The Death of Superman - My View


One can’t just start writing about everything he wishes to or wants to. You need to be in a groove to do it and to be in the groove you need the content to push you into it. I have watched four movies this week and really wanted to write about at least two of them. However, things catch up and we never get a chance to write. Today it was completely different from where I couldn’t stop myself writing after seeing something, I love very much which was also presented in a perfect way.

The movie is based on the comic of the same name which was a three-part series. However, the animation movie is made in two parts. The part one of the books and the movie focuses on Doomsday and Superman battle and its eventual ending. The movie also closely focuses on the relationship between Louis and Superman and to be honest it was beautiful. The main plot is about stopping the killing machine Doomsday from destroying all lives on Earth and what Superman and the JL team have to go through in achieving it. 


After a long time, we are treated to visualize a full and full action and complete entertainment movie from DC animation without leaving any stones unturned. A perfect movie covering all bases of actions and emotions like fight, anger, love, friendship, fun, joke and sacrifice. The action is heavy dose but very entertaining to the core. You don’t get a chance to blink that’s how engaging it is. However, during the fight sequence, the director has beautifully added many sequences which show what kind of a human Superman is. Actually, this strongly establishes a bonding between Superman and us. The real power of Superman is not his superpowers but his golden heart, unconditional love towards the humans and his closed loved ones. The director has established this part beautifully in the movie which is why in the end one might not be able to hold their tears off.

An interesting coincidence to point here is the original comic was created as Superman sales were down and they wanted to revive the sales and interest on Superman back.  They also wanted to establish that Superman is not an invincible person and he has opponents who can match and overpower him in battle. If you watch closely, more or less the current scenario is too on the same line in the movie part. Last few animation movies were not satisfying and in the movieverse, Superman was shown as an invincible person. I see this more as a revive and limelight back event which the DC team have pulled it off beautifully.


After a long time, a heart touching and action-packed movie which almost brought me to tears. DC always nails with its animation movies. However, even by their standards, this one was a brilliant one after a long time.

All DC fans don't miss this gem.

Vikram Vedha - My View

Vikram Vedha is a movie which shouldn't be missed. I don't remember how many times I have started a movie with such positive quote but I am I am happy this one start on the good note. Not only my view but the movie too starts out on the good positive note. The directors clearly make the audience to prepare for the movie from the movie title to the title cards. The plot of the story is Vedha who is a gangster presents puzzles to Vikram the police officer. How Vikram solves the puzzles and what it leads to is the rest of the story. My friend Sathish always use to say this (a director) half of the movie is done when the casting is done, The movies perfection and satisfying performance is due to the perfect casting, Right from the leads to the support characters all are cast perfectly and all have delivered a commanding performance. The sharp dialogues, BGM and excellent shots all through the movie are a huge plus for the movie. The first half was super fast and you ...

Sing (2016) - My View

Movies give an array of feelings and experiences to us. One such experience is movies that make us travel to the world where we can meet our inner child in us. This is the world where we can laugh out loud, shed our tears without thinking about anything and be as we wish to be. And in this, we sing out loud and tap our feet with the songs that go around. The movie is about few animals and their dreams in the singing world. Within few minutes into the movie, we believe that all animals can live together in a house surrounded by human inventions and they can sing and interact just like humans. The whole movie team wins there, the moment, we start to believe this world and get into it. The story happens in the Anthropomorphism world. The story is about a Koala (Buster) who wants to become successful in the show business and his journey towards achieving it. He has an Iguana as assistant and Sheep friend who are with him for support. After several acts resulting in failures as the la...

Baahubali 2: The Conclusion - My View

Movie is about the experience which makes us travel into a different world. We often dream and we never think about any logic or look for flaws in it. We travel and experience the dream. It is the experience that's what matters. This movie gives that experience. Bahubali has its flaws but the experience it offers makes us go over it and cherish the movie. The experience we live in is on a different scale where you applause for many scenes and when the movie ends you can't stop from giving a good applause to it. And when you realise it's not only you who is applauding but many others along with you then you are all together in a different kind of feel. The feel you are not alone. If the first part was about son the second part is about dad. This part says who Bahubali was and how he lost his powers and does his son gets to the power or not. The performance from the actors is simply superb. Even the word superb doesn't justify for all their effor...
