The Butterfly Effect 5:11 AM

This movie rightly obtains the "R" Rating because of the complex plot it contains. Not every person would understand this movie because as I mostly say, perceptions would vary, hence getting a different understanding of the story altogether. This flavor of this movie is something similar to that of Donnie Darko or Jacob's Ladder – A story with a very complex portal to a simple plot and a beautiful underlying meaning. Here the movie is something about "Trying to repair a morbid past for a pleasant future". The story is very intense and thrilling and keeps you engaged throughout. At times you would find yourself left in the dark (which you would eventually appreciate at the end of the movie). The story would indulge you and take you for a good trip (that’s ofcourse only if you want to get indulged) The ability of the director to materialize the idea is awesome, visually and mentally. Ashton Kutcher acted amazingly well in this movie. The message of the movie was amazing, a child's life is always tender and delicate. Every event has a huge impact at a later point of life.

As beautifully said - "Something as small as the flutter of a butterfly's wing can ultimately cause a typhoon halfway around the world." Every small thing in life matters.

The Road 1:59 PM

If you watch this movie with high expectations of action, thrills and dark humor, well you would be highly disappointed. This movie is a drama that explains mainly about two things that every person should have in life -
"Hope" and "Perseverance ". The environment is post-apocalyptic, a father and son travel in search of humanity and food with cannibals and bad climate slow them down. The movie tends to be a bit melodramatic and lacks to hit the spot in several ways. The depravity of Humans in Humanity was amazingly portrayed. The desperation of the protagonists, the absence of wildlife, the deserted lands and falling trees reminds me of how the world would look in the years to come. The Road serves as a good wake-up call to make us understand that being human is what will save humanity. The father and son amazingly depicted themselves as the torch-bearers of hope, giving in their fullest and not giving up. Viggo Mortensen as usual kept up to the expectations of amazing acting as a responsible caring Father of a dubious Son.
