^^^ Me too watched Gunda yesterday. But just till Lamboo Aata[/] is killed by Bulla. I really feel his role should have been a bit more longer. He is the top performer in the movie. And mind you, its not easy to steal the limelight in a movie when Mithunda is around! So thats quite an achievement.

Next on the list :-
One upon a time in highschool :D
Sympathy for lady vengeance

Just back from Mamma Mia (yeah, I went to the theatre with my friends).. and it pretty much sucked.

-2/10. The story is OKish, and there are SOOO many boring songs that we all were sleeping. If you remove the songs from the movie, the remaining footage will hardly be 25mins :|.

It is a Musical, so I think it's a case of expectation mismatch. :D

If you like Gunda, you would also like Deshdrohi. :D

Guys, thos who have survived Gunda, plz explain my confusion, I've already posted it in the first post of this page,
Again posting here,
on recommendation of some members of this forum, I've just survived the movie "Gunda", yes it the one with Mithunda
Guys, its an epic, its a milestone, it has everything...2 rape scenes, lots of villains, chase, betray, emotional blackmail, animal helping etc, i mean everything that can be imagined.
But, I was not able to calculate one thing, at some time, our villains came to kill Mithunda. They came by at least 25 taxis, but only 5 people came down from it. My question is where were the other people, how 25 taxis were driven by 5 men:confused::rolleyes:

^^^ hehehe... the director went a bit out of budget. But did you notice, Mithunda uses a rocket-launcher to blow up an autorikshaw in the end scene!

The guys driving taxis were not goons, they were just cabwallahs transporting the 5 bad guys to Mithunda.

With most of the Bollywood movies, one MUST leave the logic,judgement and brains behind. Just enjoy! :D

Let me see what I got out of the bag this week:

Zack & Mirri make a Porno - 6/10. Started off good but end got clichéd to death.

My Best Friend's Girl - 7/10. A little better than the above as Dane Cook's spontaneous acting & humor just adds a zing to the film.

The Ruins - 8/10. I think I have mentioned this movie before but what the heck it's still pretty good thriller (slash) horror flick.

and then a lot of TV series but that's in another thread I guess. ;)

One upon a time in highschool - Was cool as expected. Had Jo jeeta wohi Sikandar touch to it.

Definitely a movie which gives you a Deja Vu feel. Track during the end credits was cool. Will hunt for it.

Oye Lucky Lucky Oye - 7.5/10. A dark comedy and dialogues are fun. May prove bit difficult who are not accustomed to the lingo used in North of India.

Yes..i realised that later after reading some times/rediff review. Even Dan in real life was fun.

Oye Lucky really must be one of the most entertaining movies to come out in recent times. As you said....lingo remains the main barrier.

He was a quiet man 7/10

^^lol...is it some kind of trap ? :p
I'm not into intellectual movies but avoids typical run_for_money kinda movies.

I will get it and watch it (looks interesting), currently going to watch The Bow by Kim Ki Duk. Will update this post later with a brief review.


The Bow - I knew already that it will be another good work by Kim Ki Duk. Music is as always mesmerizing, there is not much dialogs so it has a universal language as you can understand it with just the expressions and gestures of actors. Metaphorical and symbolic movie though compared to other works by same director it was a bit straight forward. You know it won't have the ending like you thought when it is directed by KKD. But I think I understood it and interpreted it well...albeit some things I missed were clarified in discussion board. I love this movie now !
If anyone plans to watch the movies by this director then start with 3 Iron and Spring,Summer,Fall,Winter ...and Spring.
