Love Aaj Kal (2009)

Genre: Romantic
Director Imtiaz Ali's Third Movie Love Aaj Kal is more of SEX than LOVE. So i wud love to c the name as SEX aaj Kal. Saif as Jai Singh is looking forward to design a Bridge in US, but currently he is workin on a firm in LONDON. Deepika as Meera Pandit is a Archaeologist who is into rebuilding old Painted walls and looks forward to fix up all the Artistic painted walls in India. Ali tries to fasten the things up in the Relationship between Jai n Meera by showin some Kissing scenes and some Percepts as how their relationship went on for 3 yrs as a Committed relationship. Both being Career Oriented , Meera Moves to India. The Seperation was pretty hard than expected. Rishi Kapoor who runs a Coffee Store in UK, tells abt his Younger days to Jai. In the Movie , Younger Rishi is shown as Saif himself paired opposite Debut Model Giselle Monteiro.Things Get Worsened, when Meera gets Married to her Colleague played by Rahul Khanna. Saif tries to do things that Rishi did in his Past and tries to become like him. The problem With Love Aaj Kal is it has taken a pretty cut short way. In Indian Tradition usually there are relatives ,family,etc. Bt this one has nothin present. Plot is Different and Fresh but still it fails to make a long lasting impression on the Viewers. Bt what stands out in this movie is Saif's Amazing Acting skills. He fits properly in the SARDAR attire and also the scenes where he feels the Pain in his Gut when he is missing Meera. Produced by himself, Love aaj Kal is not a Boring Watch. But if u lookin out for Decent Universal Romantic movie , this aint the one. Its one of the Hits of yr 2009. So GRAB it Right away.
Worth Watching ONCE

Kurbaan (2009)


Genre: Thriller / Crime
Director Rensil D'silva makes a confident debut with a film that is both respectable and engaging.The 3 Main Leads Contribute a Overwhelming performances which stand out in the whole movie. Kareena Kapoor as Avantika and Saif as Ehsaan are Professors in a Delhi University.Things Fasten up, as both of them fall in love and then they move to New York where they r married.Kareena returns back to her old job as a teaching staff and try getting a post for Ehsaan to work in the same Univ. The couple moves towards a Indian Neighbourhood where they find Muslim Family.Kareena gets a shock when she finds out that Saif is involved in a Terrorist Group and is also planning to blow away the New York SubWay. To Seek help, she finds out Vivek oberoi as Riyaz who gets involved with the group in order to foil their plan.
A Movie Similar to New York which was also Released this yr, Kurbaan offers the Same back drop of Global Terrorism.The Best point is, the Screenplay and the Direction both are kept at par with complete Pace and sensibility. Tinch of Thrilling scenes keeps u hold at the edge of the seat.There are many instances where the movie fails. One Scene where a Routine check goes on and in the Midst of Shootout Saif shoots down all Cops n Elopes from the Scene. Saif being one of the Global Terrorist , is openly running down the Streets and bar where he kills one of his Ally. Post 9/11 effects has too much impact on the Fellow US Citizens as not even a small matter of doubt is not spared, but our lead role tend to surpass all the Security stuff easily. Not Much of a Great Chemistry Seen between Saif n Kareena as expected, other than a Seductive song where in Kareena tries to lay her hands on the Action plan for bombings. Kurbaan is not a Great Movie ,though you can predict what the ending will turn out to be.It is a Amazing thriller Movie. Superb Background Scores by Salim -Sulaiman. Rensil's 1st movie is Worth a Watch.

2012(2009)


Genre: Action
When i first saw the trailer of 2012 , only one thing remained in my mind, the Director Roland Emmerich who has shown his talents in Independance Day, Godzilla and much more. The Number of Views in Youtube for this Movie Trailer has raised to Sky high. 2012 is the mother of all disaster movies ever made in the History of Entertainment. First Few mins are spent in Scientists and Physics Stuff as in what is goin on. Along comes the Personal Story of John Cusack, who plays Jackson Curtis, a divorced, failed novelist-turned-limo driver who must protect his kids and his Wife . The one WORD what this film will show is we all are getting Baked in 2012.Eiffel Tower and the Chapel to the White House and the Washington Monument is smashed and shattered, or simply swept up by giant tsunamis. High-rise buildings tumble like packs of cards, and bridges and freeways collapse down the middle. Breath taking scenes as plane goin along the runway and the Ground starts breaking. The BEST scene comes when we see the Huge GIANT ship topples and the "JOHN F KENNEDY " Tag just shows off that how rich the Scene could be. There is nothin remaining that Emerich has not covered in the Movie.
At The end of the day the movie is a complete Destruction which might lead u to a Head ache. This is a complete Package. Its got Emotions, Humour n a Big PArt to cover up is DISASTER all around. To Save the Human race from extinction , an Ark is created by the Chinese due to huge funding of Rich ppl around the World. This is not the BEST Movie of the year, but this is surely an Entertaining one. BOTTOM LINE : The movie gives you your money's worth. 2hr 40 mins Does make u bit drowsy, but Roland sees to it that his viewers will get a Swift ending of the Planet Earth after the DISASTER
Welll, so many Action movies this yr. A blend of everythin. We have D-9 , 2012 and the MOST AWAITED "AVATAR". The Costliest Movie with Extreme Graphics . Directed by JAMES CAMERON (TITANIC). Hold ur Breath to Catch the Awaited Movie in Dec.

RATING: 3/5- GOOD

This Is It (2009)

Genre: Documentary
"This Is it," Michael JAckson told his fans in London, announcing his forthcoming concert tour. "This is the final curtain call." The curtain fell sooner than expected. What is left is this extraordinary documentary, nothing at all like what I was expecting to see. Here is not a sick and drugged man forcing himself through grueling rehearsals, but a spirit embodied by music. Michael JAckson was something else.
Never raising his voice, never showing anger, always soft-spoken and courteous to his cast and crew, Michael with his director, Kenny Ortega, micro-manages the production. He corrects timing, refines cues, talks about details of music and dance. Seeing him always from a distance, I thought of him as the instrument of his producing operation. His audience in this case consists entirely of stagehands, gaffers, technicians, and so on. These are working people who have seen it all. They love him. They're not pretending. They love him for his music, and perhaps even more for his attitude. Big stars in rehearsal are not infrequently pains in the ass. Michael plunges in with the spirit of a co-worker, prepared to do the job and go the distance.
Well, we don't know how he did it. "This Is It" is proof that he did do it. He didn't let down his investors and colleagues. He was fully prepared for his opening night. He and Kenny Ortega, who also directed this film, were at the top of their game. There's a moving scene on the last day of rehearsal when Jackson and Ortega join hands in a circle with all the others, and thank them. But the concert they worked so hard on was never to be.

This is it.

MUST WATCH FOR ALL MJ FANS.... May MJ RIP
