Watched Silent House yesterday. Very good horror movie. This is an atmospheric horror and the tension is palpable throughout. Elizabeth olsen delivers a good performance.

I don't think Faun trolled .. there's BR version of Malena available ;)

Malena Blu-ray (United Kingdom)
Amazon.com: Malena [Blu-Ray + DVD] Uncut Limited Edition (Korean Import, Region Free): luciano federico: Movies & TV

Yeah know melana blu ray was released recently but see who is suggesting :p ;) that's why I said trolled

Its an amazing movie.... Restart as soon as possible. And don't read about it
If you mean now you see me.
Then Its an average to the best. That is just my view. But Amazing definitely is not a proper word to use here.

Dhoom 3 5/10

Small review (Too tired from the exhausting movie viewing to write a full one)

D1 and D2 had a story. The heists were planned well and and the most exciting part were the execution of the plans. Heists were the USP of for the thieves along with the awesome bikes.

Somehow the new director while taking over the D3 project remembered only the bike stunts and forgot about the story part altogether. As a result we get a long movie having extended chase sequences.

Action scenes (bike chase scenes) are well executed though. They had shown some impossible stunts but I would overlook them saying the director took liberty of artistic imagination.

Aamir overacts (he did in previous few movies too but you really had to be looking for it to see them but in D3 its easily noticeable)
They took Katrina for 4 item songs.
Abhishek seemed to be in default mode.
Uday Chopra...I did not know I would say that but seems to be improving. In previous installments he used to take himself seriously but not any more.
And, oh...Aamir tried to dance and Katrina did throw here limbs here and there too. Many would call that dancing.

Songs are forgettable. And they spent 5 crores for that Malang song?!!!
(And, I've not touched the loopholes, yet)

Why you should watch:-
>Its holiday season. You have monies to spend.
>If movies are your only getaway, go for it.
>If you love bikes and bike stunts, go for it.
>4 item songs of Katrina...dancing
>One scene between Aamir and his brother. Proves how good actor he is. But, only one scene of 5 mins in a 172 mins movie.
If not even that motivates you to watch this movie, IDK if you should watch this movie.

@ rhitwick, Sure this is not a biased review right?
Saying D-2 had a story is a joke.
However I have to agree that couple of points mentioned by you are matching with the other reviews. One of them being the extended chase sequences.

Can you tell me those movies in which SRK overacted?
I'm Sorry Aamir.
So you have something to say about their dancing skills as well. Interesting.

Don't you think Aamir and brother thing should go in the spoiler section? You are spoiling the fun here.

Honestly none of the reasons to watch look strong enough.
I feel you are being sarcastic.

I have nothing personal against you but I sometimes feel you go overboard with SRK and his movies praise and start nit picking with other actors movies.

Also I would be honest enough to admit that I don't have huge expectations from D-3 considering the last two instalments.
I want to watch it only for Aamir Khan.

I will post my reviews once I catch it very soon. Then we would be knowing if your opinions match with mine.

Please use the movie review thread.:)

Btw i agree too that D2 had NO story at all but it was fast and stylish. More like advertisement for some products.:D But still it was a good one time watch!
