Double standards
Blood Diamond Movie

I am not sure how much Leo made and how much was made out of this movie but I would rather the issue be acknowledged in some form then ignored altogether. If cinema (quite like Indian cinema nowadays) does not address relevant issues we blame them---yet when they attempt to we also hold it against ...them.Read More

Five (and then some) Worst- - -'07 Update

This topic has been around for quite some time now and it has been more then amusing to read people write-up some of the so-called top actresses as being the worst.then again calling them amongst the'worst' is still pretty mild in my books. I decided to go ahead and add on my list of 5 based on ...Read more

Good Mish-Mash
Laadla - Bollywood

Yes---except it's only been reviewed by one person. There is a reason people are still going back and reviewing other oldies and very oldies. If they were not meant to be reviewed then they wouldn't be listed here.

Good Mish-Mash

Being fed up with the run-of-the-mill yawn yawn high-budget no-plot stuff that is released nowadays it is pleasant to catch up on movies like Laadla. Sure it has been made using all the components of many movies we've seen in the past but it still manages to hold your attention. Sridevi is a ...Read more

Room for improvement
China Airlines

I am flying this airline this summer---on my flight back there is a four hour layover in Taipei...do you know if this is sufficient to take the tour? I know when we flew Singapore they look for atleast a 6 hour layover.

An excellent movie
Umrao Jaan -1981 Bollywood

You have put it up under the wrong one...this is for the old and original UJ...not the new wanna be one.

Reviewed Guru Dutt

Thinking-Man's Actor

Many like to give the title of 'greatest showman' or 'father of Bollywood' to Raj Kapoor-which always irks me to no end :) Guru Dutt is honestly one of the best things to have happened to the Indian film industry and I am truly thankful he is not around to see what a joke the industry has become...Read more

Reviewed Amisha Patel

Should have stuck with her academics

I have always had mixed feelings about Amisha Patel having seen her on screen and also having read plenty about her in the media (mostly nothing pleasant I must add). I guess it is not up to the audience to judge their real-life personality as we don't know them at a personal level. As an act...Read more

Very nice place...pricey though...

I stayed at the ITC-Grand Mumbai this past August '06. Definitely a top-class hotel. The grand atrium that welcomes you as you walk in is very classy. I spent some time hanging around down there during my stay. The room was very nice...and the bathroom was such a welcoming change when usually yo...Read more

It is funny to me how SRK Khan gets pages of reviews and yet REAL actors like Ajay Devgan and this fellow get 1, 2, 3, or at the most 4 or 5 reviews. Helps me understand what Bollywood is all about...definitely not abt talent. I just had to come and write about this guy. What a talented guy...ex...Read more

True Talent

I too am surprised that more ppl have not written about Ajay Devgan. The previous reviews have covered a lot about him...but I thought I would just put in my two cents. He is a gift to industry and very underrated. I guess that is also because he does what he is there to do-ACT-and leaves it at ...Read more

Before I start the review I have to admit I haven't seen the MI's before this one. So I went in with no expectations or anything to compare this one to. This movie reminded me of a wannabe The Bourne Supremacy/Identity (which by the way I believe fall in a class of their own). It is an all ou...Read more

Lamhe is one of my favorite Yash Chopra films and this one comes in as a close second. Contrary to the (rubbish) recent releases from his banner this movie is what his banner used to be all about. The other reviewer has done a wonderful job summarizing the plot so won't get into it. But have to ...Read more
