Dabangg 2 (2012)
Kamaal Karte Ho Pandey Ji..!!
Dabangg 2 (Movie Review)
ONE LINER:
Kamaal Karte Ho Pandey Ji..!!
EXPECTATIONS: Very less movies has such great expectations, After a success DABANGG , DABANGG2 could not go wrong. So High high high expectations..And the hype or craze of movie was mind blowing. Although I was feeling that this movie will be just a good one. Lets see what I found out.
VIEWS: 1. Firstly the movie comes full to the hype and expectations and am happy that my thinking became wrong. History is bound to be created with each single day as it a non holiday Movie. 2. Arbaaz Khan took the movie where it was left in first and he has taken it to a new level totally and has delivered what the team of DABANGG2 has promised it to be. 3. It's all and all Salman Khan in Dabangg 2. And that is the major plus of the movie like DABANGG or DABANNG2 .His Character CHULBUL PANDEY is just a evergreen character. 4. Relations have been shown beautifully. 5. Songs are not to the extent of first part but still they are awesome in the movie. 6. Start of the movie means starting credits are awesomely shown with dabangg glimpsed. The start of the movie is not very great but after 15 minutes or so the movie starts rising and it remains rised till the very end credits. And it's not a total comedy. Emotional and serious scenes are awesome. Few scenes are quite hilarious. 7. The is not a single moment where the pace drops or speed lac kens.. 8. Overall it's a great family movie with full top notch action, comedy, massy and all what a total ENTERTAINER should have..
STORY & SCRIPT: Story is very good. Not very new but written very nicely. Script is just superb. Screenplay is good. Dialogues are awesome.
DIRECTION: ARBAAZ KHAN as a debut director has made an awesome directional debut. Can be said his dream come true. Few scenes are so well executed that it makes clear that Arbaaz can give great direction. Specially emotional and serious scenes.
MUSIC: Music By Sajid Wajid is very good and suits the movie. And songs look great except the title song.. Title song is just good to see. Background score is awesome by name not remembered. By the way now SALMAN KHAN should try other composers. Choreography of songs is superb so as picturisation of songs is great.
CASTING & ACTING: SALMAN KHAN has given one of the finest performance of his career again as Chulbul Pandey. This character is meant to be made for Him. No one could had carried the role as he did.. His emotions, his comedy, his action is just awesome here. His one laughing accent is brilliant and hilarious. And here his dialogue deli every is great too.. And will want more Dabanggs to come due to Him SONAKSHI SINHA is good as much as she is there as wife of Chulbul. PRAKASH RAJ is good but in the same scheme in which he always act, same characters. Deepak Dobriyal is great and his another brother in movie is good too. Vinod Khanna is good. His scenes with Salman are awesome.. Arbaaz Khan is good. Mahie gill is OK. Tinnu anand hardly there. Others are good. Remaining side characters are great here too. Enjoyable. Kareena Kapoor in Fevicol se is great.. Lot of whistles and masses will die for it. Malaika Arora gives a glimpse in dance and is rocking.
PLUSSES & MINUSES:
PLUSSES: 1. The execution of the movie. 2. Action. 3. SALMAN KHAN. 5. Emotional and serious scenes. 6. Fun Movie. Few Scenes are total hilarious. 7. Scenes of Father son and scenes of husband wife. Relations shown beautifully. 8. Interval is just mind blowing. And a scene of pre climax. 9. A superb franchise in all aspects.
MINUSSES: 1. Few unnecessary inclusion s of characters could have been avoided. 2. A bit of hitch once or twice in first half but should be neglected.
CONCLUSION: OVERALL a minblowing family entertainer movie.. Totally engaging, total Fun DO GIVE IT A WATCH and u will want to watch it again. Perfect Movie to end the year.
RATINGS: 4.25/5.

Teri Meri Kahaani (2012)
Thrice Upon A Love Story!!
TERI MERI KAHAANI (Movie Review)
ONE LINER:
Thrice Upon A Love Story!!
EXPECTATIONS:
Well Expectations were never very high after first theatrical but after the second theatrical and song promos interest started being developed.. And after KAMINEY Shahid Priyanka Jodi was being getting together again so there were some good expectations because of their on screen chemistry..
VIEWS:
1960 Era : The movie started from 1960's era story. the story is very well told and acting and direction here is very nice.. The comic monents in this era are really funny and enjoyable. JAB SE MERE DIL KO UFF is awesomely picturised and beautifully sung according to the 60's era..
2012 Era : This Era is very well defined as the daily life relationships going on these days by the means of communications shown is totally truth.. and very well executed story but still it feels that something is missing. Both the songs are very well picturised . Especially the concept of That's All I Really Wana Do is superb.
1910 Era : Now this is the era which is most enjoyable and very well executed according to the era. The dialogues, the poetry , the acting is just too good.. and love angle is also very nicely shown.. ALLAH JAANE is used brilliantly while HUMSE PYAR KARLE is also nice..
