3 Idiots are 3 geniuses - Movie review

3 Idiots Movie Review:
Idiot suddenly became a cool word! If someone is called idiot from now
on the person will smile back and say thank you straight from the
heart. That's what Aamir, Madhavan and Sharman have done to the word.
And if you find an amendment in the meaning of 'Idiot' in the English
dictionaries, do not be surprised.

My friend recently told me how she was worried about her little one
picking up swear words as harmless as saala. But after watching this
movie I wonder if she would mind him saying the five letter word.
Coming to the movie, everything is just perfect and balanced. While
some hilarious scenes (chatur's speech, ragging, pricey fiance) make
you laugh until you cry, the others make you feel very emotional. I
really think anyone could have replaced Kareena, she does not have
much to do in the movie, though she acts good. Chatur gets much more
importance than her and his presence works the magic. There are some
subtle messages about excessive pressure on students and doing what
your heart says. Every scene is worth watching and every dialogue is
written to perfection. You can easily watch 3 Idiots at least thrice
in theatres coz with this movie, ALL IS WELL!

Radio Review: Watch Radio at home, not theatres!

“Once upon a time there was a movie called Radio… Was it called Radio or tape recorder? Well, something of that sort. And by the way, Himesh Reshammiya starred in the film.”

“Did he? But I thought he was a singer.”

“Well yes, he did well as long as he made people HEAR his songs on the radio. Then, he thought of making people SEE him in Radio, but people wisely preferred to keep their eyes shut.”

“So did people not watch Himesh Reshammiya’s Radio movie at all?”

“Well, some did. But they waited for the Radio to be premiered on television just to find out what exactly Himesh Reshammiya did (or did not do) in the movie.”

“And what did they conclude?”

“Himesh acted much better than his earlier films. But then, Radio did not do quite well. So people were glad they did not spend money on exorbitant movie tickets. And then common sense says – radio is not meant to be seen.”

1 Blue film you can watch with parents

You might not even say ‘blue film’ in presence of your parents. But then times are changing.

One of the best ways to spend time with your parents is watching a movie together. And if you are bored of watching the typical movies with them, try watching this Blue film. Trust me, you all will love it ;)

Agyaat Review – Meaning of the film’s name gives the message

Agyaat means “unknown”. And frankly speaking, Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘thriller’ movie should have rather stayed agyaat to the audiences. I wonder why they make us waste our money on expensive tickets in times of recession. It’s just not me who has disliked the movie; the reviews of Agyaat are pathetic all across. People haven’t been able to figure out one good thing about the movie. It’s a pity that such films are coming from the person who gave us Rangeela, Satya, Company, Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya and Road.

Kambakkht Ishq, Kambakkht Movie - Review

Kambakkht Ishq Movie Review:

It's 2:15 am, I've just returned after watching the 11 pm show of Kambakkht Ishq movie and I had to switch on my computer to pour my heart out. No, I'm not sleepy... I'm in a state of shock wondering how can I take such a horrible decision... Kambakkht mera decision to watch this movie!

When the first boring song (of course, I don't even remember what song it was) started within 15 minutes of the movie, I should have realized. When the 2nd boring song started after another 30 minutes, I should have realized. But I believe I'm being too optimistic these days.

Here’s the movie synopsis: A man and a woman hate each other. Then they realize they actually love each other. They live happily ever after. We don’t.

Acting is poor. Story too is poor… oops can it be called a story? Whatever happened to Kareena Kapoor after Jab We Met! By the way, the official website says Kareena Kapoor is playing the role of a ‘supermodel’ in Kambakkht Ishq. No she isn’t. She’s a doctor and does occasional modeling / roles in films to earn some money.

Akshay Kumar is okay and typical. He has been much better in his earlier films. Of course, he looks as fit as ever, but who cares when the movie is sick.

Javed Jaffrey appears after a few scenes giving us some respite, but then he actually has no role in the movie except ensuring that we don’t go to sleep.

I have no idea if this was Sylvester Stallone’s first appearance in a Bollywood movie, but if it was I hope he doesn’t find out that Kambakkht Ishq is a flop.

