Food Inc. is a documentary directed by Robert Kenner. Michael Pollan and Eric Schlosser narrate this documentary. It sheds its thumping potential upon the unfair means pursued by the farming-corporate in the US - which includes the harsh conditions of animals and disrespectful attitude toward the employees from top-management level.

Subject of the documentary is vital for people of the United States. It offers analysis on something, which is essential part of survival of the humankind.

Being an MBA student, and as an average person I have noticed that when the companies hit the top; (having been pioneer and started working with zeal and dedication) they most probably decline to pursue policy of check-and-balance, quality-inspection, and open-management discussion with all the employees from foreman to top-level; for the sake of betterment and development of the corporation.

However, it is hardly the case with those, which realize the importance of keeping aloof the symbol of quality, dedication, customer-satisfaction as well as environmental-friendly products (e.g., Johnson & Johnson would tolerate damages and loss but would never compromise over dissatisfaction of the customers and all involved).

This is one of best Clint Eastwood films, directed by Don Siegel, portraying Western and urban scenarios for a Cowboy like Clint Eastwood. He is on hunt to extradite an insane criminal to his side of West, from bustling city of New York City! Lee J. Cobb has part in this movie, and you just love two great actors together on screen. I typically liked the scene where Clint (finally) manhandles young woman in her apartment!

Quiz Show historical drama film produced and directed by Robert Redford, screenplay by Paul Attanasio - Quiz Show is based on Remembering America by Richard N. Goodwin. Starring Ralph Fiennes as Charles Van Doren, John Turturro as Herb Stempel, Paul Scofield, Rob Morrow as Congressional investigator Richard Goodwin (Goodwin is also the co-producer of the film), David Paymer, Hank Azaria, Christopher McDonald AND Martin Scorsese (in brief cameo).

Film chronicles the events of infamous scandal at NBC quiz show 'Twenty One' in 1950s primetime - in which, the producers Dan Enright and Albert Freedman provided the contestants with the answers prior to start of the show. These contestants were Herbert Stempel (John Turturro) from Queens, and newly called in contestant in Charles Van Doren (Ralph Fiennes) professor at Columbia University and son of a renowned poet and intellectual Mark Van Doren (Paul Scofield).

Outstanding demarcating direction from Robert Redford, defines his skills and approach to certain eras. John Turturro is a man who touches character through his humor and excitement; no doubt, the real Charles Van Doren praised and mentioned enjoying watching Turturro's performance.

When, I read about reasons behind bringing in (real) Charles Van Doren on the show. I came to know that his persona was one of the reasons why the producers wanted him on the show; however, I can pretty much say with great assurance that Ralph Fiennes portrayed the character mildly and rather far convincingly innocent to appeal the Congressional hearing of his involvement in the scandal.

I love movies with investigation plots (but with maximum mechanism and potential like here) and in this regard, Robert Redford's Quiz Show has passed all it could to give three aspiring backgrounds a. era b. crime c. money d. investigation. Soothing and mesmerizing music-score by Mark Isham.

NOTE: I have been participating in the class-quiz over general-knowledge, and in this regard I have been following different quiz shows both local and international since 1996, thus to say, this movie really cheered me up.

All the myths and postulations about Bermuda Triangle (also called Devil's Triangle); about mystery of which, the scientists have so far failed to figure out disappearance of several planes and ships, killing as many as thousand of people so far. Bermuda is bounded by Atlantic, the Bahamas and Straits of Florida. In 1950 AD the first case of disappearance was reported and to date many have kept coming so far. It's said that phenomenon of an electromagnetic compass points to true-north instead of magnetic-north.. History writes that Christopher Columbus likewise felt abnormal behavior of his compass in this region. Flight 19 keeps the importance, which disappeared in this region. This short-documentary cannot analyze much about the mystery with its duration of about 42mints; but it's sufficient to give an idea to people who are new to this kind of mystery out there.

The Protector directed by James Glickenhaus, Staring Jackie Chan and Danny Aiello. The version I watched was American version that included partial nudity and informal slang.

New York police officer Billy (Jackie Chan) loses his partner in gunfight at the bar by uncivilized gang. Billy gets the new but jolly partner Danny (Danny Aiello) - soon a kidnapping takes place in which a daughter of a rich man, who is believed to be brought to Hong Kong for ransom, the two officers persuade mayor to let them chase the trails to Hong Kong on special orders.

