sleepless in Seattle

i wanted to watch this movie for quite sometime. the title was compelling and i am a sucker for nice sensible and cute romances (even though i dont really believe in them. read previous blogs). then i got it through a friend. after watching the movie for about half an hour i somewhere along the line... dont know what happened... i think that as the movie mentions it was... MAGICAL!

it was one of those movies which imake u think that everything is alright in this world. there are no criminals, no terrorists, no bomb blasts... everything is just perfect. everything turns out to be all well in the end. that there is nothing wrong in taking chances because the world is a beautiful place to be. its how God wanted it to be. our own little heaven. there are no worries no contemplations no compromises in relationships. there is someone out there made just for you. the whole cosmic is working to set u up. there are signs all the way and they hit you right on the face guiding you to your destiny.

dont know how far it is true but for the one and three quarters of the hour the movie played i was taken into someplace where i'd love to be. my world will tick just fine and everything will fall in the right place eventually. i dont care if its reality based or not. i made me feel very good and thats what important right now.

a must watch for everyone who is confused in relations and well... everyone in general. the best date movie from the best on screen couple according to me views.

My name is Khan and i am retarted

when i started to write the review, i sat with my hands poised over the keypad and i stared at the screen trying to figure out a way describe the excruciating pain i felt in my neurons while i was watching the movie. right now the best way i can describe the movie is: "it was worse than whats your rashee". in that movie atleast there was priyanka chopra's performance to be seen and admired. it could soothe the burnt souls. but in this... i am sorry to say this but kajol literally sucked.

i really liked the concept. close to the current scenario. what the world needs. a plea from the non-terrorist Islam community. blah blah blah.

why dont people understand a movie needs to be tolerated. it should not surpass the raw minimum tolerance level. not good for health. i think that even doctors will agree with me here.

ok coming back to what happened with me in the cinema hall. there were people sitting on the concrete aisle. my heart bled for them. so much trouble and for what? but the crowd thinned considerably after intermission. i was expecting it to be a family drama which to a certain extent it was. Shahrukh khan rocked!!! he acted superbly. hmmm... he even could have been starred in Paa. that would have been quite a publicity. just a thought.

i saw the first half of the... i dont want to call that a 'movie'.

the direction was badddd.... the presentation of the movie was baddd.... people dont marry other people just because they know a new place. then it will quite a task for the travellers of discovery channel to find a mate. i am finding it really a herculean effort to actually pin point the wrongs. so i might as well give it up

sherlock holmes - christmas day

i couldnt fathom the accuracy of the characters depicted in the movie. each part was played to perfection by the artists. i liked the sets. again faultless.

i didnt know that robert downey jr. could do so well as a lead. i liked him in ally mcbeal but thats a different image altogether. jude law is... HOTTT!!! i should not elaborate on it. when i heard that he was going to be the sidekick of robert downey, i admit i was apprehensive but my wise friends all recommended me to watch the movie. so i did and may i say that i enjoyed every second of it.

the plot, the mystery, the gadgets were great. the climax was the least expected one. the movie had retained the sense of Sir Arthur all along it. right till the last scene.

the director didnt lose the essence of holmes and watson nor did he lose his touch.

i liked the movie when i was never a big fan of sherlock holmes cases

3 idiots

i loved the comedy. thats just about what i liked in the movie, the humor. being an engineering student, i could connect with it a bit and at random points. also the historical speech of Chatur had me falling off my seat because of laughter.

but...

i found the movie too unnecessarily concentrated on Amir Khan. i doubt on the existence of an all encompassing personality like that. i could not for the love of dear God, digest the scene of the delivery with all the vaccum cleaner and web cam directions.

i felt the movie was like a biography adaptation of someone unfortunately named Phunsukh Wangdu rather than depicting the pressure on the students today. consequently the "aal izz well" concept didnt exactly fit.

i dont like kareena on principle so i wont comment on that aspect.

i believe that if they had casted some younger and fresher faces and stuck to the story line of the original book then the movie would have been bigger and better. there is a place for the veterans and it definately wasnt a college movie. Rang De Basanti is history
