Aegan has a star cast of Ajit, Nayanthara, Suman, Piaa, Navdeep and Nassar. Aegan's music director Yuvan Shankar Raja, has done a tremendous job in the film.

Most people can say that Raju Sundaram's 'Aegan' is a copy of Farah Khan's 'Main Hoon Na'. However, he claims that he was inspired by Hollywood film 'Back to School'. Whatever, Aegan produces wholesome entertainment to its viewers. Aegan's story revolves around Shiva, a dare devil cop. He hates crime, criminals and mafias and fights with them singlehandedly. He believes what his father says - "He is a one-man army, who trusts only his gun".

In Aegan movie, Shiva fights with International criminal John Chinnapa, who wants to kill his former aide Ram, who has now become a police approver. Ram is hiding in Ooty, where his daughter is studying. Shiva joins the college as a student and gives protection to Priya, Ram's daughter. Priya's boyfriend Narain turned out to be Shiva's foster brother. Lol....... Are we talking about Aegan or Main Hoon Na?

Like all other movies, the hero wins at last and the villain succumbs. No big deal! Aegan - the Tamil version of Main Hoon Na, is a good one to digest. No doubt about this.

Watch 'Kidnap' Online - Review of Kidnap - Story of Kidnap

2008-10-02T23:22:00.000-07:00

Disappointment for the Bollywood fans continues. After the failure of Drona, if you are planning to watch another big release, "Kidnap", just beware. The talented Imraan Khan of "Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na" is no where in Kidnap. Imraan, who sot into stardom after the success of his debut film, fails to deliver in Kidnap. Yet another box office failure on Eid! Both Drona and Kidnap bomb at the box office.

Kidnap is a story of just two men - Vikranth (Sanjay Dutt) and Kabir (Imraan Khan). Sonia (Manisha Lamba), who is Vikranth's wife, just is a joining link between the two. Vikranth is one of the richest men in the world. Kabir kidnaps his wife Sonia on Christmas and the drama begins...

If you love glamour and masala, then the gorgeous Manisha Lamba is there to entertain you with her style and costumes. But if you are looking for a good story with full entertainment, then you will be disappointed. Songs are ok, costumes are great, even the picturisation is very nice. But the script is very poor.

There are several situation where you will feel let down by the director and script writers. Some scenes and situations are completely unrealistic. Even though 'Kidnap' is little better than 'Drona', it still cannot be considered as a movie to watch for.

Watch Drona Online - Review of Drona (Poor Rating)

2008-10-02T22:57:00.000-07:00

The Drona Abhishek Bachchan and his bodyguard Priyanka Chopra failed the enthral the viewers. Do you know that Drona was reportedly made at a budget of Rs. 90 crore? Will the producers be able to retrieve the money they have spent??? A 90-crore questions indeed!

Riz recognizes Aditya as Drona. He wants to capture him, but Sonia (Priyanka Chopra) rescued Aditya (Drona) and revealed that he was the Drona. The fight begins and eventually good prevailed over the evil. So, where is the excitement? Nowhere! There is nothing in the movie, which will set the box office on fire.

Another Jhoom Barabar Jhoom from Abhishek Bachchan.

Friday Release: Review of "Hari Puttar - The Comedy of Terrors"

2008-09-26T05:50:00.000-07:00

The directors of "Hari Puttar - The Comedy of Terrors" promised a lot, but delivered little. the much-awaited children's movie turned out to be a huge disappointment. Hari Puttar is not even remotely inspired from Harry Potter. It's all about desi masala and makes a complete mess of the story line and drama.

Hari Prasad or Hari Putar is a 10-year-old kid, who moved from India to UK. His father is a scientist, who works on a secret defence project with the UK government. When Hari arrived in London, he was ridiculed by other kids and felt lonely, unwanted and humiliated. He and his family later had a face-off with some goons. The kids led by Hari Puttar fought the goons and etc. etc.

What a disappointing script! There is nothing to cheer about. If you want to watch the movie, then do it at your own risk. If you manage to stay inside the movie hall for full time, then come back home with some Nimulid-MD or Saridon. That will help you to recover from the headache and mental shock.