STORY & SCRIPT:
Story of all the eras is quite good and the script here is a big PLUS .. script is very good..
DIRECTION:
KUNAL KOHLI is back in form totally on director's seat and maintains his history.. first he made MUJHSE DOSTI KAROGI which was a blunder, then he made HUM TUM which was a gem, then he made FANNA which was half awesome and Half Poor, then he again made a blunder of THORA PYAR THORA MAGIC. Now it was his turn to make a better one and he made a beautiful love story here,, Direction is very good..
Editing is brilliantly done , the way all three story merges in one another is very good..
MUSIC:
Music by SAJID WAJID is a great surprise package. This is there best music other than Salman Khan's movie.. All the songs are beautifully composed. Especially ALLAH JAANE is a beautiful composition and brilliantly sung by RAHAT FATEH ALI KHAN. He got a very good song after many average songs. But the most special song of the album in my opinion is JABSE MERE DIL KO UFF awesomly sung by Sonu Nigam and Sunidhi. MUKHTASAR is also a good composition and nicely sung but could have been much better if it would had been sung by Atif Aslam or Ali Zafar.. but still a good one. remaining two songs HUMSE PYAR KARLE and THAT's What are also enjoyable..
CASTING & ACTING:

Rowdy Rathore (2012)
Khiladi Rathore In Action!!
ROWDY RATHORE (Movie Review)
ONE LINER:
Khiladi Rathore In Action!!
EXPECTATIONS:
Expectations were high initially as Akshay returning to action after a long time, produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Prabhudeva directing His next venture after Wanted..
VIEWS:
Well this has again been a wrong promo policy. When the theatrical came and then songs promo came and then other promos came the film seemed to be over the top and cheap and below standard in my views. But after watching the movie I'll say that its not the case.. AK film KHATTA MEETHA suffered due to bad promo policiy too as it showed it as comedy but it was a nice serious movie. First 30 minutes of the movie are totally below average.. as the comic scenes at that moment does not create any impact nor the love angle is well shown.. but after 30 minutes the Movie goes on a high and high from when the girl came and emotional and serious RR starts.. then it creates a pure masala entertainer movie impact till end.
STORY & SCRIPT:
Story is old but the script is quite good.. Love Angle should have been scripted well.
DIRECTION:
Prabhudeva starts bad but after 30 minutes get the grip and never loose it till the end.. Only the Love scenes could have been directed well than he did..
MUSIC:
Music by SAJID WAJID is totally disappointingly average. TERA ISHQ and CHAMMAK CHALLO are the better tracks. In my view CHINTA CHINTA is totally poor song and its repeatedly use seems useless. Dhadang Dhadang and Aa Re Pritam just OK. Music could have been much better than this so as same for the background music.. it should have been better.
CASTING & ACTING:
AKSHAY KUMAR came back to his favourite genre Action and he has acted very very well in RR .. He is the most Positive thing of RR. He played role of Vikram Rathore with high and role of Shiva great to with his bravo comic timings.. He Makes RR watchable..
SONAKSHI SINHA has acted quite good. But her role is not well developed.
The character played by the girl of the daughter of VIKRAM RATHORE has acted very well .. She is superb.
YASHPAL SHARMA & GURDEEP KOHLI are good..
NASSAR as the antagonist is quite good.. really acted very well. the actor played his brother is ordinary and so his son character.
MUSHTAQ KHAN has good comic moments and dialogues. Other actors are OK.
PARESH as AK friend is just OK.
PLUSSES & MINUSES:
PLUSSES:
1. AKSHAY KUMAR's acting.
2. The emotional scenes.
3. The role of the girl.
4. Strong intermission. And strong post and pre intermission scenes.
MINUSSES:
1. First 30 minutes.
2. Music.
3. Background Music.
CONCLUSION:
Bare first 30 minutes and enjoy the remaining film as a great MASALA ENTERTAINER. AKSHAY KUMAR back in form..Wana Go for a Nice Dhisoom Dhisoom Entertaining Movie go for ROWDY RATHORE..
RATINGS: 3.75/5.
Housefull 2 (2012)
A house full of ups and downs!!
HOUSEFULL 2 (Movie Review)
ONE LINER:
A house full of ups and downs.
EXPECTATIONS:
SAJID KHAN directing the second movie of Housfull franchise always created a great hype as people enjoyed housefull a lot, so more fun was expected in this outing as with a huge star cast.
STORY & SCRIPT:
Story of the movie was good . But the script was above average. It could have been much better which would had made it a more fun entertainer.
DIRECTION:
SAJID KHAN after giving a very good HEYY BABY and a good HOUSEFULL with poor climax, now here he had a great chance to make a evergreen entertainer, in which he fails.. Although it is quite a nice entertainer but the direction could have been much better. few scenes are very well directed. Still HEYY BABY is his best direction.
