Cassandra's Dream - movie review

IMDB User Rating: 6.9/10

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0795493/

My verdict:
Another nice movie from Woody Allen. The story revolves around two brothers who are cash strapped and didn't know how to come out of it. They take up criminal activity and then morality plays the game, ending the movie perfectly.

21 grams - movie review

IMDB User Rating: 7.9/10

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0315733/

Paul Rivers: How many lives do we live? How many times do we die? They say we all lose 21 grams... at the exact moment of our death. Everyone. And how much fits into 21 grams? How much is lost? When do we lose 21 grams? How much goes with them? How much is gained? How much is gained? Twenty-one grams. The weight of a stack of five nickels. The weight of a hummingbird. A chocolate bar. How much did 21 grams weigh?

My verdict:
This movie reminded me of Amores perros and Babel. Then I found out that this movie was directed by the same director as the earlier said movies. A good watch.
