4 Great Movies You Will Never See This Year

Summer Blockbuster season is approaching an end... Which for a movie buff like me is the best time for blogging, as now is the time when most of the blockbusters for next year start releasing teasers and virals and also the contenders for the year's Oscars start releasing trailers...

A lot of the journalists from the movie industry also consider this the most interesting part of their work schedules, as this is when phantom whispers of movies from Blockbuster paradise start garnering volume.... Ridley Scott to direct the Alien prequel, Steven Spielberg to direct the remake of Harvey, Futurama's coming back from the dead and what not.

Well anyways as a prelude to the inevitable list of blockbuster trailers, here's a look at some of the best movies releasing this summer, you might never hear of:

Not Quite Hollywood

The story of Oz Movies.... Their unbelievable overdose of grotesque, stereotypes, nudity and above all car explosions became inspirational for a number of Hollywood's biggest stars including Quentin Tarantino who is also a part of this film.





An Unlikely Weapon

A documentary film narrated by Kiefer Sutherland about Pulitzer Prize winning photographer Eddie Adams, the man who shot the iconic snap of police chief General Nguyễn Ngọc Loan executing a Vietcong prisoner, Nguyễn Văn Lém, on a Saigon street, on February 1, 1968, during the opening stages of the Tet Offensive.





Still Walking

For those of you who know Hirokazu Koreeda, this, according to me, is his best flick till date. For those who don't you might want to check out Hana, After Life or Nobody Knows before you decide on whether you would want to continue on this Odyssey of beautiful, light hearted and yet powerfully profound cinema.





Brothers

Stars Tobey Maguire, Natalie Portman and Jake Gylenhall and is directed by Jim Sheridan (In America, My Left Foot and also the infamous get Rich or Die Tryin') is a world war story of 2 brothers who are as alike as chalk and cheese, and the trials faced by the family as one goes off to war.
