Paddington
Paddington is a 2014 comedy film, directed by Paul King
and written by King and Hamish McColl and produced by David Heyman. The film is
based on Paddington Bear by Michael Bond who receives an appearance credit in
the movie as the Kindly Gentleman. The film stars Hugh Bonneville, Sally
Hawkins, Julie Walters, Jim Broadbent, Peter Capaldi and Nicole Kidman, with
Ben Whishaw as the voice of Paddington.
Like Paddington Bear himself, this new release is cute,
mostly well-mannered and just a bit off-center. In director Paul King’s
adaptation of Michael Bond’s stories, a clever introduction gets us off to a
good start. We learn of Paddington’s early years in Darkest Peru.
Circumstances, and a suitcase packed with marmalade, bring our
computer-generated hero (voiced by Ben Whishaw) to London in search of a new
home. He finds one with the Browns, though grumpy Mr. Brown (Hugh Bonneville)
insists the arrangement is only temporary. Kindly Mrs. Brown (Sally Hawkins)
and the children (Madeleine Harris, Samuel Joslin) have other plans.
So, alas, does Millicent Clyde (Nicole Kidman), an evil
museum curator with an obsessive interest in taxidermy. Even as Paddington
tries to adjust to his new surroundings, she’s secretly planning to place him
in a far more permanent residence. The film then moves towards an interesting
climax.
The Imitation Games
The Imitation Game is a 2014 historical thriller film
about British mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst and pioneering computer
scientist Alan Turing. Turing was a key figure in cracking Nazi Germany's
Enigma code, which helped the Allies win the Second World War, only to later be
criminally prosecuted for his homosexuality. The film stars Benedict
Cumberbatch as Turing, and is directed by Morten Tyldum, with a screenplay by
Graham Moore loosely based on the biography Alan Turing: The Enigma by Andrew
Hodges.
In terms of historical accuracy, while the broad outline
of Turing's life as depicted in the film is true, a number of historians have
stated that elements within it represent distortions of what actually happened,
especially in terms of Turing's work at Bletchley Park during the war and his
relationship with friend and fellow code breaker Joan Clarke.
The film shows Alan Turing and his team of code-breakers
in Hut 8 racing against time as they attempt to break Nazi Germany's Enigma
code at Britain's top-secret Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley
Park during the Second World War. The group of scholars, mathematicians,
linguists, chess champions and intelligence officers have a powerful ally in
Prime Minister Winston Churchill who authorises the provision of any resource
they require.
The film spans the key periods of Turing's life: his
unhappy teenage years at boarding school; the triumph of his secret wartime
work on the revolutionary electro-mechanical bombe, which was capable of
breaking 3,000 Enigma-generated naval codes a day; and the tragedy of his
post-war decline following his conviction for gross indecency, a criminal
offence stemming from his admission of maintaining a homosexual relationship.

Basu, Karan Singh Grover in pivotal roles. It marks the film debut of Grover.

directed by Ritesh Menon and produced by Prakash Jha. The film stars Swanand
Kirkire, Shilpa Shukla, Zachary Coffin, Nora Fatehi, Kushal Punjabi Jugnu

ride begins with the Wealthy Mr. Beri slipping into his third Coma. His four
estranged children have to make it back home to be there while their father
“hopefully” breathes his last, leaving behind his huge estate in the mountains.
Pawan beri (Swanand Kirkire) the oldest child of Mr.
& Mrs Beri is a hustler who is in big trouble with a local mafia don turned
Politician. Rude brash and arrogant, he looks at everything from his own
crooked view. Archana Beri - (Shilpa Shukla) is the wannabe socialite who
wanted to participate in the Miss India contest but she got married against her
will at a young age; now she is desperate to enter the Mrs. India contest. She
is bitter towards the entire world including her family. She bullies her meek

Amy (Nora Fatehi) who meets the family for the first time. He pretends to be a

light boy. Abhay Beri/ Chotu (Siddharth Sharma) is the youngest in the family.
Not much is known about his present status. Years ago he was sent to New
Zealand to study, but never returned... well until now!
Along with the four siblings are a bunch of other unique
and nutty characters like a village item girl, an extra slow family lawyer and
three goofy investigators. The chaos begins when they discover that to open the
will of their father they need to get ‘Chotu’ married. Set in a lush green,
picturesque hill station, this story is about the dysfunctional 'Beri' family.
A mad-caper but true to life, hilarious but emotional, fast paced yet heart-warming
story of a family estranged for years, brought together by greed but eventually
finding each other, finding the meaning in being a family.

