The Vigil, The Marksman

  • Watched two movies as mentioned in the subject line.
  • ----------------------------------------------------------------------
  • The Vigil
  • This movie was watched at PVR Cinemas, Forum Mall, Koramangala.
  • This movie is boring to say the least.
  • Movie deals with not how Jews dominate the scene in US but hate crime against Jews worldwide.
  • It seems Jews are disproportionately targeted for their ethnicity (fact which may not be 100% true)
  • Fact is racists can target anyone "who is different" or who is not like them.
  • And even in the scare element the movie does not succeed as it is set in New York City which is a dense urban conglomeration.
  • Fact which may be scary is not touched upon that much as to how the Demon managed to reach the heroes girlfriend during video call. 
  • Maybe the hero was just imagining things
  • ---------------------------------------------------------------------
  • The Marksman
  • This movie was watched at PVR, Forum Mall.
  • I must say that this movie is far better than The Vigil but then we should not compare movies at expense of one another.
  • Each movie must have taken a lot of effort to be made.
  • This movie deals with Mexican immigrants escaping drug lords.
  • Also the person whom the Cartel has sent is a "soldier" but not an "ex-serviceman" like the hero.
  • But he is a soldier of the cartel and recruited since young age he knows nothing else but still has a deep fascination for the military because he takes the medal of the hero when he attacks his farm house.
