Bulbbul (2020)
8/10
This deserves appreciation
28 June 2020
Chup Rehna , is what our girls being taught from a very early age. A seemingly effortless fairy tale of the gone days, Bulbbul invokes the darkest part of human nature, Opression and Male supremacy. From a beautiful narration to effortless acting, #Bulbbul is a cinematic brilliance. The development of Bulbbul's character is so effortless and genuine. Though, it's a predictable tale of a Chudail creating a havoc, but a subtle, yet brilliant touch of true feminism, makes it special. Kudos to Anushka sharma for investing in projects like this. A brilliant performance by the ensemble cast of Tripti, Avinash, Paoli, Parambrata and Rahul Bose. As a director and screenplay writer, Anvita Dutt showed her brilliance. Must watch

Thappad (2020)

Cinematic Brilliance
1 March 2020
Once in a while, a director decides to create a movie which breaks social norms. We have no right to abuse someone mentally or physically, even if it is just a single episode and it's better to part ways. First of all thanks to Anubhav sinha for creating such a flawless movie. The movie is well written and well directed. Every dialogues are meaningful. The beautiful part of the story is, there are too many stories weaved perfectly into a frame,which could have gone easily wrong. Each sub stories are beautiful in their own ways. Such brilliance is rare. Coming to performances, Taapsee excelled again. It's nothing new for her. She is such a brilliant performer. Pavail gulati was perfect in his own ways. Kumud mishra, a father with a lion heart; Ratna Pathak, a mother worried about society; A regular brother ; A socially suppressed mother in law; A lawyer fighting injustice from within her family; Dia Mirza ,a single mother with a will of her own; Geetika Vidya , a maid who just wanted to be a house wife; Manav Kaul, a bully. All these characters were flawed, yet so beautiful and perfectly portrayed. This movie is about performance and a strong story with a great message.

First, I will start with a big round of applause for Hitesh Kewala. He took up the task of writting and directing and did a full justice to a topic that need acceptance. He tied every corners and presented a platter of brilliant performances. Every character had their own issues and yet they are in the same page. None of the characters or their issues lost importance. Acting wise it ticked every categories. Ayushman and Jitender , of course, did the impossible task of looking so real and absolutely in love. But my all praises are for Neena Gupta and Gajraj Rao. Maanvi Gagroo was natural. The entire ensemble cast was fantastic. The best thing is how beautifully the movie was written and how natural the performances were. Love knows no gender, it just happen between two person, two soul. You will leave the theatre with a smile and with a lot of acceptance.

Love Aaj Kal (2020)
2/10
Disaster
15 February 2020
The movie reminded me of Dear Zindagi, with Randeep Hooda mentoring Clueless Sara Ali khan, this time. While Dear Zindagi was of next level , this movie is utter nonsense. It had some degree of witch craft with Randeep Hooda's younger version being Kartik Aryan. Script less, confusing, tiring and Really what? narration, killed the already dead movie. The movie was running between two time frames and really that was visibly awkward. Kartik Aryan was poor, clearly over confident and now making me doubt his acting skills. Seeing him on screen was torture. Sara was good but I felt she could not have done anything more. There was a bundle of goodlooking guys and gals with lots of great costumes, but is it a runway show. I cannot believe Imtiaz Ali penned that script down, there was basically no script. Only saving grace was casting The Flawless Randeep Hooda. Rest U can ignore effortlessly..

Avoid.
26 January 2020
When you try to combine two movies in one because of budget issues, the result is Street Dancer 3D. They wasted the talent of Aparshakti Khurana. The movie is script less, baseless , talentless and was totally bizzare. Dance and choreography wise, everything was perfect. But tolerating a 2 hour long script less junk, is tough. Varun dhawan doesnot know how to act. They gave crutch to the most talented dancer of the lot, Puneet. Remo should stop making movies. Nora Fatehi is a brilliant dancer. This movie scores Zero in every aspect of film making. Avoid

The Shaukeens (2014)
7/10
Delightfull Shaukeens...
7 November 2014
Much Hyped...due to the newness in its concept...Shaukeen have some filthy yet amazing bone tickling performances...One thing should be kept in mind..that one m,ust watch it without comparing it with 1982 classic Shaukeen....The story revolves around three friend in 60s who were not satisfied of their personal lives and go on using each and every trick to get laid and how it got entangled with the life of a Bubbly Bronze Diva and a successful yet unsatisfied actor,whose ultimate goall is to get a national award..

