ESCAPE PLAN (2013) ENGLISH MOVIE REVIEW

THE PLAN WAS JUST OK-OK!!!

PRODUCER: ROBBIE BRENNER, MARK KENTON

DIRECTOR: MIKEAL HALFSTORM

STAR CAST: ARNOLD, STALLONE, JIM, 50 CENT, VINNIE

MUSIC: ALEX HEFFES

Escape Plan is 2013 action thriller prison break movie which had yesteryears two biggest stars Sylvester Stallone and Arnold in lead roles. The film is directed by Mikeal Halfstorm who earlier directed movies like 1408, Evil and The rite. Having stars like Arnold and Stallone in a movie generates huge expectations and curiosity. People expect a fully action packed thriller. It has some action but the main theme is how they break from prison.

Nothing new in the plot and the suspense. It tells the story of escape from prison. But breaking prison scenes were good and interesting. The are some action sequences and gun battle to satisfies the fans of these two superstars. The interesting part of the movie was the plan to escape from prison which was shown very convincingly. Suspense was predictable.

The main performances come from Arnold and Stallone they did very well. Other star cast also did their part . BGM and camera work ere apt. there was tremendous production work and visual effects for the prison sequences which was the biggest plus point otherwise it was very ordinary movie.

Verdict: Strictly one time watch!!!

THE LONE RANGER – ENGLISH MOVIE REVIEW (2013)

Underrated Adventure!!! 

PRODUCER: Jerry Bruckheimer, Gore Verbinski

DIRECTOR: Gore Verbinski

STAR CAST: Johnny Depp, Armie Hammer, William fichtner, Tom Wilkinson

MUSIC: Hans Zimmer

The Lone Ranger is a Hollywood movie released in 2013, directed by Gore Vebrinski  who earlier directed much famous The Pirates of the Caribbean series and animated movie Rango. His teaming up with Johny Depp always produced good movies and he proves it again with this action adventure movie.

The lone Ranger is based on the radio series of the same name and it is produced by the veteran Jerry bruckemier and director himself. Movie opened to a very negative reviews from almost all the critics and it is considered as commercial failure in the box office. 

The movie deals with the conflicts between outlaws , the native Indians and thecorporates. It also deals with the emotional connection and sacrifice. Screen play treated humor and drama and some breath taking action sequences. The first half of the movie deals with plot development and some humor in it and towards climax filled with action.

Johny Depp steals the show and Carried the movie on his shoulder, other star cast did well. Top notch Cinematography made this movie a good one time watch. There was splendid graphics and special Kudos to the production department. They recreated the sets of 19^th century United States. Back ground score by Hans Zimmer was outstanding.

Verdict: Watch it for Johny Depp!!!

WORLD WAR Z - ENGLISH MOVIE REVIEW (2013)

BREATH TAKING EXPERIENCE!!!

PRODUCER: BRAD PITT, DEDE GARDNER, JEREMY, IAN BRYCE

DIRECTOR: MARK FORSTER

STAR CAST: BRAD PITT, MIREILLE, JAMES BADGE, MATHEW FOX

MUSIC: MARCO BELTRAMI

World war Z is directed by talented Mark Forster who earlier directed Quantum of solace. This time he delivers big time. This is a Zombie invasion movie, but not a regular cliched Zombie movie. The perfect use of technology with a interesting screenplay can do wonders and Mark Forster proves that with this movie

.

You will be in edge of your seat from the beginning. And the sequences of zombies attacking moves with super speed. There are many sequences which will amaze you, the Israel episode, the attack inside the airplane and the climax was awesome. 

Superb performance from lead cast Brad pitt, Mirellie, James badge and Mathew fox. And the actor who performed as infected zombies. Special kudos to the camera man and the special effect department. The back ground score was apt. 

Producers were planning sequels to the film and yes we would love to see more of zombies like this. If you missed this in theaters then grab a DVD and enjoy!!!

Verdict: Highly recommended!!!