My rating of Kambakkht Ishq: 1 out of 5 (1 because of some stunts, Sylvester Stallone and a couple of times we laughed thanks to Javed)

Should you watch Kambakkht Ishq in a theatre: Hell no

What a waste: Rs 350 for 2 tickets, Rs 100 for overpriced soft drinks, Rs 70 on rickshaws, almost 3 hours and the start of a weekend… all were wasted.

Filmmakers wake up. The janta is already hit by recession, don’t torture it by such movies.

99 Movie Review - 99 Stars Cyrus, Kunal and Boman

I still need to go and watch 99, the movie that was released during the IPL season. However, here are some reviews of the movie 99 across the internet. Hope these help.

"This is probably one of Kunal's best performances to date with Cyrus and Boman lending able support. Cyrus is his typical self, with one-liners that make you laugh. His dumb hulk act is..."

"The film carries the tag line - Part Fact, Part Fiction, Pure Fun. Rarely Bollywood film tag lines live up to the expectations raised but 99 is bang on. The makers have intricately woven situations (betting scandal, mobile phone nuisance) that actually took place in 1999-2000 with a fictional story and made it extremely entertaining. This film might just end the drought multiplex audiences were subjected to. What lifts the film to a great extent are the dialogues. The one-liners are terrific and all the actors are..."

Rann - Jana Gana Rann Song Video - A Must Watch

Ever thought about rewording the National Anthem... well someone has just done it... for the sake of a movie song of course.

RGV's movie Rann will be featuring a song Jana Gana Rana based on our National Anthem. The song touches the scenario in the country with a twist in some of the words.

Btw the movie is about Amitabh Bachchan and his team of reporters led by Riteish Deshmukh fighting the system and those running it. The movie depicts the war in the newsroom which the viewer never gets to see.

Rann Cast: Amitabh Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Paresh Rawal, Gul Panag, Mohnish Behl, Rajpal Yadav

Here's the Jana Gana Rann video:

The Stoneman Murders - Indian Movie Review

"Based on a true story, The Stoneman Murders perhaps solves the long-time unsolved mystery of the Stoneman serial killer that plagued both Kolkata and Mumbai in the 1980's. Whether it does or not, it seems to be worth a watch." - excerp from myPOPKORN.com

The Stoneman Murders is a film by Bobby Bedi starring Kay Kay Menon, Vikram Gokhale, Arbaaz Khan

Billu Barber Hindi Movie Review

"Billu saw an encouraging turnout in its first day first show with majority of audience leaving the theatre looking pleased. The reactions varied from 'great movie' to 'a lovely film' to of course 'I love Shah Rukh Khan!' Many said that the film struck the right emotional chords." - excerpt from myPOPKORN.com

Dev D Movie Review

Majority of the audience called Dev D a senseless movie. However, Abhay Deol's performance attracted praises.

Luck By Chance Hindi Movie Review


New movie Luck By Chance invited a lot of expectations. And why not! After all, the Akhtars were all involved in it. It appeared that the movie will set new standards and all. And then, this film was my pick for the weekend entertainment.

Alas, the reviews however make me think twice. I was expecting a 4-5 star rating. Somehow the Luck By Chance is fetching a little below 3 stars at most reviews.

I know, I must watch it to believe it. Yet, the inflation and recession make me think twice - should I spend money on the over-priced multiplex tickets... or should I wait and watch it on television.

Will let you know my opinion in case I make up my mind to watch Luck By Chance. Until then, you can rely on this review:

Dev D trailer – Paro, Chanda and Tauba Tera Jalwa

Saw the trailer of Dev D and felt the movie must be interesting. Abhay Deol happens to pick up movies that have an interesting story. And then, the promo of the movie also promises the same. Am expecting that the movie will fare well.

Then I heard the song Tauba tera jalwa recently and got kinda addicted to it. I love how the phrase emotional atyachar (torture) is coined and used in the song. Looks like an interesting movie with a cool concept. Let’s see. Until then, enjoy the trailer.
