Dangerous Ishq - Review

wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do ^(?)

quick review: Dangerous Ishhq reminded me of a Jitendra film from the 70s-80s (have been wrecking my brain to remember the title of the film, but it just won't come, maybe there were more than one.) in which there were all kinds of curses and counter-curses. But at the very least it had a mythological background. Dangerous Ishhq exasperates you with the witchery while trying to keep the setting modern. Just doesn't gel. Read more...

Dark Shadows - Review

A wogma guest review by Swetha Ramakrishnan

wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD ^(?)

quick review: Okay I’ll admit Dark Shadows is better than the soapy Twilight series – both Johnny Depp and Eva Green give you enough to laugh once in a while. But if you’ve been following the Burton-Depp franchise since Edward Scissorhands in 1990, you will find yourself disappointed with this complacent effort of a film. Read more...

Ajintha - Review

A wogma guest review by Pradeep Menon

wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD ^(?)

quick review: Inspite of some technical merit, Nitin Desai’s directorial debut, Ajintha, offers very little to the viewer as a film, due to some weak writing and direction. The only possible reason to watch it could be its sporadically grand production design, which itself is honestly not a strong enough reason. Avoiding Ajintha will be no loss at all. Read more...

Hugo - Review

A wogma guest review by Pradeep Menon

wogma rating: Must see - on the big screen ^(?) - Anywhere else will just be gross injustice, not to mention the experience that you’ll miss.

quick review: It had to be a film that is as diametrically opposite to, say, Taxi Driver or Goodfellas, to show the world just what cinema means to Martin Scorsese. This love letter to the movies from one of the legends of our time is nothing short of a wondrous watch on the big screen. If the recreation of some of the most iconic moments in the history of cinema is not good enough for you, then the visually thrilling 3D experience definitely will be. Only one thing needs to be said – Please watch Hugo on the big screen. Read more...

Jannat 2 - Review

wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do ^(?)

quick review: While Jannat 2's lead character, Sony Dilli has a decent conflict, the film isn't worth watching because of the dull manner it is narrated in. In many ways, Jannat 2 feels like a film that could've been a film worth watching once if it had a little better of everything, especially better actors to play the side characters and the villain.

Kaksparsh - Review

A wogma guest review by Pradeep Menon

wogma rating: Watch for sure, preferably in theatre ^(?) - If not, then definitely watch it when it comes on TV/DVD.

quick review: A lot of people may not find Kaksparsh the easiest film to watch, but Mahesh Manjrekar deserves a pat on his back just for the story that he has chosen to tell. A tale of love that transcends what is considered acceptable by society even today, this period piece is a credible film and a feather in Mahesh Manjrekar’s cap. Read more...

The Avengers - Review

A wogma guest review by Swetha Ramakrishnan

wogma rating: Watch for sure, preferably in theatre ^(?)

quick review: The Avengers manages to capture the attention of the avid-fans as well as the newcomers. I could overhear Marvel comic fans discussing the move rigorously during the interval, and surprisingly, I also overheard a bunch of new-comers talk about how they’re going to buy the comics and read up on the film. We all collectively, however, walked out of the theatre starving for more. Don’t miss The Avengers! Read more...

Tezz - Review

wogma rating: Switch channels if it's on cable ^(?)

quick review: A must miss. Sloppy visual effects, lamest lines of all, a bizarre plot which wishes that I empathize with an anti-hero who threatens to blast trains don't make a couple of good chase sequences worth it. And you meet some of the most unplanned terrorists on the way. Read more...

Masala - Review

A wogma guest review by Pradeep Menon

wogma rating: Watch for sure, preferably in theatre ^(?)

quick review: With Masala, Girish Kulkarni’s conquests as a writer and actor continue. Fresh on the heels of his National Award for Deool, comes a charming little film about two protagonists whom you start feeling for within minutes. The rest of the film’s experience is about some excellent performances and the smile that you’ll have on your face throughout. Masala should be watched. Read more...

Vicky Donor - Review

wogma rating: Watch for sure, preferably in theatre ^(?) - And if by any chance you miss it in the theaters do make sure to catch it on DVD.

quick review: Vicky Donor has a story which weaves in and out of a subject that is taboo, that too in an enjoyable and entertaining manner. Quick, witty lines are delivered with comfort and awesome performances. Even if you don't end up watching it on screen, do make sure you catch it on TV/DVD. Read more...

