Bridget Jones's Baby (Movie Rating:5/10)

Bridget Jones's Baby (Movie Rating: 5/10)

Hilarious and preposterous simultaneously... Absolutely British in humour, dialogues, locales and mumbo-jumbo. 

Hugh Grant is conveniently declared dead in the opening credits, leaving Renee to possibly betrothal with Mr D'Arcy... A wild party and enter Colin Firth as the first impregnator.... 

...preposterous because no man, however Brit.. would hold a full 9 months to poly-amory... 

Renee Z, waddles her signature gait and transforms silly to magnetic in a jiffy...gifted, talented and expressive.. 

...

The humour is very british, so not recommended for Desi Bollywood lovers.. 

For BJ diary fans... Sine Qua Non 

The Magnificent Seven (Movie 🎥 rating: 6.5 /10)

The Magnificent Seven (Movie  rating: 6.5 /10)

Spaghetti Western Classic, with all the trappings of 17th century Wild West America...storyline same as original Yule Brynner movie.
...
Denzel W, ChrisPratt, Ethan Hawke are marvellous... others are equally convincing in their roles... Peter Skarsgård as the Bad guy is really baaad...
...
Gun fights, horses, whorehouses, saloons, belfry, red-Indian mohawks, Winchester rifles....coyotes... it's all in there... Your James Green 'Sudden' fantasy coming true...
...
Ride out to the hall in your breeches, sniff them cow-boys, chewing cigars and blowing up a goddamit Gatling...

Banjo (Movie Rating:4.5/10)

Banjo (Movie Rating:4.5/10)

Aargh!  Jimmy Hendrix is passe, so is Elvis and the BeeGees... if this mumbai local rustic rousal with its quarter tones be the hallmark... 

...

Overload of Ganapati, lazium and local mumbaikars.  What's touching is the actual travails of the common mumbaikar, struggling for basic amenities, water and potty...and food. 

...

Nargis Faakhri in her negligee avatar,  alabaster complexion, a midriff divine with zero Acting skills...beestung lips and the uncanny holding the mike close to her mouth a.k.a freudian symbolism... Wonder if the director deliberately played up this unstated fantasy...

...

Apart from the Mumbai-Bappa overload, the pace is quite 'quick', the friends brawls realistic and the bad guy turned good routine convincing... 

...

Enter the hall at your own risk...Am quite sure, Lord Ganesh won't have asked to part of *Disco-Chawl-Rustic-Boor*  music competitive dynamics. 

...

Party Dresses of Nargis F are notice worthy, especially when contrasted on Dharavi...masterstroke. 

...

Don't go.. Don't go.. Don't go

Raaz Reboot(Movie Rating: 3.5/10)

Raaz Reboot(Movie Rating: 3.5/10)

Kriti Kharbanda, the demure wife of a banker in myriad shades of girlfriend, lover, wife, ghost, negligee model and a Hindu modelled exorcism... 

Gaurav is good looking... Period. Emraan *chumma-chaati* hams his lines with the usual liplock onomatoepia... 

..

Copied events and scenes from conjuring, exorcism of emily..., evil dead... It's too obvious.. Bhatts have become boring.. 

Romania, the land of Count Dracula, is beautiful, the locale the architecture and furniture... It's beautiful... 

...

You got some beans at home that don't cook... Take em to the movie... They'll be ready to go 

Pink (Movie Rating: 6.0/10)

Pink (Movie Rating: 6.0/10)

As a movie, very serious screenplay with earthy dialogues and only Amitabh Bacchan could make a commercial movie out of an otherwise documentary. 

....

Courtroom drama 🎩 is electric, not because of the subject, but because Mr AB Baby decimates his opposition with gentle tones and sometimes ripping asunder the corrupt Police authority. His demeanour vindicates the foolhardy women...

..

Tapsee Pannu is irritating at best with her smug cock-a-snook at the antagonist...and this time the antagonist is educated, versed, London returned Ugly-mug...

It's the prosecution lawyer role which is delicious to the point of indigestion, which when our Hero, AB rips apart becomes cathartic. 

...

The moral lecturing is a drag, though a must for our Feudal Lords (Tehmina Durrani)...whilst the scrip leaves few details undetailed. 

...

Supporting actress, Kirti Kulhaari is convincing in her shades of grey role.. 

...

Social message movie 🎥 

Sully (Movie Rating:6.5/10)

Sully (Movie Rating: 6.5 /10)

Twin engine failure on Airbus A320 with Capt Sullenberger at the helm.... an ex USAF pilot, Master Green on the F4je Phantom... one helluva flying ✈ machine 

With only a 35 second window to decide on what bearing to head... the choice of a water landing is pounding. Tom Hanks is every bit realistic in his role as the saviour pilot. The pre landing emotional highs, the supporting services of air traffic control, river rescue teams all seemed very apt... 

Clint Eastwood makes you walk out of the theatre feeling you were the pax on board and were saved...

.......Go get saved

Baar Baar Dekho (Movie Rating:4.5/10)

Baar Baar Dekho (Movie Rating: 4.5/10)

Live, Die, Repeat + Back to the Future + 13-going-on-30 + two very attractive *don't-know-how-to-act* actors, SidM & Katrina and your stage is set... for a futuristic love story. Leitmotif - A run through different ages of life, a chance to reset his follies and win back his love.

Drag with a documentary approach... 

....

The only reason for watching this would be for girls, a swoon over  handsome to the T - Sid.. and for guys, the gal to die for... Kat, with her 13 inch waist and looks to leave you besotted, fine chiseled legs and a disarming smile, putting that African Hex on you... 

....

Verdict - terrible movie, gorgeous looking lead pair, dresses of Kat to die for 

Don't Breathe (Movie Rating:5/10)

Don't Breathe (Movie Rating: 5/10)

Edge of the seat drama, unfolding with blood, gore, killing, guns, machetes, knives, sadistic hand-leg-torso confinement of a girl into pregnancy ...name the Marquis de Sade technique and its in this cellar...

The story is but obvious...its the treatment which sets is apart. Have you seen 'Wait until Dark'...well the protagonist blind girl is replaced by the antagonist blind man...and the hunters shalt find themselves hunted...

Go watch this for a macabre element in your genes...