The Theory of Everything
The Theory of Everything is a 2014 British biographical
romantic drama film directed by James Marsh and adapted by Anthony McCarten
from the memoir Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen by Jane Wilde
Hawking, which deals with her relationship with her ex-husband, theoretical
physicist Stephen Hawking, his diagnosis of motor neuron disease, and his
success in physics.
The film stars Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones with
Charlie Cox, Emily Watson, Simon McBurney, Christian McKay, and David Thewlis
featured in supporting roles.
The Theory of Everything is based on – “Travelling to
Infinity: My Life with Stephen” – by his wife, Jane Hawking. As this is as much
about Jane (Felicity Jones) as it’s about Stephen (Eddie Redmayne) and as much
about their relationship as it’s about his complex theories, the film opens
with them meeting. It was at Cambridge in 1963, where he referred to himself as
a cosmologist who was looking for answers about the universe, and going for a
PhD in physics. She was studying arts and poetry. They first catch each other’s
eye at a school dance, and seem to be equally smitten. She’s very religious,
and he’s a scientist. As he explains it, scientists “don’t believe in a
supernatural creator.” Tragedy is waiting around a corner. Shortly after his
mentor Professor Sciama (David Thewlis) brings Stephen to an old school lab
where, he tells him, “Rutherford split the atom,” we first see a slight shake
of Stephen’s hand, and then a small stumble of his foot. All the while the
professor pushes him deeper into the mathematics of different theories, and he
and Jane grow closer, and the camera keeps staring into his wide-eyed,
wondering face, he’s slowly losing control of his body.
A visit to a doctor reveals it to be something that’s
causing gradual muscle delay. It’s ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease. The doctor
calmly and with no emotion explains to Stephen that the average life span after
diagnosis is two years, then adds, with an air of hopeless defeat, “I’m so
sorry.”
From that point on, no matter where this story goes, and
it goes in some unexpected directions.
American Sniper
American Sniper is a 2014 American biographical war drama
film directed by Clint Eastwood and written by Jason Hall. It is based on Chris
Kyle's autobiography American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal
Sniper in U.S. Military History and stars Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller with
Luke Grimes, Kyle Gallner, Sam Jaeger, Jake McDorman and Cory Hardrict in supporting
roles.
As Clint Eastwood's "American Sniper" opens, a
tense, sweat-stained Bradley Cooper is ensconced in his Middle East sniper's
nest. His finger is poised to pull the trigger as he peers through the scope of
his rifle.
On the other end: an unsuspecting Iraqi woman and child
who may or may not be carrying some sort of explosive -- and no small amount of
ill intent -- as a column of U.S. troops heads down the street and in their
direction.
The obvious but anguished question for Cooper's
character: to kill or not to kill.
It's an intense, high stakes scene -- hard-pounding,
adrenaline-generating and entirely captivating -- and one that offers an
insightful peek inside the pressure-cooker in which American service members
operate on the far-from-conventional battlefields of modern warfare.
The film is a personality study, exploring the psyche of
men who do horrifying things not because they want to, but because they feel
they have to -- and then exploring the significant emotional fallout of that
decision.
In this case, that man is Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, the
dead-eye Texan with the distinction of being the U.S. military's most lethal
sniper. Rather than patrolling Dodge City or Tombstone, Ariz., his frontier is
Fallujah, the dusty Mideast deathtrap where he served part of his four tours of
duty in the Iraq War.
It's there where his skills made him a legend. To the
enemy, however, Kyle was a crusader, a near-mythical terror who would become
the most wanted man in the country.
"American Sniper" is based largely on the
memoirs of Kyle, which was written before the most significant and
heartbreaking detail of his story played out.