Hate Story - Review

wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do ^(?)

quick review: The story - beyond the lead lady turning into a prostitute - might still have worked, I can imaginably have given that much to the writers. But, the film that it has turned into is certainly well worth hating. From acting to music to pretty much everything else, Hate Story pushes your patience to the brink. Read more...

Titanic 3D - Review

A wogma guest review by Swetha Ramakrishnan

wogma rating: Buy the DVD already ^(?)

quick review: Titanic is an epic film – much like ET and Casablanca for their respective generations. So many people have told me how it’s one of the first English films they’ve watched in a movie theatre – also one of the only English films that they would gladly sit through (all 3 and half hours of it). I realized Titanic’s popularity when my domestic help mentioned she’d seen the film in Hindi on cable TV on a Saturday night and loved it. It’s a film we’ve all loved at some point in our lives – Titanic is a beautiful celebration of nostalgia. Read more...

Housefull 2 - Review

wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do ^(?)

quick review: Housefull 2 is nothing more and nothing less that what you'd expect from it. you know the director and his genre, so you know how you'll like the film. I was a tiny bit surprised with the momentum maintained in the chaos. But an 'aah...interesting' kind of a surprise doesn't necessarily make it a fun experience. Read more...

Wrath of the Titans - Review

A wogma guest review by Swetha Ramakrishnan

wogma rating: Switch channels if it's on cable ^(?)

quick review: If 3D effects and visuals graphics are the only reason you want to go watch Wrath of the Titans, please save yourself the time and watch Lord of the Rings instead. If it’s the Greek mythology that intrigues you, however, I strongly suggest you rent Troy or even Disney’s Hercules. Basically, give this film a miss. Read more...

Kahaani - Review

wogma rating: Buy the DVD already ^(?)

quick review: An extremely quirky atmosphere is created by the camera, the narrative, the sound, the music and Vidya Balan. An experience that might seem incomplete if not watched on the big screen. Read more...

Ekk Deewana Tha - Review

Agneepath - Review

wogma rating: Add to 'must watch' list ^(?)

quick review: And this is how you make a remake! Weed out the unnecessary elements, fill in the blanks, and be ready for the brickbats from those for whom the original is now "cult". For those like me, who are not a part of that sect, it was a pleasure to see the 90s style of narration blend beautifully with contemporary aesthetics and sensibilities to form a pakka entertainer. So, steer clear if you don't like that kind of masala in your films. But, make sure you go for it, if intense drama mixed with song and dance entertains you. And while at it do lend a special applause to makers for resisting the urge to use exotic locales and most importantly, slapstick/lame comedy! Read more...

Don 2 - Review

wogma rating: The keen should rent; else TV ^(?)

quick review: Smart lines and slick camerawork turns into tiring witticism and regular big-budget technicalities because it is over-written and over-stylized. The few extra seconds taken to establish a scene with elegance give the crux of the scene away. This keeps this action-thriller from being crisp. Multiple, smart twists are pointless if you are going to chicken out in the climax. Read more...

Tees Maar Khan - Review

wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do ^(?)

quick review: Tees Maar Khan makes me admire Farah Khan (Director) and Shirish Kunder (writer) for how they choose not to take anything seriously, themselves first. But, they are sniggering amongst themselves. It's one thing to laugh at anything and everything from - the umbilical cord to patriotism - and it's a whole other thing NOT TO make us laugh with them. So obnoxious is the film along with its stars Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif that the subtle points that Tees Maar Khan seems to make, come across as completely accidental. Read more...

Guzaarish - Review

wogma rating: Add to 'must watch' list ^(?)

quick review: Guzaarish is an art museum. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is the perfectly chiseled curator and Hrithik Roshan an almost statue. And this once, it’s not his acting I’m complaining about, the script demands him to stay put. You are watching them etched in many exotic, exquisite paintings frame after frame. So, what if the very basis of the story is pointless and there are gaping holes which are difficult to digest. Read more...

Review - Golmaal 3: Unmitigated jest and frolic

A wogma guest review by Poonam Sharma

wogma rating: Add to 'must watch' list ^(?)

quick review: Any decent movie must either tell a good story or provide good experience. Though there is not much to call a story in Golmaal 3, it does provide a good experience nevertheless. Also, it is a mad caper spoof of several Bollywood movies – both retro and current. Read more...

