I seem to be living in a time warp. I remember watching HKA much before Page 3. Did HKA release in 2005? Then it wins hands down. I can't remember any other recent movie that captured the angst of the youth against the political setup so well. Unfortunately actors like Kay Kay are relegated to playing second fiddle most of their career in Bollywood. It also made me think. Why don't we have more movies on life under emergency?!Quote:

Do both the movies share a similar idea?
Sanjinika, haven't seen RDB yet :( , so can't comment.
Caught up with 'Dweepa' by Kasaravalli this week. The movie tells the struggles of a woman who is torn between impractical views of her family members and the urgency to save them from the impending monsoon floods that are sure to submerge their village. The characters are minimal (most of the story revolves around the 4 central characters) and the BGM is amazing. In fact, such is the domination of flute and violin, that I could have sworn that the MD is Illayaraja. The credits show the MD as Isaac Thomas Kottukapally. Can someone throw more light on his works?
I was mighty pleased that the VCD came with subtitles. Stangely, this is the only Kasaravalli movie available in either VCD or DVD format. A sorry state of affairs considering that the his films have won four 'Swarna Kamal' awards (highest after Satyajit Ray).

But they mentioned it was tooo melodramatic and tooo long !! :oops: :cry: :oops:
I watched Darna Zaroori hai last weekend.Its a fun movie to wach.Not really scary like the ring or thereabouts but not explicit like few of the otherones(which really turn the fear factor into a joke).The concept is the exact same as Darna Mana hai.It was a novel concept then and now this one is not so new..but still I enjoyed the movie.
Each story has an entire new technical crew.Pretty unique actually.Bay if you wantto take your non desi friends to a movie,I suggest this one.Its not too long(just around 2 hrs)no songs and the stories are short.A good one from RGV factory :thumbsup:
Couple of people were recommending 'Anukokunda Oka Roju' a Telugu movie. Have any idea how it is ?
thriller...
If u need Good Indian Films
90% of mohanlal films should watch
70% of Kamal hasan films
and some old Hindi films of amithab,sanjeevkumar,shashikapoor,amolpalekar,rajk apoor & black&white devanand films :)
Mr & Mrs Iyer..
Bautiful love story..amazing cinematography..and some great acting!Rahul Bose is calm and collected as the wildlife photographer and KonKana Sen Sharma is very good as the young mother and wife.Though the crying baby does sometimes get on your nerves sometimes.Really a touching story! :thumbsup:
Godavari of Sumanth and Kamalinee Mukerjhee is very nice..
Heroine subjcet...
Bose- the forgotten hero
The Legend of Bhagath singh
Gandhi

Saw Being Cyrus a couple days ago. :thumbsup: It was good!
The movie had a mixed review :(Quote:

:?
Well,
The movie probably flopped because it's an english movie.
I thought it was good. I didn't see it in the theater, I only watch Hrithik Roshan movies in the theater, I saw this on DVD.
Cyrus (Saif Ali Khan) is a drifter, and he ends up @ Dimple Kabadia's House, who is married to Nasarutheen Shah.
I don't want to say too much, because the movie is a surprice all the way. But I'd recommend it. It was good I thought. 8-)
After a very very long time watched Saudagar yesterday :).I honestly cant say that the movie is a good one..but it was entertaining(of course I watched a DVD and could fwd the insipid parts-there are quite a few)Songs were a major hit I remember..quite a nostalgic trip for me.
Anyways, if you want to see a cute looking Manisha(dresses were atrocious ofcourse) and an ok looking vivek mushran and have a good laugh watch this one. :)
can anybody here suggest some good action films from tamil cinema?

Watched the telugu movie Athadu yesterday.Loved the movie.The action sequences were shot beautifully(though a lot of it was matrix style)slickly made and very stylish.Story is not exactly new..but I loved the way it was made.Out and out masala movie..but without the usual aaaahhh and aieeees.Mahesh babu fits the role of the strong and silent types to the T .I liked the fact that they could pull off potraying a strong,likeable hero without giving him too much humor or too many dialogues.I think Im a sucker for strong and silent types :P
ANY MOVIE WITH PRIYANKA CHOPRA IN IT
Watched KOKKI.Its a really good ,well made movie.A simple movie which runs only for an hour and 20 mins.Its about this villager who unfortunately catches the eye of a local big man.The man believes that KOKKI is lucky for him and wants to keep KOKKI with him for the next 7 years.The rest of the story is how KOKKI escapes the clutches of this guy.The amazing thing in this movie is there is no heroism in this story.Its true to life..and the reactions of kokki is also like that.Just because he is a hero,he doesnt suddenly become a superman and bash everyone.The movie is very real and there is no cinematic events/scenees in the movie.Truely a great effort!Hats of to the KOKKI Team :thumbsup:
