A few good reviews & reviewers. Review on Five Best Reviews on MouthShut

*F**or the task of selecting my top reviews, I would like to take a few liberties, that is…er.to add –er- to review. **My favorite reviewers on MS and their best reviews.** My criteria for choosing - active writers who have been contributing heavily both in terms of quantity and quality in the last one and half months. On that basis this is my list:

*Just_did_it:** One of the best writers on MS, all his reviews are thoughtful and insightful. But what I like best about him is that he never misses rating and is always ready with good, relevant comments on most of the reviews. He has a deep analytical mind and I wish everyone at MS(including me) was as logical and rational while writing and rating reviews. Confession: I doubt weather I would have been motivated enough to continue writing without the wonderful words of encouragement that I keep receiving from him on a regular basis. *My favorite - My Experiments with Depression - https://mouthshut.com/readreview/20028-1.html

*Spookaay**: Among the current writers, I enjoy reading his reviews the most. All his reviews are packed with dollops of humor. He manages to bring in a personal element in whatever he writes. And the writing style is such, that you want to read every single word that he writes. *Best of the lot: The Theory of Evolution of  Beauty Contest-https://mouthshut.com/readreview/21141-1.html

*Satishkl:** Satya, as he likes being called is my candidate for the inclusion in star writer’s category. He has a easy, breezy style of writing which is fun to read. Even more enjoyable are the smart-alec comments that he passes after most reviews. My fav: Intense - https://mouthshut.com/readreview/18904-1.html.

*Tongue-in-Cheek:** A man of many words and a born writer. Cheeky, in just 18 days has written 22 reviews. A keen observer of everything around him, I believe that if I were to pick a pebble from road and give it to him, within an hour he would be ready with a 1000 word review on it. *My fav: My maid servant just became Miss World! - https://mouthshut.com/readreview/21563-1.html

For the fifth reviewer – I will do the usual fence-sitting and instead of selecting one, select a dozen.

*Loverboy4U:** I like frank and honest writing and can rely on Rahul to write honest, scathing reviews without any reservations.

*Pooj:** I really envy her for the number of hits and ratings she gets on her every review!

Plus **Ranran, Madlalya, Asyis, Azhar, S.Imran, Reviewer, Teena, Annu, Cousin2, Jilmil, Meleahk1, milind, niraj, nanda, Salil, Thumb-in-mouth, Pete, dhaval**  and many others.

*N**ow for some of the best reviews that I have read on MS. It was too much hard work digging out the best of the best and I managed to read only a few hundred out of thousands and out of those, I have omitted all those reviews which have been already selected by others.

“The Worst brings out the Best in us” * What could be worse than the #1 movie on my hate list – K3G. Expectedly K3G has provoked everyone to write at their venomous best.  It is difficult to pick the best one –  Suyog’s review has a better spacing and layout and so is more readable - *https://mouthshut.com/readreview/16823-1.html*, but the funniest one was curchillo99’s “Kabhi Khushi Kabhi numb(dumb)” *https://mouthshut.com/readreview/16908-1.html

Patriotism also brings out the best in us…and also the worst. So I new I would find some gem in India-General category. The best one was by Riks(Rakesh) that put more stress on global harmony than on flag-waving type of patriotism. *https://mouthshut.com/readreview/8652-1.html

I also liked few other reviews by Riks – the movie reviews on Gadar and Lagaan. The Gadar review was special for he gave a live example of how such movies feed feelings of communalism and hatredness, which is disastrous for a country like India.

Amrita’s review on the Times of India -  Love her or hate her, but you can’t ignore this fiery women. Her best was of course on Bazee.com, but this was a close second. *https://mouthshut.com/readreview/3456-1.html

Equally enjoyable was the one on the movie “Kaho Na Pyar hai” – though I don’t agree with her that Hrithik Roshan looks like a girl and is not manly. *https://mouthshut.com/readreview/5952-1.html.* This review also provoked one of the best, most sarcastic comments on her by pete_apf: https://mouthshut.com/readcomment.php?rid=5952&r=1

*And Finally the most weird review I have read on MS:*

Geddaliphe’s take on the movie “Moulin Rouge”. I initially couldn’t make any sense of it and gave it SR, but changed by opinion after a few more readings. It is outrageously funny, very imaginative – written from the viewpoint of a “lace doily covered bed” *https://mouthshut.com/readreview/21289-1.html
