Beauty And The Beast

Beauty and the Beast (French: La Belle et la Bête) is a Franco-German romantic fantasy film based on the traditional fairy tale of the same name by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve. Directed and co-written by Christophe Gans, the film stars Vincent Cassel and Léa Seydoux.
The film has an interesting story. An unexpected romance blooms after the the youngest daughter of a merchant who has fallen on hard times offers herself to the mysterious beast to which her father has become indebted.
Most viewers know the story by heart, but Gans' version at least starts with a different take: a narrator reciting the tale of a widow merchant (Andre Dussollier), father of six, whose riches were jeopardized by a shipwreck that forced him to move to the countryside. While his jeering older daughters (Audrey Lamy, Sara Giraudeau) ceaselessly complain about their dwindled status, the youngest and most innocent among them, Beauty (Léa Seydoux), is the only child her father can rely on — especially after he's beholden to a strange Beast (Vincent Cassel) who lords over a nearby magical kingdom.

John Wick

John Wick is a 2014 American action thriller film directed by Chad Stahelski and written by Derek Kolstad. The film stars Keanu Reeves in the eponymous role. Featuring the title character attacking agents of the Russian mafia in the United States, the movie has received generally positive critical reviews.
Keanu Reeves is back and this time, his revenge mode is on. Following the genre in which he is widely popular, which is action, Keanu Reeves definitely brings out the best in ‘John Wick’. He plays the role of an ex-assassin who is living a peaceful life. But some events make him take up the assassin’s job once again and he decides to take back whatever is taken from him
Thus the former hitman John Wick (Keanu Reeves) comes out of retirement to track down the gangsters who took everything from him. John Wick is a hitman who has reformed his life after marrying Helen (Bridget Moynahan). When Helen dies, he is plunged deep into depression. His wife’s last gift to him, a beagle puppy named Daisy, is the only thing that gets him out of bed every day. Iosef Tarasov (Alfie Allen), the son of Wick’s former boss Viggo (Michael Nyqvist), breaks into Wick’s home, beats him bloody, steals his car, and kills Daisy. The enraged Wick sets out to settle accounts. The movie then moves towards an interesting climax.

Boyhood

Boyhood is a 2014 American coming-of-age drama film written and directed by Richard Linklater and starring Patricia Arquette, Ellar Coltrane, Lorelei Linklater and Ethan Hawke. The film shows the growth of the young boy and his sister to adulthood.
The film charts Mason’s journey into adolescence as the boy literally grows up on screen before the audience’s eyes. The film follows the growth of Mason Evans Jr. (Ellar Coltrane) as he transforms from a small boy to a young man.

Filmed over 12 years with the same cast, Richard Linklater's Boyhood is a groundbreaking story of growing up as seen through the eyes of a child named Mason (Ellar Coltrane), who literally grows up on screen before our eyes. Starring Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette as Mason's parents and newcomer Lorelei Linklater as his sister Samantha, Boyhood charts the rocky terrain of childhood like no other film has before and is both a nostalgic time capsule of the recent past and an ode to growing up and parenting.