Good Things: Indian movies are really doing good in case of Cinematography, screenplay and other Editing Technicalities...Exotic locations, those peacocks, sea beaches and Side views were pretty..Now what was really good were some of the background scores they used throughout the movie...Among the Songs, only Manali Trance was new and different, rest even doesn't count..Those About the stars of the show...Three friends who played their character with so much lust and vulgarity, that justified the title of the flick...Anupam Kher, an actor per excellence, the half grimacing, frontal furrowed look he mantained throughout the movie, were just funny and hilarious. The overconfident Playboy, Anu Kapoor is indeed a playboy and charmer And the third of the trio Mr.Mishra aka Pinky, he is the best of the lot...His whole body was dipped in lust and more lust...His eye expressions, lip movements were just so perfectly lusty, that a cop can throw him behind bars anytime, just going by his expressions...The conversation between the trio whether it is regarding the swim trunks or getting an escort were perfectly timed and brilliantly performed...And My My Liza Aka Ahana the role was made for u only gal...Perfect acting, with all those touches of dumbness and that stalker attitude and her obsession for Facebook, made the flick more hilarious...Gaurav Gera and Cyrus need special mentioning, they were good...

Bad Points: Though Akshay tried to make fun out of himself...but those portions were loosely woven and little bit lacking in Fun quota..The end was not so grippy....

But inspite of those bad points...The Shaukeens is a watchable trade....Its fresh...

The Judge (2014)
8/10
The Judge: Justified its name....
28 October 2014
There are only few movies, which contain such a strong content, that overshadow the effort of the actors....But Judge, is a movie of those rare types, where inspite of having a great story...Robert Downey Jr. gave the best performance of his career....Robert Duvall overshadowed all his previous performances....Feeling of Guilt, remorse, suppressed anger, unexpressed love and some rare emotoins are woven together in this story by Nick an David..

A simple story, Beginning with A carefree Yet successful, and erratic Defense attorney,'HANK", gradually got entangled in those crititcal and overwhelming emotions with such a ease that audience will be carried away along with the current..The most interesting thing is the conflict yet admiration between two opposite yet Cunningly similar characters, judge Palmer and his Second son Hank...

While Robert Duval was strong in his role, Robert Downey was Naturally fitting into the story...Secodly, those dialouges, ahh, after such a long time, dialouges were effective and at some place overwhelming..

Cinematography was okay...there was nothing much to do...Music was pointless...

What i want to point out is, Such story and performances are indeed Oscar winning Pieces.....As a Movie person, Such movies are food for soul...

Happy New Year (I) (2014)
5/10
Happy New Year: Nothing to be Happy About
25 October 2014
Umm...What to say....Okay First GOOD THINGS: Exotic Dubai and its palm beach was there in the first Scene That can make you go Ga Ga...Location Perfect....Next Good thing was The music and Deepika Padukone was like a masterpiece and Danced perfectly...Hats off Girl...Third was Boman Irani and Abhishek Bachhan....They are the one who acted Literally...Some minute details which really made me surprised were The Two Dummy Girls drapped in red Flowy Schiffon on the either side of the finale Dance stage and Deepika's eyes when Sharukh entered in the dance scene with all those blasts and Dazzles, that was reflecting in her eyes which made them sparkling...Another Fun addition was Sajid Khan....There were indeed some scenes which tickled my funny bones...Choreography of Lovely and Deepika's portion in finale dance were excellent and Just flawless...

Bad Points: Lets start...The story was that of a silly four year old kid...all predictable and monotonous...Though all of the entries were quite elaborated, but except that of Deepika and Sonu...all were miserably low profile...It was like the actors have no scope to act...So even there were handful of good actors, the movie was miserable...Deepika's way of saying 'ART' was annoying, her fascination for English was so ironic, that she even tolerated Sharukh's blabbering; sheer stupidity. Some scenes were literally unnecessary like Roof Top Fighting..Sharukh looked Trashy with those golden Hairlocks and ripped look isn't working for him...Abhishek's Blue lenses were exotically pathetic Technicalities were average...The most ANNOYING was its length....it can't be tolerated for 3hrs and some ...there was nothing that can hold you in your seats....Farah should Really think of Directing Something meaningful and of substantial story line...

