There are so many movies I have seen and liked and then forgot to add on facebook or download them so it seems I can't remember the complicated names or english versions. Still there are few I could grab from my husband's facebook page. Thanks to him for some of these flicks.
1) Bliss aka Mutluluk : This movie is about a girl who is raped and then as they do in muslim countries, she is sentenced to death. A guy is asked to take her away to some place far and kill her but instead he starts loving her and for a change there is a happy ending. It somehow shows that its society that gives rise to crimes and if given a choice no man will ever kill another. Its all peer pressure and spineless pervert oldies.
2) Haute Tension : The ending isn't totally unpredictable but not so disappointing too. It has blood, gore and new ways of killing brutally. It is not for the weak hearted people. Fast paced movie with some girl on girl action.
3) Pan's Labyrinth : This movie has magical creatures, some magical plants too i guess. It is one of those childhood fantasy movies where you wish your years of growing up had this much drama. The story is good enough for me. Some creepy weird scenes too. But overall it is good.
4) Oldboy : Oldboy is about a guy who was imprisoned for 15 years and then he is released, he meets this girl as soon he is out and when he finds out who the captor was and why he subjected him to this torture, it all falls into place and the whole movie seems worth giving time to. Some stupid bollywood producer copied the story and made it horribly lame. Anyways original one is awesome.
5) I saw the Devil : And I saw this awesome movie. The movie is stretched a bit at some places and somewhere it shows some signs of bollywood effects. Its has a lesson that those who love to afflict pain on others feel nothing at all. It is about an evil guy who rapes, a guy whose pregnant wife is raped and then after some foolish attempts of grabbing him while the rapist is in action and getting some people killed, the vindictive cop guy finally kills this devil. It could have been better. But this version isn't that bad too. It is violent and gory.
6) The Last House On The Left : Again a movie based on revenge. How a father would revenge his daughter. What happens when you hurt someone's kids, what a doctor could do to the hooligans. It is not one of those lame movies where victims just succumb and accept defeat easily. Here they fight back and justice is served cruelly to brutal criminals.
6) The Devil's Backbone : An orphanage with some corrupt workers and innocent children. A new kid gets to the orphanage and discovers the dark secrets of wandering ghost child and plots going on against the management. I have described it in a boring way but movie is way too interesting. It has its own horror and charm.
7) The Warrior's Way : This movie has a cute child with top warrior. He moves to a city with different kind of people, like in a circus. The movie has less action scenes, the story is pretty simple too but when the action comes, it is full fledged ninja kungfu one. You will never regret watching this one.
8) Sympathy For Mr. Vengeance : Sympathy seriously, it will keep pouring in. Whosoever is in charge loses it to someone else and unexpected turn comes into play. The movie keeps you hooked till the end. Heh not all people are born lucky i guess. The story is full of twists and emotions.
9) Apocalypto : This movie was coming on some movie channel and my husband was like, ohh this is a good one, turns out it has an english producer but to add originality the producer had them talk in the different language. The whole tribe is attacked by another strong violent tribesmen and they take men for sacrifice. But one guy escapes and saves his family that includes pregnant wife and child.
10) Grave of the Fireflies : This is an animated movie. A brother takes care of his small sister in times of war. As they do, the sister's character is immensely cute and brother is responsible enough to be with her even after her death. The movie is intense and it is well made. Sorry for some spoiler information throughout the list.
