Profound truths.....
Prophet, The - Kahlil Gibran

Yes, Mr Wisecrack. Have got to say that you don't quite fit in with the rest of the review...the al-qaeda comment...a little uncalled for (and quite racist), don't you think...

Love the way you start. Love the way you end. The middle could do with a little more body, esp. about the story. But all in all, well written. Maybe you could start your blog with this one!! Ekta

Promising story but doesn't live upto it!

Sushma Reddy deserves the award for the most appropriate outfit ever worn in a movie: a short black skirt with some disco top, when she has the frail task of climbing hills, white water rafting and other such tame stuff. There are many things wrong with the movie, but I am going to start with...Read more

Five stories in one!

Dark brooding frames, minimal dialogue and a serious, multi-layered plotline. Five stories have been intertwined to make one movie. And I really had to pay attention to every frame of the movie. And even, after the movie got over, I was wondering about the complexity of the whole narrative. ...Read more

Original..but not rip-roaring funny!

There are such rare glimpses of originality in Hindi cinema that it hurts me to see them not being realized to their full potential. Some comedies that have had a genuinely original story and have been dealt with amazingly deft direction are Hera Pheri and Munnabhai MBBS. But sadly, there are fe...Read more

'people will say they love it just because that's what everyone is saying...' Couldnt have agreed more with u on this one. But one reason could also be that we dont want our heroes to fail.

i liked the part where u said abt 'envy those ppl whose food arrives before urs'..and some others. however, the review borders on a lil dreamy route. and if the food was described a lil more heavenly instead of gushing abt how much u like them, would have helped and probably made more of an impact o...n the reader.

The 205th review.....boy, have I been early?

Yes, the accolades have been dished out. And so have the brickbats. I have heard a thousand opinions about Rang De Basanti. Some have loved it to the point of talking about it in blogs, articles and recommending it unabashedly. And there are others who have told the numerous flaws in the histori...Read more

''Calvin..Calvin..its me'' says Hobbes.
Fight Club (1999)

Calvin once asked Hobbes, 'why do we humans stay inside and watch tv?' Hobbes replied,' so that we don't realize how insignificant we are to the bigger picture'.

You are not your review

Keep the silly women away?????? More than your writing skills your review shows how little you know what 'silly women' like!

Reviewed Fight Club (1999)

Violence is therapy.

Fight Clubdeserves a ten-star rating. Some movies raise the bar. The Fight Club is one of them. The concept, the story, the execution, the small-small stories inside the main story.... everything is absolutely unique anda little sacred for anyone who digs originality. But, first, the story...Read more

The movie shocks- Lara Dutta is with Sanjay Dutt.

Zinda- where do I start? Should I gloss over the few minuscule good parts of the movie or simply go on about the bad parts. I think i'll start with the former since it will get over quickly. The acting is not so bad, and so is not the first half. Like all Sanjay Gupta flicks, the emphasis is ...Read more

Funnier than Hum Tum

I am surprised that the makers actually had the guts to release a film like this. Not because it has a path-breaking subject. At least not for those who are quite exposed to English cinema and are used to the norm of live-in relationships. But, it is a bold subject for people living in the inter...Read more

A movie that makes sense AND makes you laugh!

I had loved Hyderabad Blues. Was a little undecided about Rockford and downright disappointed with Bollywood Calling. Probably that had tempted my decision of not watching 3 Deewarein and Hyderabad Blues 2. However, I did go for Iqbal and I am genuinely glad that I did. Finally, here’s ...Read more

With this movie, some things have changed and some things haven’t. Amitabh Bachchan was fighting for justice twenty yrs ago. As is now. If things wouldn’t work out legally he would take the law in his own hands. Again, as is now. Also, he would go scot-free. I repeat, as is now. L...Read more

As what?? agreed, the story is absolutely true (did the Cannes guy see the same movie??) but revealing the climax was a bit too much, dont you think???
