How is this place still operating!

Went to the Koramangala branch on 23-Jan-2012. Thought it would be a nice surprise if I drag my wife out of office early one evening and take her to a nice pampering session. Little did I know the horrors that awaited us. We decided to have a face cleanup first. They led us to the rooms that ...Read more

Thanks for the advice gemofaguy. I'll keep that in mind for my future reviews!

Reviewed Sacred Games - Vikram Chandra

An absorbing saga thats now etched in my mind

I had never read a book by Vikram Chandra before, so when I picked up 'Sacred Games', I did it with no expectation at all. And it was a heavy book to pick - it totals 1100 pages. But my interest piqued the more I read. The books opens with the introduction of Sartaj Singh, a Sikh Inspector. T...Read more

Watch this one for Hoffman

I've been a huge fan of Dustin Hoffman ever since I saw'Kramer vs Kramer' and'Tootsie'. And with this 2009 movie, Hoffman proves that he is still a pleasure to watch. Hoffman plays a somewhat awkward musician, who would rather be performing for the crowds, but actually composes music for adve...Read more

Reviewed The Unborn Movie

Nonsensical & avoidable

What drew me to this movie? Firstly, I'm a horror movie buff. Secondly, Odette Yustman - the actress who looked so hot in'Transformers' &'Cloverfield'. But perhaps, I was so enamored by her looks in Transformers that I did not realise that she cannot act. Not one bit. And this movie proves it. ...Read more

An important, moving story..

Was surprised that there wasn't a single review for this movie, so decided to do something about it. Set in 1939, during the Second World War, this movie tells the real life story of the Bielski Brothers. The story starts with the Nazi invading and occupying their Polish village. The 2 brothe...Read more

Well, Pritish Nandy bought the movie rights for the Korean film, So calling this a complete rip-off wouldn't be right!

A brilliant review! I totally agree with you. The main drawback of this movie is that it is so darn unconvincing.

RedBus sucks
Redbus

Well, it was the reverse for me! I was given a ticket for 8, but when I called up the bus operators to find out. I was told that the bus would be leaving at 5:30! I wouldn't discourage people from using the Redbus service though. Just to be careful and double check the departure timing. I have bo...oked using Redbus a total of 4 times. And all the 4 times I had booked for an a/c coach. And twice it turned out to be non a/c. I didnt complain because it was cold enough and the bus was actually quite neat. But thats just another thing you should watch out for.Read More

Quantum of regret; quantum of disaster
Quantum Of Solace Movie

Well...firstly, QoS is not adapted from an Ian Fleming novel. Secondly, I disagree when you say that the movie did not have any story/plot. This movie took off where Casino Royale left off. But yes, a movie in a series like this one should stand by itself and should not depend on the audience havin...g seen an earlier movie. After reading your review, it looks like you hadn't watched Casino Royale. In that case, i dont blame you at all. Even I would have been lost if I hadn't seen Casino Royale. Would be wondering what the ruskus was all about!Read More

Great Actors and a decent plot..

The Coen brothers are back after their oscar winning'No Country for Old Men'. I was looking forward to this movie very eagerly ever since I first saw the trailer. I just couldnt wait to see George Clooney, Brad Pitt and John Malkovich share screen-space together. The rave reviews that this movie...Read more

Ok, first things first. You need to have seen Casino Royale(and remember it quite well) before seeing this one. Cause this one starts off exactly where Royale left off. While its not as good as Casino Royale, QoS will still keep you glued to your seats. The story is pretty intricate and compl...Read more

Bangalore: More Hip Hop Less Infrastructure
Bangalore Police

If you read my earlier comment carefully, you'll see that no where am I supporting Bangalore or sounding 'pampered' about being in Bangalore. All I am saying is that this is a site for reviewing products/services, not a site to air out prejudices. Cities like Bangalore and Mumbai are bound to ...have more population from other states than localites. Thats because people like *YOU* choose to come and work here. Show a little appreciation.Read More

Stop generalising. Saying things like 'Bangalore Sucks' or that Bangaloreans are 'good for nothing' does nothing except insult our intelligence. You can always leave Bangalore and never come back. Go back to Delhi/Gurgaon.
