The Social Network

From the directorial skills of David Fincher who has 'The Fight Club', 'Zodiac' and 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' in his repertoire. This movie doesn't concentrate on how FaceBook originated but delves into relationships of collaboration, trust and the zest to deserve for one's credibility in a cohort.   The Social Network' - technically succulent screenplay by 'Aaron Sorkin', deft direction by 'David Fincher' and an eloquent character resurrection of FaceBook megamind Mark Zuckerberg by 'Jesse Eisenberg'. The background 'industrial' score by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross gels in seamlessly with the plot. 
P.S. : I was so immersed in the immaculately shot regatta sequence from the 'The Social Network' that I never noticed the 'POLAROID' advertise on one of the kayak. Nice work Mr. David Fincher !!

The Cabin the Woods (2012) The Cabin in the Woods: Joss Whedon boasts of originality as the creator of characters and story for Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Toy Story. The originality continues with 2012 as the big year for him with the release of 'The Cabin in the woods' as writer and 'The Avengers' as writer/director. As cliché as the title 'The Cabin in the woods' may sound, so innovative is its scripting. The 'whore', the 'athlete', the 'joker', the 'intellectual' and the 'virgin' intertwine in the 'Tales from the Crypt’; however, it’s not the 'Tales from the Crypt' at all. The comic sense is impeccable and succeeds Joss's legacy. The viewer would pre-empt it to be 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre but somehow it supersedes '28 Weeks Later' or 'Halloween' with subtle ode to the yesteryears. Rave reviews are out after first screening of Avenger for Joss, documentarian of Comic-C...

Salutes Christopher Nolan for churning out such a fantastic script and directing it even more crisply. It just shows how an idea in a script can speak volumes irrespective of an ensemble cast,minimal special effects and gyrating action sequences.A heist on the brain by planting a seed into one's dream and eventually control an individual. And icing on the cake would be to control ones dream through a fake dream. The labyrinth can't get more dense. Leonardo DiCaprio says and I quote " When Christopher Nolan calls you up and says 'Look, I want to do a film that delves into the dreamscape, that delves into four different stages of the human subconscious, that is existential at times, it’s cerebral, surreal, and I want to do it on a grand Hollywood scale', you say ‘Okay, where do I sign?'" The soundtrack of 'Inception' by Hans Zimmer keeps you transfixed !!! P.S.:  In retaliation to the review in the New Yorker When Christopher Nolan advocates...
