When a small town in the wild west is terrorized by a greedy gold digger, the desperate residents turn to a bounty hunter and his group of disjointed mercenaries to come to their rescue. Though the whole cast does justice to their respective characters, performances by Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt, Vincent D'onofrio and Peter Sarsgaard stand out. With a slight difference in the plot from the 1960 original, this one is a good watch.

Sully
Adaption of the true life event of 2009, when Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger called upon all his 40 years and 20000 hours of flying experience to successfully land a commercial airliner that had lost thrust on both engines onto the Hudson, saving all 155 souls on board. The movie gives us an insight into how Sully was hailed a hero and also beleaguered by the authorities for his decisions in those fateful 208 seconds. Titled "The Miracle on the Hudson", the event displays how a miracle is the result of tough decisions at the right time rather than a play of luck. Tom Hanks's and Aaron Eckhart's impeccable performances on screen and Clint Eastwood's off it make this a brilliant watch. So Cactus 1549, you are cleared for takeoff to buy tickets, because you do not want to miss this one.
