Aren't you people tired of watching hollywood movies? Don't know about yo all, but I am now thinking for a change, and really want to watch some nice bollywood movies.

I would appreciate recommendations, some movies, which doesn't include..
1. A lot of lov-shov
2. Too many songs.
3. Larger than life characters (so remove all shahrukh movies )
4. No faltu comedy (like Golmaal etc...)
5. I think you got the point..

I would like to see movies on themes of friendship, unclear themes, if possible based on sci-fi (which I think isn't any).
Besides all of those, pls recommend any movie which you think redefines Indian movies and so are must to watch.

PLEASE!! Help me..

La horde - another good zombie flick and my rating for tis is 6.5 and I watched version anyway

Many thanks to rhitwick, buddyram and a_medico for the list! That's quite a long list to cover! Considering that I had a little interest in hindi cinemas, its not surprizing to observe that I had watched just 3 of films on these lists: LSD, Ek chalis ki last local and A Wednesday!

Btw, I watched one film in the mean time, which I think, is a must watch, specially on the occasion of Mother's day tomorrow: Dasvidaniyan! MUST WATCH!

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2005) - 6/10
a bad ending & hot babes

 

[Faun]

Kill the Irishman. Absolutely wonderful.

The Exorcism of Emily Rose 7.5/10

Very nice concept for a horror movie, tries to put both logical and supernatural angle in front of the audience. Its upon you, what you choose.

Must watch for sure.

Source Code 7.5/10

Source Code=Deja Vu+Matrix+Inception

Only Deja Vu had a strong storyline and more perfect emotional bonding. Then again, I'm comparing Denzel Washington with Jake Gyllenhaal.

I am number four 6/10

At times I thought, I'm watching "Dragon Ball Z", then the special effects reminded its not!

Not good and not too bad. A bit just below avg. movie. Watch it, if you have much time to waste. And don't care what is happening in the screen.

Event Horizon

A rescue crew investigates a spaceship that disappeared into a black hole and has now returned...with someone or something new on-board

Bride of Chucky - 5.5/10

 

[Ethan_Hunt]

Just came back from Fast Five and this, by far, is the best Fast and Furious movie till date. Beats all the other films by a long shot. The last half an hour would keep you on the edge of the seat and you'll be literally going "Holy sh*t, how did they do that?". Sound and visual effects were fantastic. The camera angles in some shots were brilliantly executed. All the action felt raw, the fist fights, especially.

Fast cars, Cheesy humour, sweet ass chicks, action, emotion, you'll get it all in this movie. Definitely a good summer action flick.

Word of advice: Stay back for a few minutes post the credits and you're in for a real surprise.
