Logan, movie review
Supposedly the finale of the Wolverine franchise, Logan itself is an offshoot of the X-Men series. The makers of this series have carefully crafted the character to highlight the human side and named it Logan rather then his larger than life superhero the Wolverine as he is also show anything but a superhero. The story is set in the year 2029 the special school and all the X-Men are gone, with no more new mutants on the block.

This child and many like her drawn from genes of various mutants and the surrogacy were being nurtured and b ....

The film recounts a series of terrifying events experienced by three Wisconsin college students, People commit unthinkable acts every day. Time and again, we grapple to understand what drives a person to do such terrible things. But what if all of the questions we’re asking are wrong?

xXx: Return of Xander Cage, movie review
Deepika Padukone makes an impressive debut in Hollywood with this action film. Its not only that Indian girls win international beauty contests, this Bollywood actress has fortified the belief that Bollywood actresses can now make a mark on the international entertainment industry. xXx: Return of Xander Cage is the third film in the xXx franchise. The earlier ones being xXx (2002) followed by xXx: State of the Union in 2005 in which the character of Xander Cage was supposedly killed. The style and music of this installment is similar to that of the original films with a heavy dose of extreme stunts, now added attraction is that of heavy metal soundtrack.

Passengers - Movie review
There have been a spate of sci-fi movies and more so lately, but this is an absolute novel idea of space travel and romance. Largely a three character space odessey, it plays out the feelings between the main protagonists under various circumstances. This one is really different from other space fantasies in its form, storyline and characterization. There are no final frontiers to explore, no alien beings, no worp speed ships (i.e. super light speed, this ship travels @ a measely 50% of light speed) and no chrome plated fancy weapons, a simple tale mounted on a what if situation which is plausible in a not so distant future. Passengers is about a magificient space ship Avalon which is carrying a crew of 258 and 5000 passengers from different walks of life and different skillsets with a promise of a new beginning and bright future. The whole crew and passengers are in hibernation in t ....

Assassins Creed movie review
Assassins Creed is a very popular video game which the legions of true gamers will vouch for the thrills they got playing it. Therefore it was but natural that it be turned into a big movie franchise, the idea though exciting left a lot to be desired from this movie enterprise which already holds a brand equity amongst the young. The basic premise is about the Apple of Eden which has been lost for five centuries and is the cuss point between the secret societies of The Templars and the highly trained, combative and sworn to their lives, the Assassin Creed. This war between these two factions has been going on for centuries as the The templars want to unleash the power of the Apple of Eden which contains the Genetic code for finishing the free will of the masses thus enslaving them. Cut to mordern day USA where a young Cal Lynch (Michael Fassbender - impressive and has come lo ....
