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! :)
