Have you ever had a dream which bothered you for a long time? Or have you ever had a dream which you have remembered forever? Or while you were asleep have you ever had a dream due to which you did a certain thing in your real life?
This is the very theme of Christopher Nolan’s movie, Inception.
Since I entered the theatre late, I don’t really know how but J manages to successfully woo Gina and they are ready to tie the knot. Now is the perfect time for J to get friendly with Gina’s family. Tony, Gina’s brother is the villain in the movie. His level of eccentricity is slightly greater than his dad’s. He’s smug, rich and a brat. His idea of fun is to step down from his chauffeur driven car, shoot some poor fellow and walk away like a badass! He makes it look so simple that I’m considering this as an alternative to Facebook to pass my time.
I have always been a fan of Abhay Deol, and look forward to his films. Maybe that’s because his movies can be harsh, in an in-your-face kind of way, and can also be very close to reality at other times. Dev D and Oye Lucky, Lucky Oye are two of his movies I’m referring to here. It was after these movies were released that I started following his movies. But, I digress… back to the movie review.
Road, Movie is based on a journey taken by Vishnu (Abhay Deol).
After a hectic week it was time to relax on the weekend, and what better way than to watch a comedy. Well that is what I was expecting the movie to be. To my disappointment, this was a badly done cocktail and, to my horror, a sheer waste of some real good actors.
The movie starts with Ajay Devgan, who happens to be a film writer, narrating a movie story. A joke lifted from a Pakistani play, which I just wished they had lifted completely, than just do a rehash.
I had a lot of expectations from the movie after watching the promos, and that just added to the disappointment. Choosing to watch Amitabh Bachchan in Rann, over Ishqiya, proved to be a wrong decision it seems. The movie could have been better with a stronger story line. The actors have done their bit, but this movie can be a classic example of what can happen when even though your actors perform well, you don’t have a good story to tell – the movie just seems ordinary.
A tweet review would be – “A visual and aesthetic treat. This marks the beginning of an era. Cameroon has done it yet again.”
Right from my cousin who’s in primary school, to my friend in college, to my NRI uncle, absolutely everyone has been mesmerized by this masterpiece. This has to be one of the very few movies that has lived up to its hype and has actually delivered more than it promised.
Knock Knock! who’s there? Loser. Loser Who?
Well I’m sure you know who I’m referring to!
With playing a loser of different losses in all of his movies, Ranbir Kapoor does it one more time in Rocket Singh – Salesman Of The Year, and somehow he manages to find a way to make this new loser look better than the others he has portrayed in the past.
Rocket Singh – Salesman of the Year revolves around the life of Harpreet Singh Bedi (Ranbir Kapoor) and his zest to become a salesman – a salesman, not the kind
So, there’s a cool-dude named Rajnikantha, and there are people who absolutely love the route his sunglasses or cigarettes take to get to their respective destinations. Among these are people who can’t stop going gaga over his invincibility. Me? I find the silliness funny. The sunglass-cigarette routine make me smile about 3 times. But, then, it gets repetitive and thus predictable and ultimately boring.
Exactly what happens in Quickgun Murugun which spoofs Rajni?
What is the purpose of cinema? Does it lie in the telling of a tale so riveting that the viewer wishes it would never end? Does it comprise of the film-maker’s vision and his desire to show it to the world? Such as it may be, should he be allowed to indulge himself in creating an oeuvre that few understand and still fewer appreciate?
These questions hit you, left, right and centre, like shrapnel flying in a combat zone, when you elect to see “Kaminey”.
Are you ready to fall in love with the ‘very concept of love’? If yes, then ‘Love Aaj Kal’ is surely the movie for you! The best part of the romantic flick is that unlike the run-of-the-mill Bollywood love sagas, young director Imtiaz Ali’s ‘Love Aaj Kal’ is completely in sync with the modern Indian society. The director has taken a more realistic approach in this film, unlike the usual love stories seen in Bollywood. In the movie, the main protagonists of the 2009-love story do not bore you with mundane talks of love and heartache; they rather present you with a mirror image of the modern day urbane youth.