MUSIC:
Music by SAJID WAJID for HOUSEFULL2 was a surprise inspite of a good musical scores in HB & HF by S-E-L. Music is totally average.. not a single song in awesome.. all the songs are just OK. We can say that the music of HOUSEFULL 2 by SAJID WAJID is a average attempt. It could have been better than this.. Though songs are nicely picturised. Background score is also average.
CASTING & ACTING:
AKSHAY KUMAR is the best of the lot as his comic timings are superb and he makes u laugh hard at moments.
JOHN ABRAHAM has tried it hard for comedy caper this time and he has done a good job overall although he goes over at places.
RITESH DESHMUKH and SHREYAS TALPADE comes as secondary to both of the above and they have done a good job.
In heroines ASIN is better amongst all . Heroines didn't had much to do as they were there for support of hearoes to act. ZARINE KHAN didn't suited at all with RITESH . overall casting of heroines was not so good. JACQUELINE and SHAHZAHN had good screen presence, nothing more.
Now the Seniors RISHI & RANDHIR KAPOOR are good and both share a great fighting chemistry on screen. MITHUN is good too. BOMAN IRANI gets a minimal role. he is OK.
CHUNKEY PANDEY as a surprise is total fun after HOUSEFULL. JOHNNY LEVER very good and funny. MALAIKA did a great job in ANARKALI and her act. VINDU was irritating.
PLUSSES & MINUSES:
PLUSSES:
1. AKSHAY KUMAR comic timings.
2. AKSHAY KUMAR scenes with MITHUN are just too good.
3. The best sccene of the movie is which is with crocodile and the python. It was a great fun scene.
4. CHUNKEY PANDEY scenes.
5. Few other quite entertaining scenes.
6. Fights were nice.
MINUSSES:
1. The unwanted forcely made emotion scenes which were not required at all.
2. The ups and downs in entire movie. When u start enjoying the scenes the next scene becomes Average and when movie goes in a average run suddenly a great fun scene somes.
3. Mis casting of heroines.
4. Vindu's scenes were the worst although the fight scene was good.
5. Music could have been better than this.
CONCLUSION:
Overall a very good time pass and a nice entertaining film with few very funny scenes where u laugh like anything.. A good Entertainer. if u wana relax and enjoy a movie go for it.
RATINGS: 3/5.
Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (2012)
Simply Sweet Salty Romance
EK MAIN AUR EK TU (Movie Review) ONE LINER:
Simply Sweet Salty Romance.
EXPECTATIONS:
New fresh pairing of IMRAN KHAN and KAREENA KAPOOR getting together for a rom-com at the edge of valentine's day, being produced by KARAN JOHAR. So definitely expectations were quite positive and in plusses..
STORY & SCRIPT:
The best thing of the story was that it was simple and straight wwhich made the film quite a good film. Script was very nice but could have been more tighter.
DIRECTION:
SHAKUN BATRA being a debut director have done a very decent job. He have made the film simple and gave a very new touch to the film which has not been seen in the BOLLYWOOD. Kind of a style of Hollywood rom-coms. Directed first half much better than the second half but the climax is directed very intelligently.. A nice addition to the new directors lot. He has not tried to complex anything or any extra emotions or any sort of tadka, ehich makes his style a bit unique than others.
MUSIC:
Expectations were more from EMET as music composer was also AMIT TRIVEDI. Actually it's very much a good album but still it could have been a much better album than this. The title track EK MAIN AUR EK TU is the best of the lot. Followed by AHATEIN.
The picturizatio of songs is just brilliant as it also made just average songs worthful and u wana enjoy them especially video made AUNTY JI enjoyable which was a poor track.
CASTING & ACTING:
IMRAN KHAN was the best choice for hero's character here and he has performed it brilliantly. He has acted just too good. His expressions and timing was the best in his career. His one of the best performance. Specially in first half he overtakes even Kareena.
KAREENA KAPOOR in avatar of western GEET from jab we met. She has played the role with ease. and she has acted very well and u always enjoy her character, Her presence is so fresh.
Remaining in supporting roles the best is the actor played role of Kareena's father. he makes u laugh with his lines and acting.. BOMAN IRANI , RATNA PHATAK and RAM KAPOOR all were OK.
PLUSSES & MINUSES: PLUSSES: 1. It's simplicity and straight forward attempt.
2. Watch it for IMRAN KHAN. he has acted too well.
3. The climax. its a brave attempt and very realistic.
4. Movie's length.
5. Imran & Kareena's fresh pairing and their chemistry.
MINUSSES: 1. Second half is bit weak tha first half. script in second half could have been better.
