As we know Old is Gold
One of the best animated movie of my childhood so i thought to write a review to live that moment again.
Spirit a story of a horse who was born free and as he was growing up become the leader of his herd. but soon captured by human. The cruel colonel was famous to break wilfull of horses but it's not happen in the case of spirit and spirit escape from there in the company of a native.
Native also try to make Spirit bow infront of him but he refuses to do so as Freedom means everything to him. There Spirit fel in Love with a beautiful mare name Rain.
But army attack their too Spirit thought that Rain was dead but at the end he found her and also set him free from  that soldiers due to his bravery and with the help of that native,
In Short it was a great movie of all times i guess and gave the message of Freedom.

Dangerous freedom is much better than peaceful slavery.

One of the best thing about this film is that it is full of action, thrill and horror. Although it is a low budget movie but can easily blow the minds of people and compete with any big budget movie.

The film is about a real incident happened in Brooklyn Bank in Aug 22, 1972. It is about a bank being robbed.

The movie shows about the importance of behavior. Even a person who is about to perform a crime, a robbery have good in behavior become a good person among hostage people and outside. Behavior reflects are half of the personality attracting most of the people.

As it is said “your beliefs don’t make u better person your behavior does”
Although Dog Day Afternoon was released nationally in 1975, it is based on events that took place in Brooklyn three years earlier, in 1972. During era of thick and extremely heavy opposition to the Vietnam war, “anti-establishment” sonny repeats the counter-culture war cry of “Attica!” in reference to the 1971 Attica Prison riots.

An animated inspirational movie which gives us one of the biggest moral. A tribe because of some reason doesn't go out of an island. They say that they are not safe outside buy once a girl sets out for a journey, she of course face difficulty at first, she completes the task because of which everyone was afraid of. Rather than a stereotypical princess in need of rescue, which the film acknowledge in amusingly knowing fashion. She has both the wisdom to respect her people’s traditions and bravery to blaze her own trail towards future. so she become the first chief of her tribe.
 So the thing is if we live inside of a box and don't even try we would of course not know if we would be able to do it or not. You have to see outside of the box. Once you get outside you WILL face problems at first but in the end you  will succeed for sure. There is a quote saying " Its not about being fearless its about acting in spite of fear".

Also give a message of "girl-power "

It has been years since the man once known as Tarzan left the jungles of Africa behind for a gentrified life as John Clayton III, Lord Greystoke, with his beloved wife, Jane at his side. Now, he has been invited back to the Congo to serve as a trade emissary of Parliament, unaware that he is a pawn in a deadly convergence of greed and revenge, masterminded by the Belgian, Captain Leon Rom. But those behind the murderous plot have no idea what they are about to unleash.
The jungle consumes everything. It preys on the old, the sick, the wounded. It preys on the weak, but never the strong.
“The Legend of Tarzan” is a pretty good action-adventure movie. Its narrative is refreshingly free of bloat, folding the Tarzan origin story into a series of relatively pain-free flashbacks that actually dovetail credibly into its contemporary scenario.

Based on the domestic life of a lower class family living in Lahore, Shoaib Mansoor’s “BOL” beautifully showed the picture of oppressed women living in a family headed by a chauvinist, egoist, grouchy, the only bread-winner, an indigenous Hakeem, father of seven daughters and one more but trapped in a boy skin Saifee (eunuch), whose role becomes harbinger for the climax, has much for nearly everyone to relate it to their lives. It has a heart wrenching story.

When I was walking into the theatre, I didn't think the movie was going to be very memorable, but I was wrong. The movie hits hard and is a roller coaster ride of emotions. Humour was present to break the seriousness of the film and make the movie even more enjoyable. The acting was pretty convincing with the exception of Atif Aslam. The film direction was superb and so was the story. I heard many say that the movie consisted of too many different plot lines and controversies, but I believe Shoaib Mansoor did a great job tying all loose ends and making the plot solid. It was a HUGE step forward from "Khuda key liye". Shoman does indeed learn fast. The camera work and the sound was astonishingly better than it's predecessor. It was also pretty much entirely based on the elements of realism. It surfaced plenty of tragic, but existing, traits of the lower class society in Pakistan. The movie was thoroughly engulfing. Shoman did, indeed, work his magic yet again! An amazing movie which depicts all that is wrong with the Pakistani society! It's a must watch for everyone!

Another animated movie as i am a big fan of them, give us greatest morals. Its about a tribe which are ugly and thinks they can only gain happiness by eting a trolls. But in the end a troll proves that this theory is not true. Everyone have their own problems in life but there is always happiness with it. You just have to find it. You can't be happy for just one reason. There  are lots ans lots of them. The task for you is to find it. 

Happiness is inside you already, and not based on a material thing you can buy, or even something you eat, or drink, or take?  Trolls winds up transforming from a prospective toy commercial to a spiritual lesson about being content with what you already have.
 As per the quote
"Happiness is secret to all beauty , there is no beauty without happiness".

Brave is pretty scary for a "princess movie," especially for kids under 7 and/or those who are very sensitive to peril. Several intense sequences involve a large angry bear that attacks the main characters -- which are even more so when seen in 3-D -- and a possibly disturbing but mostly comical transformation of a mother into a bear. A moment when the mom-turned-bear temporarily forgets she's human and growls at her daughter could upset younger kids. 
The movie's thoughtful depiction of the mother-daughter bond 
The first Pixar movie to revolve around a female main character, Brave does have a strong message about family relationships and open communication between parents and kids 
Courage, independence and family are all beautifully brought to life

Another animated movie with a good plot giving us the view of our society. Movie is about the            animals. A rabbit name Hop is trying to be a cop as this profession fascinates her but the society is like "You are too little,  what  will you do? How will you act in police" and make fun of her. But anyways she doesn't give up on her dreams. Hops ends up partnered with a red fox named Nick Wilde a small-time hustler who reluctantly helps her investigate the disappearances of a dozen predators. So remember society will always talk whether you do something or not but you are the one who call the shots. The game is not about size its about our mind. 
The saying goes like 
"Dont listen to what people say; Live your life and prove them wrong".

Now You See Me is an American heist thriller film . The plot follows an FBI agent and an Interpol detective who track a team of illusionists who pull off bank heists during their performances and reward their audiences with the money.
The story starts with four magicians who present their first major performance as the Four Horsemen in an elaborate Las Vegas show funded by insurance magnate Arthur Tressler. Their final trick appears to transport one of the audience members to the vault of his bank, in Paris, where stacks of new euro bills are stored. At the magicians' commands, the fans in the vault activate, drawing the bills into the vents and then showering the Las Vegas crowd with them. The Euros are shown to be real, and the vault in Paris is found to be empty of its recent shipment of Euros, leading FBI agent, and Interpol agent, to be partnered and investigate the Horsemen. The two question the magicians but have no evidence to hold them.
It is a fast paced, psychological thriller that keeps the audience captive till the end. One has to watch every scene to get to the end of the reality of the whole plot. It is about the intelligence and shrewdness of human mind that how one can use one’s skills for good or bad purposes. There are no bounds to human mind and its genius, the question is how individuals use it.
