The Post – Enthralling Engrossing Entertaining

Steven Spielberg’s posts a great cinema on the celluloid not just by bringing the era alive but also giving you goose bumps on how journalism can evolve and create a history out of the history.

The Post is the classic story of American Journalism that includes the stellar actors Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep. Meryl Streep is brilliant in her act and shines with her sheer performance playing Katharine Graham. Tom Hanks plays Ben The Editor and his act is class apart too. He is always at the ease of his act shining in his performance.

Based on the true story of the year 1971, where Media roars and tries to bring the house down of the Then President Nixon, exposing the situation US government on their take during the Vietnam war. Right journalism is nothing but ringing in the better society. The Post does that. The people involved do that, inspired by true events, Steven Spielberg gives you the drama you become part of. Nail biting decision makings makes you feel part of the drama making you wait to hear “Go Ahead” that becomes your inner voice too.

The film is not just a visual delight it is intellect delight too. For the validation of facts, one may have to google out some history on the subject, otherwise The Post leaves a mark as a great Enthralling Engrossing Entertainer this weekend from the west inspired by true events.

Verdict: Gold****

Jumanji – Welcome to the Jungle – A Fun Game Ride!!!
Jake Kasdan the director of Jumanji sucks you into the game along with their key characters and you are there experiencing their adventure. With your 3D glasses on Jumanji is indeed a ride you should be on this weekend.

Dwayne Johnson does it again with his sheer charisma of being strong and vulnerable playing his part well alongside the other cast that includes Jack Black, Karen Gillan, kevin Hart and Nick jones. Apart from Nick Jones the four characters are on detention in their school and are on imposition when they end up coming across the cartridge video game “Jumanji” and get sucked into the game with the choice of their characters. This is when you get into the game, there is this Jungle Jumanji that is cursed and this A Team is given a task in hand to save Jumanji from the curse by placing a shimmering stone back on Giant Panther that’s the end of game, if the task is not achieved it will be end of their lives in Jumanji.

The execution of the game is simple yet brilliant, as and when they move they realize their strengths, weaknesses coming alive adding up a fun element. Each one has 3 lives kind of life lines to risk their lives and comeback to each other. The mission wants them all to be together and trust each other. This is where they pass on the capsule of moral message to have trust in your peers and stay together no matter what. This is what they do and together they accomplish the task.

The film is quite decent on scale and has some mind-blowing scenes be it action or humor Jumanji has all the adventure. It keeps you at the edge of your seat when Rhino’s are chasing the helicopter. It makes you go nuts with their conversation on taking a leak. The camaraderie of the characters their conversation and challenges they face  together what makes this ride a great watch.

Go get sucked into the Jumanji adventure.

Verdict: Silver Plus 3.5*s
