Deliver Us from Evil (2014)
A very good scary movie. I think the critics knocking it just do not like the exorcism genre. If you liked The Rite or The Conjuring you will like this movie. A story with characters you care about. Also based on a true story which of course means there are certain liberties taken with it but that makes it more interesting. This was a scary movie with brains. The background and setting reminded me a bit of the movie Seven. The priest is the most interesting character. I normally am not a huge fan of Eric Bana but he plays the role of the detective well. This could also be classified as a crime thriller with a supernatural twist.
Lucy (2014)
I gave it good rating because it is one of the amazing movie i have seen in recent time. The way they have depicted the whole concept the pretty amazing.
Some part of the movie i an unable to understand like why she shoot an innocent Taxi driver just because he does not know English. I feel that part was not necessary as just after that they have shown that as soon as she reached hospital so she is able to understand all the things which was mention there.
Some of the things in this movie was good and some of the things went over from my mind as don't able to understand what directory want to show in the movie.
Overall i can say its worth watching one time.

Interstellar (2014)
Interstellar is a jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring, beautiful, complex and thrilling adventure.The film is a mix of Spielberg's warmth, Kubrick's brain and Malick's beauty.Visually it is one of the best film ever made if not the best. Totally, is it the best film ever made? i don't know. A film of this scope and ambition is sure to have some narrative flaws here and there but it is beyond my ability to judge a film like this and find flaws in first viewing. May be i need to see it again to find any flaws, hell why should i find flaws while enjoyed it immensely.
Performances were great. Hans Zimmer music was terrific and loud at times. Endurance docking and ghost subplot gave me chills. Some of the stuff is hard to understand like the Gravitational singularity, Relativity and 5 Dimensional space. But Nolan connected the dots between them very efficiently and mixed them with love and humanity. If you are a sucker for these things, the film will transcend you into it or else it feels overly sentimental.
Don't miss it. I recommend you to watch it.

The Book of Life (2014)
Book of life is one of the most colorful and original set designs I have every seen in an animated movie, especially in that is CGI animation.
This movie toke a real surrealistic style to the character design in order to pay homage to Mexican culture.
It's a classic fairy tale being told in a story within a story manner, with a museum tour guide telling a group of kids a fairy tale of three children who lives will effect the center of the universe, aka Mexico, when Gods gamble on what type of people they would be as adults.
Although as a semi-musical, the Glee approach in mixing in original content with contemporary hits kind of lessened the originality of the flick, but as a whole the movie was quite entertaining.

Extraterrestrial (2014)
As I got to 30 minutes into it, I thought I'll hate this movie. The beginning and the middle are cliché but the ending is a surprising twist even though a lot of the stuff is "borrowed". If you are a fan of sci-fi you will recognize certain ideas and scenes from older hit movies-series, but I guess it was all intentional with a goal to bring these to younger audiences. About the ending, I must say I didn't see that coming and at first it made me angry but then I recognized a character at the end and it all got clear. It had the perfect ending that made this movie unique. As I look back I realize the movie makers actually had the intention of mixing up a classic teenage horror with the classic sci-fi - conspiracy theory genre. I do recommend this film if you are into the genres I mentioned earlier.
Leprechaun: Origins (2014)
When you watch this film it was very obvious that I want to show to people what "reboot" means. Clearly they wanted with this remake more horror and less comedy, which seem not to work at all. Because really the funny part of the leprechaun film was what it made so great, combined with Horror.
What they do with the remake is doing a complete horror film and that is not the way to Honor the original first Leprechaun film. The Leprechaun in this remake is made as a creature; like a monster. And the thing what was so important in the original was that the leprechaun isn't a monster or a creature. He is a character.
Watch it and tell me what in your mind?
Ouija (2014)
Sunday evening, I went and saw the movie "Ouija". I insisted I would not see this movie, because to be honest I was too scared. Something about summoning spirits just horrifies me! But I went with a few friends so that comforted me a little. I was extremely anxious going into the movie because I was so scared and after watching it, I had every right to be! This movie was definitely scary. Maybe it is because I was already nervous but I will say I was not disappointed! The movie had me jumping and covering my eyes the entire time! My friend next to me was squeezing my hand so hard, I thought all blood circulation was going to stop in my hand! Coming home that night, I was so scared I had to walk in with my flashlight on my phone just to turn on the lights in my house! As scary and good as it was, I wouldn't say this will go down in the "Horror Movie Hall of Fame" but it is definitely one I would suggest to anyone to go see!
