movie review: Ek main aur ekk tu.

Cast: Imran Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Boman Irani, Ratna Pathak Shah, ram Kapoor.



Director: Shakun Batra



Stupid movie. "Perfectly average" - a new concept taught in the movie. You-would-not-expect kinda ending.






P.S. Google the concept. Let a friend tell u the ending but, but, but.. DO NOT watch.

movie review: Force.

Cast: John Abraham, Genelia D'souza, Vidyut Jamwal.



Director: Nishikant Kamat


Force is not a mindless action movie. It has loads f action but it also has
substance.




John, ok you have taken some heavy duty steroids, but awesome size man. Vidyut,
good-lean physique. Geneila, borrow some steroids from John & get big, please.




John, a narcotics officer fights the drug terror in the country with 4 f his trusted
men. Debutant Vidyut plays, Vishnu with ease. Grim look & sly smile works for him.




The direction is superb. Good action, lil brutal thou'. The chase scene direction
including John & Vidyut was amazing. Thumbs-up for the dialogues. But the bike scene
was totally fake. How can a person lift a 150Kg bike? Even if has lifted how could he
throw it? When thrown, how does it travel straight as an arrow? No gravity, eh?





I do not agree with the casting much. Preity Zinta could have been used. You needed
someone cute then why not Zinta, man? Genelia looks lyk a tiny sparrow in front f
John. Isn't the actress supposed to complement the actor? Monish Bhel playing John's
junior looked lame. Raj Babar sucked.





John tries to b cute. Man, you've already crossed the size for being cute. Genelia is
already cute then why try to me more cute by over-acting?




Lastly, the song, Khwabon mein, sucks.






P.S. only if John could act..

movie review : Not a Love Story.

Cast: Mahi Gill, Deepak Dobriyal, Ajay Gehi.



Director: Ram Gopal Verma


Struggling model-casting couch-says no-struggle continues-finally gets a break-falls for the director who gives her a break-director stays overnight @Models' place-suspicious boyfriend-kills the director-dumps the body-missing report filed-police questions-model found guilty-police tortures-model confesses-boyfriend caught-verdict still awaited..

A normal looking film but based on a real story of Neeraj Grover killing my the Kannada actress Maria Susairaj and her boyfriend Jerome Mathew.



The body getting chopped to pieces is shown nicely in the film. This movie shows us that how nice, normal looking people can be extremely brutal when required. The Rangeela track in the background helps.




I love the end where Mahi & Deepak kiss & don't let each other go. That speaks volumes of the love that was there between 'em.



If the camera would have rotated & revolved a bit less that I wouldn't have had a headache by the end of the movie. Mahi Gill should have acted better. Gehi still speaks in a silly like the way he did in Ghoom.



P.S. worth a watch.


Moral: You can love someone very deeply & yet do things which could hurt 'em.

movie review: The Japanese Wife.

Cast: Rahul Bose, Raima Sen, Chigusa Takaku




Director: Aparna Sen.


Love, in it's purest form.





P.S. must watch.

movie review: Kuch Love Jaisa.

Cast:Rahul Bose, Shefali Chhaya, Neetu Chandra, Sumeet Raghavan.



Director:Barnali Ray Shukla

The title sounded silly to me but since it had Rahul Bose & Shefali Chhaya in it, I thought it would'nt be. I was so wrong.




Beginning:
Shefali & Sumeet play husband & wife in the film. Rahul is a wanted gangster although it is never shown what crimes he did actually commit or may be they showed, I must have dozed off by then. Sumeet is shown as bored with Shefali after 4yrs f marriage & 2 children, work is wife n all bull crap. Shefali gets pissed on the 29th Feb, which happens to be her birthday & Sumeet forgets to wish her. To avenge this she heads out to a mall, shops, dolls up, buys a new red car, goes to a coffee shop, smokes, chats up with a stranger [Rahul Bose] & leaves to spend the day with him. Rahul says he's a detective or something & Shefali believes it & goes around chasing any guy in a yellow tight t-shirt. How dumb!




In-between:
I dozed off.





End:
When I got up, some 20Min's were remaining. There was Shefali's birthday celebration party. Next scene in the washroom, Shefali is asking her school-goin daughter whether she's in love or not & whether did she have sex, yet. Damn, mother's ask these kinda stuff?



The films starts off well. Appears promising but loses control after the 30Min's & drifts someplace else. And Rahul, dude the bhai-language rilly dosent suit you.



To the director - You should not waste a talent lyk Rahul Bose & Shefali Chhaya.



P.S. Silly.

movie review: Happy ThankYouMorePlease.

Cast:Malin Akerman, Josh Radnor, Kate Mara, Zoe Kazan, Pablo Schreiber, Tony Hale



Director:Josh Radnor



The title "Happy ThankYouMorePlease" is a lil annoying but the film isn't. You might actually want more when the film reaches its end.




The film is about a 20-something writer, Radnor who lives a bachelor life & meets a lil black boy, Rasheen who is seperated from his family since six years on a subway while going for work. Radnor adopts Rasheen illegally. Malin Akerman, plays Radnor's hairless (due to a condition) friend. Kate Mara plays Radnor's love interest. Kate is an aspiring singer & waitress. Tony Hale plays Malin's over-friendly friend at workplace.




A beautiful man-child relationship is shown between Radnor. Radnor tries several times to give away the child to police or the child-service but the boy refuses to leave him. Eventually the boy blends into his lyf. Whilst leaving with him Radnor discovers that the Rasheen has immense talent with a pencil & a paper & so, encourages him.




The title is well explained by Malin in a scene with Tony where she states that she usually says "more please" with a "thank-you" cuz thanking somebody is done when something good has happened with you & she'd lyk more such opportunities.




A brilliant cast to go with a good story.





Moral f the story: Adulthood is not about waiting for the right answers to get the life you want, but simply stumbling ahead and figuring them out in the process.

movie review: Game.

Cast: Abhishek Bachchan, Sarah Jane Dias, Gauhar Khan, Kangana Ranaut, Anupam Kher.



Director: Abhinay Deo

The title song f the movie goes like this: it's a game.. it's a game. I shud've stopped watchin there & then.
