7 Khoon Maaf




Nice experiment. But not of my taste.

Pluses:

  • Indian movies are growing in terms of quality. 
  • Direction was different, pleasant at times, while at times irritating.
  • Priyanka Chopra can act :)
  • Neil Nitin Mukesh was unexpectedly handsome, dashing and good actor. :D
  • Irfan Khan was good too.

Minuses:


  • But not a v practical script. 
  • Priyanka looked at her worst.
  • Hated John somehow :(
  • V V slow movie.
  • It could have been a better movie, if they reduced the murders to just 3 husbands and reduced the length to 2 hours.
  • Dragged a lot.


My Rating: 2.5/5

The mechanic




Not a bad watch. Nothin spectacular either.

Pluses:

Jason Statham in the last 20 mins of the movie.Rest of the movie wasnt a Jason flick at all.

Minuses:

  • Ben Foster steals the limelight. Not that i mind, but mind u, audience have come for Jason, not him.
  • Dont expect too much of action. In fact there is hardly any action n the flick. :(

My Rating: 2.5/5

No Strings attached



Romantic flick. I know i know, not really my type of movie. Just for a change :)

Absolute time pass.Nothin great, nothing too bad either. :)

Pluses:

  • Adult content :D :D :D I bet you gals will love Ashton Kutcher even more :D
  • In fact, the only good part of the movie was Ashton Kutcher :)
  • Woman empowerment in relations depicted very well, i love it :D

Minuses:

  • Natalie Portman. Guys will be disappointed, no clothe sheddin, and most importantly no flesh to expose :P
  • Very very cliche script :(


My Rating: 2.25/5

Ye saali zindagi





Not a bad watch.

It had gave a v mixed kinda reactions, a few part is v classic while rest v cliche. At one scene, u feel "u r lovin the show", on the other, u feel why is it been dragged unnecessarily.

Pluses:

  • Irfan Khan,undoubtedly.Very subtle in all facets of emotions.:)
  • Arunoday Singh was good too, he had an awesome combination of cute looks and tough character :)
  • Some really classy scenes in bits and parts earned it the rest of the rating n saved it from being a trash.


Minuses:

  • Chitrangada Singh. I expected a lot out of her. She was quite a disappointment that way. 
  • Songs were Oh!! so horrible to bear, and over that Chitrangada in it, somehow felt she was forced into it, her body just doesnt move.
  • Script could have been cut short to 2 hours. It dragged at a lot of places.


My Rating: 2.5/5

Sanctum





Yet another real life based adventure movie. Not much of action in it, felt like another " 127 Hours". Rest is open to your imagination. :)

Pluses:

Location was superb.Apart from it there was nothing much to watch in it.


Minuses:
  • Dont even think of watchin it in 3D. Waste.
  • Rest you could refer to the 'Minuses' from '127 Hours' :D apart from being absolutely inactive. (Since here its a story of a team and not a single person) :D

Dil to bachcha hai ji




Light hearted entertaintment. Sigh of reflief!!! Finally some non serious movie :)

Pluses:

  • Emraan Hashmi!!! Everyone else is overshadowed in front of his screen presence :)
  • Good and light humour, and of course typical Emraan Hashmi jokes :)
  • Movie at least doesnt feel like dragged!! So can be enjoyed.
  • Songs are as expected soothing and melodious. You have Emraan in the movie, and a few pluses are sheer copy+paste :D


Minuses:

  • All the lead females!!! Horrible!! Especially Shruti Hassan.
  • The role of Shruti almost felt forced in, she wasnt required really.


My Rating: 3/5
