My Name Is Khan (2010)
Below Average Movie
I saw the screening for My Name Is Khan, and all I can say is that this movie could have better. The problem with My Name is Khan is the theme of the movie, they tried to hard to make the message come across. The direction was amazing, and cinematography was good but they could have used it for better use. One example was the walk in the park, excellent cinematography, but they used it in the wrong timing in the movie. The walk in the park should have been used in the second half because it made more sense as Rizwan Khan was about to leave. The characters were not believable, Shahrukh Khan did over the job acting. The problem with Shahrukh Khan was that he overacted in a lot of scenes, he did research but he did not recognize how it was going to be used. A huge overacting scene was when he was in bed with Kajol, and trying to close his eyes. Kajol was fantastic, I hope she gets an award, she truly outshines everyone in the movie. Karan Johar I wish you better for your next project, you tried to get message across to hard, but I'm glad you attempted at it. Overall this movie was below average movie, but it's still a one time watch for any Indian movie goers. 6/10
Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008)
It's a pretty good movie
Watched the show--- but a bit late in reviewing
First of all where do I start grinning smileygrinning smiley
Story: Film starts off with preparation of anushka's wedding. Kismat plays a role and barathi die in a car accident. Anuska father dies with this sadma & anuska too gets into a great depression. Anuska life worsen more when her dieing father pleads to SRK to wed his daughter as he is the only one he can trust!
Movie from there picks up tremendously... Scene involving SRK-Anuska after marriage ( especially when the guest come over to SRK house for celebration!) Anushka, unable to recover from the double she got earlier, pretends to be a good life...
Movie takes a turn when Anuska joins a dance show! SRK's transformation to woo Anuska and win her is also worth applauding.. Move takes a down turn when Anushka is unable to recognize SRK! I mean how can she not recognize her own husband even when he has just changed his hairstyle and dressing.... VERY DUMB and immaturish direction
Few scenes in the film are worth a mention
1) Guest coming to SRK house. Anushka's refusal to come at first, but then eventually coming 2) End scene! - Excellent 3) SRK's scenes while playing the old man! Very well portrayed by SRK! Hats Off! 4) SRK's continuous effort to woo Anuska- even when he knows he can lose her as Raj is not the real SRK!
Downside-
Anushka not able to recognize her own husband ( hairstyle and dress change only!) Anuska falling for Raj and crossing the husband-wife line Length
Music is a mix bag: Dance Pe Chance and Title track do the trick
Performance: SRK is tremoundous in scenes where he is showed as an old man! the expression and timing has to be applauded! He became a little inconsistent when played Raj's role. He was OK in few scenes- but when over the top in other
Anuska- Watch out for this actress!!! She is a talent to look forward to. Not does she only look bholi and beautiful. She knows how to act!
Rating - 3.25/5 ( for pure entertainment and romance) Watch it... you will probably come out of the cinema smiling
Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)
I have seen it, trust me this is worth your time
The return of one movie that changed the minds of the world comedic geniuses, this movie was a great sequel in all aspect, lets start with Kal Penns character, what a great way to add to career, after Namesake and White Castle, this movie easily was amongst his best performances, hes still one of the best comedic people alive, every scene with harold was hilarious, the scene during the plane and getting on was amazing, truly enjoyed the scene with them going on, and lets get to Harolds character, he felt a lot more loose for this movie, his character was more loosely based, and he had a lot of dramatic scenes in this movie then the first one that he did. He is credible in this movie more then Kumar because finding the girl from the first one, the only thing I guess I didn't enjoy was the second half of the movie, first half was very well written but the second half could've been better, and the ending was the whole best part about the movie, I was shocked to see the way the movie ended, I was happy for the way the director added that famous person from the first movie, Forgot his name but still it was a good movie, everyone who is a harold and kumar see this one, you will not be disappointed!
Jaan-E-Mann: Let's Fall in Love... Again (2006)
not worth your money
This movie sucked very bad in my opinion. I don't think anyone should see this movie at all, and Don is so much better. If there is someone to see this movie, id just advise to see it for to Preity Zinta. Salman doesn't offer anything new, and Akshay Kumar was OK. The story was pretty much like Kal Ho Naa Ho, and Dil Chahta Hai. I will have to say that Indiafm made a huge mistake about rating it so high, but its OK. so please don't see this movie at all! . Also the fact that If you watch this movie, you feel like your missing something in the movie. Jaaneeman is I guess a movie that shouldn't even be released. The ending was pretty good but to predictable movie. 2/10
Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006)
this movie is awesome, everyone should see this
this movie is great, in the cast and everything. This has to be KJs best after Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. The music is one thing to look out for, and everyone seems to have fun in the movie. The Comedy is great in this movie, espec. between srk and zinta. Whoever hates this movie, just doesn't know good cinema, this is at its best. Now to the performances, this is srks best role rite after veer zaara, srk has so much stamina, and his persona is great. Abhshek, has a smaller role, but his role is fantastic. No one could have done the role better then LIttle B, but Big B, i thought wasn't funny at all, kinda weird. NOw to the girls, Zinta had the best performance. Rani Mukherjee also had one, and it was great seeing her in the songs with mr.srk. Kajol coming in, made everyone in the cinema, happy, but it was great to see srk, and kajol finally in a movie after so long. So if u want to see a good movie, for this last movie, then its kank, and yes kank is way better then krrish.
Fanaa (2006)
wow Fanaa was a total waste of time!
OK this movie really sucked, i mean i liked aamir khan but kajol just sucked. I think they shouldve added srk to the movie with kajol it would be a little better, but o well. I watched and the first half was pointless but at least the second half was a little better with the Twists. Aamir Khan hands down is a good terrorist, but adding a blind girl? eh no!hopefully Aamir KHan will do much better at Mani Ratnam film. Does anyone know if they are still making the Mahabatra? anwayz i advise anyone do not see this bad movie, itll make u sleep, and its soo freakishly long. I couldn't stay up watching this, but I mean I think Veer Zaara is much better then this story.So If id give this a movie out of 5 id give this a 1 or a 0.5
Swades: We, the People (2004)
Recommend This!
Swades is such a good movie, as usual SRK does the best, and this movie was based in India and that is so awesome. Shah Rukh KHan can do the best and all his movies are great. This is everything u wanted comedy, romance, and action, its just a great family movie. If u wanted to see this then i recommend it to u, the songs also in here are awesome, and it keeps u thinking, what places like those are in the world. SRK as usual steals the spotlight, but it doesn't matter cuz hes way better then aamir khan and salman khan. Swades i would have to say is the best movie of 2004, and it should get a lot of awards so this movie gets a 10/10
