2007 was a good year for Hindi Cinema & just as i was about to make up my mind as my favorite movies this year comes aamir khan with Taare Zameen Pe. This has really been an year when bollywood explored a lot of avenues and broke new ground , there were debutants who came […]
Another movie that goes straight into ‘cinophile’s pick’. This movie has been really getting some bad press & reviews, and naturally so , for those reviewers who have grown on a steady diet of subhash ghai & karan johar ,this movie goes way beyond their comprehensions. For those who might have preferred a mayapuri over […]
I had absolutely enjoyed every bit of “Ek Hasina Thi” it was slick, stylish & fast paced thriller , the best part was the storytelling. It didnt work in the conventional suspense movie mould , held the tension throughout & the viewer was kept on the edge of his seat compelled to think about […]
Layerd , Complex, Involving Noir flick , oh yes im talking of a hindi film , belive it. Manorama Six Feet Under has to be in the top three flicks out of bollywood this year. A dark murder mystery with a suspense element beyond the usual & something which makes one try to piece […]
I didnt expect much from this movie as soon as i learnt it was hacking based , i mean boring. There isnt anything left there to see already. Havent we all watched too much of 24 already. After 24 everything seems more or less been there seen that. But still Die Hard […]
Blue Velvet is not your average rental which you can just pickup watch & forget about it a few days down the line. Few movies can stay as vivid in memory as Blue Velvet, it really does stick with you for life. I for one have seen this movie as many times possible & each […]
Im big on horror movies, specially anything from stephen king & usually i am disappointed with movie adaptations of his work. 1408 is short story from king’s 14 Dark Tales (and a very fine one at that) With most horror movies going in for too much CGI or too much blood / gore to […]
There has been a spate of multiple leads comedies lately, some worked, most didnt & almost all were equally bad. Dhamaal is actually no exception. There are bad movies , there are movies that are so bad that they are good but dhamaal is absolutely on another level of bad. And the worst part […]
Ocean’s thirteen might just be the ocean’s triology’s best movie yet. Everyone loved Ocean’s Eleven, it was quircky, fast paced & very slick , something which are much used to for a Soderbergh movie. Oceans’s twelve had a sort of a mixed response , though it did really well at the box office setting up […]
Knocked up did sound to me like just another standard american comedy movie with a few crude jokes here there but it was directed by Judd Apatow whose “The 40 Year Old Virgin” was howlarious.
Knocked up works because the situations are absolutely something one can totally relate to. The jokes range from ribticklingly […]