Jhootha hi sahi - Review

wogma rating: Watch when on TV ^(?)

quick review: Gen X - it takes everything in stride - pre-marital pregnancies, sexual orientation, double-timing - everything is cool. A group of friends excels in the leg-pulling game and has fun like you and I do. If only, they didn’t end up in a tiring climax that doesn't have a superlative or expletive to describe it. Quick quips are shot down by aimless sub-plots, songs and did I mention, awful climax. Read more...

Review - Dabangg: fearless mix of masalas

wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do ^(?)

quick review: Dabangg, and more so, Salman Khan, won't even allow a reviewer her right to roll her eyes. How can she be the snoot who ignores a packed house is dancing and clapping its way to the background score of an action sequence? She laughs at the silliness on screen and off. She walks out of the theater feeling happy for the people who had come to enjoy and made sure they had a good time. But enjoy, for her own self, did she? Nope. Not a chance. Read more...

wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do ^(?)

quick review: Is some good performances and a lot of technical finesse enough to make a good movie? I don't think it is - for a movie that falls into the 'reality' genre. The content needs a lot more depth than this one had. Also, I just didn't understand the purpose of the movie. Was it to tell people how bombs are made or to tell terrorists not to terrorise? I think such movies receive more attention than they deserve due to the controversy they create. Read more...

Thumbs down by Bobby Sing, Bobby Talks Cinema.com ...The poorly written screenplay taking the viewer into different eras of the past, fails to impress completely and the film simply appears to be a B class project in all its departments ranging from writing, acting, direction and presentation.... full review

Thumbs down by Taran Adarsh, Bollywood Hungama ...This fantasy-driven film is an epic disappointment! ... full review

Thumbs down BookmyShow ...If you want an excuse to bunk work, watch this film. Come back with a migraine and call the day off to heal.... full review

Thumbs up Buzz in Town ...this is a film that takes us far beyond the accepted boundaries of entertainment to forge a new genre of cinematic experience.... full review

So-So Daily Bhaskar ...A flawless act by Karisma Kapoor, a crisp direction, intelligent editing and cinematography are the strengths. Some loopholes in the storyline, impactless dialogues, especially in the first half and the music are the weak points.... full review

Thumbs down Desi Martini ...Even with an intriguing premise, Dangerous Ishhq fails to excite the audiences owing to some trashy performances and the mislaid chemistry between the leads.... full review

Thumbs down by Kshitij, Desi Martini ...DI is a colossal failure and sadly it does no justice to Karisma Kapoor.... full review

Thumbs down by Blessy Chettiar, DNA ...What director Vikram Bhatt brings to the table is an unintentionally funny, extremely bland bhel puri of elaborate sets, gaudy makeup and the most regressive dialogue you will have heard in a long time.... full review

Thumbs down by Nupur Barua, fullhyd.com ...The locations and costumes make up a little for the tedious script, but it all seems unreal, somewhat. The 3D is a little skewed... full review

Thumbs down by Martin D'Souza, Glamsham.com ...The movie begins with a whimper, gets into thriller zone after 20 minutes and then meanders along with one past life after another which makes it more a costume drama than a thriller.... full review

So-So by Divya Solgama, Gomolo.in ...thanks to good drama, few 3D effects {for mass level} and gripping second half the movie though not dangerous but is bit interesting.... full review

Thumbs down by Anupama Chopra, Hindustan Times ...Dangerous Ishhq is essentially cheesy B-grade material treated with deathly seriousness but becomes unintentionally funny.... full review

Thumbs down by Rajeev Masand, IBN Live ...If anything, the film is unintentionally comical, thanks in no small part to its clunky dialogue, bizarre characters, and ham-fisted direction.... full review

Thumbs down by Shubhra Gupta, indian express ...This is a terrible film, with not one redeeming factor.... full review

Thumbs down by Mrigank Dhaniwala , koimoi ...ineffective screenplay which tests the audience’s patience; the contrived and unbelievable drama; the useless 3D version.... full review

Thumbs down Movie Talkies ...the film seems like a never-ending roller coaster ride through so many past lives that we don't blame you if you feel your head spinning while trying to keep track.... full review

Thumbs down by Saibal Chatterjee, NDTV ...The plot is a problem. It is all over the place... full review

Thumbs down by Mansha Rastogi, Now Running.com ...Dangerous Ishhq is definitely very dangerous... to your sensibilities! Beware! ... full review

