Two line Reviews - #2

Movie: Cape Fear



Pluses:
The De Niro Scorsese combination.
De Niro just terrorises in all ways possible - Body language, Accent, tatooed toned physique.
The girl who plays the child of Nolte - Brilliant portrayal of a confused teenager.
The Music - Apt for the genre.

Minuses:
Climax could have been better.
A remake,so not all credits can go to the team.

Overall Score - 8.8/10

Two line Reviews - #1

Planning to give small reviews for some of the good movies i ve been watching..

Let me start this with "Before the devil knows you are dead"


Movie: Before the devil knows You are Dead(2007)
Pluses:
Philip Seymour Hoffman's brilliant performance ably supported by the ones who play his father and his brother.
Brilliant camera angles on mono/bi logues
To top it all, the direction of the legendary Sidney Lumet at 84 yrs of age
Minuses:
Too much of voyeurism that makes this otherwise 'for all' film virtually not viewable for children.

Overall Score - 8.6/10
