Hanuman Vs Mahiravana
The
movie Hanuman Vs Mahiravana is an animation film directed by Dr Ezhil Vendan
and written by Narayanan Vaidyanathan with cast consisting of Lucas Shuneman,
Solas B Lalgee, Shudeep and others.
The
quest to rescue princess Sita is coming to an end as Rama and his army of
monkeys make their final push for victory against the demon king Ravana of
Lanka. In the ensuing battle, Rama defeats and disarms Ravana but magnanimously
spares his life. That night, Ravana unleashes his most powerful ally; his
brother Mahiravana, a dark and powerful sorcerer who rules over the Underworld.
Mahiravana's shadow casts a blanket of deception over Rama's army and the
unseen enemy captures Rama and Lakshmana. Mahiravana intends to kill the two
princes at daybreak to fulfill a prophecy that will make him invincible. Can
Rama's friend Hanuman save them before it is too late? Hanuman is the superhero
of the epic Ramayana. The rescue of Rama and Lakshmana from the clutches of
Mahiravana is one of the most thrilling episodes from the epic. The film drops
you straight at the decisive battle of the Ramayana. Rama is slowly emerging as
the winner and Ravana is staring at defeat. At this point of time he thinks of
introducing his step brother Mahiravana into the melee. Mahiravana was Ravana’s
step brother and a master of the occult. His ambition was to become the
greatest sorcerer in the world. Through his mystical powers, he’s soon able to
capture of Rama and Lakshmana. He spirits the two away into his underground
world and hopes to sacrifice them to the goddess Mahamaya to gain
never-seen-before powers. Hanuman travels there and battles Mahiravana’s
soldiers to rescue the brothers. The plot isn’t restricted to that but treats
us to a backstory regarding Mahiravana as well.
Isle of Dogs
Isle
of Dogs is a 2018 stop-motion animated film written, produced and directed by
Wes Anderson. Set in a dystopian near-future Japan, the film follows a group of
dogs who helps a young boy searching for his dog after the whole species is
banished to an island after a canine-flu outbreak. The ensemble voice cast
includes Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Jeff Goldblum, Bob
Balaban, Greta Gerwig, Frances McDormand, Courtney B. Vance, Fisher Stevens,
Harvey Keitel, Liev Schreiber, Scarlett Johansson, Tilda Swinton, F. Murray
Abraham, Frank Wood, Kunichi Nomura and Yoko Ono. A US-German co-production,
Isle of Dogs was produced by Indian Paintbrush and Anderson's own production
company, American Empirical Pictures.
"Isle
of Dogs" is brought to life by the voices of a number of Anderson's
regular repertory players. First and foremost, though, is young Koyu Rankin,
who provides the voice of the film's scrappy main character. His name is Atari
Kobayashi and he lives in a near future in which -- following an outbreak of a
sickness known as "snout fever" -- Japan's dog-despising leadership
decrees that all pooches be exiled to an island previously used solely for
trash disposal. That leaves the canine cast-offs to form flea-bitten packs --
which function as their own little dystopian societies -- as they fight over
maggoty morsels to fill their bellies. Then, one day, a small aircraft
crash-lands on Trash Island. Aboard it is young Atari, who is determined to
find and rescue Spots, his exiled family pet. He'd better act quickly, though.
Hot on Atari's tail are security forces bent on "rescuing" him. Meanwhile,
back on the Japanese mainland, the dogged student journalists at a local school
have uncovered information that could change everything - for them, for Atari
and for the dogs of Trash Island. If, that is, they can get anyone to listen to
them. What follows is a twisting and sharply written ticking-clock adventure.
The
film has Bryan Cranston as Chief, Koyu Rankin as Atari Kobayashi, Edward Norton
as Rex, Bob Balaban as King, Bill Murray as Boss, Jeff Goldblum as Duke, Kunichi
Nomura as Mayor Kobayashi, Akira Takayama as Major Domo, Greta Gerwig as Tracy
Walker, Frances McDormand as Interpreter Nelson, Akira Ito as Professor
Watanabe, Scarlett Johansson as Nutmeg, Harvey Keitel as Gondo, F. Murray
Abraham as Jupiter, Yoko Ono as Assistant Scientist Yoko Ono, Tilda Swinton as
Oracle, Ken Watanabe as Head Surgeon, Mari Natsuki as Auntie, Fisher Stevens as
Scrap, Nijiro Murakami as Editor Hiroshi, Liev Schreiber as Spots, Courtney B.
Vance as the narrator, Yojiro Noda as News Anchor, Frank Wood as
Simul-Translate Machine, Roman Coppola as Igor, Anjelica Huston as Mute Poodle
and Kara Hayward as Peppermint.