Thumbs down by Jaykumar Shah, Planet Bollywood ...The biggest deal breaker for this movie is in the writing department. Story (Amin Hajee) is not paced well. Characters are completely underdeveloped... full review

Thumbs down by Puja Banta, Rediff ...Dangerous Ishhq is a reminder of an era in Bollywood when filmmakers could grossly underestimate their audiences' thinking capacity and get away with it... full review

Thumbs down by Shilpa Jamkhandikar, Reuters ...the film has so many plot holes the entire effort falls flat. Characters routinely mouth dialogue that is unintentionally hilarious.... full review

Thumbs down Roochster ...An idea of 90s, with an actress of 90s clearly doesn't work in 2012.... full review

So-So by Sonia Chopra, Sify Movies ...Don’t expect depth and you won’t be disappointed. Worth a watch for Karisma’s earnest performance and the unique story. ... full review

So-So by K N Gupta, SmasHits.com ...Vikram Bhatt has succeeded in the most difficult job of connecting the past and the present.... full review

Thumbs down by Swati Rohatgi, STARDUST ...Cinematography is far too confusing for even deserving a remark as the 3D used in the film is of such bad quality that 50 per cent of the film is blurry... full review

Thumbs down by Sudhish Kamath, The Hindu ...This eyesore has neither sex nor horror to compensate for its cheesy, B-movie premise.... full review

Thumbs down by Madhureeta Mukherjee, Times of India ...With a weak script, under-sketched characters, and past life incidents presented as casually as a dream sequence, Bhatt does little to breathe life in this passionless love story.... full review

Thumbs down by Rahul Desai, Upper Stall ...Dangerous Ishq cannot be classified as a period film, or a horror film, or a film based on paranormal activity, or even a thriller.... full review

Dangerous Ishq - Review

wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do ^(?)

Review

Love can be fatal and thus ishhq, dangerous. So dangerous that it cannot be found nor avenged over 500 years and five reincarnations. As ridiculous as it sounds, I do think there could have been a poetic charm about love over many lives, but the way Dangerous Ishhq is done, it comes across more as a field day for the costume and jewelry designers of the film. The setting with common people having super-human powers in real life didn't quite get with the current day story.

Yes, we accept it in our Harry Potters and we accepted weapons that spit light and made sounds in our Ramayans and Mahabharats because the entire setting is such, that of fantasy. Here, we are given the mandatory alternate medicine therapist, a doctor who begins to believe and a cop who doesn't trust - as is seen in most Bhatt films that touch upon the supernatural theme - which just doesn't work. You cannot ask me to 'just believe', you have to make me believe - which just about never happens in reincarnation films - be it one reincarnation or five.

Add to that a 'comeback' by an actor from the 90s. The consolation is Karishma Kapoor makes nostalgic by being her same old shrill self who alternates her shrieks with playing a painted, plastic doll. The rest of the cast don't do much to engage you either.

That would have been a complaint worth elaborating on had there been a plot that involved you with the character's stories. All you can do is laugh at every time Sanjana (Karisma Kapoor) hallucinated about one of her past lives.

Ultimately, it ends up being a show case for Karishma Kapoor in different types of costumes and jewelry. Other than that, I didn't see any other reason for making a film based on this theme.

Warning: clicking on "full review" will take you to an external website that could contain spoilers.

wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD ^(?) - That too only for the actors and treatment, don't expect anything from the story

quick review: A love story we've gotten too used to over the decades to be interesting despite fresh performances and a slick, rustic treatment.

So-So by Anna M.M.Vetticad , annavetticadgoes2themovies ...the film’s fun and seemingly feminist first half is marred by its anti-women second half.... full review

Thumbs up by Naresh Kumar Deoshi, Apun Ka Choice ...If anything, you must watch Ishaqzaade for its young guns: Parineeti Chopra and Arjun Kapoor.... full review

So-So by Bobby Sing, Bobby Talks Cinema.com ...In all ISHAQZAADEY becomes watchable mainly because of Parineeti and some good music alone.... full review

Thumbs up by Taran Adarsh, Bollywood Hungama ...This broadly engaging love story has a winsome pair who deliver dexterous performances, besides popular music and several poignant moments, which should appeal to fans of mainstream films. Go for it! ... full review

So-So by Charu A Mahesh, Buzz in Town ...It might not be a zalzala of a film but offers quite some fireworks of entertainment.... full review