There was a Hong Kong version as well which was edited b y Jackie Chan, after he grew differences with the director Glickenhaus; it is believed that this encouraged Jackie to make his own side of blockbuster hit series Police Story. The Protector was second entry by Jackie Chan to enter American cinema after The Big Brawl.

Frankly speaking, the film was slow and seemed too darker to uplift the sensation of the audience - nonetheless, when Chan is initiating his martial arts skills, we seem to overlook all these shortcomings. Danny Aiello looks good in the film; his comedic approach to the role seemed satisfying.

Hero directed by Zhang Yimou. Starring Jet Li as the nameless warrior also an assassin, Maggie Cheung (Police Story) as Flying Snow,Ziyi Zhang (Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon) as Moon, Donnie Yen as Sky, Tony Leung (Infernal Affairs - Hard Boiled) as Broken Sword.

The movie is based on the story of nameless warrior's assassination attempt on emperor of Qin, Flying Snow, and Broken Sword. More than two thousand years ago, the king wanted to unify all six kingdoms of China and hence becoming the first emperor of unified land - this included his ultimate goal to completion of Great Wall of China to protect his subjects.

Hero comes with style and extravagant martial arts choreography; with pure addition of Chinese tradition. Expressions by Jet Li and Maggie Cheung are worth praising to keep the tone of the plot. Vivid set designs brings particular attention from audience at the conveyance of central theme of the movie. Dashing film that does not require to go epic and yet succeeds in establishing the facts and factuality over the historical accounts of China, including spectacular landmark of China. Film also sheds light over term 'Our Land' which is believed to be frequently referred by Chinese today.

Unnecessary film of Jackie Chan, it seemed like movie was made with blow of the wind, quick and unnecessary.

Police Story 2 written/directed/starring Jackie Chan as HK Police detective Chan Ka-kui. This is the sequel to Police Story released in 1985.

The plot of the film shows is about a disguised person who is blowing up lavish commercial buildings in order to get ransom of 20 million, but HK police detective Kai (Jackie Chan) who is trying to make it on his own with his girlfriend and old enmity; does everything in his reach to bring culprits to justice.

Very intriguing direction from Jackie Chan, and moving fights-choreography - watching this movie seemed as if one is witnessing a non-stop full-action throttled Chan-signature film. Flawless and tight plot that does not show any sign of weakness in its plot-layout.

Tough Guys directed by Jeff Kanew. Starring Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas, Eli Wallach, Charles Durning, Dana Carvey and Darlanne Fluegel.

Harry (Lancaster) and Archie (Douglas) are former olde train-robbers from 1956, imprisoned for 30 years, now out as old pals and rehabilitated to adopt more of social life and this social trend is kept on watch by probation officer as well. They suffer mistreatment from young generation of mid 80s, and it turns out that their former hang-out club has turned to be gay-club. They could hardly fit in the job they are thrust upon. Hence, they want to hit for the last time to rob a train and move to Mexico - the one they robbed 30-years ago.

Tough Guys, sheds light in comedic way upon the treatment suffered by elderly ex-cons, and how some hurdles keep them away from rehabilitating. Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster cannot be funnier than this, with Eli Wallach playing one of good minor-comedy roles (who was contracted in 1956 to kill the duo - and is still persuading to complete the contract). Good movie to spend a quality time with few guffaws.

One Life BBC nature documentary written and directed by Michael Gunton. Narrated by Daniel Craig.

Documentary covers the struggle of different species on the planet earth who look for foods and survival (out of more than 5 million species) some parenting, diverging from predators, intelligence used by these species to get the best out of their raw foods, like some monkeys cracking seeds with heavy boulder, and them escaping freezing temperature by staying in a steamy pond, the way of attracting mighty male by female whales and swans, the romance and so on, ants cutting down stalks of grass much larger to ward-off poisonous air released by fungus,

One Life is pure lesson to understand the beautiful and yet bizarre side of animal ecosystem, which slightly different from human-ecology. Film gives excellent note of different species in short BUT explanatory episodes with dazzling voice and crispy narration from Daniel Craig. For many of the audience this is great wonderment to watch and accumulate knowledge about the dwellings of species of our beloved planet, in a simple logical way.

I recommend this to everyone, and irrespective of your taste in documentaries, this documentary needs to be seen for it lays its weight heavier on nature (that we're part of).