Just Avoid ans save yourself from getting Annoyed

Why it was ever told....: Dracula : Nevertold
19 October 2014
Blood, Teeth and wings make me go crazy anytime....But i wish Dracula Untold was never Told..I wont say there was No story, but the story was too weak to grab your attention...we used to know Dracula was a Damned soul with no masters...Now Dracula even have a Master vampire...How irritating is that..

Bad Points: Bad Narration, Poor Story Line up, Slow movie pace and the Last Fight scene , instead of being a blood bath , it was a silver Bath...not a single... seat grabbing, heart thumping moment...and that Vampire Master is Super annoying..

Good Points: The Penultimate Battle When Vlad Summons the bats and gave them new structures on the war field....And Luke Evans as Vlad....He is an eye grabbing invention of the Almighty...Cinematography was okay and Background Scoring was good.....

It should Have Been Dracula: Why Told....actually i have nothing to write more....It is obviously avoidable

A Movie of Many excellent performances...
13 October 2014
Went to the Theatre with a concept of it being a political Satire with a good ensemble cast....But it turned out to be a satire with no specification on its type ... Ekkees Topon ki salaami is a story of a common man whose last wish was to receive Ekkees Topon ki Salaami after his death....Story is as simple as it can be.....

First let me point out the faults. The way this story moved is totally unrealistic. The First Twenty minute was comprising two songs, and that too in a satire flick..Torture...In the entire movie only one song was relevant and that was Ghoor Ghoor ke....

Now The GOOD points which overlapped the faults , even the unrealistic approach to the topic..Corruption, poverty, politicians thriving on the the common people and siphoning their blood out is a common scenario in this part of the continent...So making a movie out of it is a tricky business, the director must pull out something to make it interesting, and he did that...Every actor in the movie overacted and believe me that was the Major Contributary factor that made the story a grand success...the director placed certain important issues other than the political set up in a such a delicate way...that one will simply go with the flow and can feel the seriousness of the issues, like Parents spending their entire income on their children's future or hoe living a life entirely based on honesty is the most difficult task in this era....and this list continues..

As a corrupt politician, through quirky dialogues Bhagwan Tiwarii Portrayed the reality, of how Politician thinks the more scam they can perform , the more popular they are....even they can out of shame if their co-workers possess a bigger scam in their purse..

Aditi Sharma gave one of the movie's best scene...As a PS to minister, she showed that inspite of all difficulties you have to write a perfect speech although its original narration is full of filth...I loved that conversation...

Uttara ji gave a stellar performance, She showed how Satta revolves..

And not to mention the stars of the Movie Anupamkher ji, Divyendu sharma and Neha Dhupai...per excellence...Neha Dhupia perfectly over acted her parts that was definitely needed for the movie..she is indeed talented...Anupam ji is a maestro when it comes to acting and he proved that...oh his conversation with BMC officer And his sons were so real....Divyendu sharma...boy boy ....u r a charmer and a performer....

Disappointment: Ram Sampath....the movie only needed The Ghoor Ghoor ke song...rest all were unnecessary..

Surprise: Rahil Quazi....Man u wrote excellent dialouges...

It is definitely a Watch....

Haider (2014)
9/10
Haider: A content movie acted Thoroughly and Meticulously
10 October 2014
Review: Haider: 4/5

Vishal Bharadwaj, a name, sufficient enough to point out the fact that William Shakespeare's novel would be justified in a proper way....And he did that gain....After Maqbool and Omkara...he offered us Haider....

Now what were the points in favour of his success, His almost perfect depiction of those classics, Kashmir valley itself, the sufferings of common people and an ensemble star cast mainly comprising of Tabu, kay kay menon and Irfan Khan.....Now what... could have gone against him , Shahid kapoor(last success was Kaminey) and Shraddha kapoor( a newbie)....

People were excited about Shahid's near bald look, and his psychic expressions as per the Promos.... The movie revolved around the missing of a Kashmiri surgeon accused of being a Militant, a son came back to know the reality of his father's dissapperance which lead to discovery of Some unexpected events and what happened henceforth is HAIDER all about......

