Oh boy, this was even more boring than the first three parts. Here the Shark comes for revenge, Oh man I can't take this Jaws stuff no more. Now I will not watch any fifth part, is there's one.

Dominion: Prequel to the Exorcist (2005): Do not watch

Posted by maneesh On December - 4 - 2010

Cast: Stellan Skarsgard
Gabriel Mann

This movie was like the same as Exorcist: The Beginning. This is getting boring, I don't think the exorcist movie requires many prequels. I will not recommend to watch this one.

Full Metal Jacket (1987): Great war movie: Must Watch

Posted by maneesh On December - 2 - 2010

Cast: Matthew Modine
Adam Baldwin
Vincent D'Onofrio
R. Lee Ermey

No special star cast but the story is simply great. It shows the training of Vietnam veterans and how they fought. The training was done by Ronald Lee Ermey. Ronald was a real (retired) U.S. Marine Corps drill instructor. The training is the heart and soul of the movie. In some places you will laugh your heart out. A must watch.

Cuba Gooding, Jr

This is a great drama movie. The movie is about a novelist who is suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder. The movie goes around Jack Nicholson and he has acted brilliantly as usual. The movie won 2 academy awards: Best Actor in a Leading Role: Jack Nicholson and Best Actress in a Leading Role: Helen Hunt
