Love Aaj Kaal

Here comes the movie from a brand new production house. Finally Saif joins the other Khan's in becoming a producer. He has really put in a lot of effort with this Movie which is very evident on screen. Love Aaj Kaal is a love story that is based on comparisons drawn between the lovers of yester years with the new generation. The theme of the movie is that you fall in love only once and hence you need to put your heart and soul to make that relationship happen. Saif plays a brat who meets Deepika in london and fall for each other within the first 2 mins of the start of the movie. The editing pattern is too intelligent for the audiences confusing them between the past and the present. The chemistry between Deepika and Saif looks very refreshing and believe me the age difference which is about 22 years is just not visible. They both have really complemented each other to a great extent. As the story progresses they both mutually split to achieve their goals in life. This is where Rishi Kapoor steps in Saif's life and explains him the importance of Love in his life. He narrates his own experience to make him realize that Deepika is the best suited gal for him and he must get her back in life. Now here's the goof up which the movie suffers, instead of taking an another actor to play the young Rishi kapoor , the director Imtiaz has instead made Saif Ali play the character of Young Rishi Kapoor. Good God!!!.
Saif here is shown as a Sardar from Delhi who falls for a gal that is getting married to someone else. He sets the example for the other Saif by ensuring that he does not give up on her and finally gets married with the same Gal. But the new Saif lets deepika get married to Rahul Khanna and finally realizes after one year of their marriage that he should have not let her go with him. Boy now that's a brain dead concept.
All in all Saif has actually given a very decent performance and Deepika looks very average in this movie. Rishi Kapoor had very little scope to showcase his talent but we find Neetu Singh at the end of the movie serving tea to him.
Well i would not recommend this one to anybody
My rating : One and a half star.

Sankat City

I know the title of this movie can make you think that this is a New shopping Mall launched in the city. But thats not the case. This is a story where the money exchanges so many hands and finally rests with someone who anticipates it the least.
Anupam kher plays a DON money lender who has too many creditors in his list who play the central characters of the script. Yashpal Sharma and Manoj Pahawa sail in the same boat where they both owe money to the big Goon. They decide to sell and buy a plot of land for Rs 2 crores which would help them out of their troubles. KK Menon plays a conman who does small time choris to fill his and his pet fishes stomachs. Rimi Sen looks Hot in this movie and has actually managed to act well compared to her previous movies. I attribute this to her bengali dialogs for the same. She helps KK in getting the money to payoff Anumpam Kher. Kher has not managed to convince as a Bad guy infact her almost looks too cute for this character.
Over all the story is interesting but in the later part of the second half the boredom sinks in. Especially the scene where KK and Rimi are trying to find 2 crores in a garbage dump.
Worth a watch however.

Kambakht Ishq:

Eheeew......Akshay Kumar Please do me a favour. The Time has come for you to realize that if you appreciate Aamir Khan for his choice of Movies and his judgement on scripts then please emulate at least 10% of the act.
I saw Welcome....some how Tolerated Singh is Kinng, almost threw my shoe on Chandi chok to China and now Kambakht Ishq.
AK plays a Woman Hater while Bebo plays a male hater. It is amusing to see the two clash.
Akshay’s character Viraj does reveal later that his bark is worse than his bite and this could be one reason why Bebo changes her mind about him. Viraj however is shown true to his character and falls for Bebo only when he sees her soft side.Javed Jaffrey is good. He plays a small comic role as a bystander who cons people into thinking that they have done him harm just so that he can sue them. I found his expressions very funny, even though his role is an absurd one. Akshay Kumar looks tired in many of the shots but Kareena looks fresh. They sizzle on screen, although their so-called romantic scenes seemed absurd and artificial. Sylvester Stallone, Denise Richards and Brandon Routh were there for nothing. A total waste. Amrita Arora looks attractive. Aftab Shivdasani gives an average performance.This film is not to be taken seriously, and perhaps that is why I didn’t hate it. I actually smiled in some parts, despite myself.

Terminator Salvation:

This movie has made me realize what can lack of star power do to a movie. Most importantly i never thought that there would be any other sequel made post the Rise of Machines coz there was a Global level destruction indicated with Machines going for the Nuke war. But hey there were many survivors who still made it till Salvation. The head quarter of the human beings fighting for their survivors is deep down the sea in a Submarine. They plan a mass destruction of the machines by formulating a Code which disables their ability to work. The head of the troup is John Connor who is now shown as a really tough guy who values his existance in the black world. Then there is a character who is half human and half machine (reveled only after second half) who extends his help to the Human beings. Its simply boring to know that this plot was almost lacking any sort of exciting action sequences and made me Yawn most of the Time.
Really a waste of Time.
My Rating : Half Star.

Ice Age 3:

I loved part 1 but part 2 was not as i had expected. And here comes part three which is actually nice.
I watched the 3D version of this movie and would recommend that u do the same. The Dawn of the dinos as the name suggests has the Giant introduced. The Elephant couple is expecting their baby in this movie. The Lion seems to be a bit dejected with his hunting skills and hence quits the gang. Sam on the other hand feels that he too needs to move on in life and finds three Dino eggs to parent. Later the eggs hatch and the mother Dino snatches the Eggs and Sam to her Jungle. This leads the heard to find Sam and they enter the Jurassic Park which is an unknown land below the Ice. The writers of the movie have given a lot of time in making sure that ur smile and laughter is maintained thru out the movie. Also there are so many cute moments like the birth of the young baby Elephant makes the screen light up.
This one is a great movie and a must must watch
My rating : 4 stars

New York

Kudos Kabir Khan . This one was surely expected after the caliber was judged in Kabul Express. He has ensured that the message which is very non commercial in nature actually gets delivered with a touch of Bollywoodish malasa.
Its a gripping thriller which gets to the point right away. The American Mentality post 9/11 has been demonstrated where there have been so many suspects who have been detained without lack of concrete evidence. John has delivered his career best performance. Katrina looks hot and the twang suits her character in the movie. However NEil has not lived up to his expectation. The movie failed to get a good start but post where Irrfan Khan integrogates the suspect and makes the scene look a big boring. But the second half of the movie is SUPERB as is the Climax.......Its a Must watch
My Rating : 3 and 1/2 stars
