"As the telling signs of age rain down

A single tear is droppin'

Through the valleys of an aging face

That this world has forgotten"

He felt a strange calmness within. Ideas were swirling through the brain. Nothing too clear, nothing too bright. But their very existence gave him some pleasure. The acknowledgement of their presence gave him some reassurance that he was indeed meant for greater things, that one day he would change the world. But then, his thoughts came back to the present. Reality is a bitch they say, and how right they are about such things. Thoughts were now moving faster than light. The brain can process negativity faster than anything else. His thoughts were about his life and how bad his present situation was, how much better off everyone else was. His brain followed its programming by releasing liberal amounts of cortisol, depression slowly crept in. He wanted to make it stop , go back to being happy , go back to when he was thinking about going to watch the play , go back in time when all that remained was joy. But was there such a time to go back to? When was it that he could remember being happy? He could not remember now .He wanted it to end and the only way his body knew to shut it out was by shutting down. He lit the cigarette, and took one huge puff of smoke. The black smoke filled his lungs and the bronchi started work, absorbing the nicotine saturated smoke into the bloodstream. It took less than a few seconds for the nicotine to hit the central nervous system. He felt dizzy and then his thoughts cleared. He felt a strange calmness within. Ideas were swirling through the brain .Nothing too clear, nothing too bright . . .

What is the most resilient parasite? Bacteria? A virus? An intestinal worm? An idea. Resilient... highly contagious. Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it's almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed - fully understood - that sticks; right in there somewhere

JUSTICE!!!  ... anyone ?

Steppenwolf from the Justice league the movie could be cast as a villain in a Bollywood movie against Johnny Lever and still could not be even slightly menacing. Since the end of Nolanverse , DC has been unable to stew the right villain ingredients. From Man of Steel to Justice league, DCEU villains were just dumb..brutish beings. The age of Intelligent villains...has sadly ended .

Batman vs superman : dawn of mediocrity

Will the world just watch and wait for god to carry out his plans , even if it includes murder of innocents ? Will god ever be questioned ? Will anyone stand up to him ? Will humans ever rise up against him? Will the god bleed ? … yes he will !

After supermans heroics to save earth from the evil zod and his henchmen the world has been divided . One group who see superman as a god being …the saviour of human kind… And the other group who considers him a threat to humanity. Wayne enterprises and a few members of its staff become collateral damage in the fight between zod and superman.This draws attention of the retired darkknight to the fact that superman cannot be left a loose canon .The story progresses from here , takes a few twists and turns and ends up in a completely different stage by which it turns out to be an advertisement to dc studios future endeavours.What began as a promising plot turns out into a bad monster movie . The performance and technical aspects were top notch. Ben affleck gave an extremely controlled performance as batman.Henry Cavill also did justice to the troubled aliens role. The losers in the list include the character of lois lane who looked lost .There is not much that lois had to do other than be a damsel in distress.The other loser role was done by jesse eisenberg who couldn’t handle the role of lex luthor too convincingly. With eisenberg lex turned out to be a irritatingly stupid kid and not the charismatic intelligent super villain.

Ex Machina

One of the greatest problems science fiction movies have been dealing with has been in creating an atmosphere where suspension of disbelief occurs subconsciously. For this to happen the movie should respect the audience’s intelligence and create the story without inconsistencies. Every movie , as in the words of Mr.Christopher Nolan , should have a separate world , a logic and feel to it that expands beyond the image the audience is seeing . Ex machina , being a scientific thriller is very successful in this regard . There are grand ideas worth pondering over and the logic is sufficiently well crafted to not induce any sort of abnormality that would put you off, considering the science of the film.

Can a human relate to a machine even after knowing that it is a machine behaving like a human ? Is the machine just mocking what it thinks is human behaviour or is it actually behaving that way? What makes us human ? These questions set the premise of the story .

The performance of the cast is impeccable . The technical team behind the screens has done a brilliant job too.These factors have led to the making of a brilliant sci fi film.One of the best in the past year .

Spectre

Ridiculously fast cars , immensely talented actors , bucket loads of money , extremely good cinematography , guns , sex , violence , assassin Batista who chooses to make a violent entrance every time and make a mess of it rather than just shoot bond and finish the job , a supervillain who ( as usual ) plots to dominate the world order , outrageously complex ( read inefficient ) machines the villain uses to kill his foe , a mysterious organization , political undertones , exploding mi6 headquarters , exploding watches , exploding planes and Monica Belluci are not enough to make a good movie . Spectre Sucked .