Good Points: Sensitive Kashmir topic, the faces of those wretched Kashmiri people irrespective of religion, people getting Disappeared on false accusations will left you spell bound and surprisingly sad.....SHAHID SHAHID AND SHAHID...iots his show.....never expected Haider out of Shahid...but this actor nailed it and gave such a niche performance , that viewers will remember it for a long time....His acting was crafty and full of Classy endings......Shraddha had nothing much to do... Kay Kay Menon as usual delivered an expected performance, Tabu relived her Chandani Bar and Maqbool ages, she is phenomenal, Irfan is perhaps the best Dialouge deliverer of this age... Cinematography perfect, Background Scoring apt and strong, Emotions perfectly portrayed, Direction Applausable..Bulbul is such a good number

Bad Points: a particular scene/song in a graveyard was out of my understanding level....

Rest a Dreamy touchy tale...of Loss and Suffering....MUST WATCH....

Khoobsurat (2014)
7/10
Simple and Funny script....Key for its Success
23 September 2014
Sonam/Fawad's Khoobsurat will stole your heart because of its good acting, fresh and quirky dialogues, and a nice gorgeous set...

Mili Chakroborty, enters into a royal family, controlled by a strict disciplined Maharani(Ratna Pathak Shah), to treat her grieving husband in wheel chair. Though According to her the young Prince is Khadus(Fawad Khan), but how she gelled up and become a part of this over disciplined Family, is Khoobsorat all about...

Good Points: 1) Acting- Sonam as Mili is a treat to watch, Simple, bubbly, carefree Sonam, maturing as an actor and was quite convincing. She looked gorgeous in every costume, Her Portrayal was so simple, that you will fall in love with Mili...And the way she delivered Dialouges were utterly Cute.. Kiron Kher as Manju is a typical punjabi lady who never thinks twice before using any damn word..Her comic timing was perfect and she was the life of the entire movie. She carried the role so perfectly as if it was made for her, wonderful actress she is. her conversation with Mili will tickle you again and again. A Desirable mom... Ratna Pathak Shah, as usual a perfect choice for a Sophisticated, well dressed , discipline freak, Strict Maharani...Her expression, her way of Saying 'ANTIQUE' is so perfect, She was a perfect contrast for Kiron Kher.. Fawad Khan, Handsome, perfect expression, Subtle acting are some words that will describe the actor from over the border..He was perfect as a prince...who tried to control her lust/love for Mili throughout the movie in a Strict and Sophisticated way...ha ha ..funny...his mute conversations with Mili were one of those many funny parts... Aditi Hayderi, Pretty as hell..

2)Dialouges: The charm of the entire movie were dialouges...they were perfect, full of one liner punches, ticklish and fresh...they will keep you involved throughout the movie

3) Background: one of the best Set I have seen in recent time movies...it was remarkable and mesmerizing..

4) Music: each and every Score are good and perfect for every situation...engine ki seeti and maa ka phone are funny and fab..

5) Costumes: Oh my my... Pretty Pretty Pretty..

Bad Points: The story was predictable and was loosing its pace in the second half for around 15-16 minutes...

U can seriously Go and watch it and will come out laughing....

Daawat-e-Ishq (2014)
5/10
Nothing Delicious.....actors saved the day....
19 September 2014
Habib Faisal's directorial venture under Yash raj's banner was supposed to be a colourful and yummy treat for the viewers, with.a formidable star cast of aditya,Parineeti and Anupam kher. But what a disappointment it was,If someone saved the day;then it was the star cast who acted excellent in this story less and poorly directed flick. Director tried to bring the Dowry system into limelight through a chirpy and light hearted story, but he failed. The Story started with Bap-Beti's conversation which was good, dailouges were nice and was carrying a message.Karan Wahi debuted in a nice way and did justice to his part. The story revolved round a girl, who tired of getting rejected due to Dowry, tried to turn the things around by taking money from rich guys in name of Dowry assault. Her course led her to a Bright colored Chef,Aditya roy Kapur, whose definition of love was different and surprising...How she conned him and how they fall in love is what Dawat-E-Ishq all about.

Parineeti again turned out to be a power house performer, with perfect timing and expressions.Aditya was the only fun element in the movie, he was Desi, Lover, chef and a carefree persona.Anupam kher's role was very okayish.

Direction and Script are very poor; music was inappropriate except the Title track Dawat-e0ishq by Javed and Sunidhi.

Set and costumes were good as was expected from a Yash Raj movie. What could be a mouth watering spicy Golgappa, turned out to be a tasteless Cucumber soup.

Can watch it for Aditya and Parineeti's performance...

A story well captivating and darkly detailed.....
19 September 2014
The movie banked in with such a lead that most of us would die to see what Dylan aka Styles do in this novel depiction..Believe me the confused confident curious attitude of our teen wolf Star , worked here too...

