Weekend Drama

Well, I finally got down and decided to watch two movies that I had been waiting to watch for a while. Both been more of a Drama and long, I took my chances.

The First one was Munich. Though I knew the story and seen lot of documentaries on this, I really wanted to watch the masterpiece created one of the successful directors in Hollywood, Steven Spielberg. The story is about the events following up the massacre of Israeli Athletes by Black September Organization. It depicts how a worker of mossad and few other men kill the people responsible for the massacre. The movie had been shown well, though some parts of the movie remain a bit obscure as it does not show few details of the plot clearly. The main pain I faced watching this was that I had to watch the movie literally twice, not because I did not understand, but the movie was so long that I fell asleep. Though I have been trained from my childhood to watch 3hour length movies, It is a different thing watching an English movie so long. It was not long before I had fallen asleep watching "The Good Sheppard", when I woke up the movie was still in the same scene. The movie was longer than or at least equal to a Bollywood movie for god sake. But anyways other than that the movie was a great. This was the first time I have seen Eric Bana in a leading role, and he was good.

The Second Movie, I watched was another classic movie from a great director Stanley Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange". I have had few attempts to watch this movie before but never got past the first 20minutes because I found the movie a bit too shady. The movie plot is about a boy Alex who is a hooligan with three friends of his. He leads his group with all kinds of crime committed. But during a robbery he is betrayed by his friends and caught. The story then revolves around his life in the correction facility and how the government finds permanent cure to criminals, for which Alex is the guinea pig.

I would not want to spoil the full story by giving away the full plot. I like movies with narration in them and this definitely did not disappoint me. It is a classic movie; the depiction of the characters and situations is great!

Busy week ahead, hope I can catch more good movies during the weekend.
