Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na

Cast-Imran Khan,Genelia
Watch out for-Imran Khan,Genelia,Sohail Khan,Arbaaz Khan and Naseeruddin Shah
My Rating-5/5

I know that Nobody is perfect but after watching this complete entertainer,I feel that Aamir Khan is 'Nobody'.I had a glance at the TOI critics rating which was 2.5 but I didn't read the review.This movie is a must watch.I'm sure many of you will even watch it multiple times.

The movie is a romantic comedy with equal weightage the comedy part.While watching the movie,my eyes were glued to the screen and in no time the movie ended.Sohail Khan,Arbaaz Khan and Naseeruddin Shah were extremely funny and everyone in the hall(people of all age groups/IQs) was laughing which is a rarity as far as Hindi Cinema is concerned.

The story revolves around Imran Khan(Jai Singh Rathore aka 'Rats') and Genelia(Aditi aka 'Meow').It is the story of friends turning into lovers as expected.I won't give away the story too much as it might spoil your fun.

The music of the movie is really good.The music director A.R. Rahman has done a really good job.Unlike other composers,AR Rahman's music is not copied.There aren't too many songs which is good.I basically can't think about any thing for which I can deduct 0.1 from the rating.

The movie had an airport scene which is seen in many other Bollywood movies.But unlike other movies the scene wasn't simply a hero crying and pleading the airport officials to stop the plane or a hero running on the runway.Even the airport scene had something different about it.

I'm gonna control myself now and end this review before I give away the entire movie.So go and watch the movie.

Pritam-Inspiration/Plagiarism

Bollywood music director thief Pritam is as good as an ape.All of his so called music is copied from some Korean or Chinese songs.All he has to do is listen to some Korean/Chinese/Japanese/English song and remove the lyrics from it.Even the lyrics of his songs are copied.Here are some nice videos containing some of his copy acts along with the original songs.He has even copied music from French songs.

1.This one even has songs from the movie Jab We Met for which Pritam was awarded the Producers guild award-



2.Here's another one-



3.This one even has Dhoom.He won the award for the best music director for this movie too.These songs have striking similarities.

Movie Review:Bhool Bhulaiyaa

Here's another review of a great movie-Bhool Bhulaiyaa.Bhool Bhulaiyaa is a movie by Priyadarshan which is not a comedy but is a psychological thriller.

Here are my ratings for this movie-
My Rating-3.7/5
Content Rating-U(Universal) or in other terms, G
Comments-Great fusion of comedy and thrills

The movie is a perfect fusion of a thriller and a comedy.Akshay Kumar's presence in the movie makes it obvious that the movie has to have a few really funny scenes.The movie is not too scary and I don't see any problem if kids watch this movie.

Shiney Ahuja hardly has a part to play in the movie.Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan are in lead role.Paresh Rawal and Rajpal Yadav have done justice to their roles.Amisha Patel also did a decent job in the movie.

The only flaw I see in the movie is that at times the scenes which were meant to be scary end up to be funny which is good sometimes but unsuitable other times.The music of the movie is great and the controversial song-'Hare Krishna,Hare Ram' is very popular among the youth.

The last song of the movie is worth appreciating.It is perhaps the scariest part of the movie.Vidya Balan has done an excellent job in the song.The movie was made in south Indian languages before it was made in Hindi like other Priyadarshan movies.

Here's the last song-'Aami je tomar'.I would warn you that some of you could lose your appetite or get horrifying nightmares after watching this one-



And here's the Tamil version 'Ra Raa' from the movie Chandramukhi starring the heartthrob Rajnikant-



The similarities are striking.You should watch this version from the movie- Manichitrathazhu-



If you think this was it,here's the Kannada version of the song from the movie Saundarya-



Overall,you should watch this movie if you like comedies or thrilers.

Movie Review-Dhamaal

I watched Dhamaal quite a while ago but felt lazy or perhaps exams intervened and I couldn't write a review of the movie.So,here's a delayed review of the movie Dhamaal.

My Rating-4.05/5

Good comedies are rare these days.But Dhamaal is one of the rare good comedies.The film is well made and the cast has done a great job.The quality of humor is very good and the film is a perfect entertainer.

Javed Jaffery needs a special mention for his acting skills.He has done a marvelous job in the movie.I'll give him 10/10 for his performance.His is damn funny in the movie.

The only weak point in the movie is its beginning which has too frequent songs.The rest of the movie is a class apart.I found myself laughing out loud and couldn't control my laughter in a couple of scenes.

The movie has been made for all kinds of people.This great entertainer is a must watch.You should buy a DVD if its not playing at a cinema near you.