Thumbs up Daily Bhaskar ...Brilliant performance by the lead cast... full review

So-So Desi Martini ...The film kicks off well and easily manages to entertain the audiences till the interval. The second half is predictable but Parineeti Chopra and her mind-boggling performance save the film. A decent watch!... full review

So-So by Rony Dcosta, Desi Martini ...Ishaqzaade is predictable yet engaging to an extent. Parineeti Chopra makes up for all the flaws to assure a good one time watch.... full review

So-So by Kshitij, Desi Martini ...Ishaqzaade is an average fare.... full review

So-So by Ameetbhuvan, Desi Martini ...The freshness of the lead pair, the fresh music and some crisp editing make for a decently entertaining two and half hours.... full review

Thumbs up by Smita, Desi Martini ...It has the kind of passion and energy that leaves you feeling a bit weak in the knees.... full review

Thumbs down by Blessy Chettiar, DNA ...The love story drags on till a point you stop caring. After the very slow start, things start picking up towards the interval. The second half is repulsive, length wise.... full review

Thumbs down by Deepa Deosthalee, Film Impressions ...He has a knack for creating atmosphere through authentic backdrop and dialogue. But by trodding the beaten track, he shows himself lacking in imagination and foresight.... full review

Thumbs up by Rachit Gupta, Filmfare ...A fantastic Indian adaptation of Romeo And Juliet... full review

Thumbs down Free Press Journal ...There is entertainment to be had in the many moments of manufactured antagonism between the lead families but it doesn't sustain.... full review

Thumbs up by Divya Solgama, Gomolo.in ...The movie breaks the mould of conventional love stories at many points with its abrupt twist and turns, though some might seem unconvincing, but as the movie progress they stop bothering you and go with the flow.... full review

Thumbs up by Fatema H.Kagalwala, India Entertainment ...The film has so many little things to offer, ambiance, body language, language, cultural nuances and more. Amit Trivedi’s score has the small-town, slightly brazen energy and so does the action.... full review

So-So by Shubhra Gupta, indian express ...Overall, it feels stale, this business of using religious differences to divide true love in just this way.... full review

Thumbs down by Shubhra Gupta, indian express ...It’s all in there, and yet the result is mixed : some of ‘Ishqzaade’ hits the spot, the rest is a drag.... full review

Thumbs up by Mrigank Dhaniwala, koimoi ...On the whole, Ishaqzaade is an entertaining fare which works on the strength of its first half and the performances.... full review

Thumbs up by Udita Jhunjhunwala, Live Mint ...The director captures small-town India perfectly and builds up his characters with requisite vigour. In spite of the choppy second hour, Ishaqzaade is still worth a watch.... full review

So-So by Shaheen Parkar, MiD DAY ...If only the second half had not meandered into a redlight area, this film would have been a great watch, but still it is worth a viewing.... full review

Thumbs up Movie Talkies ...Their palpable, volatile chemistry, shooting at each other one second, passionately kissing the next, is already half a reason to go watch the film, while the obvious talent they have in common makes for the other half.... full review

Thumbs down by on on on on on on on on on on Saibal Chatterjee, NDTV ...Sadly, Ishaqzaade isn't quite as pulsating as the plot line might suggest.... full review

Thumbs down by Mansha Rastogi, Now Running.com ...Maybe, it's the built-up of lack of focus on the emotional quotient; you don't feel for the yearning of the lead characters one bit neither relates to their issues.... full review

Thumbs down by Raja Sen, Rediff ...There is much craft on display, and some lovely moments, but the immense promise shown by the first half turns out as hollow as a politician's.... full review

So-So by Shilpa Jamkhandika, Reuters ...“Ishaqzaade” isn’t as good a film as it could have been, but there are still enough reasons to watch it.... full review

Thumbs up Roochster ...I really liked it and totally recommend it.... full review

Thumbs up by Sonia Chopra, Sify Movies ...Watch Ishaqzaade for Parineeti Chopra's spectacularly stellar performance. Watch it for Arjun Kapoor, an unquestionable star-in-the-making.... full review

Thumbs up by K N Gupta, SmasHits.com ...A must watch and not worth missing!! ... full review

Thumbs down by Swati Rohatgi, STARDUST ...This saga of star-crossed lovers doesn’t quite win your heart. Could’ve worked best if for better writing.... full review

