The Aryan Couple (2004)
Brilliant movie
I would rank this movie along with Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Bastards as one of the best war time movies. It was without doubt a thriller. You should however gloss over some liberties taken in the script related to knowledge of concentration camps, the camaraderie and parleying on equal terms with the Nazis etc., Every frame was nail baiting one. There were a lot of twists and turns throughout. The brutality of Nazi Germany is revealed without any gross exhibition. No Blood, no hanging, no bodies lying around. The movie begins with shots of the Auschwitz museum. It gradually catches pace keeping you engrossed throughout. I will watch this movie again after 6 months for its sheer adrenalin rush. There was this commentator who listed out a number of errors related to custom, wrong airplane. Come on guys, this is a movie. Allow the Director/Script Writer to take some liberty so that he can make the movie enjoyable. If you want 100 accuracy you need to watch a documentary not a fictional movie.
Prometheus (2012)
Poor Script
Brilliantly filmed but very poor script. There was no story. No Plot. The Special Effects cannot compensate for the illogical narration. The Scientists who explore the planet are no scientists. They are a bunch of irresponsible school children. They remove their helmet like teenagers would do to their clothes when they are hiking and find a beautiful lake. Would they? Smart ones will not. What if there is a Loch Ness monster or some other creature lurking in the depths. Besides removing their helmets in an alien planet to 'breathe in the fresh air' our Promotheus scientists poke their fingers into alien 'gel', try to act like pals with creatures they have never seen before. Should not a scientist be extra cautious when dealing with creatures whose nature, "attitude", habits or whatever is not known or if there is no record? How could these scientists attempt to become friendly as if they are trying to feed a deer in your back yard park. Bah,Bah. Like that creature in Jurassic Park that opens its wings and fangs this creature reveals "its true colors" sending our two idiotic scientists to their grave. There is that scene wherein Elizabeth has a major abdominal operation in "Manual" mode. Moments after the operation, after her muscles are stapled she is seen walking out of the operation theater. When did the healing occur? Ridiculous scenes like this abound in this movie. But in spite of the stupidity you will not have the urge to leave the theater because of the special effects which, to admit, is spectacular. However I will not watch this movie again because of the plot (or lack of it).
