^ I enjoyed Identity. End was not so clear, but a good thriller, nonetheless.

Agreed, but I just want to say he started as a normal other actor in the industry only in the last 10 years his movies have been different.
Dude, u were talking about acting skills of Aamir. Now tell me how much acting skill does Aamir show in Ghajini?Yaar I liked that movie...and so did all those who made it earn more than Rs. 202 Crore...which is no small deal...
What clicks for Ghajini is (as I think)
>Totally new concept
>Aamir having six pack
>Aamir doing an out and out action movie (previously he did Baazi and Sarfarosh but those were not such action movies...comparable is Ghulam)
>A totally different track for love story (I've heard enough people saying he/she liked the love story part in Ghajini more)
Again the bottom line is, he did a different movie but the movie lacked the scope to churn out the actor in him.
And I'm a SRK fanboy, I know what u mean
@rhitwick
among all actors in bollywood..Aamir is the best..He is Tom Hanks of India
Seriously, I'm daring to say here because u won't be at least able tol kill me
But give it a serious thought, what is Aamir's contribution in 3Idiots as ac actor. He failed big time portraying a first year engineering student.
Age not matching, body language not matching, eye movement is comical.
More engineering students should have been studied b4 writing the minute details about them and creating a guideline for Aamir.
And accept the main thing, 3 Idiots is hit because of its screenplay not Aamir.
It has some repeated mail forward jokes, incoherent scenes, totally illogical screenplay.
Only concept made it a big hit.
I would compare 3 Idiots with Avatar. I liked Titanic, liked the love story in it.
The eye 2008 is a remake of Korean The Eye (2002). The original one is good. b/w it has been remade into Hindi as Naina with Urmila as protagonist.
Haven't seen Identity.

Identity is amazing. Understand or not, you will enjoy it
Shelter is a bit on similar lines with a supernatural touch. Interesting.
Fight Club and Identity are amongst the best in the genre.
Aamir is good. But even though he does movies with different themes, his acting is a bit monotonous. I still love him though. But my personal favorite these days is Abhay Deol.
Again, I found Irfan Khan phenomenal when I watched him first in Haasil. But then he became monotonous and his Vodafone chota recharge ads suck! He still is interesting actor.
By the way, a reminder again. Those who like dark humor should watch Six Shooter by the director who directed In Bruges. Its just a 30 mins movie but totally worth a watch! Strong Irish accent so would recommend it with subtitles.

Hachi: A Dog's Tale (2009) - Watched an amazing movie after a long time. Cutest dog. A heavy tear-jerker. A must watch for dog fans and non fans. The movie was a dud because some dumb distribution company ruined it in marketing. But Sony has stepped up and released it for DVD sales. Hope this movie gets the attention it deserves. Highly recommended.

^ yep it was one good movie.........
Right. Those forwarded jokes were quite lame and it was let down for me from such a movie. Scenes were incoherent too, like that electric shock one.
I can vouch for that.

Folks please suggest some good horror flicks.
Preferably with lesser scenes.

Guys I'm unable to create new thread. whenever I try to create one I get a message saying need to enter more 10 characters. I'm sure that I'm entering more than that.
Any help guys. Sorry for posting it over here.

Watch '1408'.Not too scary and don't have much disturbing scenes but very thrilling.

Yes, that is the movie....
Its a great action movie...but yeah I've a one or two issues with such kinda movies...i.e. the hero and his partners never run out of bullet.
Well I might just be nitpicking...apart from that it sure kicks ass of the recent so called action movies.
And the print I got was blurry at times
Hard Boiled.........right away dude...
In IMDB someone wrote this about Hard Boiled "The mother, father, brother, and third cousin of all action films"