Thumbs down by Sudhish Kamath, The Hindu ...Writer-Director Habib Faisal succeeds to a great extent in crafting an unpredictable first half full of spunk and spirit, but plays it boringly safe in the second, offering no new solutions or fresh perspectives in a story that has been done to death.... full review

So-So by Karishma Upadhyay, The Telegraph ...Ishaqzaade isn’t as good a film as it could have been but it is worth a watch.... full review

So-So by on on on on on on on on Madhureeta Mukherjee, Times of India ...Ishaqzaade starts with a bang-bang, but ends up firing blanks. ... full review

Thumbs down by Karan Bali, Upper Stall ...the script, barring some clever dialogue writing, is a big let down. None of the plot points and characters' change overs.... full review

Thumbs up by Shomini Sen, ZEENEWS.COM ...The film keeps you engaged in the first half and the important twist right before the break is truly mind blowing. The second half unfortunately loses pace and the predictability creeps in by the end of it.... full review

Dark Shadows - Review

Swetha Ramakrishnan — Mon, 14 May 2012 19:54:35 +0530

wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD ^(?)

Review

Another Tim Burton film starring Johnny Depp – totally did not see that coming! After 7 films together, their films now, are more a celebration of their eccentric partnership than anything else. Dark Shadows is a primary example of this fact. Obviously, Depp plays his part with absolute charm, (he’s like the male Meryl Streep, incapable of doing anything bad, but I digress.) Dark Shadows however, is like a well-dressed girl who has nowhere to go. It’s a grand production, with an elaborate set design and costumes, but lacks substance.

Based on the popular American soap opera from the early 70s, Dark Shadows surrounds vampire Barnabass Collins (Depp) who is resurrected from his coffin at 1972 after 200 years. He finds that the glorious empire is ruined, and his fisheries business is falling. To top it all, the ruthless witch who turned him into a vampire, Angelique (Eva Green) is now ruling their coastal town. The film tracks how he saves his hometown, by teaming up with the Collins’ family matriarch (Michelle Pfieffer).

The basic premise of the film has scope – here is a vampire from 200 years ago who still believes the world starts and ends with him. He’s dated, and the humor stems from that fact that he doesn’t fit. Dark Shadows does have its moments, mainly because we all know Johnny Depp has his way with wit. You will find yourself laughing, but it’s also a token humor that you know is forceful. You realize that you keep expecting the film to get funnier – but it doesn’t.

The performances do manage to give you 140 minutes of entertainment, if you ignore the follies. Eva Green as the drop-dead gorgeous Angelique is the show stopper of the film. She’s sharp, funny (yes the funniest part of the film for sure) and stunning. Like most Tim Burton films, the setting and mood is applaud-able. Sets, costumes and dialogues all transport you to an eccentric alternate world that governs most Burton films. You also find that the soundtrack is dominating by rock classics of the 70s.

Ofcourse, the central factor here is that Dark Shadows is all about Johnny Depp – his extravagant hairdos and frills, his experiments and his charm parade where he tries to knock you off with his humor. Usually, it’s the arrogance that works, but in this case it does seem laborious because it doesn’t have a story to fall back on.

If you’re a fan of the Burton-Depp franchise, you might either be extremely disappointed having expected to be blown away or you might just settle for a complacent effort on their part. Dark Shadows could have been a humorous, engaging film as it’s made with all the right decisions in casting and setting. As it is though, the film falls short of its expectations – like a half-baked attempt that you might enjoy only if you worship Johnny Depp.

Ajintha - Review

Pradeep Menon — Mon, 14 May 2012 19:19:03 +0530

wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD ^(?)

Review

Nitin Desai seems to enjoy being the proverbial fish out of the water. Following his acting debut last year, the celebrated art director’s debut feature at the helm, Ajintha, hit theatres this week. Ambitious in scale and vision, Ajintha has technique going for it, but falls way short of being even a halfway decent watch, primarily because of its writing and direction.

The film opens in the jungles of Ajintha, where a Captain James Smith of the British Army, accompanied with a team of tribals, makes an important discovery – caves over two millennia old, containing carvings and paintings depicting the various incarnations of Lord Buddha. Keen on promoting this discovery, the British decide to send a soldier, who also happens to have some skill with the paintbrush, to recreate the paintings and sculptures, so that they can be exhibited and the caves popularized.

