Denzel Washington

Many actors exist for Action Movies, but Denzel Wasington does the most serious of them. Just finished watching the Man on Fire (2004). Loved it.

Earlier I had watched the Equalizer movies, equally great.

Watched another Movie today, The Contender (2000)

Posted on November 30, 2020 by A Random Blogger

Watched another movie today. Its about the nomination of a female vice-president, but the speeches and the dialogues are just great. I loved the concluding speech by the President, he starts by saying everyone in the Congress is bad, and then they end up clapping for him, when he ends the speech. That is one hell of a speech.

Just watched the Movie – Superintelligence (2020)

Posted on November 27, 2020November 27, 2020 by A Random Blogger

I loved the acting by Melissa McCarthy. More than that, a humorous superintelligence is trying to decide the fate of all human beings (i.e., to save us, enslave us, or destroy us) by studying an average human for three days. It is definitely going in the recommended movies list related to artificial intelligence.

Movie – Charlie Wilson’s War

Posted on November 22, 2020November 22, 2020 by A Random Blogger

It’s another great movie by Tom Hanks. It really explains the Afghan Situation the world has to deal with today. Somehow, American dollars helped end the Soviet Aggression into the Afghan by handing them weapons but failed to open Schools (post-war) for the children to educate them.

These things happened. They were glorious and they changed the world… and then we fucked up the end game.

Some really great movies on US Presidents/The First Family

Posted on November 22, 2020November 23, 2020 by A Random Blogger

I have recently watched a few movies on US presidents. I really liked the ones with a relaxed/light-weight story.

  • Dick (1999) – A comedy sees the Watergate scandal through the eyes of two silly but smarter-than-they-look teenagers
  • Man of the Year (2006) – Tom Dobbs (Robin Williams), a news anchor, contests and accidentally/surprisingly wins the US Presidental election, but there is more.
  • Dave (1993) – Dave bears an uncanny resemblance with President Bill Mitchell. When Bill suffers a stroke while having sex with one of his aides, Dave is called to impersonate the President on an ongoing basis.
  • The American President (1995) – A Comedy-drama about a widowed US president and a lobbyist who fall in love.
  • First Kid (1996) – A comedy movie about the President’s teenage boy and his security detail.
  • Chasing Liberty (2004) – The president’s daughter, fed up with being tailed by the Secret Service, runs away. She meets the charming Ben and is unaware that he is secretly working for her father, trying to bring her back home.
  • First Daughter (2004) – Just like a romantic fairy tell movie; not with a princess, but with the first daughter.
