The fault in our stars

I will not lie to you: I cried a lot during this film. While I had been strong, and not cried when reading the book, I was a puddle when actually faced with a film that deals with the mortality of our two romantic leads: (Hazel) Shailene Woodley  and (Gus)Ansel Elgort . I loved their chemistry, the sweetness of their exchanges, and the stakes set up by their illnesses and friendship.
The story line was about Hazel and Augustus are two teenagers who share an acerbic wit, a disdain for the conventional, and a love that sweeps them on a journey. Their relationship is all the more miraculous, given that Hazel's other constant companion is an oxygen tank, Gus jokes about his prosthetic leg, and they meet and fall in love at a cancer support group.

How romantic can this get. I was really touched and I realised that true love is there and it comes when you least expect it. In the movie Hazel didn't even want to interact with people and going to that cancer group support was her mother's idea and surprisingly that's were she met her one and only true love.

The sweetest part of this movie is that they didn't let their illnesses to stop them from falling in love. The best part is they even had a code It's okay. Seriously how sweet and romantic could this be.
It's a rather sad, and unconventionally dire story, but one that is worth telling, and does justice to all those living with cancer and in love.

                                         
And just when I thought that these characters Shailene and Ansel would be actors in more sweet and romantic movies, to my surprise there they were in the movie Divergent and this time they were brother and sister. Crazy hey.....Divergent falls under the genre of adventure, sci-fi and thriller different from the drama and romance in The fault in our stars.

Shailene has starred in movies like The Secret Life of the American Teenager and The Descendants among many other movies.

Ansel has also starred in movie like Carrie and Men, Women and Children among also many other thrilling and exciting movies.

Fast and Furious 7....FAST 7/ FURIOUS 7

With all that has happened in the past year, the death of Paul Walker, I didn’t think my favourite movie would still come out this good.

From Fast and Furious 1 now we on 7, we sure have come a long way. I enjoyed each and every scene of that movie. My personal favourite however, was Fast 5. Woow am out of words to explain how much I enjoyed that movie. The soundtrack was amazing and I even made it my ringtone and also alarm tone LOL. I really fell in love with it.

Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Jordan Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges and Michelle Rodriguez among others are the crew which make up THE Fast and Furious. This crew is on point. I just love the way work with each other. Tyrese known as Roman in the movie has a great sense of humour and I just can’t help but love him for it. Not forgetting Ludacris his really good at what he does, singer and now acting that’s just multi-talented. And of course the main man, Vin Diesel known as Dominic Toretto. Toretto is just all serious but always puts his team first as he regards them as family.

 Fast and Furious 7 is sequel to Fast 6. Dominic Torretto and his crew thought they left the criminal mercenary life behind. They defeated an international terrorist named Owen Shaw and went their seperate ways. But now, Shaw's brother, Deckard Shaw Jason Statham is out killing the crew one by one for revenge. Worse, a Somalian terrorist called Jakarde, and a shady government official called "Mr. Nobody" are both competing to steal a computer terrorism program called God's Eye, that can turn any technological device into a weapon. Torretto must reconvene with his team to stop Shaw and retrieve the God's Eye program while caught in a power struggle between terrorist and the United States government.

The Divergent Series: Insurgent


picture taken from: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2908446/


Just when I thought I wouldn’t see  Shailene Woodley(Tris) and Theo James (Four) I was all depressed and bored. But yet again I was taken by surprise. 
Insurgent the follow up movie for Divergent is all new and has been released this 20th of March 2015. In Divergent, we had seen Tris and Four escaping being killed because they did not fit in any of the factions which were there.
In Insurgent, the stakes are raised for  the sweet couple Tris and Four as there are now fugitives being hunted down by Jeanine (Winslet) the leader of the power hungry Erudite elite. Tris alongside Four face many obstacles as they try to unearth what Tris family sacrificed their lives to protect and why the Erudite will do anything to stop them. Eventually, they unlock the truth about the past and ultimately the future of the world.

With all this action happening in Insurgent I highly recommend this movie it’s totally a must see movie of 2015. If you haven’t seen Divergent yet it’s time you do because I hate to say this you are definitely missing out on all the Sci-Fi, Action and Romance.
In Divergent it was all about being different from others and now in Insurgent it is all about rebelling and it has more action than the latter. So this year don’t miss out on all the movies that you have been anticipating since last year or 2 years back.

Pitch Perfect 2

picture taken from: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/pitch_perfect


I am a huge fan of musical and when it comes to movies with music in it I take no second thoughts and enjoy myself watching it.

From the first Pitch Perfect which was epic and we thought OMG it just ended when we wanted more but brace yourself ladies and gentleman as the Pitch Perfect cast takes us into yet another thrilling, epic and enjoyable movie.

Pitch Perfect 2 is an upcoming American musical comedy film directed by Elizabeth Banks and written by Kay Cannon, slated for release on May 15, 2015 from Universal Pictures. It is a sequel to the 2012 film Pitch Perfect, which was loosely adapted from Mickey Rapkin's non-fiction book, titled Pitch Perfect: The Quest for Collegiate A Cappella Glory. The film stars Anna Kendrick, Skylar Astin, Rebel Wilson, Anna Camp, and Brittany Snow.

I am so excited about this movie and can't wait to sing along with the Bellas. But what will make this movie more enjoyable and fun is our own dearest 'comedian' Rebel Wilson also known as Fat Amy in the movie. She is fun, crazy and exciting and her appearance in both the movies is definitely a blast and wouldn't want to miss any of her crazy stunts...



The BELLAS...






For all those who love musical movies this is definitely one not to miss..... I personally wouldn't miss that for anything...GO BELLAS!!!

There is so much amazing soundtracks that you can sing along to and guess what you could even be surprised to hear your favorite song being sang by the all talented Bellas.

This year its a year to sing out loud..with our very own celebrities....

The Fantastic Four



picture taken from: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1502712/

This year if it wasn’t for school I will be all seated on my parent’s couch enjoying all the epic movies lined up. 

Remember The Fantastic Four when it first aired in 2005. I was in grade 6 at that time. Damn I became a fan of  Jessica Alba, Ioan Gruffudd, Chris Evans and Michael Chiklis. I was so thrilled to see that just one incident can turn a normal human being into a super hero. As a kid when I watched this movie I really wanted to be a super hero and save the day...I mean what kid wouldn’t.

In this all new Fantastic Four we see the characters of Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Jamie Bell and Michael B. Jordan playing the characters Mr Fantastic, The Invisible Woman, The Thing and The Human Touch respectively. So sad was I to have new characters from the previous one but hey as long as they put on a good show who wouldn’t love them.

The Fantastic Four were 4 scientists who achieved superhuman abilities through a teleportation experiment which goes haywire. They must now use their superhuman abilities to save the world from an uprising tyrant.

Coming to a sad of note of mine, I was really hurt when I learned thatKiefer Sutherland also known as Jack Bauer in the series 24 was supposed to act in this movie as “The Thing.” I was devastated that I won’t be seeing him in this movie.

 Anyway, after watching the trailer, I really didn’t feel devastated anymore. I was actually thrilled and excited that I can’t wait for the 7th of August to see the whole movie.

What better way to start the first week of my birth month than watching an Action and Sci-Fi movie....
