Review:
Here is another creative work from the mind of Tim Burton, The Nightmare Before Christmas. This is a Stop Motion musical fantasy film and it takes place in fantasy world of Halloween Town where Jack Skellington opens a portal to Christmas Town. Halloween town is a very scary and creepy place where all you find is monsters, vampires, werewolves, witches, goblins, ghouls and all these deformed creatures. Jack Skellington is tired and bored with the same Halloween celebration every year around same time and while wondering here and there through the forest with his ghost dog, finds a place where cluster of trees have doors representing certain holiday. He is drawn to the Christmas portal where he visits and gets really amazed by the whole idea, he comes back and explain it to the people. Everyone take what Jack says in wrong way, comparing or mixing it with their own Halloween. Jack does several experiments in the lab to understand everything but just can't. He is just obsessed with this idea and decides to play Santa Clause or Sandy Claws. He gives everyone a task to do and the trio of Mischievous children goes to bring Santa Claus as to take over Christmas this year. Sally, who is a doll created by the mad scientist has feelings for Jack, one day she gets this premonition of Jack's plan ending badly. She tries to tell him but he instead assigns her the duty of his Santa's costume making. And as the movie continues you will see his plan and then the outcome which is a one big adventure.

This is definitely one of the best animated movies ever. Quite entertaining, enjoyable and lovable. The whole look is quite creepy and dark and this whole Halloween Town and Christmas Town think was a really impressive and smart idea. It is very original movie and visually delightful stunning piece of work. The stop motion technique really works here. This movie definitely takes you to a new world as it is purely filled with imagination that will impress both kids and adults alike. I for the first time saw this movie as my Halloween Marathon this year and it definitely was worth it. That whole merge of Christmas and Halloween really works when Jack himself tries to merge it but ends up messing everything up.

It has wonderful score and i really loved all the songs and the performances were really brilliantly put together. The character developments were very creatively done and also the Art department did their best work. Plot was quite fun and thrilling. From the very first scene, it takes you over with its spooky and different atmosphere and you really begin to experience this whole new world quite easily. Everything is so perfectly done in the movie. Some really funny and thrilling actions scenes are there with wonderful music, a little romance, some scary spooky stuff and the cheerful holiday themes makes it one of the most original work i have ever seen.

Jurassic Park 1993,  PG-13)
Jurassic Park
Visual effects would never have broken through without this movie, which is Spielberg's best adventure since the first "Indiana Jones" movie. Jurassic Park is probably the best 'creature feature'/'Blockbuster' since Jaws, which was obviously bought to us by the same beard. Spielberg doing what he does best with brilliant special effects that are still as good if not better than in recent films and a fantastic cast. One of my favourite cinema experiences! This was the first big,realistic looking CGI film and that was the big draw to this film upon release, but it contains an interesting story that keeps you in the film longer than computerized eye candy ever would. It's the typical Spielberg adventure tale that puts everyone in peril, yet everything is alright in the end tied up in a nice and neat John Williams score. Jurassic Park is not an intelligent film that comments seriously about cloning and the dangers of human tampering with movie nature, though the themes are bought up occasionally in the film. The film IS however, a thrilling ride of the lines of man vs monsters. Special effects are superb: the dinosaurs are living, breathing creatures that still convince 15 years later. Director Spielberg superbly handles the action and Crichton's script skillfully builds up the tension before heading into all out action, thrills and scares. Less successfully are the performances from the human cast with Sam Neil and Laura Dern in particular phoning in their performances while Joe Mazzello's uncanny ability keep surviving after several normally fatal situations, is a tad ridiculous to say the least. However these are relatively minor flaws, because whether on the big screen, or on video, Jurassic Park delivers amply as a thrilling blockbuster. love it always.

Dazed and Confused 1993,  R)
Dazed and Confused
Like George Lucas' American Graffiti, Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused is an affectionate look at the youth culture of a bygone era. While Lucas took aim at the conservative 1950's, Linklater jumps ahead a generation to the bicentennial year of 1976 to celebrate the joys of beer blasts, pot smoking and Frampton Comes Alive. Set on the last day of the academic year, the film follows the random activities of a sprawling group of Texas high schoolers as they celebrate the arrival of summer, their paths variously intersecting at a freshmen hazing, a local pool parlor and finally at a keg party.

i saw this movie a few days back and i really liked it, it first of all is one of the best films based on the 70's era high school life. you just love it. movie is funny and well made. you see all the good old fashioned things they do and you just wish you were there, the are so full of life and joyous and don't care what is going on around them just busy in their own life. all the beers and drugs and stoning and bars and girls and the ragging and what not. movie is enjoyable in a strange way.

Direction and writing of this movie is good. cinematography and other technical things are good. acting i must say is a let down a little bit, i mean you don't notice their acting that much because first there are so many characters and it is just a high school movie showing different type of students in it. cast is so huge, you will recognize them easily, some of them have made them big time here now. they look good and funny in those costumes and get ups. cast include Jason London, Wiley Wiggins, Rory Cochrane, Milla Jovovich, Joey Lauren Adams , Marissa Ribisi , Adam Goldberg , Anthony Rapp , Sasha Jenson , Parker Posey , Matthew McConaughey , Ben Affleck , Michelle Burke , Cole Hauser , Jason Smith and who not. this movie is very interesting to watch it is not bad at all. they show just a night partying for the rest of the part and you will love it. story is very simple. Recommended.
