The Report- Movie Review




I downloaded this movie last week on Amazon Prime and today I watched it out. I am going bonkers over Adam Driver's superbly played role as a United Nations Senator's Official FBI guy who did work arduously and prepared a report of 7000 pages to highlight the discrepancy of CIA while dealing with people and detainees who caught post 9/11 attacks.

I am amazed at his adept skills of writing the report all day and night, bringing it to the eyes of his boss and CIA people, without any disgrace and abhorrence. I am touched to the core at the Senator's last speech which Daniel Jones prepared stating America will never turn its back in admitting its flaws and ensuring that such gross mistakes will never be made in future again. It's a great thing to bring that report in front of all of course by hiding CIA people real identities, even some of them got promoted, knowingly they have had blood in their hands of 119 detainees who never admitted to the crime except their name. 

It makes me believe politicians committing extreme cruelties, detesting nation and people involved in it, are everywhere. It is not going to stop ever because how that's the world works. But people like Daniel Jones makes me believe there is goodness in this world and people who hold some conscience acts and sleep peacefully at night, doing their part and leaving the post once they are done with it. It's a must watch at any cost without an iota of doubt. 


Fav Dialogue

Did you read my report?

The other guy: No I didn't.. It's 7000 pages and bible explains about mankind in less than those pages.

Final Word

This movie has moved me as a writer. It has inspired me so much that I have started working on my novel passionately and with utmost dedication. I want to write on as sincerely as Adam did his job in those five years and proved to the world that truth always find its way out and see the light of the day. I believe, if I become more disciplined and focussed, I will be able to pen down my two cents in my first novel.

I know which novel I would read next and that is You by Caroline Kepnes . As I finished off watching first season of You on Netflix, I am going bonkers over its second season. I binged watched this series and I would spill some beans from the first season as it was so intriguing and captivating. I am wondering what would it be like to read the novel by drawing a big chart on my whiteboard which I did while reading The Godfather by Mario Puzo . That book made me cry for days and it was like my world ended with its last chapter. Likewise, I am glued to You because of Joe and I believe no character would have been so powerful what he played on the screen.  Joe’s role as a bookstore manager in New York stayed longer than I expected in my mind because of the mindful conversations he played in his mind while being a stalker to the girls he fantasize about or wish to date. Guinevere Beck, an upcoming writer, broke as hell, sweet and sassy, fall prey of his words and first conversati

Life doesn’t stop amazing and amusing me at times. On 23 rd December, I was asking to take a final call on my book publishing from a friend who is already an author. Her name is Sana Rose and her book Sandcastles I read and reviewed too. She was suggesting me how publishing goes for poetry and fiction book. She came up with a name called Big Foot Publications . I immediately looked for the information on their website and called on the given number appeared on the screen. I spoke to Deepak Yadav (yes, the owner of Big Foot Publications). He told me how poetry books don’t do well in India but if I still want to go ahead, I can come up with 3 poems as sample along with my author bio. At that point of time, I didn’t know who I spoke with and I gave my book for publishing to a different publisher. In real, Blue Rose was my first publisher so I gave my book to them for poetry genre. For fiction, I would look for more publishers I guess so.  Coming to the book: Daughters of the

Book: Sandcastles Author: Sana Rose  Last year, I completed reading Sandcastles and it was my 40 th book of the year. It took quite a while to settle down in my mind. This was for the second time I read a book while interacting with author at the same time. It means a lot to me because these interactions evoke some sort of deeper emotions into me which I wouldn't have felt otherwise. Also, these interactions inspire me to write down my own book and become more dedicated to the writing regime. Coming to the book, Sandcastles is about courage, strength and never giving-up attitude of three girls who turned into women of spirit and character with their ongoing struggles and hardships. I loved Ria for her kindness and compassionate attitude. I loved Trisha for her strong spirit and taking a plunge on raising her kids all alone. I loved Selena for giving up her own dreams and living a life of single mother (which sincerely demands a lot of patience and love in heart)
