Word cloud of my blog. Just took the words on the home page into consideration, I suppose. You can get it here!

And these kinda show that my blog/life is becoming: "just one good movie" ;)

Review: London Dreams and Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani

Just back from an awesome party man! This company rocks! It's almost 5 AM and I am yet to sleep... Had logged in for some work and not feeling sleepy now... So thought what better that updating the blog.

Happened to watch two movies in the mean time. London Dreams and Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani... Ya I know I am watching too many movies in theater.. But the first one was sponsored by company (This company rocks no. 2!) and the second one was a treat. :D

London dreams was hell of a boring movie. How can one cast Ajay Devgan as rockstar man! Means, come on, that too as a lead singer?! That guy can't dance/perform on stage and he is a rockstar.. wtf? He was totally boring in the role. Means he tried his best and all but he couldn't help it. Anyway, the star of the movie was Salman! Without his acting (yeah he really acted in this one) this movie would have been unbearable (even for free). I don't know where the fake accent of his went in the movie.. If he had acted like this in his previous movies, I would have been his fan or something. Asin looked good. Nothing except that for her. I completely don't understand why her parents being traditional and all is shown in the movie. I don't understand "London Dreams" as a name of rock band. Wembley thing, well just forget it. And how about Ajay "the rockstar" Devgan hitting himself with his belt just to control himself?! (or whatever he meant to do) . And he sitting on his red chair and all.. (wtf no 2). Songs were not that great either and it was supposed to a musical. The list of the flaws is endless. Anyway would rate 3/10 just for Salman! (BTW I want to watch Wanted for a long time. Will try to watch on this weekend)

Next up, Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani. The movie was a senseless comedy and if you are not going to think much during the movie you will simply like it, as I did. (Note not thinking at all during London Dreams is not expected) There was laughter through out. There was Katrina (And there was Ranbir for girls as well) The chemistry between Ranbir and his dad played by Darshan Zariwalla (source: Harsh) was just awesome and couple of sequences involving them were too hilarious. The movie gets little dragged in the second half, but that's okay. And I liked the climax fighting scene as well! Songs are awesome! All in all, I liked the movie and may be I was in better mood when I saw this... So 7/10 from me!

Next up is 2012 which I am watching on Imax screen on this Sunday! And this, for a change, is TTMM or the dutch way as Rohan says.

Also I know the blog is kinda becoming film review place. So will try to post about the other thing more often in coming days for few readers which the blog has! :)

Barbeque Nation, The Boat That Rocked, Indi Joe's and The Ugly Truth

Aah what a weekend! Two awesome lunch treats. One by me. Had gone for Barbeque Nation yesterday. Never has so much chicken before. I am not going to explain how they serve and all. For that you can head to their site. But man, the menu was too good and the taste was good too! I just had the starters. Couldn't count how many rounds I had! ;) And the desserts were good too.

So after such heavy lunch went home and saw The Boat That Rocked on laptop. The movie was a little bit on the slower side but the characters in the movie made up for that. Nice story and nice music as the movie is about a radio station which is aired from a boat. 8/10.

So woke up late again today and me along with 2 friends gave a treat for our b'day in Indi Joe's. This place was great too! Man I have eaten so much in these two days! And this place had better desserts than BN! Again had hell lot for lunch and had booked for The Ugly Truth which was a part of the party too.


The movie is a sex comedy. The first half is funny as hell. Couldn't stop laughing! Second half was more like a bollywood movie. So all in all worth a watch. On laptop even better. ;) 6/10

Aah so after such a good weekend gotta work from tomorrow again! Anyway will be at home at the other end of the week! :)

Inglorious Basterds!

After watching really boring/pathetic Wake Up Sid! on Saturday, I was really looking forward to watching a good movie in theater. And as I did not have much work in the week, decided to watch another movie within 4 days! And man, what a movie it was!

After watching really intense opening scene involving Christoph Waltz, I knew this is going to be a classic. I have not seen any of Tarantino movie before, although have heard a lot about him. And I was completely blown away by his direction!

The movie was intense through out with some dark humor in between. Christoph Waltz owns the movie through out. And others just chip in the right way! The dialogues were awesome! The way each scene was shot was just too good!

Brad Pitt was good as well, sometimes overacting. But his accent was good none the less. Mélanie Laurent was good in the role of Shosanna as well. There were so many scenes in the movie where I was on the edge of my sit! The starting scene, the scene in the bar....The scenes were long and slow but the you always know that something is going to happen now and that increased the suspense.

The climax scene in the theater was just too good! Perticulary the image of Shosanna on the smoke summed it all! Found the ending little Bollywood style but that's okay :) All in all the best movie I have seen in 2009 and a must watch! 9/10.
