Teen patti(malayalam) looks also like Aankhen part II :banghead:
Teen patti-la madhavan villain role-baa.....sema weight-a irukkum :)
Aaal izz welll ... 4th week into running and the movie is still full during the weekends. Surprised to see a gang of localites who have come to watch it.
Overall a great "feel good " film and I love it. The voice over wits of Maddy during some emotional scenes are more like the ones of JD from Scrubs. But he was cool and has done his part in a best way and I really dont agree to some guys here saying that Maddy didnt have the meat-est of the role. Voice over-ing the entire film itself is a great honour for Maddy.
For Aamir Khan - I am waiting for this year's christmas ..
grain :lol: .......i love the film, infact i found lot more detailing in this movie than raam or paruthiveeran of Ameer's movies...... :)Quote:

Any Bollywood plans?
Selva Raghavan: Yes, I have signed a film with UTV. It will be on the floors soon.
Maddy, seekiramA 6 p age Ottittu adutha thread aarambinga.
From the interview Maddy linked to:
Was kinda guessing against all odds that this wouldn't be the case. Not because I didn't like this film, but because the end note seemed to suggest a 'cycle.'Quote:
The movie is well poised for a sequel; will you make one?
Selva Raghavan: Definitely, without doubt.
Despite Selva's answer, the "we" here is crucial. It'd be fair to suggest that Selva would have also related it to Eelam, the same way as most of the audience did. While it's true that the sort of war crimes shown in the film aren't exclusive to Eelam, the point is it is without doubt the 'closest' of the issues that make the Tamil audience relate to the scene in the first place.Quote:
I know you would deny it; but it is absolutely apparent that the movie has an Eelam Subtext and many reviews have written about it as well.
Selva Raghavan: No, absolutely not. Such things are not exclusive to Eelam isn’t it? Even people in Serbia were victims to such inhuman acts shown in the film. We are deeply affected by such issues. So, it’s pretty obvious people relate to it. But, my intention was not to refer Eelam.
sari, padaththula (Ayiraththil oruvan) appadi enna Hollywood inspiration? Haven't watched many Hollywood fantasy/adventure films myself, adhAn kEkkuREn.
Equa, have u written a review for AO??
i'm unable to place a finger over the exact reason why i found it underwhelming.........he used convenient cliches is one point but other than that?
from the same link:
i think this is how all the current gen tamil directors think......they are a bit insecure abt the "suggestive" way of filmmaking and are very explicit to garner attention......i would put Bala also in this.......Mysskin is a welcome difference to this trendQuote:
It’s just that I want to convey issues in a powerful way. It’s just my way of making sure the audience talk about it.
the scene where a sound splits their ear-drums and they go bersek before interval is already told in "indiana jones and crystal skull" - but thats not a big deal........en frnds neraya sonnanga - nyabagam illaQuote:

Small movies and unknown surprisesnA, the following few surprised me by being better than I thought they'll be
Pinjar - I have a weaknes for partition dramas unless it is of the gadar type. Manoj Bajpai was one of the reasons ofcourse but urmila surrprised me here
Haasil - actually it is quite famous as up politics movie
Waisa bhi hota hai 2 - I think there is no WBHH1 but they named it part 2 - the film lives up to that zaniness.
Sehar
Ah! There seems to be a pattern there - I can't place my fingers on it though!
I see few Hindi movies, still most of those were popular ones and also listing is an interesting exercise :-)
However, you probably would have seen these all, AF :
lagAn (2001)
rang de basanthi (2006)
chak de India (2007)
cheeni kum (2007)
Munnabhai MBBS (2003)
black (2005)
:cool2: theres one more thing we agree on......part of the reason i liked it was because i was getting tired of mumbai-noir genre movies and this was a welcome relief :lol: ......vaare wah, this goes to show there are lot of "above-average" movies in this decade.....Quote:

Astitva - pretty good characterisation and ferfarmnses
Split wide open - first hard hiting arty movie i have seen in my life other than the malayalam ones during sunday DD1 days
2001
Dil chahta hai - mid summer south-mumbai dream, to me this is the first Multiplex movie of India (i mean the content)
Lagaan - avid fan of sports movies can never miss this movie...had a pretty big canvas of characters and believable knots and situations...
Zubeidaa - Rahman and Benegal. period
2002
Bend it like beckham - absolutely beautiful movie - oru ponnoda manasu etc, friction & frndship between races, generation gap between NRI parents and NRI kids.......
Company - path breaker to mumbai underworld genre in the sense it started making movies on live examples......Ramu without Anurag - a big test for the former....
mr. and mrs.iyer - ISI mark art movie :lol:
2003
3 deewarein - gripping movie
Munnabhai - hats off hirani
Paanch - Enter the man - Anurag
Raghu Romeo - Rajat Kapoor's version of Guna, ofcourse not a patch on Guna
Waisa Bhi Hota Hai Part II - very good entertainer and has a beautiful subtext of mocking then existed mumbai-underworld movies
2004
Maqbool - macbeth masterpiece
Socha na tha - Imtiaz's mouth watering debut which held a great promise to bollywood's future
Swades - my most personal film of the decade
2005
Black Friday - devastating piece of cinema by Anuragji
Iqbal - another sports movie which has a pretty strong cricket selection related political commentary as well
2006
Ahista Ahista - soft tale of love and lost love......
Don - a remake which had its own brain
Khosla ka ghosla- the point where bollywood took off from other industries and left others far behind
Omkara - othello refabricated into a mindblowing piece
Rang De Basanti - cult movie of the decade
Mixed doubles - Rajat kapoor strikes gold in this category
2007
Chak de India - another sports movie i loved
Cheeni kum - beautiful simple movie and ofcourse raaja sir
Jab we met - jab bhi Imtiaz makes movies, i love it....the most enjoyable dialogues that u would ever come across...
Johnny Gaddar - multi-threaded, multi-sequence thriller of our generation
Manorama six feet under - detective movie with uneasy noir subtext
No smoking - a bizzaire journey into ANurag's surreal world
Taare zameen par - poem
2008
Aamir - scariest film i have ever seen......the real life danger of jehad thumping on the face
A wedensday - crisp action masla movie on a common man
Oye lucky lucky oye - abstract movie on a thief - very different feel
Jaane tu ya jaane na - brilliant movie with brilliant cast, dialogues, characterisations and great music...
Mitya - beautiful movie with great variations in tone and emotions.....
2009
DevD - if tarantino makes a love story, this is how it would be,
Gulaal - brilliant movie on student politics which goes in all possible directions that a human mind can take
Kaminey - why werent all our masala movies made like this all these 80 yrs?
Thanks Maddy. I haven't seen many films in this. That is some crisp intro about each and every film. I have bookmarked this page now.
i have missed out a host of glaring obvious ones(which i cant recollect now) and host of shabana azmi, konkana sen, ragul bose small movies with hindo-english titles.......honestly there are lots of them :lol:
:lol2:Quote:

adhu romba obvious-nu sollalai. I thought Kaminey, DevD, this etc were quite obvious choices...even Omkara. Somehow I was under the impresion that we were discussing lesser known ones.Quote:

"No smoking" is AK being facilitator of interpretations. To help against IF, the man had written about his intention, certain hints and key to crack the philum. :wink:
and Black friday is a documentary - if i remember correctly, raging bull pace-la irukkum screenplay...
(i meant, i dont remember raging bull so well)
