Movies this week: 'Don Jon', 'Prague', 'Prisoners' and more release on September 27

Here are some of the Hollywood and Bollywood films releasing this week, complete with some trailers and some details about the films.

Don Jon

Jon Martello (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is a strong, handsome, good old fashioned guy. His friends call him Don Jon, because he's a ladies man, who can pull in a different woman every week. But even the finest fling doesn't compare to the bliss he finds alone in front of the computer watching pornography. Barbara Sugarman (Scarlett Johansson) is a bright and beautiful girl who has grown up dreaming of romantic Hollywood movies. She's determined to find her Prince Charming and ride off into the sunset. Wrestling with good old fashioned expectations of the opposite sex, Jon and Barbara struggle against a media culture full of false fantasies to try and find true intimacy in this unexpected comedy written and directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Prague

Prague deals with the inner conflicts of Chandan, a passionate architect who comes to Prague for a project along with his friend Gulshan who he idolises and wants to emulate but is also strangely scared of. In Prague Chandan meets a gypsy girl, Elena. This girl becomes the love of his life, his inspiration and also the pain of his soul because of his past from India refuses to leave him alone. Chandan's experiences have made him mistrust his own shadow and his insecurities have made his life a living hell. His only ally in his darkest times is his friend Arfie but then things are not always what they seem.

Cast - Chandan Roy Sanyal, Elena Kazan , Arfi Lamba, Mayank Kumar, Sonia Bindra

Director - Ashsish R Shukla

Verdict - Prague as a psychological thriller does a good job of taking you through a world of emotions while trying to solve the puzzle. The location plays well with the story line and adds to the mystic and surreal feel the film is trying to give off. The film is a good watch, and will definitely keep you entertained throughout.

Gambit

Cast - Colin Firth, Cameron Diaz, Alan Rickman, Tom Courtenay, Stanley Tucci, Cloris Leachman

Director - Michael Hoffman

Verdict - Even with an all star cast of brilliant actors, the films premise itself is just not engaging. It actually sounds quite stupid out loud. Maybe good for a couple of laughs, but I wouldn't recommend it.

IMDb - 5.6/10

Rotten Tomatoes - 19%

Warning

Anubhav Sinha and first-time director, Gurmeett Singh will take audiences on a journey into the lives of 7 young friends who do not heed a warning and find themselves stranded in shark-infested seas, unable to find themselves back on to their luxury yacht.

Cast - Santosh Barmola, Suzana Rodrigues, Varun Sharma, Manjari Phadnis

Director - Gurmeett Singh

Verdict - A bold new venture as the filming is very different from a normal Hindi movie, but hardly a new premise (Think Jaws). Just one time watch to see how it was done could be your best course of action with this movie.

Director - Denis Villeneuve

Verdict - Hugh Jackman leads a stellar cast in a thrill ride from the very start. Even though the films premise seems like it's been done a million times, this film does it in a different way, separating itself from the rest. The film brilliantly shows the conflicts that arise within a desperate man.
