PLOT
The story revolves around Leonard, a claims officer whose wife is murdered during a freak break-in by a couple of junkies and he ends up with a head injury causing short term memory loss. His sole mission in life remains a cold-blooded revenge, reviving himself through a series of tatoos, notes and learning from the mistakes of Sammy Jenkis, a guy he came across during his claims-officer days with a similar condition.

REVIEW
THE most technically brilliant film and THE most explosive concept anyone has ever come up with in the history of cinema (if you say "ghajini" i will scream..it is the most PATHETIC remake ever made). Besides a fantastic storyline and excellent acting performances, the editing steals the show. Sequenced backwards, the entire movie begins with the technically last scene and ends with the first scene. The muffled narrative adds some sort of a realism to the movie. Also the concept of parellally moving cinema is the only i have ever seen(two different time lines of the story occuring simultaneously and moving towards each other to meet at a centre point). If i havent managed to scare you yet....this movie is a MUST watch for any serious cinema buff. Watch it how many ever times it takes for you to understand...and then watch it once more to spot all the "hidden" editing tricks (it took me five times to spot it). Last word...MUST "C"




The Purpose

This is our creative common.. It is here where we share our passion for movies and film making but this is more or less our "critic" blog.. in a manner of speaking. It is here where we write our reviews of the movie we all love to hate..and hate to love..or plain and simply hate/love. It is here where we recommend the movie you should "c" and maybe not "c" (a nice modification of hamlet don't you think ;))

Requests

Any movie that you want to see but don't know if it's worth your time..?? request for a review.. and we'll do our best to review it ASAP!
