I watched Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted couple of weeks back at Liberty Cinema at Kollpity. Even-though the story was bit predictable and common it was still enjoyable. For me Madagascar was never about a story but if was about the animals and the monkeys and the penguins.

Around this time of last year, Sri Lanka did not have any 3D movie theater. If you wanted to have a 3D movie experience, only choice was to go for a movie while in another county.

Water; Earth; Fire; Air; Long ago four nations lived in harmony. Then everything changed when fire nation attacked. But to really foul things up, Shyamalan made a movie out of it. This is old news. But I’ll post this anyway to release my anger. According to AVATAR (Not the movie) it’s not a good thing to keep inside • Read More »

Sometimes you go in to the cinema with lots of expectations and come back disappointed and feeling like you have been fooled by a trailer that looks far better than the movie. Well this Saturday (2009-04-17) was one of those days for me. After watching Green Zone trailer, I went to see the movie with • Read More »

Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud.
