The Conjuring 2

The Conjuring 2 is a 2016 American supernatural horror film directed by James Wan.Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga reprise their roles as paranormal investigators and authors Ed and Lorraine Warren. The Warrens travel to the United Kingdom to assist the Hodgson family, who are experiencing poltergeist activity at their Enfieldcouncil house in 1977.



Cast:-
      Vera Farmiga
      Patrick Wilson
      Frances O'Connor
      Madison Wolfe
      Simon McBurney
      FrankaPotente


There’s a reason why James Wan is widely considered as the modern horror filmmaker. The way he constructs his jump scares, and the skill with which he builds up the anticipation towards the scares is unmatched.



Wan shifts the story this time to London where a single mother (Frances O Connor) and her kids are terrorised by something inhuman creeping in the shadows of the house. Lorraine (Vera Farmiga) and Ed Warren (Patrick Wilson) are once again called to investigate the matter when the police and the doctors (hilariously) fail to explain the phenomenon. What follows are the usual set of elements — the Lorrains discover the malevolent entity and try, at great personal risk, to get rid of it. And each of the three kids in the house is greeted by the ghostly entity in different, twisted ways,with Madison Wolfe, playing 11-year-old Janet, the clear standout. As the child to receive the brunt of the demonic abuse, Wolfe registers fear more palpably that most scream queens twice her age.And since the ghost literally says he likes to scare kids, there’s a whole sandbox of scares at play. 


This flipside to all this is that The Conjuring 2 does feel like Wan has made the same film for the fifth time now. But it’s a must watch flim to every Horror movie lover fan!!!!

Now You See Me 2

Now You See Me 2 (internationally known as: Now You See Me: The Second Act) is a 2016 American magic caper thriller film directed by Jon M. Chu. A sequel to the 2013 film Now You See Me, it stars Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson and Dave Franco, with Daniel Radcliffe, Lizzy Caplan, Jay Chou, and Sanaa Lathan; Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman also reprise their roles.



      Cast:-
            Jesse Eisenberg
            Mark Ruffalo
            Woody Harrelson
Dave Franco
            Daniel Radcliffe
Lizzy Caplan
Jay Chou
Sanaa Lathan
Arthur Tressler
            Morgan Freeman

In “Now You See Me 2,” the infamous tricksters known as the Four Horsemen are back, toying with our heads in even more delirious — and ridiculous — ways. They’re now underground legends, known for having pulled off an elaborate heist right in the middle of a magic show, and this is one of those movies in which the bravura of each character gets kicked up a notch, according to the rock-star logic of sequels.

When Woody Harrelson’s Merritt McKinney, the hypnotist in a pork-pie hat, reduces his targets to a putty-like trance, he now does it with even more smirky panache. Dave Franco’s sleight-of-hand artist Jack Wilder flips a deck of cards around like the Paganini of street showmanship, and Jesse Eisenberg, as group leader J. Daniel Atlas, exudes a newly understated confidence that looks great on him Lizzy Caplan as Lula, who gets right onto the film’s wavelength of gaga showmanship in a scene where, having snuck into Daniel’s apartment, she fakes her own death by guillotine (a startling visual effect) and just keeps on talking. That lets you know that she’s in the right place. The Horseman are a team, deeply loyal to each other, but they’re also rivals .

Our heroes, it turns out, have landed in Macau, where they’ve been recruited by Walter Mabry (Daniel Radcliffe), a smug mastermind who’s been hiding off the grid. He orders them to perform a do-or-die mission: They must steal a circuit known as “the stick,” which has the power to de-encrypt any computer program on earth. “Steal something,” whines Merritt, “for this narcissistic little man-boy?” The line is a compliment to Radcliffe’s performance.

 In “Now You See Me 2,” there is always more than meets the eye, maybe because the film itself never stops winking.

Warcraft

It is based on the Warcraft video game series and novels set in the world of Azeroth.



      Cast:-

Robert Kazinsky

Ruth Negga
Anna Galvin
Clancy Brown
Terry Notary
Dylan Schombing

Some people had hoped, after months of hype and the pedigree of director Duncan Jones.


