Dhoom 3: Back In Action review

Aamir Khan.... the only unique part of Dhoom 3! Let's analyse in the following review. First of all, all the credit for the film should be given to Aamir Khan and his unique portrayal of the character of Sahir Khan. I personally think that Aamir Khan's character in the film was very well written. Without giving away any of the story, I will review this film....well try to. Writer turn director, Vijay Krishna Acharya, wrote the previous two...

R... Rajkumar review

"Maar Maar Maar aur Pyaar Pyaar Pyaar" (Hit Hit Hit And Love Love Love)...Literally defines the entire film! Let's add some words like "Naach Naach Naach" (Dance Dance Dance) to the mix and that completely describes R... Rajkumar.  Prabhu Deva in his usual way, does an action-comedic-romantic film that keeps us engaged through out the film. These are classed as "Masala" films, due to their tastefulness towards the Indian masses. Prabhu Deva,...

Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela review

  “Ram-leela’! The genius of Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the passion of Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, the guile of Supriya Pathak and the rawness of Richa Chadda”, in the words of the legendary, Amitabh Bachchan. Inspired by Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the director, creates an Indian adaptation which resembles Habib Faisal's Ishaqzaade in many ways. There are two rival clans, living in the same...

Krrish 3 review

KRRISH 3 the new highest grossing Bollywood film of all time...finally restoring my belief in the Indian public. Well, for now at least. The third part of this trilogy, Krrish 3 has shattered all records! After back-to-back hits in this banner "Koi Mil Gaya" and "Krrish", Krrish 3 fulfils its presumptions. First of all, I actually do not understand the point of this title, Krrish 3... it makes no sense whatsoever. "Koi Mil Gaya 3, Krrish Returns...

Runner, Runner review

A film about money, greed, poker and most of all....MORE MONEY! I must say, Justin Timberlake completely succeeds as Richie Furst, a masters student at Princeton who is in dire need of some cash. He has to be the most interesting aspect of this film, apart from the outstandingly presented story by director Brad Furman.  Ben Affleck, plays Ivan Block, a businessman who has been extremely lucky. Saying any more about his business would most...

Besharam review

Besharam is very shameless!!! Ranbir Kapoor and Pallavi Sharda acted very well but the story was horrendous.... Just very TWO DIFFERENT SIDES OF THE SPECTRUM! I realised, this film was an attempt at a "good-hearted man" being rude, obnoxious and shameless due to the fact that he did not have the facilities or the opportunities that everyone else had. On the surface, it sounds like an interesting take on the matter but the amount...

Phata Poster Nikhla Hero review

Rajkumar Santoshi (the director) has 2 distinct pieces of art that he is renowned for and to be honest, those 2 films are very similar in their outline. Btw, Andaaz Apna Apna and Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani are the 2 films I mentioned previously. Phata Poster Nikhla Hero (PPNH) is another one of his Santoshiness films but this one actually has a moral behind it which actually makes it a much more interesting film. I'm not saying this film does...

You're Next Review by Jaffrina Jahan

You’re Next centres around the Davison family reunion in a remote house to celebrate their wealthy parent’s wedding anniversary. The grown up children, Drake, Crispian, Amy and Felix are joined by their counterparts, Kelly, Erin, Tariq and Zee respectively. When they come under attack by mysterious killers in animal masks Erin takes control and fights back. The trailer suggests a perfect family, however, that is far from the truth. Rivalries,...

Madras Cafe review

Recently, John Abraham has chosen films that do appear quite strange choices...however it does show that he has quite wide range of acting ability. Films like Force, I.Me Aur Main and Shootout At Wadala....all films you would not associate with the "Chocolate-boy" reputation he has in the film industry. Madras Cafe is another one of these amazing roles that Abraham has been lucky to have. John Abraham (Major Vikram Singh) nailed his role, though...

Star Trek Into Darkness

Long overdue but here goes.... Star Trek franchise was relaunched in 2009 with the original characters from the Original series, but with fresh new faces. The film received very good reviews and the verdict was positive...so obviously, there had to be a secod film. Star Trek Into Darkness was an impressive sequel with a great story which was held together by the friendship of James.T.Kirk and Spock shown by director J.J.Abrams. Chris Pine as...

The Conjuring review by Jaffrina Jahan

Like James Wan’s previous horror outing, Insidious, The Conjuring is typical in following the haunting of a family who move into a new home. It is filled with cliché horror devices ranging from the jack-in-the-box to the imaginary friend and it is clear that Wan has been inspired from other horror films such as the Exorcist and The Poltergeist.  Ed and Lorraine Warren are the real life paranormal investigators who are called by the...

Pain and Gain review

Obviously Pain and Gain had amazing box office collections in USA! Unfortunately, it didn't do as well around the globe but that does not matter one bit. This film is a true story (as specified many times during the movie) and is very well directed, shown quite well on the silver screen by director Michael Bay. I'll keep this review short and straight to the point. "Pain and Gain, which Bay and Bay alone was capable of directing, seizes on this...

Once Upon Ay Time In Mumbaai Dobara

The length of the title is a start to a film that will feel as though it is dragged on for longer than it needed to. OUATIMD (Once Upon Ay Time In Mumbaai Dobara) is one of the few films that I wanted to watch at the start of the year, but unfortunately, the film seems to be too long for what it is. This film is a love story...with action added into it, that actually looks very good. Director Milan Luthria has made some absolutely amazing pieces...

Chennai Express review

Back in 2006, when Golmaal:Fun Unlimited released (director Rohit Shetty), I found that film hilarious and thought that Shetty would become an amazing director with a unique talent for entertaining the audience. BUT!!!!!! ROHIT SHETTY I am sorry to say...Chennai express was a disaster!! I can't believe I am quoting the film but this really was a "Bokwoas" film. Direction was so unfresh, predictable and extremely monotonous. This all has been done...
