Neal "N" Nikki


Cleavagexplosion.
That's what this movie is all about. You will also find unbearable and irritating Tanisha along with gayish Uday.
Mr> Chopra ,have you gone insane.........

Apaharan


Prakash Jha made a solid impact with his debut effort "damul", In the last decade we saw mr.Jha transitioning into maintstream movies dishing out cinema representative of the perils of our society through realism. "Apaharan" narrates the recent spate of abduction and kidnapping that continues to terrorize a dilapidated Bihar. Mr. Jha's capability to handle sensitive topics is visible with Apaharan, the movie grips you thru the intermission and loses you therafter, Nana does a commendable job, Ajay looked too old for his character, Bipasha is used an icing, in all a honest movie that does entertains you in bits and pieces.

Worthy of a DVD watch.

Nobody Knows - Japanese

Grizzly Man


Tragic, lonely , bizzare and extraordinary tale of Timothy Treadwell, his love for the Grizzly bears who ironically took his life. Sad but amazing documentary, a journey into the life of a wildlife protectionist, who was more part of the wild than human habitation.

MUST MUST SEE!

Crash


"WHAT A MOVIE" "ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT", I will eagerly wait for what Paul Haggis has to offer in the future. CRASH will strike a chord immediately, engagin you in this emotional thriller where multi ethnic characters intersect each others lives struggling to overcome their own fears.
UNDOUBTEDLY one of the best films I have seen in months::::

DON't MISS!!!!!!!!

Must Love Dogs


Let me keep this short, you MUST LOVE Diane Lane and John Cusak to enjoy this movie, for others PASS.

Deewane Huye Paagal


What happens when an ensembe of comic actors team up? well they make you laugh. DHP attempts to do just that, Inspired heavily from "there's something about mary", DHP is a nonsense or in assamese "fotooa" comedy that will appeal to masses and to people like me who looks at an occasion to laugh, Akshay rocks in this Vikram Bhat directed comic and Vijay Raaz as always is humorous, this guy makes me laugh with just his presence.
If you are not into "non sense " movies, If you are a self proclaimed movie critic and look for meaning in movies, this movie is not yours to watch.

I ENJOYED.

Mr.Ya Miss

What did Antara Mali tried to prove with this sub standard movie?
My only note, learn from others, donate your dollars to the needy instead.

Ek Ajnabee


Apoorva Lakhia's second attempt to Bollywood fame with a copy of Man on Fire does deserve few applause, its a well made film with Amitabh and Perizaad stealing the show all the way. Although this movie manages to get you thru to the end, the final twist can make you leave the theatre saying " What was that?". Arjun Rampal is wasted, Vishal Sekhar's title track wil make your hip hop....Worth a DVD watch...

Bad Education ( Mala educaciĆ³n, La )


Pedro Almodvar is a par excellence story teller, his latest offering starring his favorite team of actors, specifically Gael Garcia who excels in the role of a lifetime playing three characters, Juan/Agnel/Zahara.
Plot Outline: An examination on the effect of Franco-era religious schooling and sexual abuse on the lives of two longtime friends. ( Courtesy - IMDB)
Caution: Subject deals with homosexuality and transgenders.

I think Pedro is a stellar movie maker.
Enjoyed it!!

Seeing other people


A Sundance production, movie about an engaged couple who decides to have "no strings attached" sexual flings with others before they get married, an "real" adult comedy you will enjoy.

Good Watch!

March of the Penguins


There are few documentaries you should see, one obviously is "March of the Penguins" and the other " The winged migration". These are GEMS, you will have to see it to believe it. "March of the Penguins" is beyond brilliance, for someone to think about filming these penguins and bringing it to our cozy comfort living rooms is for me the ultimate gift one can give, and to top it Morgan Freeman gives voice to these cute and curious creatures. "March of the Penguins" shows the agony and ecstacy of the "emperor penguins" that inhabitates Antartica.

Beyond words!

Mr. and Mrs. Smith


Didn't like it, so not wasting time writing on it.

The Film

Thanks to the multiplexes, now we at least have production houses backing directors with "hatke" topics, Junaid Memon's "the film" surprises you with freshness and good twists, a movie about 6 wannabe bollywood stars and how each falls prey to ......... ( see the movie)...

Home Delivery


I liked this movie!
It really has few genuine funny moments, from quality perspective, its a much superior product over "Jhankar beats", but it does fall short of expectation on the script, it drags in between, in my opinion the basic reason for its untimely demise. Sujoy Ghosh's attempt deserves accolades but guess he should focus more on the content the next time. Ayesha Takia is spontaneous, Vivek is convincing ,Saurabh Shukla is brilliant, Tikoo talsania reminds me of his role in "dil hain ke manta nahin" - funny, Boman Irani is effortless.
Watch it ! ( without expecting much )

Ek Haseena, Ek Khiladi


This was one movie, I had zero expectation and was pleasantly pleased with debutant director Suparn Verma's slick handling of this con caper. KK is brilliant, Koena Mitra's transition to lead actor from a item girl is convincing, she sizzles the screen with Fardeen. Pritam scores with "Ishq hain Jhootha". Check this Twister....

Kyon Ki


Just wanted to say the Priyadarshan fails with Kyon Ki, very dissappointed.
Avoid it.
