dahl’s classic in favor of a resolutely good-natured, visually stunning, and largely successful family-friendly adventure. With “The BFG,” Steven Spielberg has taken a break from the serious-minded sweep of his recent political procedurals (“Bridge of Spies,” “Lincoln”) and attempted to fashion a new classic of childhood wonderment. In this he has been only partially successful.

Dragged along by the insistent churnings of John Williams’ score, the movie is noisy and emphatic at times when a quieter, moodier touch would suffice, and it contains at least one antic sequence, involving a homemade water flume, that could be a prototype for an attraction coming soon to a Disney theme park near you. “The BFG” is a far-from-perfect movie that may have arrived at the perfect moment. Like so many good dreams, it leaves us groping for a past that can never be recovered, but also looking ahead to a future that suddenly seems brighter, and friendlier, than we had dared to believe.

Ghostbusters 

Ghostbusters holds a very special place in the heart of any kid from the ’80s. Granted, it wasn’t the best thing to go down in pop culture history, but it did spawn good television and remains etched in memory. Then there were the animated shows that everyone in the early ’90s, this one included, hungrily devoured every early evening after school. To the uninitiated, the two films were introductions to comedy greats Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray. The two had plenty of recognisable work before the 1984 supernatural comedy, but with Ghostbusters, they entered a new league.

No big whup and no big fat flop either, the female reboot of Ghostbusters settles for being a fine, fun time at the movies.

 Have fun time folks!!
