Bolo Raam: Wish he had spoken something better in the Climax
This is the last films for the year 2009 and what we got again is an interesting concept gone waste due to poor direction and unconvincing acting. The Movie is based on Tamil Movie Raam, which released in 2005. Had the director released it at some other time to protect it from 3 idiots hurricane, it would...

Movies from Bollywood in 2009 – A Review
This has been a disappointing year for Bollywood with a whopping loss of 700 crores.

Although, there were a few movies which are worth a watch but most of the big...

Salesman of the Year is a great Pitch-ure. Rocket Singh is decent.

Salesman of the Year is a great Pitch-ure. Rocket Singh is decent.
Rocket Singh is yet another brilliant movie after Chak de from the Writer-Director Combo of Jaideep Sahni and Shimit Amin. Rocket Singh is a zero-to-hero story of an idealistic corporate futcha, who rather than getting lured to the glitters of corporate world by working against his value system decides to...

Paa – Sure to touch every heart in a light-hearted Way

Paa – Sure to touch every heart in a light-hearted Way

De Dana Dan brings back the quartet of Hera Pheri – Priyadarshan, Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty and Paresh Rawal, but unlike Hera pheri, which had a nice script backed up by some excellent situational comedy, this movie is purely a slapstick comedy, which is not only loud but a no-brainer as well. In...

Do Knot Disturb – Enter At Your Own Risk

Do Knot Disturb – Enter At Your Own Risk
With Do Knot Disturb, David Dhawan gives us another comedy on extra marital affair. Some of his previous works on the same subject are Saajan Chale Sasural, Gharwali Baharwali and Biwi Number 1. So he took cues from all of them and made Do Knot Disturb. This movie has a wafer thin plot, just like any other...
