rhitwick is right about salman and aamir,
kofee with karan, latest season, in salman episode salman says he is blessed with a fan following and aamir works much harder in his movies
in aamir episode, aamir says he has to work hard on making his films a success, but salman only has to put his goggles in shirt back and jiggle his belt for a hit
so both of them agree on that point

So you guys are now judging the quality of an indian movie by the hit or flop status at box office :confused: . So the best movie ever will be dhoom 3 followed by krrish 3 followed by chennai express. Am i rite :p

Since Ray, Ritwik Ghatak and few other legends passed away yes, we Indians see a movie and decide it by those nonsense things like Box office. Look at the rating of Chennai Express, 6/10, if a trash like that gets that then our potty should be rated 8 minimum :)

According to your statement don't you think you could be wrong too & that was a quick opinion you made. Those majority have atleast seen the movie in that format.

Saw this movie today , much hyped : Dhoom 3.
All I would say is that , this movie would have been a waste of time , if not for Aamir Khan's valuable role. The only part of movie , which I considered upto the mark.
And he was the only reason , I saw this movie in first place. Otherwise I am very much aware of the level of idiocracy indian cinema has when it comes to stunt and action movie and acting in it.(specially with Abhi Bacchan.)

Watched abraham lincoln vampire hunter. What did i just watch?. :D . While the visuals are nice, its hard to digest the fact that american civil war was actually fought against vampires. The premise is so ridiculous yet everyone acting in serious tone makes so many parts laughable i.e.
when lincoln's son is dying due to a lady vampire having bitten her
. They should have gone all out and made a complete parody. That mite have been better.

The author, upon whose work the movie is based has written 2 other novels - pride and prejudice and ZOMBIES & sense and sensibility and SEA MONSTERS :p

The Marine 2 - definetly a must not watch.

The Children 2008 - pretty much scary and don't fall for inocent faces even if it's of a child :D

The Slumber Party Massacre 1982 - now this one is a underrated classic but the only BIG CON is it revealed the identity of the main character from the very beginning which ruined the suspense these kinds of movies usually should have.

BTW, going to watch Mischief - this old 80's classic is really HOT ;)

Drishyam - 9/10

A must watch thriller .

Drishyam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The film opened to magnificent critical response. Sify.com's reviewer gave the verdict "Excellent" and stated, "It is not often that you sit in a theatre with bated breath, never wanting to miss a moment of the film on screen. Writer director Jeethu Joseph’s Drishyam is one such film, a gripping tale that leaves you spellbound with its skillful craft."[SUP][8][/SUP] Veeyen of Nowrunning.com rated the film 3/5 and commented, "In Drishyam Jeethu attempts a stunning mix of the real with the imaginary, and the result is an unpredictable cinematic artichoke that takes you by surprise at every turn."[SUP][9][/SUP] Rating the film 3.5/5, Paresh C Palicha of Rediff.com said, "Drishyam can be credited for bringing Mohanlal back to form and pushing director Jeethu Joseph into the big league as he has made a cracker of a thriller."[SUP][10][/SUP] Jabir Mushthari of The Hindu wrote: "It takes craft, intelligence, and the superior acumen of a genuine storyteller to pull off a film in such an engaging manner." He also noted that the film's "thread and treatment are new to Malayalam cinema in many ways" and its "principles go against the set rules film goers here are familiar with".[SUP][11][/SUP] Shibu B S of The New Indian Express wrote : "For his latest outing ‘Drishyam’, Jeethu attempts a splendid mix of emotions, relationships, suspense and thrill. End result: a spectacular cinematic experience."[SUP][12][/SUP] Dalton L of Deccan Chronicle gave the film a 3-star rating and was all praise for Mohanlal's performance: "The limelight belongs entirely to Mohanlal. Like the versatile greats of Hollywood, this actor possesses such a vast repertoire that he isn’t required to always attempt the radically new to stamp his towering persona."[SUP][13][/SUP] Aswin J Kumar of The Times of India said, "Drishyam is an elegantly crafted piece of film which Lal and Joseph can proudly hold close to their hearts."[SUP][14][/SUP] Unni R. Nair wrote in his review for Kerala9.com: "The care with which the script is done, the finesse with which the direction part is executed and the characterization and performance plus the thoughtful placing of the songs makes ‘Drishyam’ worth real appreciation. That the film has almost zero-‘filmy’ humour is also worth noting. It’s the logical manner in which the story unfolds and the very convincing manner in which the characters behave makes it impressive." The critic rated the film three in a scale of five.[SUP][15][/SUP] Indiaglitz.com's reviewer rated the film 8/10 and stated: "Drishyam is undoubtedly cladded with exceptional story telling combined with bravura performances. An undoubtedly exceptional film as far the content is concerned, the movie is a must watch for all the audiences of family and thriller movies."[SUP][16][/SUP] Subhash Sabu of Yentha.com concluded his review saying, "A well knit thriller, which can keep you on the edge of your seats for most of the time. Easily one of the best films to have released in Malayalam this year. Very rarely you will get to see a thriller of such sheer brilliance."

I know where you saw it :D


Well I too watched The Hobbit : The desolation of Smaug - Rating - 9/10 Way better than AUJ and this is a movie which you can see quite a few times even if it is 2 and half hour long it does not feel like it , time flows to quickly , One of the best of this year . The CGI was great the acting was great the Action it never stopped . Good to see Legolas again and Tauriel was a lovely addition and SMAUG - He is FIRE , He is DEATH . Benedict Cumberbatch was superb choice for voicing Smaug . Pumped up for There and Back Again .
