movie mania
i have been seeing a lot of movies recently...i am not a very good critic of movies because i like very crappy movies which flop left,right and centre...i also like intellectually inspired movies in addition to intellectually challenged popcorn flicks... i like mithun movies,govinda movies and boom apart from liking shahrukh movies and above all i like mani ratnam movies,shyam benegal movies,etc....in short i like almost everything that has ever been made on celluloid...thats why i might be a very bad critic because i simply love the medium...still let us talk about some of the movies i recently saw...
yuva-over hyped instruction to the youth of india to get up and do-it-yourself!abhishake bachchan is brilliant,ajay devgan is expectedly strong and silent while vivek oberoi is an insipid nut who doesn't have a clue as to what he is supposed to be doing...disappointing by mani ratnam standards....
hum tum- 'when harry met sally' + yash raj films = rich indians strutting around the globe falling in love slowly and steadily over a period af years!!!unthinkable by the love at first sight standards of indian cinema...but over all its a wonderful movie...saif is at his charming best in a wonderful role...rani does well too...kirron kher is gr8 as rani's loving punjabi mom...gr8 movie for all of us romantics...
shrek2-i have no words for it!!! just the cast of voice talents speaks for itself(pun intended!!!)-mike myers,eddie murphy,cameron diaz,antonio banderas,julie andrews,rupert everett...it is one of the most delightful sequels i have ever seen...eddie murphy is at his best as donkey once again...puss in boots is simply wonderful with that spanish accent...the movie reinforces the moral of its prequel...it doesn't matter what you look like...what matters is what's on the inside...
enough for now...more movies later