Glade was a Habitable place, created in the middle of a evershifting Maze inhabited by mysterious(never seen) creatures. group of teens struggling to survive inside the glades, met a disoriented Thomas who , ever since his visit, starts u...nveilling the secrets of the maze with the help of Runners...To add up the complication a girl named teresa was sent as the last one...From there how they embark upon the journey to freed themselves is what Maze Runner All about....Teen oriented movie with a teen starcast, gave a performance so good and observable that The movie will survive the Box Office...

Good Points: 1)A fresh starcast , with some brilliant performances 2)A story which was well captivating and grippy, at no point it was loose, from the first scene it will hold you back and will keep you surprising till the end...and is refreshingly dark....Much better than the book....It seemed more detailed... 3)The set was the best part, what a creation 4)Cinematography well carried out 5)Sound effects were perfect and gave the movie that extra punch...

Bad Points: 1) The end was abrupt

It's a watchable trade......After a long time , a performance based movie from Hollywood...

Finding Fanny (2014)
8/10
Finding Fanny is all about being Fresh..... :)
12 September 2014
Finding Fanny: 4/5

Now for every Film crazy personalities....who wanna go and watch movie with their brains in situ.....Finding Fanny is a treat....When commercial directors, use their age old policies of action, song, item and drama......Homi Adjania....again justified his name.....A movie based on Story (I wanna exaggerate the term 'Story') and some subtle and breath taking acting Finding Fanny... is sure to stole youur heart.....It is So fresh and airy,that every character looked lively and new....So a cute goan village girl, making an attempt to give her old friend Fernando his long lost love, took upon a journey with five mad men and a Cat....and what happens next..is FINDING FANNY...

The film is gripy from the first scene, how they introduced Naseer sahab was really awesome...not only in case of Naseer sahab, the director introduced each and every character in a new and fascinating way....When there is an ensemble of such huge talents like Naseer Sahab, the mighty Pankaj kapoor and ever talented Dimple Kapadia with the newbie talent house Deepika and Arjun, one can expect that there will be a chaos....but no...instead each and every character will leave his/her mark on your mind....The First part was studded with some one liner intelligent comedy and some breathtaking acting by Naseer Sahab...While the second part melted with the flow though a little bit dragged to show Arjun and Deepika's romance...

Fernando(Naseer sahab): Never missing a beat, he portrayed a cute romeo who waited for his lover for 46 years..and still attend choir with children...what a show...

Rosie(Dimple): Old , Bossy, Grumpy and a gal with an incredible sense of fashion in a hilarious way....was the center of a master piece painting...indeed masterpiece....Her act was flawless especially the scene with Naseer and Pankaj.....and her love for the cat...my good

Diego(Pankaj): A man who earned applause over the years for his acting supremacy, won't disappoint u....His role was that of a lusty man, his lust for Rosie and her Physicalities was although very obvious, but the age old actor pulled it back and it never crossed the line of Vulgarity, A pure talent...

Deepika: She proved that she have matured as an actress of top notch...she was fresh, her acting was unforced and she flowed throughout the movie like a star....there were many places where she will stole your heart..like while listening to Naseer from her Balcony, then her scene with Arjun in the field....and many more....

Arjun(Savio): Aha man man, among all these celebrities, this relatively newbie, indeed, acted what was expected out of him...Never crossing the perimeters, just bang on spot each and every time...

Cat: It will engage you all even after dying...Isn't it Funny.... Going into details, Cinematography, background will surely attract your attention...it is indeed serene,,,The background music scoring was perfect for the movie..... Direction....Class apart.....

In short.....don't miss Fanny...Just Go....

Mary Kom (2014)
8/10
Magnificent Mary...
5 September 2014
Every Husband should be like him....and every one should be like Her....THe Magnificent Mary......

I went to watch the movie with a feeling that it will be a disappointment...Coz the promos were way to commercialised...But Just like M C Mary Kom.....The movie came out to be a huge surprise....The barfee gal...again showed....no one could have portrayed the living legend better....Set on the background of beautiful Manipur, the movie started with a pregnant mary being rushed to hospital by her husband Amisdt riot...It took a flashback, where a wild Manipuri girl,bashing guys, was trying to have a name in the male dominated society.....Chungnejiang was wild, not focused and raw...Priyanka never missed a single part to portray the legend's wilderness..From a farmer to World champion...It was never an easy task...Co-incidence bought that wild lady to the boxing arena, where her stubborness earned her a place in boxing...from there she was coached by yet another Stubborn but levelheaded coach of Manipuri boxing fed....She won back to back three world championship....got married, had kids and was forgotten...But no one can stop legends...with the help of yet another magnificent man, her husband, She fought back to earn a name, her name, her place....From there she won two more world championship and to make us very proud,She won India her first Olympic female Bronze medal in boxing at 2012....

