Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (2012) movie review (3.5/5)

noreply@blogger.com (DrRaman) — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 13:51:00 +0000

Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is a romantic comedy by Karan Johar with Imran Khan, Kareena Kapoor and Boman Irani as lead stars.

Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu movie review

1. EK MAIN AUR EKK TU is a slick, breezy and pleasant fare that should click with its target audience -- the youth -- and also has the potential to woo the older spectators as well. - Taran Adarsh, BollywoodHungama.com: 4/5

2. It is the sweetest heartbreak that Bollywood has conjured in a long, long time. It works both as a college buddy movie and a date movie. - Avijit Ghosh, Times of India: 4/5

3. The film is light and breezy, and mercifully never turns too syrupy for your taste. - Rajeev Masand, CNN IBN: 3/5

4. Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is an entertaining and enjoyable fare for the city audience. Watch it for the performances and the clever handling of a different story. - Komal Nahta, Koimoi.com: 3/5

5. Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is a gentle little film, where even the regulation song with Americans dancing to Bollywood music in the middle of Vegas don't look so bad. - Kaveree Bamzai, India Today: 3.5/5

Gali Gali Chor Hai (2012) movie review (2.5/4)

noreply@blogger.com (DrRaman) — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 13:59:00 +0000

Gali Gali Chor Hai is a comedy Bollywood film directed by Rumi Jaffery with main leads of Akshaye Khanna, Shriya Saran and Mugdha Godse.

Synopsis
The movie is based on the comedy arising out of corruption in the country.

Gali Gali Chor Hai movie review

1.Gali Gali Chor Hai will not get the appreciation of the audience. Given its poor start, it cannot hope to pick up, due to lack of positive word of mouth.Watch it if you want to see a well-intentioned film which also boasts of good performances. - Komal Nahta, Koimoi.com: 1/5

2. GALI GALI CHOR HAI amuses intermittently. Fortunately, the movie goes public at a juncture when anti-corruption appears to be the essence of the season. - Taran Adarsh, BollywoodHungama.com: 2.5/5

3. Gali Gali Chor Hai doesn't live up to its promise.- Avijit Ghosh, Times of India: 2.5/5

4. A shallow satire. - Sonia Chopra, Sify.com: 2.5/5

Agneepath (2012) movie review (3/5)

noreply@blogger.com (DrRaman) — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 09:59:00 +0000

Agneepath (2012) is a action movie directed by Karan Malhotra for Karan Johar, It's main leads includes Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra and Sanjay Dutt.

Synopsis
Hrithik Roshan will play the role originally played by Amitabh Bachchan. Priyanka Chopra will be the female lead. The character played by Mithun Chakraborty has been totally done away with in the remake. The main villain will be played by Sanjay Dutt and Rishi Kapoor will play another negative character.

Agneepath movie review

1. Agneepath is a visual delight. Karan Malhotra works hard with the new script that he has co-penned. Agneepath isn't a cyclostyled copy of the 1990 film which was made by Yash Johar. - Avijit Ghosh, Times of India: 3/5

2. AGNEEPATH is a fitting tribute to the masterwork. The movie has all the potential to scale dizzy heights of victory and catapult Hrithik Roshan as the newest member of the 100 cr Club. - Taran Adarsh, BollywoodHungama.com: 4.5/5

3. Agneepath is a surefire hit, no questions asked! It will shake the box-office today (Republic Day) and in the first weekend. - Komal Nahta, ETC & Koimoi.com: 4/5

4. Debut director Karan Malhotra shows great promise in making the film visually arresting and maintaining the consistency of performances. Agneepath is worth a watch essentially to savor Hrithik’s performance. - Sonia Chopra, Sify.com: 3/5

5. Agneepath’s big win – meshing the past and present into one big blockbuster – this is the original unadulterated Bollywood flick. - Piyali Dasgupta, NDTV: 3.5/5

4084 Chaalis Chauraasi movie review (3/5)

noreply@blogger.com (DrRaman) — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 07:53:00 +0000

4084 Chaalis Chauraasi is a comedy directed by Hriday Shetty with main star cast of Naseeruddin Shah, Atul Kulkarni, Kay Kay Menon and Ravi Kissen.

Synopsis
Four friends Pankaj, Bobby, Shakti Chinappa and Albert Pinto rob a lonely house having Rs 20 crore fake currency and the fake note vending machine that lies in there. Things take a twist when another cop stops their van en-route and takes them as his backup to catch a dangerous gangster.

4084 Chaalis Chauraasi movie review

1. A film low on publicity and marketing can also be a boomer proving all the laws of Bollywood wrong. Go, enjoy a refreshing new genre of comedy.- Nikhat Kazmi, Times of India: 3.5/5

2. CHAALIS CHAURAASI has an attention-grabbing premise and some truly wonderful scenes, but the writing lacks the energy and dynamism to keep you hooked. It inconsistent. It could've done with a better script!- Taran Adarsh, BollywoodHungama.com: 2/5

3. In spite of presence of big names, the flick fails in the innovation department, and hence, comes out as a run- of- the- mill fare. Its first half is lackluster and overall impact is average. - K K Rai, Stardust: 2/5

4. This one's a dhamaal entertainer, with suspense and comedy thrown in at crucial moments to spice up the events that happen in one night. - Martin D'Souza, GlamSham.com: 3/5
