So ,I’m late to the party but I still made it, atleast (Right in time for the DVD release ,I guess).Inception was mind-blowing. The nine years it took to get the script perfected are totally justified. What an idea. What execution.And,what an actor.Dicaprio, you’ve come a long way from the love-sick chocolate boy that I [...]

The man,the near-legend
Predictably,its Enthiran mania everywhere.Rajini hysteria has reached such an extent that when I forwarded a few screenshots of the movie to a friend of mine,he told me that my life’s work was done I’ve always wondered what made Rajini click with the masses .Earlier,it was probably his acting skills.Later on,it was this style icon that [...]

VTV
I’ve finally figured out why this movie has had such extremely varying reviews.It should’ve been released with a disclaimer :- Strictly only for an audience that has ,at sometime,fallen in love. Even better if they’ve loved and lost . Prior to intermission,there were so many been-there-done-that moments. And so many scenes that had deja vu [...]

A New Year resolution ,anyone ?

UPO
Terrorism is instant.Why can’t justice be so ? What a movie ! Of course,I haven’t watched Wednesday yet.So ,without comparing the two,by itself,UPO was really good,Mohanlal’s malayali accent included. Spoilsport : After the movie was over,spouse had only this to ask.Why do the guys who make the bombs use wires of different colors ? I [...]

Stepmom
I watched Stepmom twice.I loved the movie.It was subtle yet powerful.A movie that didn’t end with a moral, a movie that didn’t potray the other woman as a vamp,or the husband as an infidel. No bucket loads of tears,no long tacky sentimental dialogues.It was beautiful.And ,now I dread to think what Karan Johar is going [...]

THE Movie Marathon
I know,I know.All I’ve been writing about for quite some time is movies.But when one has been away from something for a really long while and is suddenly given the chance to break that long break,one truly indulges oneself [ No prizes for counting the number of ones in that sentence.]. So finally,after 8 long [...]

LOL
From Madagascar 2 This is the captain of your plane speaking. I have good news and bad news. The good news is that we are landing immediately. The bad news is that we are crash landing.

Naan Kadavul
Whats the point ? Aham Brahmasmi [The Self is Supreme ?] Maranam Varam [ Death is a boon.Salvation from this wretched life.And,oh ,did they show wretched ! ] What are you still looking for ??Thats it. Halfway through the movie,spouse commented ” Ithu sariyaana pitchkaara padama irukkum polirukkey”.A little later,I said “Where’s the story,man ?”.At [...]
