yeah true.what i actually meant was that majority of the registerd users there voted it as an average. 5/10 where as it should have been a little bit higher say 6.5/10.

This is England - 5/10.didnt click with me,although the role of Combo in the movie is very well portrayed.
Knowing - 6.5/10.Good sci-fi apocalypse-oriented movie with much better story and direction.Much better than the sh1te thats released in this genre nowadays.
Saint Ralph - 7/10 great movie about a guy who participates in the Boston Marathon in 1954,and goes on almost to win it just in the hope that 'the miracle will cure his mum in coma' Good story and great acting.

Requiem for a dream is not just about drug addiction.
Watch it dubbed in Hindi and the fun factor increases by 10 fold.

Karthik Calling Karthik 5.5/10
This movie could have been so much but just hurried (slowed down). It could easily touch height of 13B but failed miserably.
The problem with this movie is speed. Yes its not constant. Sometimes things are happening so fast that you keep losing track and sometimes its so slow that bores you to death.
And another thing is that, in this movie every major actions are too much.
When Karthik's boss scolds him its too much, he goes overboard, shouts at him in front of everyone even calls everyone and then shouts at him.
When Karthik fights back he also does too much. Threats his boss, mocks him, etc and gets job.
When Deepika ignores Karthik that is also too much. Both of them works in same office for last 4 yrs (small office though) but she doesn't recognize him at all.
When she falls in love with him that is also too much. She starts staying with him, est, sleep all...
When she splits with him that also happens just in half an hour.
You see these all make 1/3 of the whole story now you guess in 120mins duration, they tried to show everything of Karthik's life so all scenes became very speedy.
Then where does it slow down?
Yes, the most un-necessary extension of Karthik and Deepika's in-romance scenes. Why? I'm totally clueless on it. Movie could have been 15 mins short or other scenes could have proper approach, or environment for them to begin and end.
Let me just ignore other loopholes.
Karthik is an MBA (Topper), CA(Topper) but works in a small construction office!!! Why? I just can't imagine this contrast!!!
He donates 5Lacs per month in children orphanage, then how much he earns? 30 lacs? 40lacs? Why does he stay in a small 1BHK then?
His psychologist is treating him for years but don't yet know he is a schizophrenic!!!
Psychologists explanation are as n00bish for his conditions as it would be if I try to write its medical explanation.
All in all a good concept for a thriller but totally wasted.
Farhan as Karthik is the only reason you should watch it and its in "Must watch" thread.
And, when will someone tell Deepika that she can't act and needs to attend acting school.
Rest all are not very much mentionable.
Imagine That 6/10
Okz, have you seen Bedtime Stories? What? yes? Then you may skip this.
This has two different things to offer to you then if you decide to watch it. Eddie Murphy and his screen daughter.
Its always a treat to watch Eddie Murphy, but the child artist has given him a hard time in this movie. Their father-daughter chemistry is very beaulifully portrayed. Iver much liked their diner scene when she cooks pan-cake for him and he eats.
Rest, nothing special.

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift - This was the final movie that I had to watch to complete my Fast and the Furious series. It was pretty good I must say. The drifting in the movie actually made me want to try NFS: Carbon or Codemaster's GrID again, alas I suck at it. I loved a certain dialogue which Han says to Sean:
Shawn Boswell: Why'd you let me race your car? You knew I was gonna wreck it.
Han: Why not?
Shawn Boswell: 'Cause that's a lot of money.
Han: I have money. What I need around me is trust and character. And one car, in exchange for finding out what a man's made of, is a price I can live with.
I loved the way it was delivered, pretty inspiring. Loved the soundtrack too. It was totally kick-ass, especially the "Six Days" Track from DJ Shadow feat. Mos Def.
Now off to get AVATAR's Blu-Ray edition.

It suffered from retarded acting. The action was good, no questions there, but the rest of the parts didn't really cut it for me. The initial parts where Shia LaBeouf has to go to college and his mother starts jabbering, that's when the stupidity begins. The first movie had limited doses of it and it was quite subtle, most of all, not annoying. LaBeouf's acting was horrible to be honest and let's face it, Fox can't act for sh*t. The first one had the fresh feeling of introducing the Auto-bots and Decepticons, but the second one failed to create a similar impact.

No Arnie = No Predators for me. Why in the blue f*ck would anyone cast Adrien Brody in a Predator movie?

I enjoyed the first AVP. The second one was pathetic. So not sure how this remake is going to fare. I hope they don't screw it up and same goes for A Nightmare on the Elm Street remake. They would be destroying classics out here.
