Why? Why me? Why this movie has been made? Why I went to see it? Why Akshay Kumar signed it? Why Priyadarshan made it? .......... Non effective pile of jokes .......... waste of time ........ Don't know what to rate or write. ...... Sorry.

Hot Tub Time Machine
John Cusack has given some treat to his male fans, but this is not a family comedy. It has some good shots but not like "Hangover". Still cool movie to hangout with friends, girls: "no offense" ;).

Movie 2010
Raajneeti
Loved it. Simply loved it. Best movie of 2010 so far. Very good story line, plot and superb casting. Lived up-to my expectations. Initially movie has some pace, which I think is appropriate and needed when you have big story to unfold in 2 and half hours. Movie length is pretty much ok, but looks bit long as there are no songs, ;). and so far we all are habituate to it. Ajay Devgan, Nana Pateker, Manoj Bajpai, Arjun Rampal, Katrina Kaif and yes some one who really knows how to act now Ranbir Kapoor ;). I can write some pages on the performance of each but better to leave it on you. Politics at its best and worst. The original face of politics and the bad boys or babus. It more looked like they have confined them selves not to expose more, else it could have been more bloodier and might have used more slang. Well ,but thats good else there would be less audience. Very good movie. A Must Watch !!!

Movie 2010
Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time
I have played the game when I was 14, and was my first video game on PC. It amazed me so much at that time and that thirst to go to next level was always there. Well, now they have made a movie and I was waiting for it like anything. And it did well to my expectation. Casting is great and so as the acting. Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton are perfect choice and Ben Kingsley is at his best as always. I like all fight scenes which give more realistic feel in times of extensive use of CG in movies. It has all the jumping and running which we did in the game and fighting and opening doors. Good movie. Surely, a must watch one timer.

Iron Man 2
After a long time something good to write about from Hollywood for Action movie and a Sci-fi.
Robert Downey Jr.has done it again and the chemestry between him and Gwyneth Paltrow is getting better and better. But i won't forget to mention Scarlett Johansson with her gorgeous and athletic look. She has made quite and impact on the film. Loved holographic projections, wonder when they will be real? There were some moments though which were not that necessary to be put, as audience is expecting more action then previous one. More day fight scenes might have given what was expected. Not as good as the first one, but a must watch.

Clash Of The Titans
Nope, not impressed much. It more felt like it looked ok because I saw it in 3D. Storyline is obviously not new, director doesn't had much chance to play other then FX or add good casting to movie. Well, casting is ok and so as the FX, it more felt like meaning less fights going on. Characters disappear form screen very quickly, they die before you start to like them. Go to have 3D experience.

The Book Of Eli
It started with the punch and ended the same way. Great effects and does not look unrealistic. It fits the scenes well. Some gore is there, but you have already seen it in 300 and it is delivered in same way over here, but less in quantity !!. Storyline is simply superb and Denzel Washington has delivered it very well and so as Mila Kunis. Casting is superb. It's nuclear fallout environment is made very realistic and in-detail. I am impressed with the wardrobes and yeah some details in it too. I won't tell about the storyline. A Must Watch Movie.

Let me tell you one thing, Bollywood is going good on Horrors. They have not mastered it but yes, they have improved a lot. No gore scenes, no vulgar scenes, good cast and good acting. Aditya has done job well and so as Shweta. Suspense is not much but the experience is thrilling. I like the ride, after 1920, this is second one I recommend for all those horror fans out there. And yah, don't miss some interesting romantic moments in it :). Good watch.

George Clooney is simply great in the movie. Movie is off-beat but is right on the subject its targeted on. This is about America's current scenario and it touches to the life of millions. Casting is done pretty good and so as the story line. Movie has some of its own surprises and it shows the reality of daily life. Must watch for serious movie goers.

Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge
Oh boy, disaster strikes back. I was mood-less when I went for this movie and when I came out I felt that situation was better when I was outside (Actually that feeling started from interval). There are hardly few scenes which might make you think to laugh (You laugh or not is up to you) but I did not. Casting is poorly done and so as the script and story lineup. Not advisable to watch. (Again: best enjoyment for new born couples)

karthik calling karthik
The beginning is good and so as somewhat the middle part, but the end is horrible and I really can not stand it. From the beginning I was having a feeling that director is digging a deep, very deep grave, and at last he falls in it. The only learning I got from this movie is our government is right, don't use Chinese phones. Good Movie though, but if you have missed it, no need to book specially. Watching on small screen is advisable with obviously less expanse.

Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief
I am not big fan of harry potter neither I have read many books and this is another with same test. But as I am human and I can see and hear things and as we have invented cinema, rest of the things humanity should leave on me, like reviews. I don't know what happens in the book, but it is surely not happening in the movie. It is lengthy and misses the action or adventure. Fights are small and quick and F/X is ok....

I have seen shutter and so far this movie is not that impressive though. There where some scenes in shutter which were good and there is one scene in this movie which will really put you on edge of your seat. Somehow the movie lack the grip and many twist and turns shows that the story is been bundled together as the movie progresses. Once you know who is all behind the scary things you will get scare of director, that how could he even think about something, or is the need for horror was so much that you convert anyone in ghost. Not scary at all. Horror lovers its surely not for you. Boys who has new or fresh girlfriends, please enjoy the loneliness ;)

Toh Baat Pakki
Comic family movie. This movie hangs on Tabbu, else nothing is there which is so funny about. Still it more feels like comedy is made to be fit it and somehow looses its flow. Story line is not that different and end is even messed-up. Ok movie, some may like it some may not. Timepass movie in an Indian words.

My Name Is Khan
Let me guess, we all might be waiting for its release after a controversial 2 weeks and upstanding of SRK by withholding his statement and not bowing down to politics. It seems people admire that more before even the film released. And the matter of fact is movies is based on the same theme. I somehow got the tickets (I always get it....ok) and watched it in last show.
Let me be very frank, it is not astonishing or mind blowing. It is a simple movie about one Muslim and struggle of him and his family to fight back and regain their respect post 9 /11. And the message is delivered very loud and clear. This time SRK and Kajol didn't have much time to give it to love but what ever time they got, they did remind that they are still the best and most happening couple on-screen. Some of the scenes in the movie represents his real life day to day activities...I leave it for your guess. Surely a one time watcher. I give rating for SRK and Kajol's acting and movie theme.

Sherlock Holmes (2009)
I was waiting for the release since I heard about it last year. It took some time to release it in India, but it was worth to wait for it and not to see on small screen. So far it is one of the best movie I have seen in 2010 in regard to the script and delivery. Now in the days of Harrypotter (Indian Hari Putter), this is what today's parents should actually make their child read (Read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherlock_Holmes). Caz there is no magic, its science....pure science. And you do have to use your brain to get around this one. Good movie.

This reminds me of "Sarkar" and I think it will make you think of the same. Plot is different but Cinematography and theme is based of what we have seen and appreciated so far from one of the best movies Ramu has given to this country. But I must say this is one good movie. Media has been red labeled and cornered for the way they are representing current political and social scenario.
This film will bring some info to public on how the news has been created and represented. It shows the corporate point of view on the current broadcast industry. I rate this for its story line and touch and a message for citizen of this country.

Rated A, this is one hell of a movie showing the complexity of relations and human behavior which some times turn out to be surprising (May be most of the times). I never knew there can be an innovation in the bad words or for to sack some one. Vidya balan has given ground breaking performance and has shown her capabilities as and off-bit actress. Arshad Warsi wins heart of the audience by his exceptional expressions and dialogs. Must watch to add rough patch on this all easy going fairy tales. Ratings for best screen play and plot.

Paranormal Activity (2009)
IMDB
I have no idea, whether this movie had launched in Ahmadabad or not but I think the city might have missed it. This is a $11K movie and has proved that you can scare people with that budget. No gore, no blood vomiting faces and not slicing of humans, and still it gets your nerve. You sit and not getup until you realize its over.I got good reviews about it and yes, the reviews are right. It might be a low budget movie but it has made its way in one of the interesting horrors I have seen without any gore or expensive FX. I give it raiting for its grip and originality.

Veer (2010)
With New face in Bolly, Zarine would not have got better role. Stage was set for the performance and so far her performance looks ok but the movie came disaster. an epic movie with so little to enjoy for. Audience has to find their enjoyment and some scenes gave repeating effect. Salman has a flop again and looks his lady luck is not working. Nothing much to say, see at your own risk. I give quality ratings to wardrobe and cinematography.

Zombieland (2009)
Emma Stone rocks :) and so does Woody Harrelson , Movie is gore (Well it contains word "Zombie" so it has to be) but still finds its way to the entertaining comedy-Horror genre.Movie is with the same theme of people caught by virus which converts them to blood sucking monsters and remaining try to eliminate them. I liked the rules shown in the movie and some of them applies to real world too :). The only thing remaining in real world is we don't need zombies to mess-up things.
