Secret Window thriller film starring Johnny Depp

Secret Window (2004) – Johnny Depp starrer thriller

November 18, 2014

An adaptation of Stephen King’s novella of the same name, the Johnny Depp starrer Secret Window is an average thriller in a predictable sequence of events. While the acting of Depp with his very eccentricities drives the story forward and actually makes you watch the whole film, there are certainly few plot holes which might […]

Into the Storm (2014)

October 30, 2014

First of all, the reason I wanted to watch Into the Storm is the fact that for long I was waiting for a movie like the 1996 hit disaster drama “Twister.” No doubt, Twister is an amazing film and so naturally one would now expect something better.

Unthinkable (2010) – a hard-hitting suspense thriller

June 15, 2013

Recently, I watched this political suspense thriller Unthinkable and would say that this is simply one of the best when you think of something unexpected, something that forced you to face your values, your beliefs, and morality with the reality. The story deals with terrorism and the question of how far we all are willing […]