With such an inspiring story, magnificent star cast, appropriate songs, Dropdead gorgeous background and those essence from My NorthEast...Indeed the movie was grand....ANd by the end scene , I promise when u will stand up for the national anthem , u will shed tears of joy....and pride...Mary Kom is all about Struggle and Survival... Director Umang, Did a fabulous job..Screenplay was way better

KISIKO ITNA BHI MAT DARAO...KE WOH DARNA HI BHOOL JAE.... A mother, A Wife, A fighter, A multiple time world champion and olympic medalist.....she is indeed Magnificent Mary....

Kick (2014)
7/10
A Paisa Wasool Entartainer...
25 July 2014
Fullon Paisa Vasool entertainer...where u can whistle, woot, clap, Shout and do all sort of stuffs coz the movie is a Hard core entertainer....After a Disgusting JAI HO, Salman rose to his standards again, After a long time it is indeed a Salman khan movie. Entartainment, action, smile, emotions, sheer rawness everything was there...

While the movie begins with a nerdy yet perfectly Hot Jacqueline Fernandez, with red lip makeup and that side cut hairs; It ended with the most unexpected 15th November..... In between, the first part was fun , thrilling, and enjoyable....Second part took me by surprise, good performances by Randeep and Nawaz and in some scene Even Salman really acted (acting wise) and it made the second part acting wise better, Why Devi lal Became Devil was touchy and different..

Jacqueline is definitely hot , classy, elegant and is definitely a commercial star....She complemented Salman well...in Jumme ki Rat she stole my heart with those moves...

Nargis was a sexy edition...

SPOILERS: Like all Salman khan Flick, no definite story line..some bizarre action scene like walking in-front of a running train, jumping from 50 storied tower and many more...Keep ur brains home and u can enjoy it thoroughly.....

Music is good and Himesh did a great job, ChoreogrAphy perfect especially The Item song Yaar na mile to mar jawa....Costume wise they experimented with nice Full length dresses on Jacqueline....

Moral: Even a Smile can Give u a KICK...Kick really makes your life lively.... THUMBS UP......WAtch it...

Hate Story 2 (2014)
7/10
Surveen Outshined Paoli: The Tale of Vengeance continues...
19 July 2014
THE SAGA OF Vengeance continues.....Spoilers first....Unlike the First part which had a very gripping story...This tale of Seduction, drama and revenge was lacking in that department slightly...Although the story was not good as the first part...But it was way better than the first...Surveen chawla out shined Paoli Dam....Surveen was the ultimate seductress, a girl out there with a mission to destroy everyone who ever attempted to spoil her life....

...The actors acted almost perfectly, every emotions starting from Seduction to Rage played very well. From a Sultry Bomb in flaunting Shorts to a gal in leathers carrying a gun, Surveen was eye grabbing...Sushant played an excellent Antagonist...Jay Bhanushali with his chocolaty romantic avatar complemented Surveen nicely....The Revenge murder Sequences were well planned and cold blooded....as if it was her only objective....The Girl who saw death so closely, was way above fear and pain; and surveen fitted in that role with an ease...." Sapne ko Haqiqat banane ki Izazat bhi hai, Jaroorat bhi aur Chahat bhi"---Best Dialouge...The Music Score is Good..

N.B: Sunny Leonne and Pink Lips both were trashy...

Go and watch it for performance once...Its Indeed An EROTIC THRILLER....all PRAISES for Surveen..

Definitely Not KAHAANI.....but an entertainer....
17 July 2014
Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhaniya.... 3.5/5 Before you go and grab your seat....please keep your brain under your sheets.....An Entartainer...Paisa Vasool.....Movie...It is....