MOVIE REVIEW:HEYY BABYY

Here's my review of Sajid Nadiadwala's latest movie Heyy Babyy.Here are my ratings-

My Rating-3.1/5
Content Rating-PG

Today,I have decided to give just one rating as there can be no two opinions regarding the movie.I was tempted to give the movie a 3.2 but i deducted 0.1 from the ratings as the movie ended with the message-"LOVE YOU SRK" which I didn't like.The movie is a comedy with a few serious patches in between.The cast is too large to mention but the lead actors are-Akshay Kumar,Ritesh Deshmukh,Fardeen Khan and Vidya Balan.

The movie has a good beginning with the title song being a nice introduction.The song has more than a dozen heroines having a role of 10 seconds each.The movie starts on a funny note and then becomes a bit serious like an ordinary movie.The serious part is punctuated by comedy which makes it entertaining.

The movie has a spoof of the movie-DDLJ i.e.-Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge.A lean and funny looking Shah Rukh Khan has a special appearence for a song in his DDLJ role.I would rate Shah Rukh's designer-0.1/5 because 0 does not look nice.He was looking like a joker in the movie.

An Inference I made from the special thanks to SRK is that the 17 heroines having a 10-20 second role were paid and SRK wasn't paid for his appearance.One of the most important aspects of watching movies in a cinema hall is that you get to see some latest trailers.This one featured the trailer of Om Shanti Om.

The trailer of Om Shanti Om was not good enough to make me curious to watch the movie but I predict a good opening for it due to the Presence of Deepika Padukone who has been one of Google's top searched people.The movie looks like an old movie.Farah Khan has always had a fascination for movies like old ones.

If you want to know whether Heyy Babyy is worth watching,I'll give you an advice-watch it at least once.The movie is a must watch for feminists who like to see men being slapped by women.

MOVIE REVIEW:CHAK DE INDIA

I've been watching a lot of movies lately.Here's my review of the latest YRF movie Chak De India.

My Rating-4.1/5

Have a look at the trailer before reading this review




What do you expect from this movie after watching this trailer?I know the answer-Not much.I didn't expect the movie to be worth a 4.1 on my blog.But trust me on this,the movie is good.

Another aspect which forced me to give this movie a rating of 4.1/5 is that the last few YRF movies have been awful.This one offers some respite.It has been seen with movies like Lagaan that the moment you introduce sports in movies the movie becomes an international match in which the audience enjoys itself cheering of India.

The storyline of the movie wasn't totally original.It reminded me of Bend it like Beckham.The story is about a retired player who retires at an unusual young age due to bad circumstances.He becomes the coach of the women's team.The girls face objection from their family.There are two forwards who play against each other striving for personal achievements.

The script is a strong one and you can relate to most of the part of it like state wise selection.There is however an exception that when Shah Rukh Khan congratulates the Pakistan team after losing the final the public reaction is extreme and he is called a traitor.This is not what happens in India.India has been shown in a bad light.After all sports is all about friendship.

There are a few technical errors in the movie.I'll share the one I noticed.In the world cup,Indian team defeats almost every team 1-0.Before the final,the two forwards have about 8 goals each.This is practically impossible and I would have rated this movie 4.2 if this error would not have been there in it.

Overall,you should go and watch the movie if you wish to and I promise you won't come home unsatisfied.Everybody has done a decent job and I expect this movie to be a big success.

BEWARE OF CASH

Here's another review of a horrible movie- Cash.Here go my ratings-

My Rating-1.6/5
Boo Rating- 4.5/5

As usual,I'll explain my ratings first.I've given a 1.6 to the movie for its decent music(not bad) and for the pinch of humor in the movie.I have given a Boo rating of 4.5 to the movie as you can fill a book of the size of Harry Potter discussing the flaws and weak points of the movie.

The movie is a total confusion with nothing right about it.Every 5 minutes,a new character is introduced and I got really confused.The acting was very ordinary.Anybody could have done this role.All,the actors had to do was to perform stunts(I wonder if they really did).

The songs were irrelevant and the movie was not interesting at all.The only way I got an idea that the movie was about to end was when I looked at my watch.You don't feel curious about the story.

I would advise you to avoid watching the movie at a night show even if your ticket is sponsored.There is no point to discuss about the cast as I feel that the cast was nothing but cars and other automobiles followed religiously by the cops.

I simply hated the movie and was feeling sleepy while watching it.I feel that Anubhav Sinha has decided to stick to films like DUS.But I feel that this movie is a big blunder. This movie is filled with confusing action sequences which I hate the most.

Another notable feature of the movie was that it was punctuated with some poor animations which were totally unnecessary for the movie.The movie was shot in South Africa and I'm sure this movie won't be able to recover its expenses.

I advise all of you to stay away from this movie at any cost.The movie is not worth spending your Cash!!

MOVIE REVIEW:PARTNER

Here I am with the review of an awesome movie-Partner.First of all my ratings-

My Rating-4.3/5

Rating if you are a psycho critic and use your brain too much-3.2/5

My ratings say all I have to say about the movie.Govinda and Salman Khan have done a good job and produced a great movie.The movie resembles The Hitch a lot.Govinda even does a stupid dance which reminded me of the hitch.The heroines- Katrina Kaif and Lara Dutta have done a good job in the movie.