Warcraft, which comes out June 10, is a whirlwind of CGI effects and snazzy costumes that never quite coalesces into a watchable film. Longtime fans of the series might get a kick out of seeing the likes of Medivh (Ben Foster) and Durotan (Toby Kebbell) played by Hollywood actors, but it’s tough to get invested in a movie that feels so soulless. Warcraft has very few redeeming qualities. The performances are mediocre, the writing is full of cliches, and the editing is confusing when it’s trying to be clever. (Both the orcs and humans speak real-life English, but the movie attempts to persuade us, by means of a clumsy transition halfway through the film, that the orcs are actually speaking their own language. It’s not very good.)
Yet I just couldn’t buy in. Maybe the premise was flawed from the start.Warcraft opens with a shot of the vicious orc Horde, all teeth and screams, as it introduces us to Durotan and his pregnant wife. In just a few minutes we’re zipping through so many cities—Ironforge, Stormwind, Dalaran—that even for a Warcraft buff it might be tough to keep things straight. 
Rather than give some breathing room to Durotan and his human counterpart, Anduin Lothar (Travis Fimmel), Warcraft insists on introducing character after character, none of them pleasant. There’s Callan (Burkely Duffield), Lothar’s plot device of a son. There’s the bumbling mage Khadgar (Ben Schnetzer), who is far more interesting in the games. There’s the Guardian Medivh, whose motives and actions are never quite clear. There’s a king, a queen, some knights. There are a bunch of orcs who get a lot of screen time that could’ve gone toward actual character development. There are too many characters, too many subplots, and not nearly enough reasons to care about them all.
 And then there’s Garona (Paula Patton), whose fangs are so utterly silly that they often distract from her performance, which is just as ridiculous. Warcraftdevotes many minutes to Garona: her enslavement at the hands of her own people; her snarling threats; her unconvincing romantic trist with the main character. Her character, a half-orc, half-human* warrior who seems destined to bring peace to the two races, is poorly crafted and kind of a drag to watch. A stronger actress could have helped made Garona more compelling, but with so many factors working against her, even that might not have worked. She is unabashedly dull.

Te3n


Te3n is an upcoming Indian thriller film written and directed by RibhuDasgupta.Amitabh Bachchan had revealed that the movie is an official remake of South Korean movie Montage for which copyrights were purchased by Sujoy Ghosh.



Cast:-
Amitabh Bachchan
Nawazuddin Siddiqui
VidyaBalan
SabyasachiChakrabarty
Padmavati Rao

The film is predictable, but can be watched for Amitabh and Nawazuddin's performances. Calling it a sensible film with a good climax, critics said that "Te3n" can be right choice this weekend.

Te3n has been adapted from the Korean thriller Montage with a few changes in the plot. It mainly revolves around the thin line between redemption and revenge and also relieving oneself of guilt for a crime that is unintentionally committed.

Amitabh Bachchan, who is otherwise known for his strong performances, nails the act of a feeble grandfather who dearly loved his grand-child and will not leave any stone unturned to seek justice for her. The film takes off rather slowly as we are introduced to John’s character and his wheel-chair borne wife.  His silences, his body language and the overall performance is bang on. Your heart goes out to his character instantly from the start.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui tries something different as he pulls off the role of an ex-cop turned Father. Eight years later, when a similar case repeats itself as another child is kidnapped, the officer in charge Sarita Sarkar (Vidya Balan) and Father Martin Das (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) who is a former cop, delve into both the cases.


Will John be able to nab the culprit 8 years later? Is the kidnapper for both the cases same?

Do Lafzon Ki Kahani

Do Lafzon Ki Kahaniis an upcoming Hindi film written by Girish Dhamija and directed by Deepak Tijori.




      Cast:-
RandeepHooda 
Kajal Aggarwal 

Actor-turned-filmmaker Deepak Tijori has directed films like Oops!, Fareb andTom Dick And Harry but none of them has impressed the audience or the critics.

Sadly, his latest venture, Do Lafzon Ki Kahani -- a love story starring Randeep Hooda and Kajal Aggarwal -- will join the bandwagon.

Storywise, the film has nothing new to offer in the romantic genre. It seems as if the director is stuck in the 1990s and has incorporated every cliched Bollywood element in his film.
While Do Lafzon Ki Kahani has good music and a terrific actor like Randeep, it doesn’t make up for the loopholes in the script.

Sooraj (Randeep) is a boxer who has retired from the profession due to a mishap. He now does three different jobs for a living.
His life changes when he meets the visually impaired Jenny (Kajal), a sprightly girl who loves talking. Their personalities are totally opposite and so, obviously, they end up falling for each other. After all, opposites attract!

With Jenny in his life, Sooraj decides to give boxing another chance so that he can have a normal life.But his plans change when he learns that he is partly responsible for Jenny's loss of sight. Sooraj now wants to make things right by helping Jenny see again.

The operation requires a lot of money but Sooraj is ready to go to any length for the love of his life.Will Sooraj succeed in helping Jenny? Will their love story have a happy ending? You will have to watch the film to find out but, trust me, it's not worth it.
