The Father, Mortal Kombat

• Karnataka Govt gave permission for cinemas to operate from July 19, 2021.
• After April 21, which was last day of cinema hall operation, they gave permission.
• I had watched three movies on April 21, 2021. Before halls shut down. Here 
• Now first cinemas opened on July 23 Friday and that was Gopalan Mall Miniplex on Old Madras Road.
• This week on July 30 many more cinemas opened up and with new releases.
• Namely Mortal Kombat and The Father among others.

Mortal Kombat

• Watched this movie at Gopalan Cinemas, Bannerghatta Road.
• I liked the movie.
• We get transported to a magical world.
• Movie like this has to be enjoyed on the big screen.

The Father

• This movie was watched at PVR Cinemas, Vega City mall.
  
• This movie is full of emotions.
• Acting of Anthony Hopkins is wonderful.
• Towards the end he cries calling Mummy Mummy is just pure emotion.
  
• Surely he was in and as Hannibal in the 2001.
• There is too much difference between this role and Hannibal.
  
• I had seen that movie on September 11, 2001.
• Now almost 20 years have passed and it is safe to say Anthony Hopkins would not be coming back as Hannibal anytime soon.
• But who knows Hollywood may still spring a surprise and we have a 90 year old Hannibal.
• Jokes apart, everybody will reach "end-of-life" stage one day or the other. 
• And dementia is a real possibility in this day and age.
• We all need to confront it.