The movie is simply funny all the way and there isn't a single dull moment.The extra long climax is very funny indeed.I have watched several comedies.But this one is one of its kind.The entire cinema hall was laughing out loud.Another funny feature of the movie is the use of rhyming phrases which make sure that everyone laughs.

There is something for everyone in this movie.People of all age groups will enjoy this movie equally.Overall,the movie was an amazing one.Have a look at the trailer-

MOVIE REVIEW:HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX

Here I am with another movie review for you guys.Here are some ratings-

My Rating-4.2/5

Rating if you haven't read the book-4.7/5

With Deathly Hallows relesing this Saturday,you might feel like revising the Half Blood Prince and the Order of the Phoenix.Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix(the movie) is the quickest way to revise the book.Although you won't find details which you would remember if you've read the book atleast once,the movie is a must watch.

The special effects are brilliant.Let me explain my ratings.The movie is well made and is a complete entertainer.The reason why a person who hasn't read the book would rate the movie higher is that the story has been twisted quite a bit.But I didn't feel like deducting more than 1 point.The other reason why I've rated it 4.2 is that 42/10 is 4.2.As you know the Answer to life,the universe and everything else is 42 according to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

There's no point explaining the story as I'm sure all of you would have read the book.For those of you who haven't read the book yet, you will enjoy the movie so go and watch it.

Here's a list of all the points of deviation from the book-

• First of all, in the movie when Harry picks up the prophecy, he listens to standing in the prophecy room.This is probably a move to shorten the movie.You have to do things like this if you want to make the shortest movie out of the longest book.

• There is no mention of the Quibbler,the magazine owned by Luna Lovegood's father.The magazine plays an important role in the book.

• The movie has no mention of quidditch and the ghosts are completely missing.In the movie,Neville discovers about the room of requirement on his own.Harry's broom is not confiscated and he is not banned from playing quidditch in the movie.
  

• Draco Malfoy has a 1 minute role in the movie.He was seen only as a part of the Inquisitorial squad occasionally.

• The ending of the book is tragic and the mirror that Sirius Black gives to harry aggravates the feeling of tragedy.The movie is meant for kids(who prefer happy movies) and it is a short movie so they probably dispensed with this part to account for that.

• The movie does not mention Mareietta,Cho Chang's friend who tells Umbridge about the DA.There is no explaination to the fact that why only Harry and Luna could see the Thestrals.For those of you who don't know,Thestrals can be seen only by people who have seen death.Another person who is missing from the movie is the Centaur Phirenze,the Divination teacher.

Honestly,I've read the book just once,a few days after the release of the book.I'm sure that many of you who have revised it many times would be able to point out more mistakes while enjoying the movie simultaneously.

All you guys can do is add some commments to complete this post.I feel I've mentioned all the major differences.Another one is that Harry does not take cho for a date in the movie. Scenes to enjoy-

• Fred and George's escape from Hogwarts.

• Centaurs taking Umbridge with them.

• Dumbledore's escape from Hogwarts.

• Harry's and Mr Weasley's trip to the ministry for Harry's hearing.

If you feel I've missed something,just flood my comments.

MOVIE REVIEW-JHOOM BARABAR JHOOM

First of all,some Ratings-

Statutory Warning-Watching this movie can be injurious to your health.

Rating-1.4/5

Boo rating-4/5

First of all I would like you to know that boo rating is a measure of how bad a movie is.This is the term I'm going to use for horrible movies.The reason why I watch such movies is that I go to watch movies very often with my family.Thus,sometimes the movies don't end up to be nice.I would have loved to tell you the story.But the problem is that there wasn't any story.Anyways,I'll tell you what happens in the movie.

The movie revolves around mainly three people-Abhishek Bachchan,Priety Zinta and Amitabh Bachchan who appears,singing the title track and dancing on the Railway Station with some Brits.It seemed like he was upset that Hrithik Roshan was chosen for the Sony Ericsson advertisement-'The thump is here'.What I found most irritating was that there were too many songs and the songs were too long.I found myself banging my head,waiting for a couple of songs to end.I feel that this movie was really close to becoming an opera.The explaination for my ratings is- 0.4 for music and 1 for Amitabh Bachchan who did a nice job.Since he did not deliver any dialogue,I would regard his role as an item song split over the entire movie.

It is like an extended O Henry short story.Priety Zinta and Abhishek Bachchan lie to each other about being engaged to somebody and eventually fall in love in 2 hours as a result of the fake stories.Isin't it pathetic.The movie is punctuated with Lara Dutta and Bobby Deol.Overall,the movie is a collection of irritatingly long songs with a few dialogues in between.

So,I would like to give you a friendly advice-Please Please Please DON'T watch the movie.You'll feel pathetic after watching it.I feel that watching Shivaji (the new Rajnikant film) will be a better option.
