A bunch of movies from various genres awaits the audience on the 7th and 9th of June. Here's our weekly guide to help you plan your weekend at the movies.
This weekend comes with a mixed bag of movies from various genres. Here is a list of the upcoming Hollywood and Bollywood movies that are set to release this week in India
AFTER EARTH
The Smith family comes together to recreate Night Shymalan's magic in 'After Earth'. The movie is worth a watch for all science fiction lovers. It is based on a space expedition of a father and son who bond through catastrophic experiences in their journey.
This movie seems thrilling and fully loaded with the Will Smith sort of action.
Why you should go?
If you loved 'The Karate Kid', then you must go see a grown up Jaden. If you are a fan of Will Smith's action and charm and if Night Shyamalan's movies are a must watch for you, then you should be there!
Why you shouldn't?
If movies on scientology bore you. And if you're going for Will Smith, then you should know that he is not the lead, it's his son Jaden. The Guardian says that the movie “is not resonating with US audiences”, lets see if scores successfully among us.
Director: M. Night Shyamalan
Cast: Jaden Smith, Will Smith
The INTERNSHIP
'The Internship' is a comedy staring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn. It is a movie representing the 21st Century, where two men loose their job and end up with an internship at Google, coming to realise that they are technologically handicapped in competition with the new generation. It is a movie to look out for as it is a light-hearted film with lots to laugh at. Two men, out there, struggling to prove that 'necessity really is the mother of re-invention' to a group of young geniuses.
Why should you go?
If you liked the movie 'Wedding Crashers' and you would want to see the Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn duo again.
If you are up for a light hearted-laugh riot.
If you relate to the plot and feel left out in this technologically-driven world.
Why you shouldn't?
If you have more important things to do and are more than wiling to give this a miss.
If you feel that this movie is nothing more than an advertisement for Google.
Director: Shawn Levy
Cast: Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, Rose Byrne, Max Minghella, Joanna Garcia, John Goodman
NOW YOU SEE ME
'Now you see me' has an exciting plot with four magicians who rob a bank during their performances. They teleport one member from the audience into a bank where he robs the bank and the money recovered is showered upon the audience. The FBI investigates and tries to figure out their tricks.
Why you should go?
For the magnificent cast and storyline. And if you find magic breath-taking. Also, if the thought that a bank can be robbed using magic amazes you.
Why you shouldn't?
You think the plot is ridiculous, no one can rob a bank using magic.
You have better things to do.
Director: Louis Leterrier
Cast: Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson, Melanie Lauret, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco
