total timepass...

Where do I start about this movie? It was terrible and completely unwatchable! What has Shah Rukh done to himself? He has started looking like a lizard now! With his cheeks sunk in, a lean and mean look, a stupid pout on his face all the time and the completely random expressions he has throughout the movie. Where has the cute-looking Shah Rukh of DDLJ and KKHH gone? He looks and acts so painfully now! And then there was Priyanka Chopra trying so hard to be a cool no-nonsense cop, but she too fails. The whole character does not come out convincingly at all. It all looks so fake and made-up and adds to the pain in the movie. And then the story! Aah the story! What do we say about that? Loopholes everywhere! Such a big don works alone and has no one other than Lara to help him out. Really? This movie didn't really have to be called Don either, it could have been any other heist movie (Except that no one then would have gone to watch it!). There are just too many things happeni

Hindi movies have set my movie standards so low, that any movie that I don't feel like walking out of is considered good enough by me:). Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl is like that. I'd say its a nice movie. Not great but one in which you will laugh and enjoy: as they say, paisa vasool . (As an aside, so many movies now have Delhi in them, it always nice to watch. Even though the portrayal is always very stereotypical, it brings a smile to your face knowing that its so true and real. It all feels a lot more special if you are an NRI and become so nostalgic with anything Indian or from your city:) ) Anyways about the movie, first the pros: Its a fun movie. A today's movie. Fun and believable characters. From Delhi, Mumbai, Lucknow and Goa. Acting was fine. Ranveer and Anushka were their usual self. Its a breezy movie, flowing along. I guess that's all the pros.  Now the cons: The story has too many loopholes, it could have been more taut and edited better. A conman conning pe

Ewwww! I would like to forget that I ever saw this movie! Uggghhh!! Though have to give it to the producer, what a brilliant idea he had.. To portray a movie as a biography: It at least gets the masses to come and watch something which is nothing more than a vulgar blue film; which they wouldn't have seen otherwise. And I can't still believe how a mainstream actress agreed to do such a role either! And how did such a movie get to be categorized with the 'normal' movies we all see. Promos all over tv and everywhere. I am still in shock on what I saw! What was the movie about, I still haven't been able to figure out. Some depth, some story, some message, some entertainment? At least it should have had something somewhere? All it showed was the life of a dancing star who does all kinds of scenes and dances in movies and goes about her life in a reckless manner; regarding men, career and money. And I guess that's it. The rest was just all body show in a very vulga
