movie review : Milenge Milenge

Cast : Kareena Kapoor, Shahid Kapoor, Delnaaz Paul, Satish Shah, Satish Kaushik, Aarti Chhabaria.




Director : Satish Kaushik



Shahid to Kareena :


" Priya, mujhe sirf 5 min do. Priya, mein janta hun ki maine tumhe dhuk diya hai. Mujhetumhari dairy padne ka koi haq nahi tha. Par us raat jab guards se bachne k liye meintumhare kamremein aaya tab meri nazar tum par paddi aur mein tumhe dhekta hi rehgaya. Isilye maine wahisab kiya jiss se tumhe mein hi woh ladka hun jiski tumhe talashthi. But believe me Priya, mainesab isliye nahi kiya kyuki mein tumhara mazak udanachahta tha par isiliye kiya kyuki.. I love you, Priya. Please give me one chance, Priya."




Karrena to Shahid : "ho gaye 5 min?"



(Kareena walks out)




Shahid to Kareena : "Priya, mujhe poora yakeen hai ki taqdeer humko milana chahti hai."




Kareena : "Taxiiiiiii.. "





Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.. That is what happened in their real lyf as well, isn't it?





At the start f the movie :



(a song plays in the background) -- shez full f lyf, full f style.. uska masum sa chehra..




Kareena helps 2 girls to cross the road & shez sees a man smoking, goes upto him, removes the cigarette from his mouth & throws it away. Dude, I would have slapped her.





Kareena wants to find her Mr. Right. She thinks about this the whole day. Duh, what a loser. A tarot card reader (Kiron Kher) tells her that she will find her man on a beach in a foreign land at 7: am & he will be wearing clothes consisting f 7 different colors (man, I almost fell down laufin here) & next scene is Shahid getting up from his bed late in the morning.





Following the tarot card reader's prediction Kareena gets smitten by Shahid but later finds that he's a liar, a smoker & drinker too. So, leaves him & shifts base to Mumbai from Dehli. Shahid goes to US for 3 years comes back & still can't forget Kareena & vice versa. Typical Bollywood film, you see.






Karrena is getting married to some Jatin unwillingly may be because she feels her clock is ticking or so & Shahid is getting married to Sophia(Aarti Chhabaria) may be because he has nothing else to do.





While parting in the first scene mentioned, Kareena makes Shahid write his name & no on a 50rupee note & she writes her name & no on a book she buys using that 50rupee note & then sells it at a old book store. She says that if if they are really supposed to be together, she will get back that 50 rupee note & Shahid will find that book, somehow. How Dumb!






So, when both are supposed to get married in a day or two, Kareena finds that 50rupee note & Shahid that book. Voila!






Kareena barges into Shahid's marriage ceremony & they get married there and then. Wow!
Cudn't get more dumber than this, I must say.







This movie was supposed to release on 23rd Dec, 2005 but due to some financial problems, Kareena-Shahid break-up, Tsunami in the Indian Ocean they stalled the release of the film. Man, you should have never made the film. That would have saved you a lot f money & embarrassment as well.





The acting is worst throughout the film. There's absolutely no chemistry between Shahid & kareena. Delnaz Paul is as stupid as she is fat.





P.S. agar tumhe tym nahi 'mila' ye movie dhekne toh achha hoga..

movie review : I hate Love Stories.

Cast : Imran Khan, Sonam Kapoor





Director : Punit Malhotra




Sonam is a die-hard movie buff, a total filmy. Imran hates love stories. Sonam hates Imran. Imran starts liking Sonam. Sonam starts liking Imran. Now, they are a couple. Like we din't noe that this would happen. Duh!






Sonam Kapoor can't act. Period. Sonam looks so dumb throughout the film. She does this "non-sense" in front f the camera which she considers acting jus lyk her father does who is in a different world since Slumdog Millionaire. Her granny thinks she deserves an oscar for this film. Well, granny, why don't you just put a lid on it.





Imran Khan, like this one, always manages to choose dumb roles.





The fat guy from the Sprite add was good, though.





P.S. If you lyk this film then it's tym to see a doc.

movie review : The Beach.

Cast : Leonardo DiCaprio, Virginie Ledoyen, Guillaume Canet, Robert Carlyle.





Director : Danny Boyle




"Couple f things you've to remember.

1 : You've to stay calm &

2 : No fear..

.. because the sharks.. you see, the sharks can sense that fear with the ease that they can smell blood. So, this is unusual. It's jaw wide open, row upon row f these razor sharp teeth, it's tail fin sweeping back n forth lyk it's surged in for the kill. I swear to God
my whole lyf flashed before my eyes, really. I had nothing to offer other than pure reflex
& mankind's basic pride for survival. It's lyk telling the shark 'no, I will not die today'.
The shark knew it, I knew it".



These kinda lines & the intensity with which DiCaprio delivers gives you goosebumps, man.







DiCaprio travels to Thailand on a vacation & the first thing he hear is "Like every
tourist, you want it all . . . to be safe, just like America". So, he drinks snake blood
just to show that he's ready for the new things that Thailand has to offer.
The guy living next door shows a map f an island to him which is not listed in normal
maps. DiCaprio decides to take a hike with the 2french folks (Virginie Ledoyen and
Guilluame Canet). Through a shark-infested waters & marijuana farms they reach the
hidden island also called 'The Paradise'.






DiCaprio does show his talents with great acting, dialogue-delivery & charming the young
french women. The part where he treats himself as a video game player & acts like one
is amazing.









P.S. great camera angles, good story, great locations.. worth a watch. A hint f drugs,
adult language, nudity and sex.

movie review : Ravaan.

Cast : Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Ravi Kissen, Govinda.




Director : Mani Ratnam.





To b very honest I lyk when Ratnam's films start with 'Madras Talkies'. It's probably
because I lyk it being called Madras more than Chennai. Most f the previous names f
states I did lyk.. eg: Bombay was better than Mumbai, Calcutta sounded better than Kolkata. Oh, I strayed.. jus lyk I did when I was watching this movie. It's that bore a film thatyou might be forced to check out what the girl seated next to you is texting.





Abhishek plays Beera who kidnaps the local cop's wife Ragini (Aishwarya) avenging a crime committed against his family. Dev (played by Tamil star Vikram) searches the entire jungle to find his wife & also to get hold f Beera. Beera on the other hand develops
feelings for Ragini & decides not to kill her. Love, u see.




Ratnam adopted a lot f idea's from Ramayana like Dev asking Ragini to undergo a ploygraph test to prove her purity & the surpanakha character.




Ravi Kissen was brilliant in the film. Govinda was.. well, he was Govinda. Aishwarya dint
have too much f a role except stare at the camera, scream & yet look gorgeous.




Not the Mani Ratnam film I had expected.





P.S. Take some aspirin with you.
