Uri, Second Act

Watched two movies as mentioned in the subject line.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Uri
  • Watched this movie at Lakshmi Theatre, Tavarakere. 
  • I liked the movie
  • This movie is like the propaganda movie we know of.
  • It will show the opponent as weak and incompetent and show the heroes as real heroes.
  • It is like Hollywood movies where they used to show Soviets or Nazis as weak and ineffective and American or British heroes as real heroes
  • The first scene where surgical strikes were carried out across the border in Myanmar is accompanied by very good background music I thought.
  •  But leaving all else, I watched the movie on Monday and as we know Monday is the day of the Moon.
  • We know moon is barren and lifeless and exposed to vagaries of the universe and solar system.
  • Moon also acts as a "shield" to help preserve life on earth. We can know by the fact that moon is riddled with craters and it has taken a lot of "hits" over millions of years.
  • We should be glad that our planet Earth supports life.
  • And we humans have finite resources and we should use this opportunity given to us in this planet to help one another and help sustain life.
  • Killing each other for whatever reason and military adventurism solves no problems.
  • We should help one another and this planet and that is the need of the hour.

Second Act
  • This movie was watched at PVR Cinemas, Koramangala. 
  • This is unlike "Maid in Manhattan", J-Lo's last movie in New York which I know of.
  • Here the "second act" is how J-Lo's character gets a second shot to be a mother to the baby she gave up for adoption when she was a teen.
  • Overall this movie is good for a "fuzzy feel good feeling", kind of like 10:45 PM movie shows I used to watch at Sterling Theatre near VT almost two decades back.
