Looking Forward: September - October 2013

For this post, I combined two months period because these months have less numbers of big movies coming out, but below are some to look out for...



Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 (Sept 27-USA, Oct 25-UK, Oct 10-Singapore)

          Another animation movie by Sony Animation, but this one looks promising. Its predecessor did amazingly well, both critically and commercially. It was a very creative movie that places food in the context of natural weather and disasters. This sequel is, in my opinion, impressively creative, to have the foods representing live animals and creatures alive today. With another decent script and excellent visuals, this may be the animation movie to watch this fall.

Gravity (Oct 4-USA, Nov 8-UK, Oct 10-Singapore)

          Sandra Bullock, George Clooney, and Alfonso Cuaron. These three names alone are enough to drag me to the cinema. The film itself is a big budget movie, set in the outer space. From the trailers, it looks visually stunning. However I do have to point out my initial concerns. Other than being hit by debris and getting lost in space, I could not see the details of the plot. There are only two names in the cast, and from the trailers alone, I cannot see how this can go on as a full movie. I'm blind with this one, yet I'm highly intrigued by what this thriller has to show.

Escape Plan (Oct 18-USA, Nov 22-UK, Oct 17-Singapore)

         Whenever you see Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the same picture, you know something big is about to happen. Here I am with this perception, and looking forward to this movie, which is about escaping a maximum security prison codenamed 'The Tomb', which is of Stallone's character's own design. So this should be interesting to watch.