Thus, Captain Robert Gill arrives with his easel and canvas to the caves of Ajintha, to create his own version of the masterpieces. With the beauty of his new environment comes Paro, a tribal girl with a sad past, capturing his imagination with her innocence, becoming his muse and the source of his creativity.

There is no denying that the premise of the film had a lot of scope. Unfortunately, an unforgivably incoherent screenplay combined with a rather weak directorial hand causes the result to be clumsy, pointless and boring. The dialogue of the film is especially clunky, with a lot of them unintentionally causing a large section of the audience to guffaw uncontrollably. In fact, there was one large stretch in the middle where the audience made me feel like I was watching Vicky Donor again, even though there was nothing remotely funny going on, on screen.

Nitin Desai’s wish to make this film indulgent and ‘arty’, if there is such a thing, clearly shows - long circular trolley shots around characters to bring forth their mental turmoil; thin lines between dreams and reality where large sets seem to exist one moment and disappear the next; attempts to bathe characters in shafts of light; the works. Ajintha is virtually a case study of the fact that even decades of being a celebrated technician and being associated with some of the best films and filmmakers in the country doesn’t necessarily give you the ability to direct your own film.

If there is someone who brings forth a shred of credibility in the film, it is the young British actor Philip Scott Wallace, who plays Robert Gill. In spite of being saddled with some ungainly English dialogue, he seems to have invested himself into his character of a soldier with artistic leanings, who falls in love with an Indian tribal girl. Sonalee Kulkarni, the actress who plays Paro, is a different matter altogether. Not particularly good with her acting, she doesn’t even come close to looking like what one would imagine a rustic, wild tribal beauty to look like.

The problems with Ajintha, then, are pretty elementary really. The film has no graph, no moments that hook you, no real takeaway. Apart from some well-designed and constructed sets, a few beautiful frames and some intriguing background music, Ajintha has very little going for it for it to make a mark either critically or commercially. This one can safely be given a miss.

Grandmaster - Review

Pradeep Menon — Mon, 14 May 2012 18:51:33 +0530

wogma rating: Watch for sure, preferably in theatre ^(?) - It’ll make for a good TV/DVD watch as well, but true thrills are best enjoyed in the theatre

quick review: Smart for the most part, Grandmaster holds some genuine thrills because of a nicely paced script and an effortless performance from Mohanlal, one that packs a wallop just when it needs to. In spite of some weak character performances, Grandmaster manages to engage you throughout.

Review

Filmmakers looking to avoid flak for screenplay should usually stay clear of the thriller genre, because it is virtually impossible to have a water-tight screenplay and still make a successfully thrilling mystery that hooks the audience from start to end. While I must confess that I least expected it to, Mohanlal-starrer Grandmaster, produced by UTV, actually manages to avoid some of the pitfalls of a serial-killer-murder-mystery story.

Powered by a surprisingly sharp script and a master-class in underplaying a lead character, Grandmaster, directed by Unnikrishnan B, makes for an intriguing watch. Yes, it has its share of flaws in the writing, but the pace of the film rarely lets you dwell on them, diverting attention instead to the mental game of chess that the protagonist is playing, more with himself than with the antagonist.

Chandra Sekhar, played by Mohanlal, is a top cop who is past his prime, more because of a personal problem than anything else. He is now heading the newly-formed Metro Crime Stopper Cell, aimed at preventing crime – a department that is underperforming because of Chandra Sekhar’s weak leadership. A former National-level chess player, Chandra Sekhar’s is jolted out of his mental inertia when the writer of a mysterious letter proclaims that she or he intends to play a deadly game with Chandra Sekhar, one that is intricately tied with Chandra Sekhar’s personal life.

Thus begins a series of murders, embellished with tantalizing clues and mysterious taunts. With each murder, Chandra Sekhar is sucked in further, as he matches his wits with a faceless opponent in what could be the most important game of chess in his life – one where a checkmate could be fatal.

What works the most for Grandmaster is the character of Chandra Sekhar. A man who was once the toast of the police department, now broken and lonely, spurred into action because of a maniacal serial killer. Add to that, a man named Mohanlal.

There aren’t many actors who use their eyes the way Mohanlal does. Perhaps not blessed with as much natural screen presence as some of his superstar contemporaries, his eyes separate his craft from the rest of the pack. They rove about the screen slowly, partaking in the journey towards the resolution that a cinematic character must invariably be rewarded (or punished) with.

