Bruce Almighty - A welcome summer refresher.... Bruce Almighty Movie
Hi, Everytime I read your reviews I feel jealous … of the manner in which you can convey so much with the utmost stringency in the usage of words … they rightfully said that brevity is the soul of wit. Thanks for the review … it definitely was informative and may...be I shall watch the movie .. actually Jim carry had become so very predictable and stereotyped right from Mask that I had stopped watching his movies …. But where did you see the movie ? I mean where is it still on in Mumbai ? Read More

Hardcore truth City Of Joy, The - Dominique Lapierre
Yes, this is really a well written book by Dominique Lapierre, probably only second best to the FREEDOM AT MIDNIGHT. And as is expected from Lapierre, he is amazingly prosaic in his description of the life in Calcutta in general and the rickshaw-puller in specific. And I also agree with Ranjit; DO N...OT SEE THE MOVIE. They have not been able to do justice to the novel. Read it to enjoy it. And Ranjit, a very well written review.Read More
KAANTE - A Thorny Experience. Kaante
Very well written. Reading your review was a very pleasant experience as the same was not long drawn out and boring. Precise and brief was what it was. While at the same time, it did not fail to bring out the intrinsic features of the movie. I too have seen it and I must say that the performance ...by Mahesh Manjerekar was absolutely AMAZING ..... Keep writing more such reviews. Ciao ShameekRead More

Marriages R not made on TV!!! Kahin Na Kahin Koi Hai
I had noticed in the few episodes that I had seen, that the participants were taking more interest in Madhuri rather than in each other. A very disgusting show and thank god the same has been given a decent burial Shameek

Buying 2nd Hand Cars
(Updated Dec 14, 2002 10:55 AM)
Once I decided to go in for a second hand car, I spent hours on the net, leafing religiously through auto magazines and generally chatting with the auto mechanics. With my newfound knowledge, I started checking out cars, once I was certain about the make, model and the year of manufacture. And o...Read more

Not that bad'' Devdas - New
Yes, in isolation this is a good movie. What I mean is that if the plot had been an original one, thwn yes, it would have been a smashing one. However, since the plot is a borrowed one, and also because it is one of the most celebrated Bengali novels, Bengalis will tend to be a tad biased on the... film. Nevertheless, the review is short and neatly written. ShameekRead More

Gods Own Country Kerala - General
Hi, Well written review Vinieth. What I liked best was the fact that you reflected more on the personal feelings and experiences, including the nostalgia. These are the little things in a review, which make it worth reading. Keep up the good work. Hope to see more such reviews. Shameek

<b>The Origin</b> I hail from a sleepy little town, Siliguri, set in the foothills of... the <i>Terai</i>. It was on the 12th of December that I graced the earth with my presence!!! I have heard from my grandmother as well as from my parents that that I never did cause any problems in my childhood. Infact, I was supposed to be quite a good kid with an extraordinary preference for food. But everything changed while I was in the process of growing up. I turned out to be a real pest. <b>The Adolescence & Youth</b> I did my schooling from the Don Bosco School, Calcutta followed by stints at the Don Bosco School, Siliguri and the Bani Mandir High School. However this does not mean that I used to be kicked out, but the truth is that my dad had a transferable job. I finished my college (B.Com. Hons.) from Siliguri itself and without any modesty, let me point out that I stood first in the B.Com (Hons.) Examination in the University of North Bengal in the year 1996. (Trust me, I really did). Then I went down to Goa for a PGDBM (Finance) and learnt a hell lot of <i>funda</i> on Cost-Cutting-Techniques. Accordingly, I brush my teeth once in a fortnight and take a bath once in a month. I wash my clothes once every 6 months. See, it saves cost!! <b>My Job</b> And now I am working as a Manager for a bank. Don't ask me how I made it though. I guess the recruiters were so tired with me, that the best way to get rid of me (they figured out) was to recruit me. I love my job. My only regret is that it is so sophisticated an environment, that I cannot put to practice my favourite hobby -- digging my nose. Hence, everyday, after lunch, I go down for a walk in the desolate lanes of the Bandra Kurla Complex, have a fag and religiously dig my nose to my heart's content. When people ask me as to what I do, I put on a very serious face and answer, <i>troubleshooting</i>, a ''global futta''(something a PGDBM always teaches you). Whenever someone comes to me with a problem, I listen to it, do a lot of <i>hummmm</i> & <i>haaaa</i>, apparently put on my 'thinking cap' and ostensibly cogitate on the 'problem' with a concentration that would have put Einstein to shame. In reality, I try to catch the eye of the <i>Pretty Li'lle Thing</i>, sitting right beside me. <b>Ishq-Wishyk, Pyaar-Vyaar</b> Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah !!! There are so many!!! But wouldn’t want to disclose them, for the fear that my wife (who happens to be an ardent member of mouthshut too) might come across the same. But seriously, I met my wife way back in 1991 and finally we got married in Jan this year (2002). . When I was in school, everything other than <i>studies</i> interested me. Now that I am working with a Private Sector Bank, everything other than <i>work</i> interests me. But seriously, I like travelling, reading (mostly everything), sketching (sometimes), listening to music and day dreaming. I am a tad choosy about music and I freak out on Ghazals by Ghulam Ali. Among the english songs, I am crazy about Don Williams, Don Mac'Lean, Jim Reeves, Neil Diamaond, Neil Sedaka, Ingelbert Humperdink and Neil Armstrong. <i>Oh Boy !! I could go on and on.</i>Read More
