2012 Second Quarter Reviews (April - June)

Much delayed and incomplete Q2 Movie Reviews are out. But anyway my real customers are the ones who don't watch hindi movies till they see my reviews. My reviews are now in direct competition with my blog so if you hate my blog 'like' my reviews to prove your point :)

1. Bittoo Boss – 4.0 Star. 

• A perfectly typical bollywood movie. Nice innocent guy, pure love. Bedard zamana needs him to be rich. Rich is corrupt… shud he shud he not… uff… good one.

 2. Mr Bhatti on chhutti – 2.0 Star. 

• If you guys love Anupam Kher’s cheap comedy watch it for it. He is a loser on vacation who gets embroiled in under world.

3. Fatso – 4.0 Star. 

• Most reliable name today in movies Rajat Kapoor. There is no movie which is not good from his stable. This is no exception. The movie starts with a bang but kind of whimpers in the end. But still a must watch just for the scenes of ‘limbo’ and each and every dialogue is a masterpiece in the scenes between 'heaven and earth'. 

4. Staying Alive – 2.0 Star. 

• Seemed like some philosophical treat with 2 people dying in a hospital but was not entertaining.

 5. Hate story – 3.5 Star. 

• Revenge drama with a twist. The difference is the person madly in revenge mode is the girl. Cool.

 6. Jodi Breakers – 2.5 Star. 

• Don’t remember much of it. They form a team to open a business to expedite divorce and predictable happens. Pretty much on the lines of Band Baja Baraat.

 7. Blood money – 3.0 Star. 

• A typical Bhatt movie with a guy getting stuck in underworld falls in love but can’t get out of bad company.

8. Agent Vinod – 3.0 Star. 

• Desi Bond does everything what a Agent is needed to do but the soul is missing. There is no point of the movie, like SRKs RaOne too much hype and trying to fit in was the drawback.

 9. Challis chaurasi – 4.0 Star. 

• Good comedy great cast. A bit corny at times, but with 4 accomplished actors including KK Menon and Naseer, the stupid scenes look good too. Great ride …. don’t over think it.

10. Gali gali chor hai – 4.5 Star. 

• Easily the best movie of this Quarter, Akshaye Khanna has been a stamp of quality for some time now. He has perfected this role of common man stuck in a corrupt system. The movie is a black comedy with shades of jaane bhi do yaaron.

11. Paan singh tomar – 4.0 Star. 

• To make a movie about a real life dacoit and then entertain is difficult. It does that. A renowned Indian athlete becomes a dacoit. Well told story.

12. London paris newyork – 2.5 Star. 

• The lead actor has heavy accent which annoys. The girl is cute. When harry met sally has now been done 100 times. Pretentions kill the movie. Maybe am being harsh but it was just a ok movie.

13. Ekk diwana tha – 3.5 Star. 

• Different treatment to the movie makes it better than it is. Arya babbar annoys with his voice and expressions which don’t change. But otherwise movie is pretty different and a onetime watch.

 14. Tere naal love ho gaya – 3.5 Star. 

• Jenelia is cute. The movie is pretty cute love story. Don’t judge it too much you will enjoy it.

15. Ek mein aur ek tu – 3 star. 

• I don’t watch movies which come to theater and Sapna goes to see them. So Sapna said she liked it. She was ok with it.

 16. Cocktail - 4.0 Star. 

• Again as above watched by Sapna in theater, not my kinda movie but Sapna liked it. Its a gen X movie which was even liked by Revati so must be good.