...Good Points: The punches are simple but very effective...Varun Dhawan really knows how to pull up punch lines....Inhereted ...indeed.....My My Alia....u are constantly winning my praises again and again...Gal u can act...and with those cute expressions,.....u stole the show...."Main Shadi karungi toh Designer Lehenga pehenke krungi"....Costumes....Background...Set.....omg...typical KJo movie....Lovely, gorgeous, stylish......I was laughing madly throughout the movie...good thing was..the punch lines were placed at regular interval giving you time to recover than again burst out into laughter...Good Direction ....Music was very fresh..all songs were equally good and different.....least good being Saturday...which is already a chart buster...so u can imagine....The supporting cast was too good....too good...Claps and applause for them...esp...Shonty and Poplu....They were really good....Beside it has more funny Stuffs..

Bad Points: Again a no story show....Its possible only in Hindi Movies that a Designer Lehenga can create a 2hr script...lol...Some places were overly acted upon...especially Varun Dhawan..did a few mistake.....

But It is a fun ride.....Go for IT...i may be watching it for second time....OOPS M SURE....paisa wasool....

A Saga Well told: Strong and Justified
13 July 2014
Dawn of Planet Of Apes: 8/10 While most of the sequels end up being Sloppy, this particular edition leaves us stunned , spell bound and amazed...The director made every possible moves to pull out the best possible story...

A saga well told.. From excellent imagination, perfect visual effects, the movie offers its viewers everything that is needed to make it a perfect edition to the Ape series...It started with The normal instinct of survival...struggle for survival....where the Protagonist Ceaser attacks a herd of Antelope , followed by a short Clash with a grizzly...Then The movie beautifully portrayed Bonding, family ties, love , affection,...Words were less, but gestures and emotions were so strong, that the movie basically never needed those Subtitles.....everything was clear from the gestures...While they thought the human race were destroyed, a small coven still survived and in an attempt to survive the humans invaded the apes teritorry....Starting or fueling the old Rivalry....From there the movie Took a amazing sharp turn...when it changed its narration from a simple sober tale to an extravaganza of clash, action and thrill all woven perfectly together...The small Short DIalouges exchanged between the apes and humans were so impactful , that u can just congratulate the team for those stunning scenes....Ceaser returned to his human home, and his love for human, restored the long lost faith..CLASH with his own kind, to restore peace ...leading to a gradual and an obvious finish where we all end up demanding for more.."APES START THE WAR,HUMAN WON'T FORGIVE" The dailouge was simple but it was the best one...stole my heart...A Total Worthy Watch.....A movie which exeled in some many ways......And left u hungry for more.....Best edition OF the series......

Inshort what made the movie very special was A perfect Story, great imagination, An awesome and apt background scoring, The set and these all made the story a true and a real journey worth watching...Applause for the team....

Bobby Jasoos (2014)
8/10
Two and Half Month Draught was over
4 July 2014
...........Bobbie Jasoos:3.75/5 Finally the 2 and a half month drought was over.....After 2 states, I went in and out of the theaters to watch something new and good....but disappointed....This time juss keeping in mind that it is a Vidya Balan starer, I started watching the movie, It started Tickling me, giggles, sometime louder ones escaped my lips....so the first part was so full of laughter doses...It was all about Vidya Balan and her acting credibilities.....she wooed me again, simple lines bought to perfection by the Stunner Vidya....As the story Proceeds, It maintains its pace between comedy and the detective part. The twist and turns were simple but created perfectly, and were beautifully portrayed by Vidya.....The Story was simple and subtle, Mughalpuri was Colorful...But Ali Fazal was Like a Ace ....He should get more Films....The pairing was So beautiful, that their age difference was hardly noticeable.....She was Supported by an excellent Supporting star cast Of Supriya Pathak, Zarina Wahab, Tanvi Azmi and Rajesh Gupta...Each and every one of the Supporting crew acted really well.....Director Samar Seikh Did a good job....Applause...Among the tracks....Sweety an Arziyaan my favorites....

Definitely a Must watch.....For Vidya Dons various Disguises and roams around MughalPuri with grace.....

The Villain (2014)
6/10
Ek Villain: Thriller having No thrill...
27 June 2014
Will try Not to be too harsh....But The much hyped movie of this year landed with a even bigger thud......I couldn't understand whether it was Ashiqui Part 3 or entirely a new movie.....or we can say an incompetent version of so many movies clumped together...while i was looking for something extra edgy...the movie was quite as anyone would have expected....There was basically no sto...ry ....and it was so disappointing...Mohit Suri's direction was terrible.....the narration was confusing and running haphazardly....Mr.ceaser with his accent was nothing more than a stand up comedian who failed to give u laughter doses even....The Police officer was the mos unnecessary edition.....what was inside Mohit's mind when he scripted for that role, i wonder....

