Amazing Sunday, well spent with friends..
It was 6 O' Clock in the morning when the alarm sounded. I was irritated since it was Sunday and only because of my friends' coaxing had I made a plan to take a trip to Kolkata for watching two movies back to back. I did not know then that it was going to be so much worth it.
The 1st movie was Gravity. I won't call it a movie. It was rather an experience. It felt like literally being present in the hollow space with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. Their acting was amazing, so was the direction, 3D, cinematography, sound editing and the concept of the film is beyond my praises. I remember the last time when i got so much hang of a movie after seeing it in a theater. It was the Dark Knight Rises. Felt similar kick after watching this one. Took me literally several minutes to realize I'm back to the real world after the movie..Amazing..simply amazing..Every word spoken by George Clooney literally had such impact..

Not only me, even my friends
thought it's enough. Gravity was so awesome that the next movie won't be
able to match the kick of gravity. We were all so wrong. Captain
Phillips is what we saw next. Tom Hanks proved yet again that aging
doesn't depreciate the value of gold..He reminded me again of his genius
in Forest Gump, Philadelphia, Cast Away, etc. The man is a gem and so
is the movie. Amazing screenplay, direction, all round exceptional
performances from every one, and legendary performance from Tom Hanks.
The entire movie was awesome, but last half an hour proves, no one but
Tom Hanks could have played this role of Captain Phillips..We were
speechless seeing him. The hangover of gravity was not only removed
totally by Captain Phillips, but was rather replaced by its own kicks
and highs..
I am going to remember this Sunday forever, because
may be several times before I saw back to back movies in multiplexes,
but it's the 1st time that both turned out to be such extraordinary
films..I can't still believe my luck today..Thank you buddies..
