Rememory (2017)


'Without memories, the present would be void of context'

IMDb Plot Summary: The widow of a wise professor stumbles upon one of his inventions that's able to record and play a person's memory.

The IMDb plot summary for this movie doesn't do this film any justice. So this is what the movie is all about. Gordon Dunn has invented a machine that can fetch the memories of a person, anything a person has even lived through even if he doesn't remember it himself, up to the minutest detail and play it back to them as a video on a screen. One day, he mysteriously dies. This is when a strange man, Sam, played by Peter Dinklage, goes around trying to find out how Gordon died, suspecting that foul play was involved.

This movie will take you on an emotional ride. If you are looking for an 'experience', this movie is the one for you. Dim the lights, put on your headphones and let the movie do its magic. Its got some awesome soundtracks that will get you right in the mood. While I'm not a big fan of acting by some of the cast members, Peter Dinklage is just perfect and I feel he's such a perfect casting for this film that I don't think anyone else could have done it any better. Yes, this film can seem to be slow at times but the way this movie carries the viewer into a world of its own somewhat makes up for it. Depending on how much attention you have been paying to the movie, you may or may not see what's coming, but very likely, its gonna pleasantly surprise you. And the way this movie ends is simply gorgeous.

An IMDb 8/10. Recommended watch for sure.

Atypical (2017) 'Human behaviour is less like a chicken and more like an albatross. No matter how far an albatross flies, it always returns home. Unless it flies too close to the water and gets eaten by a tiger shark' IMDb Plot Summary: Sam, an 18-year-old on the autism spectrum, decides it's time to find a girlfriend, a journey that sets Sam's mom on her own life-changing path as her son seeks more independence. I am a big fan of Apatow's Freaks and Geeks and when I came to know that a new teenage comedy had come out, I had to, at the very least, check it out. I hated Netflix's last attempt at a teenage show (13 Reasons Why) and hence I was very sceptical about this one. But in the end, Atypical turned out to a be pleasant surprise! This show is about an 18 year old kid in the autism spectrum and how he deals with his daily life, friends and family and most importantly, his quest to find himself a girlfriend. Alongside, we see the lives of his

Narcos (2015) 'To kill a monster, sometimes, you have to get in bed with other monsters. If that surprises you, pick up a history book. Its what we do; the enemy of my enemy is my friend' IMDb Plot Summary:  A chronicled look at the criminal exploits of Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar, as well as the many other drug kingpins who plagued the country through the years. The first two seasons of this genius TV show was about the drug lord Pablo Escobar. Now everyone knows about Pablo and so the fact that he dies at the end of it all should come as no surprise to anyone. And since the first two seasons were solely focused on Escobar and his empire and everything that surrounded his reign, with his death, we all decided without even giving it a second thought that this amazing TV show had come to an end. And today I browse the internet to find Narcos has hit us all with another season! This time focusing on the Cali cartel that grew while everyone was focused on Pab

Love at First Fight (2014) 'The army is hard up. It is the number one recruiter in France' 'Number two. The first is McDonald's' IMDb Plot Summary:  Between his friends and the family business, Arnaud's summer looks set to be a peaceful one. Peaceful until he runs into Madeleine, as beautiful as she is brusque, a concrete block of tensed muscles and doomsday prophecies. He expects nothing; she prepares for the worst. He takes things as they come, likes a good laugh. She fights, runs, swims, pushes herself to the limit. Given she hasn't asked him for anything, just how far will he go along with her? It's a love story. Or a story of survival. Or both. This story is about a girl who believes that an apocalypse is on its way and she has to prepare for it, and the way to do that is by joining the hardest military regiment to learn how to survive in the harshest conditions. This story is also about a guy, who has a chance encounter with
