Pyaar Ka Punchnaama
A must watch for all men. Dont ever miss it.
Shaitan - Too much style spoils whatever little substance it has. Aaranya Kaandam vera level :2thumbsup:
Nerd, if you haven't already, you need to check out the 1985 Kannada movie ‘Accident’ by Shankar Nag (the guy who brought Malgudi Days to screen, for starters). His masterly direction and Raasa’s awesome score (no songs) makes this movie well ahead of its time (has its share of flaws, but still makes a gripping watch). ‘Dai, naanga idha 80s layE paathaachu da’ was the feeling I had when I watched Shaitan. Not that it’s a bad film, makes a solid start, very slick and enjoyable, but then fizzes out after the phony abduction; the Kashyapar syndrome, if one may call it so. But, Gulshan Deviah (KC, in this movie) and Kalki - koot tAlends - awesome performance in Manja boots too.
Thanks bro. Will hunt for the DVD/DVDRip/Youtube :-)
Double Dhamaal.
Falters when the four dimwits started maru-vEsham thing. Sanjay Dutt cannot make up his mind whether to play it straight, or to be goofy with them. An okay entertainer with few laughs here and there. Mallika Shrawat was totally unnecessary.
I have a confession. I like DeewaanE Hue paagal.
It is a sad adaptation of There's something about Mary.
That too I like the Madarasi mockery in it.
There is one guy, Om Puri's son, who is a Punjabi but -for no reason whatsoever - adopts a South Indian identity.
He watches South Indian films, grows a moustache and speaks a pidgin Madaraasi Hindi.
The whole thing is rife with the the Bollywood prejudiced Madarasi depiction, but it is so so over-the top that I found it funny.
And Om Puri's punjabi-ness versus his son causes many moments
Om Puri: Oi...subramaniam ke aulaadh :lol:
Om Puri: abEy...medhu vadA
Son sees his dream girl (Rimi Sen) on TV and screams happily (he's snacking as he watches TV)
OP: abEy ...kyA hua...mangwaa thO dhiyA tErE idli aur saambaar
And the guy calls OP 'appA' and his brother aNNai (அண்ணை)
Finally he locates Rimi Sen in Dubai and calls OP to tell him
Son: appA...GuruvaayurappaNdE...aa pENkutti kitti appA :rotfl:
And when kidnapping her he talks to her in a language which is Hindi ruined completely by using words and intonation which are Tamil (i.e. what bollywood would consider Tamil). She gets frustrated at one point and bursts out: kyA bakwaaz hain ye :lol:
It is a reasonably funny movie apart from this
Akshay Kumar and Vijay Raaz are trailing Sunil Shetty - who pretends to be handicapped.
At one point in the chase, SS throws his crutches at them and runs (first time we too know that he is not handicapped).
A moment of surprise and then
Vijay Raaza: bhaai yeh andhaa nahin hai :rotfl2:
Akshay: abE...andhaa thoo hai...
Climoks chase
Johnny Lever trailing the villain's car and talking over phone to Akshay Kumar - who's driving another car- passing on instructions. The car has Sunil Shetty, Vijay Raaz, Paresh Rawal - who are all on their own track.
Johnny Lever: Mc Donalds-se left liyE us caar nE, Mc Donalds sE left lE
Akshay: (relaying it and trying to stay on top of the chaos)
Paresh Rawal: yahaan McDonalds nahin hai...wo dheek KFC hain...KFC chalEgA? :lol:
