Membership to a DVD library really tempts you to call for a movie every night. But I guess getting one movie a week is what I manage. Just finished watching Death at a Funeral (absolutely hilarious) and The Bucket List (ok!). And this is how my current have-to-watch movie list looks like: Orange County Almost… Continue reading My have-to-watch movie list

Poison could have been a little sweeter
On Tuesday I went partying with cousins to Poison. It was a pre-wedding celebration for my cousin and her fiance. It was a great bonding time before sister leaves for her new world. I wish them both lots of luck and God bless them. Poison is one of the posh discotheques in Bandra supposedly run… Continue reading Poison could have been a little sweeter
Khuda Ke Liye I didn’t like it
This movie has been raved and only raved. It's indeed a powerful and bold subject for the audience to see, believe and leave an after-effect. But IMHO the production values were very poor. I think the film could do with a lot better editing. Besides Mary (the London based Muslim girl) I think the performances… Continue reading Khuda Ke Liye I didn’t like it
Movies and more movies
My determination to keep up with the movies has paid off well. I have seen quite a few of them lately. Jodha Akbar is a nice, mega production movie. I didn't find it long and it's just not boring. Go watch it for the sheer brilliance and scale with which the movie is made. And… Continue reading Movies and more movies
Vidya Balan is wonderful in Bhool Bhulaiyaa
Warning: This post is a spoiler for the film Bhool Bhulaiyaa. Please don't read further if you haven't seen this movie. The movie is not something really to write about, it's rather slow and at times gets boring. And I am not surprised why those little elements of comedy were added in there - just… Continue reading Vidya Balan is wonderful in Bhool Bhulaiyaa
Movie Review: Jab We Met
I am not a Kareena Kapoor fan and Jab We Met was not really on my To Watch list. However thanks to some friends I went along and I am glad we watched this film. Nice entertainment is what describes Jab We Met. Typical and predictable storyline: Stranger boy meets stranger girl. Lots of goof-ups,… Continue reading Movie Review: Jab We Met
Music of Om Shanti Om and Saawariya
I spent some time today listening to the music of OM SHANTI OM and SAAWARIYA. I can't really do a "music review" so I am going to just share my likes and dislikes. Om Shanti Om I was disappointed, very disappointed. I was expecting it to be better than Main Hoon Na also but I… Continue reading Music of Om Shanti Om and Saawariya
The Bourne Ultimatum: DO NOT miss this
I watched The Bourne Ultimatum and I enjoyed it very much. The third sequel in Jason Bourne's adventure this is a well directed movie. Some of the action sequences are commendable and it really amazes how the stunt directors manage to get through without any major mishaps. There are a few scenes in which I… Continue reading The Bourne Ultimatum: DO NOT miss this
thoughts from Chak De India
Last night I watched Chak De! India. Although you know early on that being a Hindi movie, the Indian team HAS to win - its the journey which really keeps you hooked. GO WATCH THIS ONE! I think Nirav took some excellent learnings from the movie and I think one of the big learning which… Continue reading thoughts from Chak De India
Bong baby scores a goal!
If I am in the mood I usually try to catch up with the day's happenings on the news between 9pm and 10pm. Last night I was amazed to see yet another piece of crap making it to the headlines and having two experts LIVE on the show to share their opinion on the same… Continue reading Bong baby scores a goal!
