The first one was way too old. So didn't feel like watching it.
The Haunting in Connecticut - 7/10.
Can't wait for Transformers: ROTF to release this weekend.

Democracy is a myth
Notebook...u wrote about Notebook right??
Krow
Crowman
Stardust. Based upon novel by Neil Gaiman, famous comic book writer. First romantic movie that I liked. Its Fantasy too.
Not WW, but awesome all the same :
Apocalypse Now
Full Metal Jacket
Both Vietnam, both awesome.
Indiana Jones 1 - 6/10 - Dint like it that much.
Indiana Jones 2 - 3/10 - Far too stereotyped! No wonder Steven was denied permission to shoot in India!

Yeah but also I was talking about someone else's suggestion about Love Actually.Notebook...u wrote about Notebook right??
I didn't like U, Me Aur Hum that much I hope Notebook which is the original movie is far better coz I read from here in this thread that it's a good movie better than the Hindi one.

Democracy is a myth
I've not seen U, Me aur hum. But after seeing trailers (I've not seen Notebook till then too) decided not to watch it. I felt it won't be good.
What works for a film may not work for another.
U need to create the environment and then gradually feed the audience the trauma, pain, sorrow of the protagonists.
When I saw Notebook I got that it can't be remade. (but I liked "Away from her" much, concept is similar to Notebook but more heart wrenching)
I've not yet seen "Love Actually" (but the concept matches with Hrithik's new movie Kites
)

It's actually Salam-e-Ishq which has borrowed the plot from Love Actually, or atleast some elements of it.I've not yet seen "Love Actually" (but the concept matches with Hrithik's new movie Kites

Loved transformers. First day first show. Megan fox was oozing hotness. OMG!!
It was so damn cold in the theater else would have surely come.
Awesome graphics, treat for your eyes. The storyline was better in the first part though.

Transformers2 8.5/10
Well, coming straight from the theater. Here is my review.
(This time more about the environment)
Place: Cinemax Wonder mall, Thane west (Yes, venue is most important)
Show Time: 8:15PM (And I came back at 11:45PM)
8:15PM: We are waiting for the show to start. Highly anticipating for another mind blowing flick. The film is not starting.
8:25PM: Still nothing. Asked the doorkeeper what happened, he told its just gonna start.
8:35PM: Still nothing. A few of us charged the doorkeeper and demanded the manager. And came to know a (shocking?!) truth. The Print of the movie has not yet reached to this hall. i.e. somewhere the first half of the movie is still not finished so we have to wait. Being a civilized mob we wait.
8:40PM: In between the scratched audio CD they were playing started repeating the songs. Now at least 10-15 guys of us charged again. Started whistling, booing, shouting. (Oh, it remembered my college dayz.. ). Oh yeah, the movie has not started!!!
8:45PM: At last, at last it started. Half an hour wasted.
Movie: Good.
Story: Do u need?
GFX: Awesome!!! Do a favor to ur eyes, watch it only in big screen.
It was a 2.5 hrs movie and if I count the total time spent only in dialogs it would be 30min approx. Rest is action only. Yes this is the movie I like. No long lecture on moral values etc. U r good, he's bad. He deserves to die. Concluded.
-1: But, it some how failed to build the tension. Well, hero falls and gets up eventually but won't just feel the pain, u won't feel the anxiety while he fights (I at least felt something is missing).
-2: Well this is only view. Maxi,um fight scenes are close up. Means two big autobots are fighting and u r taking closeup shots (or showing it to audience). I kinda confused who is beating whom. Where is he hitting, how? As they were very fast paced action, I kinda got lost in it. at least show it from such an angle that full body is seen of them.
Rest is ok. Check it out.
(Any more superhero, fantasy must watch movie gonna release near by? Anyone knows?)
Oh, I forgot to mention, we got another 10 mins interval break. I guess they were waiting for the second part of the movie to finish in another screen
Verdict: Good movie, bad experience.
