Yeah I watched Watchmen - The Director's Cut version a year back ,didn't like it though . Maybe its got to do something with Snyder (I didnt like 300 either) or the comic itself. I am expecting something better from Man of Steel. Yeah I say again TDK didnt have any MAJOR CGI scene unlike other superhero movie. But You cant just think it wouldn't have any of it every kind of film nowadays have CGI in them .I get your point about RA.ONE with the storyline stuff , The main problem is that Bollywood movies do not have big budget like Hollywood Blockbuster to carry the vfx of such grand standard . Even though RA.ONE was made in about 150 or something crore , what is it in USD about 25 Million . Some very old movies like Superman (1978) had a budget of 55 million.

Ok Men. Let's end the battle and do some rating here.
Being There (1979) - IMDb - 10/10
I had this movie for a long time and decided to give a try today. Was puzzled, because the movie is very old (1979)..
Watched and amazed by the screenplay and acting by the story's main character "Chauncey Gardiner", portrayed by Peter Sellers.
Plot goes like this..
Chance(main character) works for a wealthy man in Washington DC, from his childhood and he had no contact to the Outside world. All he knew was the TV in his room, Manor he worked for and the owner. One day, the wealthy man died and he was forced to walk out of the Manor by the owner's son, so that he can sell the manor. With no worldly knowledge, he wanders here and there and . . . . . . . . . . he grew up to the level, for the potential replacement of POTUS.
So, how's a man with NO worldly knowledge grew up to the top level. That's where the story lies.
Do give it a try, if you want to see a classic sort of movie.

Bad Taste (1987) - 7/10
one hilarious comedy,horror & gory movie...directed by Peter Jackson and he also acted in this movie...
a must watch
The Deadly Spawn (1983) - 6.5/10
This movie is a little creepy initially specially the under basement scene and also a gory movie

U didn't check my post I guess.
This is too much man. Fan's rating Vs Critics Rating!
I haven't watched JTHJ so will wait before I comment on them. However the latter two are no that great. Period
Why don't you give the overall rating instead of Screenplay and Story Rating separate.
Sure please.
Maybe.
bcoz of SRK in both movies...
Ya VFX was good but failed to make an impact on audience...plot was poor
Even though I'm not a fan of either Salman Khan or Shahrukh Khan I would rather prefer Ek Tha Tiger over RA. ONE any day. However I also would agree with you that yes SRK did give it a try with RA. One. He tried something different true. Appreciate the effort. But it wasn't great.
^+100 to this
Absolutely agree
Yep
Really?
Overall I generally like Rhitwick's recommendations etc but SRK Movies all of them well....

Got it. I find the poster itself, funny!
Ra one lacked
1.Logic.(very very poor use of logic.would prefer Ek tha tiger any day over it)
2.Worst screenplay.
3.Some over acting.
4.Poor story.
Even ra one has only two songs which are good.Both sung by akon,
Where as ek tha tiger has more than two good songs.All of them sung by desi singers.Ek tha tiger wins.

Movie was funny as well but not that funny! Sad to see an actor like Ajay Devgn doing these kind of Mindless Comedy.

So, only two aspects of the movie which you did not like.
Chammak Challo
Dildara
Criminal
(My fav) Bhare Naina
Music of 'Raftaarein'
And background score titled "I'm on"
There is hardly any song that is good in "Ek tha tiger". "Agent Vinod" which falls in same category as 'ETT' had some really catchy tune.
If it were any run-of-the mill movie showing repetitive subject I would have never brought "effort" question here.
In an interview he told, though "Ra.One" had made significant profit he was scared of the kind of criticism that movie received. He also told that he had no idea if Ra.One would ever have a sequel but he would lave to make one.
I would love to see a sequel. I'm a fanboy, its my duty but irrespective of that he already knows his faults from Ra.One and hopefully they would be fixed in sequel.
Aren't these three things are same?
'Some' is better than trash acting which everyone (including people who has never seen an SRK movie) complains about SRK and his movies.

Well, I wrote what I felt and wrote a huge review to justify that. Read it if you want.
Point of view...again.
Will you take part in it?
Dude, he tried. Learn to appreciate efforts.

I don't know why few people do not like him and bash him so bad. May be its fashion now to hate SRK!
This should apply to every movies, actually to every person and every work out there. So there are no bad movies, no bad actors, no bad politicians, nothing's bad in the earth actually. All are 10/10 material. it's our point of view which makes us think something else. Everyone's making an effort.

Sorry no intention to insult you.But you made me confuse too thats why i searched again.They are not completely similar.
Logic:- A system of reasoning
screen·play :- The script for a movie, including descriptions of scenes and some camera directions.
story :- An account or recital of an event or a series of events, either true or fictitious
If you apply logic in every movie then more than 70% of the movies will be meaningless.
If a movie has a good story and a bad screenplay then chances of its failing are high.But if it has a bad story with some awesome screenplay then the chances of its failing are less.There are many examples i think you know them better than me.
Btw people hate srk because he sometimes overacts too much even in real life too.I hate him because he enjoyed my anushka in two movies completely.i will never forgive him and that btch.

Must watch.Completely entertaining and a good movie.shirish kunder atlast applied some brain.