Mohanlal plays Chandra Sekhar so subtly and competently that it would be easy to mistake this performance as just one amongst the hundreds that he has given. But look closer and you see just why he is considered one of the finest actors in the country, and why he is my personal favourite Indian actor by some distance. He slips into the character, walking, talking, thinking and fighting the way a wounded tiger forced to protect his domain would.

As mentioned earlier, the film has its share of flaws, primarily in the writing and then in the performances. There are plot holes that could have been avoided, and some situations in the screenplay are a tad farfetched. Also, while the beautiful Priyamani, playing Mohanlal’s ex-wife, is a competent actor, some important side characters are quite weak, crossing over to plain overacting - a huge problem that is compounded because of how subtly Mohanlal has played his character.

It then boils down to just the simple fact that Grandmaster has you on the idiomatic edge of your seat throughout. The film is paced just right, the twists in the screenplay don’t really jar, and the climactic revelation really worked for me, though I must confess I’m not sure how many people would agree with me on that. Nonetheless, for those who like being hooked to a thriller, Grandmaster makes for a decent watch. And to truly savour it, pay special attention to Mohanlal’s eyes.

Parental Guidance:

Recommended, because of a series of murders.

Violence: Action scenes, gun fights and the aforementioned murders.
Language: Aggressive at times, but clean.
Nudity & Sexual content: None.
Concept: An aging cop matches wits with a serial killer.
General Look and Feel: Mostly like a generic serial killer murder mystery.

Ishaqzaade - Review

meetu — Fri, 11 May 2012 17:23:08 +0530

wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD ^(?) - That too only for the actors and treatment, don't expect anything from the story

quick review: A love story we've gotten too used to over the decades to be interesting despite fresh performances and a slick, rustic treatment.

Review

Love stories with characters belonging to rival families have something intrinsically tragic about them. Sometimes the pathos is overwhelming enough to make you ignore everything else that's wrong with the story. At other times though, it could be an Ishaqzaade which isn't sure about how it wants the audience to react to its characters and thus comes across as confused. Add to that a stretched out, predictable climax and you have an uneasy, restless audience.

The first scene introduces Parmar (Arjun Kapoor) as a ruthless, uncouth brat who the audience will very unwillingly call an anti-hero, let alone hero. And no, right to the end, you cannot warm up to his character; empathizing or rooting for his cause is a distant thought. But that also says two things complimentary about the content - Parmar does nothing out of character and is consistent; Arjun Kapoor plays Parmar to perfection because the feeling of disgust towards the character never leaves you.

Exactly the same things can be said about Zoya and Parineeti Chopra the actor who plays Zoya. Zoya is consistently immature and ironically feminine as far as emotion goes, behind all the macho bravado. In fact, Zoya is likable despite this inconsistency because life is a thrill ride for her and death is equally adventurous too. This charm seeps through and that has a lot to do with Parineeti Chopra's refreshing attitude towards being a lead lady in a Hindi film.

Unfortunate as it is, none of this translates into a story that can sustain your interest for over two hours. Ishaqzaade reminded me that "predicable" doesn't just mean the audience guessing exactly what will happen. A story is predicable and a tad more frustratingly so, when the audience guesses two (or more) possible outcomes of a particular situation and both (or all) seem equally done to death.

You could do all of this in style have good camera work and sense of aesthetics but the lack of content is transparent. The dialogues lack the charm of Habib Faisal's debut Do Dooni Chaar. The references - to a woman's place in Indian society, be it a strong-headed girl or a righteous widow, and similar impotence of a man who does whatever it takes because he seeks approval of his role model - are very interesting but do little to how lame the plot is as it culminates. Social message at the end, notwithstanding.

A love story is a love story is a love story. And actually, we expect very little from it, in terms of being different. What we want is to engage with our Romeos and Juliets, we want to feel that a Majnu should unite with his Laila, in this world or beyond. But in Ishaqzaade, you aren't even sure Ranjha deserves Heer. Amidst the endless gun shots, you are hoping for a gun or two to go with the cliche and run out of bullets, so there is some sight of 'The End'.

- meetu, a part of the audience

Parental Guidance:

Violence: loads and loads of gun and fist fights
Language: a decent amount of abuses

Concept: unconditional love and how it defies all that comes it's way.
General Look and Feel: rustic and slick