Now what saved the movie......ACTING.....AND BEST MUSIC SCORES OF THE YEAR....Shraddha Kapoor surely knows how to act...she was simple, strong, edgy, chirpy, and was having perfect timing....she was so natural both in looks and acting, loved her. Siddharth,on the other hand , was able to break free of her chocolaty image and was stunning as angry young man with those long legs, rugged looks, cold voice , he was perfect for the role. What came out as a big surprise was RIteish, who delivered a great piece and can cherish it throughout his acting career...Thee were few scenes in the beginning, where the romance was blooming, which made me shed a few drops out of joy and love. Those scenes were so beautiful and perfect...every boy and girl would love to see themselves in their positions....beautifully picturised....like carrying her out of the hospital, those moments on hill top,catching butterfly, collecting pearls and many more....those scenes made me happy...and yes Prachi Desai was quite a stunnerr in that performances

Actually what destroyed the movie, was Director's confusion about its theme...But Who is the Villain? Its for U to find out....M confused..

One Timer........Disappointed

Maleficent (2014)
9/10
Maleficent:Truly Magnifcent...
27 June 2014
Movie Review: Magnificently created rather say narrated story of a Disney Villain...Maleficent got all those Spices to steal your heart...A visual treat in itself, Maleficent turned out to be the Second best Movie of this year.....The movie will catch your attention from the very first scene which shows Lill charming Maleficent sleeping in a tree top....From there the flick never lost its charm and pace....She gradually grew up into a powerful, compassoinate Fairy Portrayed By The Charming Powerhouse Angelina....Her spirit was high, higher than her wings could carry..and She stood as the guardian and protector of the MOOR and its magical creatures...Betrayed by love...her golden heart turned into the hardest stone that ever existed and her wrath was unleashed...upon the kingdom....How she again regained that compassionate Maleficent...How a small girl moved her soul, How the kiss of true love worked.....was revealed as the movie progressed....Angelina stole the show with her expression , stances, Acting....like a water her emotions changed from love to fury and then back to love.....What an outstanding performance it was.......

Go and Watch It For ANGELINA, THE MOORS AND KISS OF TRUE LOVE....

Holiday (2014)
3/10
Trashy Overacted Movie
27 June 2014
MOvie Review: HOLIDAY: 1.75/5 Over acting, over acting and overacting.......Never expected such Rubbish Film From A. Murgadoss after Gajini....Akshay kumar again overacted as usual....If u r a masala movie lover then u can watch it.....ACTion sequences are good.....only action Sequences....mind it...Akshay's dialouges and dances ....are so overly done.....Sonakshi a showpiece.....Govinda a...n unnecessary addition....No storyline, bad editing, worst screenplay and dialouges...Music choreography and cinematography score below 1.5.....The guy playing negative role was definitely good..he acted well.....other than that....nothing was awesummm.....

A movie u can easily avoid......And the worst part...climax was so abrupt and irritating.......that I was about to die.....the other thing i liked was the idea of Killing without giving it a second thought....juss boom and its done....

Go at your own risk,....

A worthy Sequel....A worthy Franchise....
27 June 2014
Much Awaited Review: How To train Your Dragon 2: If Maleficent was spectacular....Then HTTYD2 is amazing, breathtaking, heorically fantastic, magnificent and what not....Running short of adjectives....Now Directors must take a note that Every Sequel should be like this.....Hundred times better than the Prequel.....It lived upto the expectation....Dragon, more dragon, many many more dragon...s....all colorful flying across the sky.....oops like lacrosse Vikings too invented a new game in this part....throwing a ship down the hole...lol....The identity of Secret Dragon Rider / care taker revealed....Hiccup finally met his mother....Few well crafted romantic moments captured between Stoic and his wife....Finally the great battle with an equally terrific Villain. ..and clash of the Alfas...how Hiccup lost control over Toothless...and how friendship bought them back....ahha M not gonna tell...Go and watch....

A perfect animation movie...with excellent quality of techniques being used...an exceptional story line....And Everybody's Favorite....TOOTHLESS....stole the show.....As the end Arrives...a new Viking Leader emerges with his companion who stood beside him throughout all hardships....Watch and discover...

Worth watching......Go Go and Grab a seat..... See More
