Despicable Me 2 – Hilariously Surprised Again
There was hardly a boring or a meh moment in the entire movie. Some of the jokes are not exactly pristine but Gru’s accent takes care of that, and leaves you laughing out loud.
Go Goa Gone = Left 4 Dead
I will not write much more here and just say go watch it, if you haven’t already. And yes, don’t take your brains – zombies eat brains.
Royal Meenakshi Mall – 2 years on
All in all, the mall is still awesome with its various stores, particularly Hypercity and Croma, its food outlets, both inside and outside the mall, and Cinepolis, of course.
Star Trek Into Darkness

The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande
The book also describes guidelines and best practices to write checklists that actually work and are useful as opposed to being just a formality. It gives example of aviation industry checklists used worldwide and describes the principles used in framing them. This adds to the practical value of the book, which otherwise, would have just…
Toy Story 3
It is not new to have a deeply emotional and touching story in an animated film. I can count many animated movies like Wall-E, How to Train your Dragon, Ratatouille, etc… that have an emotional tone and a thematic message.
