Om - The Battle Within (2022)
Had tears in my eyes
When i was 6 years old, I wrote a story. I used my action figures to choreograph the fights. Phew phew dishoom dishoom..called my Veela building friends to act in the skit. The watchmen gave me 100 rupees for making props.. The garbage walam agreed to play the villain. This movie is the upscale HD version of the one I shot on tape with my second hand Sony camera.
Syucheu (2018)
Boring
Compared to the US shoes, this is boring. The casting seems to be totally wrong. The characters are all dull and doesn't have the energy or the screen presence of the US counterparts.
The Doorman (2020)
Nothing to see here
There is not a single thing in this movie worth commenting on. It is as bad as it looks in the trailer. I am absolutely stunned at how Ruby Rose lands these action roles.
Someone mentioned in the comments that this is a wannabe die hard movie but that is far far away from the truth. Its not worth comparing it and its not even near to a fake cheesy/sloppy/bad die hard copy.
*******
Nothing to spoil
Singham (2011)
Total entertainer – paisa vasool
There isn't much in the movie in terms of a story. Its your usual bad guy vs the good. You'll have a hearty laugh throughout.
All the characters seems to be hand picked for their respective role. They have all done a fantastic job. Prakash Raj is hilarious but has his hangover from Wanted. The character Gotaya will leave you in splits.
The background score is OK but adds its punch whenever required. The action is Rajnikanth style defying all logic but thats the charm of the movie.
The songs in between do break the rhythm of the movie but it ends quickly. Watch it with a group who can whistle and you will enjoy yourself thoroughly.
I liked Kajal Agarwal from her Telugu hit Maghdeera. Doesn't add much to the movie but its not irritating either.
Ghajini (2008)
Aamir, not that perfect
Logically speaking by the time a person suferring from " anterograde amnesia" with a 15 minute memory, trying to recollect things would not be able to. By the time he reads,sees photos, shouts, his 15 minute is up and he will have to start again and then again.
Aamir has worked hard on this movie, no doubt.He is one person in bollywood who takes the pain to get into the character unlike others who just changes hair colour and think they are in character.
He knew he had to come up with a brilliant marketing plan that being his sculptured body.For his next movie he is going to get rid of his 8 packs.Brilliant!!!!.
I think 80% of the budget was spent on Aamir's food and his trainer. They should have spent more on the script. Because you have lot of things to tell doesn't mean the movie should be 3+ hours long. The songs were unnecessary and did not add to the story.The script does not allow you to be on the edge of the seat.Too many things thrown in between.
You never feel any chill when the villain shows up.Not sure why there are no cops in the movie(except of the one who came under the bus), how does he go scot free when comes to the building house and kills Kalpana. No eyewitnesses? Songs not very good but the background score was excellent. Action scenes are OK. Asin did a good job, comic timing is good. Jiah was mis casted.
This movie is a one time watch only for Aamir.By the way I don't think any corporate honchos would dress like Sanjay S. The songs where Aamir is seen in many roles is just to plume himself.
Singh Is Kinng (2008)
Copied Script!!
If i was Anees bazmee, i would have chopped the entire movie and kept only Katrina's part. People would have flocked to see the 30 minute clip just to watch Katrina.
There is a limit to slap stick comedy, after that you just don't feel like laughing, its just a slap on ur face.the movie is exactly that.
Been seeing the making of the movie, looking at the foreign crew, thought at least the action would be classy. its the same old cheesy action scenes. Our crew would have done a better job.
this movie also reminded me of an old Jackie Chan movie (Mr Canton and Lady Rose)where the story is the same. Jackie gets involved in a gang and helps the flower lady. This movie was a hong kong adaptation of Frank Capra's "A Pocketful of Miracles". So apna movie script is again a copied and changed to have 2 hours of naach gaana.
Worth a one time watch: Yes, only if you like Katrina Kaif(but not because she was brilliant in the acting department). Akshay Kumar has just carried forward his Hera pheri character to this movie with the addition of a turban.
Mission Istaanbul: Darr Ke Aagey Jeet Hai! (2008)
What Crap!!
Having seen Apoorva's earlier film "Shootout..." knew there would be lot of guns.
But this movie has only guns and explosion. The entire movie is like a walk in the park for the characters.There is no story..no character building.
World's most wanted terrorists walk in and out of Al Johra building(someone forgot to mention the underground rail network to ferry them in and out) A terrorist is in Istanbul and in the next scene in Srinagar(someone forgot to tell me about the star-gate) After a heavy chase with bullets flying all over, 20 of the bad guys come with chains, sticks and whatever they can lay their hands on (someone forgot to tell me about the bad guys running out of bullets) The best they could do was some sort of a charcoal painting of the 3 guys when they are on the run. haven't you heard of colour prints.
Why doesn't any of the characters have a 3 digit IQ.(of course journalism doesn't require any. Watch aaj tak and you will know) The movies I thought of while watching this, matrix, resident evil, district 13, one of the Jackie Chan movies, Equilibrium.
I liked the soundtrack and the background score. Of course it reminded me of resident evil. The movie could have been a lot better if they had someone to rework on the script.
The movie do have one or 2 laughs. the action is nothing new. None of the songs are good.
Worth a one time watch.......NOPE....
