Blackhat
(2015)

A big disappointment...the reviews
So I ain't saying it's a masterpiece, it's really far from being one but was pretty good.

Plot - As we all know, the plot may sound a little regular and yes it is but nothing is as simple as the plot sounds. Many people won't even find out what the enemy wants.

Technical stuff - I feel the need of shedding some light on it. Yep, some hated it but I was pretty satisfied with the tricks Hathaway uses, for example, Keylogger, Terminal etc. And every movie doesn't use that realistic stuff so it was pretty good.

Cons -

A little slow paced around the half. The love story was really boring.

Conclusion - It's a great one, surely if you are a geek, you will be able to understand many of the sequences. If you are not a geek, you will probably find it to be boring. Where the climax pays off for everything, it becomes boring in the midway, making you turn off the device.

Ahem, the "he just runs and shoots people instead of being a hacker" part, kindly watch the movie and understand what he uses and does, 75% of the movie is about hacking. The action sequences are really less.

The Breakfast Club
(1985)

Released 3 decades ago, still fresh
The last review is from 2003. And I am writing one in 2015. So 12 years. I just felt like watching it because had nothing to. Last year, I watched Rocky and didn't love it, 6/10. So was wondering if I should bother watching an old movie again but gave it a try.

The story is of 5 teen students who end up getting a detention of 9 hours on a weekend. Each person has his/her own story. And they just mean that no person is free of problems and that they all make mistakes and move on. I think that every teen who thinks that his life sucks, watch it, you will know that it's been the same for decades if not for centuries.

Other than that, at one point, you feel like not completing at all but the last 30 minutes pay it off. At first, it just feels boring but you will learn to understand it.

If you are from the too much new generation, listening to rappers, smoking weed, and love teen movies like Twilight, and stuff like "Teen Wolf", you won't understand it totally.

The movie is about how, given time, the 5 students learn to respect each other's problems and to respect the perspective of the other students.

It's pretty weird though how I first wrote the review ASAP after completing the movie and gave it a 7. A few hours later, after reading some stuff, I came back and gave a thought to it and felt that it surely needed a 9 if not a 10 (like many have given it).

It may seem completely messed up at one point where the kids are doing stuff while being high but everything you watch in the movie, will have an impact on how you think.

Big Hero 6
(2014)

A must watch for Marvel fans
So basically, it's a movie which is inspired from the Marvel's comic book with the same title. Removing the serious parts from the comic book, Big Hero 6 by Walt Disney is a bliss for those who ended up loving similar movies, for example, Kung Fu Panda, The Incredibles etc. They have changed the story a lot which makes it way too different than the comic.

Other than that, what I loved about the movie is how, throughout the movie, Hiro, the protagonist learns of responsibilities and to come over his pain.

They have done a great job on Baymax, who, in the comic was a "monster" (seriously)? At some point, the movie seems like it is lacking the fun but that's just for 10-20 minutes and I am very sure of the fact that most of the viewers will end up loving Baymax for his behavior and way of speaking.

This is not some another movie like Planes but a whole new experience from Disney which blends comedy and action nicely along with a sense of responsibility.
