Production year-2010

Director-Edgar Wright

Actors-Michael Cera,Mary Elizabeth Winstead,Jason Schwartzman,Kieran Culkin,Ellen Wong.

Distributed by- Universal Pictures

Based on Graphic novel by Bryan Lee O'Malley.

My ranking- 8/10

Well this is a 2010 release but my sole reason to give its review is that I never got chance to watch it. Scott pilgrim vs. the World is not a commercial successful movie but as it usually hapeens in Hollywood good movies(for example-fight club,Donnie darko) are regularly ignored at box office and become smash hit in home videos and follows the cult following afterwards.Its adapted from a brilliant graphic novel as nowadays Hollywood got a good scripts from it(Example-300,sin city, The spirit,watchmen etc.)

Review-

Scott pilgrim(Michael cera) is a guy living in Canadian city Toronto and part of a rock band which consists of two guys and a girl named Kim,who also was the ex girlfriend of scott.He shares his room with a gay guy wallace(Kieran Culkin) and he have acted good as it seems he speaks from his eyes.He sms everything to scott’s sister even while sleeping,it was fun to watch himas he constantly goes on changing his partners.Totally no vulgarity scenes just seems very funny

Scott was just dumped up by her Girlfriend and felt upset and so get into a relationship with a high school Chinese girl.Just keep your logic aside as it seems they live on some parallel earth and it was fun.Don’t think that it’s just a non-sense story as screenplay is powerpacked,action scenes r superb and quite funny.

Now coming back on story and its main plot which is scott sees a girl with odd hair colored girl in her dream and meet Romana (Elzabeth Winstead ) which is the same girl he had seen in her dream,With some funny circumstances Scott dates Romana resulting in a grim consequences for former as he came to know that he will have to face romona’s 7 ex boyfriends termed as evil exes .At this point fun starts taking place as soon as Scott faces 1st evil ex while performing with his band film starts having a superb comic situations,actions which are really high quality and clear.He ll face 7 exes and outwit them through his courage and intelligence.Even there is a girl whom romana dated ,quite hilarious. The last contender Giddeon who had arranged all the exes turns out to be a main villain and climax fighting scene is impressive as it seems we are watching video game as Scott gets extra life and earn points,revivals which makes film more interesting.

BOTTOMLINE- A worth watch movie takes us in comic world,seems like a video game(it have videoGame by same name)where villains have supernatural powers,A world full of bizarre people and worth watching thing about this film is unpredicatibility.Comic sense and direction have different approach, cinematography itself seems as character as use of distance,lights ,speed is great.Music is pretty awesome as it got a touch of early video game sounds in movie especially in fighting sequence.Its a musical movie too but never seems like overdone.

For those who love movies,give it a try and who have seen it just watch it again.

THE LAST BULLET

Target photo -     Assassin’s phone flashed the message and picture, Prepared to hunt the victim; he readied himself, Carried the gun to shoot and machete to cut the prey, On mission to earn livelihood, Best killer; as he was known among his benefactors, Always elusive and anonymous to his hirers, Makes a deal and always asks motive to kill, Killing was his game to fame, Stalked the gullible to fetch right time to shoot, Got the chance at deserted street to take down the prey, Fired the gun and bullets pierced the ill-fated man’s body, Blood spilling from head to toe, Last bullet still in gun’s barrel, Murderous hand holding the gun, Paced near the body; knelt before the body and wept, Gun pointed by him on his forehead and last bullet smashed his brain, Assassin just killed his brother and followed the path of self-annihilation, Murderer's brother conspired to kill him, As killer's phone  dropped near his idle bloody body , Targe...

Mughal Emperor Akbar

Mughal Empire ruled the subcontinent from 1526 to the beginning of the British Raj in 1858.Babur's (1st mughal emperor in India) victory  at panipat in the year 1526 initiated Mughal raj in India.Well this post is not about Mughal history.This post is about Akbar-most sophisticated and successful Mughal Emperor.There are many firsts under his rule; equal respect to different religions, against casteism and most importantly- Akbar not only tolerated religions other than Islam, he encouraged interfaith discussion and debate. After listening to many religious scholars from the prominent religions of his empire (i.e., Islam, Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, and, to a lesser extent Jainism, Christianity and Judaism) he decided that no one faith was entirely and exclusively true; he developed a syncretic religion which he called Din-i Ilahi, "the Divine Faith" and encouraged his subjects to follow it. It combined elements primarily from Islam and Hinduism, but also from Zor...

JOB-LESS APPLE,WILL TIM BE ABLE TO COOK RIGHT RECIPY FOR APPLE?

Apple’s rise as a superb & innovative company in recent times is nothing short of to be called as awesome.From personal computers to other widely accepted products ,Apple’s journey is incredible.Years ago there was nothing as i’s (phone,pad,pod) but steve’s vision turned it into a reality and made the “i” products   everyone’s favorite and subject of envy for its competitors ,who thought   Apple is going to be rotten.Microsoft tried to imitate the success of ipod with its product ZUNE(I am sure many of us even don’t know that it existed),but failed to capture the attention of consumers. Its market capitalization puts it just ahead or just behind the longtime No. 1, Exxon-Mobil. Apple’s journey at a helm is not without dents,7 of its products can easily be tagged as failed in marketplace - 1)Apple III (1981) Successor to the hugely popular Apple II is focused on business users and of course the price is also adjusted. Unfortunately, the hardware is not reliable 2)L...
