The Nice Guys

The Nice Guys is a smartly crafted buddy cop thriller.The crackling chemistry of the lead pair & a seemingly engaging plot makes this one a roll-kicking entertainer.Russel-Ryan Combo is indeed the biggest asset of this flick,they together delivers a kick-ass performance.Russel was required to be subtle throughout with Ryan providing the eccentric part.Angourie Rice delivers a fine performance,so do the other supporting actors.

Shane Black as the director did an impressive job,Being the maker of "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" & "Iron Man 3",he never disappointed in his third directorial venture.With the support of a well developed plot & neatly sketched characters,Shane Black has succeeded in giving the best output from it.Altogether,The Nice Guys is an absolute joy to watch.

Overall,The Nice Guys is a Smart Entertainer !

The Cokeville Miracle

The Cokeville Miracle is an average cinema at best.The central plot being based on a true story had all the elements to make it a completely engaging flick,but the amateurish making & shoddy technical quality made this an avg cinema on the whole.Performances of the lead cast were just limited to an okayish level,they couldn't rise above a particular level,Jasen Blade playing the lead has nothing much to do.

T.C Christinen's making is below par.it doesn't meet up the standards of a usual hollywood film,both in cinematic & technical quality.Vfx was sub-standard to be honest,even the bomb explosion scenes were loosely shot.The last 20 minutes were the only part where the film gained some momentum,it was nicely taken - a strong emotional content made it better & these parts made the cinema look avg on the whole.

Overall,The Cokeville Miracle is an Average Cinema !

Nerve

Nerve is a fast paced techno thriller which sums up as an easy one time watch.The basic premise was interesting - a game being the backdrop made it a lot more engaging.Emma Roberts doing the lead did a superb job,she was the soul of this film,charming & excellent performance.Dave Franco was ok,Others were fine.

Henry Joost - Ariel Schulman,the director duo managed to give a watchable film out of an interesting plot.The movie had a really good flow till the last 20 minutes,the end portions were way too predictable & was not worth the build-up.Some of the scenes were smartly taken,technically too - Nerve is good.Music is superb,the tracks in between the proceedings were too good.

Overall,Nerve is Watchable !

6/10

The Tall Man

The Tall Man is half-baked mystery drama.The movie doesn't rise above a mediocre level except for the neatly shot climax portions.The starting was superb giving some real hopes of an intriguing cinema,but halfway through the proceedings,it became preachy & cliched.Jessica Biel delivers an intense performance,her performance was indeed the saving grace at times.Supporting Cast doesn't have much to do.

Pascal Laugier as the director couldn't make this convincing nor engaging,the muddled up execution & the dark tone without any thrills made it boring at times.The only positive was the final 10 minutes,with a good narration,it ended on a decent note.


Overall,The Tall Man is a Mediocre Stuff !

5/10

Bad Moms

Bad Moms is a neatly executed comedy drama.The towering performance of the stellar cast,a really connecting plot & an extremely entertaining narration makes this a good watch.Mila Kunis is just fabulous,her charming screen presence along with her excellent performance made it superb,like always - she looked gorgeous.Kristen Bell & Kathryn Hann delivers smart performances,gives ample support to Mila.Others were fine.

Jon Lucas - Scott Moore,the director duo did an impressive job,they were in full control of things as the makers.The basic plot was wafer-thin as a short message,but their making was so good.Music is another strength,completely gelled with the proceedings.

Overall,Bad Moms is an Entertaining Watch !
