Edge of the darkness- Not 'Edge' to the mark..?!?

Rating : 5.5/10

Genre : Drama, Thriller..

Director : Martin Campbell

Starring : Mel Gibson, Ray Winston..

Runtime : 117 mins..

Hardcore action, thrilling scenes, blood-chilling stunts, nail-biting suspense... This was ma expectation...!!! And it was a complete disappointment... Just disappointment...!!!

I am damn sure that Mel Gibson accepted to do this movie just because this movie is the film adaptation of the 1985 BBC television series of the same name and is directed by Martin Campbell and produced by Michael Wearing, who also directed and produced the series respectively.

I am a hardcore Mel Gibson fan, thats the main and only reason for watching this movie... But this time he failed to impress...

Thomas Craven, a single father, has been a Boston homicide detective for many years. His 24-year-old daughter Emma, his only child, is killed on the front steps of his home. At first it appears that Craven was the intended target. He soon uncovers evidence that leads him to think differently, and decides to pursue the information at all costs.

He learns his daughter led a secret life that led to her murder. He quickly finds himself confronted with a shadowy world of corporate collusion with government-sanctioned murder. In the process he collides with a secret government operative,

Darius Jed burgh, whose job is to clean up and hide any remaining evidence. Craven's singleness of purpose in finding answers about Emma's death becomes a transforming experience that changes his life...

The movie is good in some parts, I wont say its a complete waste, its a onetime watch movie... Technically speaking, the direction is classic but not made for young generation.. it makes people get bored in many sequences.. Same continuous with screenplay, dialogues, cinematography and action or stunt... everything is in 1980s standards... grow up guys, its 2010...!!!

Watch the movie for Mel Gibson...!!! Only because of him I was in theatre... He was at his best as usual...!!! He was natural and a perfect performance for the age of the character he is doing... His performance is not only treat for his fans, but for all... go for it for him... None of other performances were noticeable..

GOOD:

1. Mel Gibson..

2. Some of or we can say very few thrilling surprise scenes..

3. An old classic feeling..

BAD:

1. Boring..

2. Boring..

3. Still boring.. Its interval..

4. Boring..

5. Boring to say how is the

climax..!!

Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa - A beautiful GVM love story (+68%) - Movie review

--> This is a Tamil language movie, released in 2010, directed by Goutham V Menon (GVM), starring Silambarasan and Trisha in the leading roles. A simple love story told in a Goutham Menon style, with all ingredients of his usual recipe followed like a half spoon of Tanglish, half spoon of over the top romance, a pinch of romantic cringe, four spoons of dream song sequences, one-third spoon of length of the movie, a bit of heartbreak and two spoons of amazing locations. Of course, this movie will have a cult following as well as financial success at the box office, critics, as well as viewers, will like this movie because it is fresh for its time. Good Alappuzha locations (Kudos to the cinematographer) and amazing music by the legendary AR Rahman. Its a sweet emotional love-drama with heartbreaks and a different ending to the movie. Sometimes I feel the movie is dragged but in some places, I felt it is necessary. Simbhu has done a good ...

Manasaare - A sweet, witty typical Yograj Bhat love story (+67%) - Movie review (Short)

This is a Kannada language movie released in 2009, Directed by Yograj Bhat and starring Digant and Aindrita Ray in leading roles. This was the time when the Yograj Bhat used to make witty simple movies that would touch our hearts, and this being one of them, I would like to see this Yograj Bhat-Pawan Kumar combination more often. A simple, witty, and quirky movie with songs penned by the greats like Yograj Bhat himself, Pawan Kumar, and Jayant Kaikini. The combination was best, locals were simple, mesmerizing songs, a simple love story told in such a way that the viewers are glued to the seats without any thrilling elements being in the movie. Good performances by then young actors like Digant and Aindrita (Now married in real life), also the supporting actors have done a tremendous job. The experience of Director Yograj Bhat was easily visible in all the scenes. A good camera work by Hegde capturing beautiful locals even in dream sequences....
