Final Destination 5

FD5

Few years back, I was a fan of movies which depicted horrific deaths. Final Destination 5 does manage to bring back those back. I think that after FD2, the movies had went down hill and predictable with some nonsense way to cheat death.

I Am Kalam

i-Am-Kalam

Another movie released last week, for which I had not much hopes. As usual good reviews for others ignited the curiosity. Well, it’s a simple movie shooted out of Rajasthan capturing the cultural aspects very well and with a story preaching a message.

Captain America – The First Avenger

The release in India has been around 2 weeks delayed than the world release. You will find that’s good once you are done reading this blog. The main attraction for me was that Marvel studios had put out another superhero movie after Iron man and Thor. It’s no secret that I am a big fan [...]

Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Been late to watch this movie, simply because I didnt expect much out of it. However, I got curious when I heard good reviews about it. Well, I am thankful that, contrary to other Planet Ape movies, this movie is not about some astronaut landing in some alien planet ruled over by Apes. As to [...]

Gandhi to Hitler

Gandhi To Hitler

The movie title attracted me to this movie. But just by watching the initial 10 mintues, my opinion was made. I continued watching it hoping that the movie will throw in something to change my opinion. Never changed !! As to the pros, its only limited to the movie title and Neha Dupia’s performance.

Singham

After 2 days of failed efforts, I managed to watch Singham today. The theme is yet again Good vs Evil !! We have a Maratha superhero fighting a Mega-villain whose delivers an excellent performance and makes you really hate him. Our superhero here is no Dabang or Indra the Tiger, but does defintely make his [...]

However, the trailer doesnt give out much on what is to come.. Movie is to hit the screens in 2012. Awaiting excitedly for [...]

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara

ZNMD

The movie story is centred around 3 friends who try to recnnect with each other. This quite often left me guessing if this movie is similar to superhits like Dil Chahta hai or Rock on. Well, turned out that my guess was pretty much wrong.. The movie is kinda preachy and comes with a clear [...]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)

Hp7-2

As I walked into the theatre to catch a special screening of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2), I felt as if I had come to bid goodbye forever to an old and cherished friend. Then again, over the last 14 years the magical world of Harry Potter has permeated into our consciousness [...]

Chillar Party

ChillarParty

A children’s movie, Bollywood’s much rarely experimented genere. A movie lacking a star cast, can be success only if there is something magical in it. The decent storyline of Chillar Party, along with good performances by child actors does pack a punch. The movie portrays quite cleverly todays middle class, the children among
