Thank You – review

If you liked Aneez Basmee’s No Problem, time to say Thank You. Men are dogs and women are ever faithful – This is the one liner of the movie that has been woven into a brain dead comic script and which sadly entertains you too partially. Wonder why I mentioned sadly?  Sad coz the...

Game – review

Game is a whodunit movie that is visually appealing, stylishly made but it is like watching a cricket game between Canada and Netherland in Lord’s cricket ground.  Now you can picture it! A billionaire (Anupam Kher) invites four strangers from different parts of the world to his beautiful Island in Greece. That brings together...

Being John Malkovich – A comical review

The flight had turned out to be uneventful. Good! I had caught up on my sleep while the man on right finished watching a movie on his laptop – as I gathered seeing him shutdown his lappie. He seemed pleased at something as he turned towards me and started this conversation. Man on right-...

October Sky – review

This story is about a high school kid, from West Virginia who dares to dream big. This was the time when Russia made history by launching the first satellite Sputnik in 1957, but for this kid this sight of a satellite moving across sky came as a big aspiration, a moment of connection with oneself when...

Saat Khoon Maaf – review

After watching 7 khoon maaf , the only thing I can think of saying to Priyanka Chopra is 7 sada hua movies maaf. Yes such was her power packed performance that you overlook some of her bad performances, but let’s come back to that later. A little bit of the movie Trikal, a little...

Patiala House – review

With Akshay sharing screen space with veteran star Rishi Kapoor, the film was expected to deliver a high-spirited Patiala peg and it delivers a small high if not a large high. And this world cup season, Patiala house delivers some cricketing action amidst a family drama. Definitely this is an unusual movie for Akshay,...

Dil toh Bachha hai ji – review

Dil toh bachha hai ji stirred interest much before its release thanks to the title which is borrowed from Gulzar’s hit song beginning with the same line from the movie Ishqiya.  Smart move by the reality film maker and 3 times national award winner Madhur Bhandarkar who attempts a breezy rom-com but unfortunately ends...

Man from Earth – Review

This elegant movie, though cannot be classified as science fiction precisely, sets itself apart owing to its unique simple elegant & wonderful concept. This is really quite unusual, simply lets you appreciate your own sense of logical reasoning, guiding or rather misguiding until the point where you are completely involved & lost. It’s just...

Yamla Pagla Deewana

Jats the way, Deol Ve. The Deol forces have come together this Lohri to enthrall you and surprisingly they guarantee that in most parts of the movie. Beginning the movie with the clips of good old bollywood movies that shows separated brothers and finally a happy family together,  Director Samir Karnik makes no pretensions...