2. Music could have been better although it suits in video but still CONCLUSION:
Overall a sweet simple rom com movie which enjoy from very start to very end.. You come out of theater smiling for sure. and a treat for VALENTINE's Day for sure. Wana relax, go Watch Ek Main Aur Ek Tu.
RATINGS: 3.5/5.
Agneepath (2012)
Agneepath gets it's DUE..
AGNEEPATH (Movie Review) ONE LINER:
Agneepath gets it's DUE..
EXPECTATIONS:
Watching AGNEEPATH in new era after 20 years, one says just WOW!!. But,thinking to see the classical AGNEEPATH made in new style, how can one create or act as AMITABH as VIJAY DINANATH CHOHAN or DANNY is KANCHA having their characters written in gold in history of Bollywood. So, automatically expectations, anxiously and curiosity to see new AGNEEPATH is high to the sky for sure!!.
STORY & SCRIPT :
Story here is just very very good written in a manner that it shows all new AGNEEPATH with having majot crisps of the old one.
Script is another beauty of the movie giving actors to perform historians, but still a much more crisp in the script and a bit of thrill would have made it gold. But still a beautiful script.
DIRECTION:
KARAN MALHOTRA as a Debut director made his one of the bravest move of his life and made AP again but thankfully not in the same fashion as the classic one was. He recreated it totally in his way having new angles and characters but maintaining the main characters original of VIJAY & KANCHA. His vision is just great and quiete wide and has made a wonderful action movie or we can say a wonderful dark action movie. He is here to stay, giving his vision to AP.
MUSIC:
In AP now AJAY-ATUL performs their duty of composers with guts. The compositions are just beautiful especially " ABHI MUJH MAIN " sung by SONU NIGAM and "O SAIYAAN" sung by ROOP KUMAR RATHOD. "ABHI MUJH MAIN" which sees the class of Sonu Nigam again. "CHIKNI CHAMELI" is their old composition. SHAH KA RUTBA is also nice so as GUN GUN GUNA.
The videos & choreography & the timings of the songs in the movie are just awesome. Whether you see SHAH KA RUTBA or GUN GUN GUNA. Katrina Kaif shows that how hard she works & make the mouths of people shut who claimed that she can not dance in CHIKNI CHAMELI. It's a chart buster in single screens gaining lots lots of whistles and cheer so as in multiplexes. ABHI MUJH MAIN is a total surprise . It's directed with great emotions and a beautiful angle & it makes you feel the emotions. Same was the case with O SAIYAAN as it's promo created astrong impact but for audience's disappointment it's there for only 30 seconds. Background music is just mindblowing. One of the best background music ever heard. What a impact it creates in the movie.
Music needs few hearings and u become fond of it. Overall a worth praising music.
CAST & ACTING:
HRITHIK ROSHAN as VIJAY DINANATH CHOHAN is a master booster for the fill in shoes of AMITABH but he delivers the role in his own way and has given one of his career best performance. His first out & out action movie. When u see his expressions, you literally become speechless that boss how brilliant are his expressions.Totally award winning performance.
SANJAY DUTT as KANCHA as got a worthy role after his Munna Bhai role. And his get up as KANCHA is just enough to make many people sleepless as he is totally fearful and he acts very well. Delivers a great performance. But at few places got over but is avoidable.
The biggest surprise is the new role played by RISHI KAPOOR of RAUF LALA. And what a avatar he has got and delivers a smashing villain performance. A total surprise. Both villains are just great.
PRIYANKA CHOPRA as HRITHIK's love interest, plays a sweet and naughty naughty bubbly character as KAALI.she has a proper role and she acts well so as she looks stunning in the movie.
ZARINA WAHAB and the girl played the role of sister and the role of father of HRITHIK , all have acted very well. All remaining actors have acted very well too.
PLUSSES & MINUSES: PLUSES: 1. Karan Johar attempting his father's great film AGNEEPATH again and showing confidence on KARAN MALHOTRA and the idea. Bravo. 2. Direction. 3. Post interval scene. 4. Brother sister chemistry, especially two scenes in this respect are master blaster. a. When VIJAY's sister comes to know about her brother. b. The complete scene brother sister spending time together and the dinner scene at home. 5. Initial scene when KANCHA gives punishment to VIJAY's father. 6. Music & background music. 7. Acting by all actors. 8. It's time duration on which many have said that it's dragged, but I think differently as in my opinion the movie is not at all dragged, it required this much time. Assume cutting LORD OF THE RINGS cutting by 30 minutes or ZINDAGI NA MILEGI DOBARA by 20 minutes, you would have missed entertainment of that time or cut BATMAN THE DARK KNIGHT for even 15 minutes and it would have made loss of 15 crucial minutes for sure, all will agree i think. 8. Dark & violent action, as if it would not have been the case, the impact would have been less than this.
MINUSES: 1. O SAIYAAN video should not have been cut. 2. Script could have been much crispier and had a bit thrill. 3. Sanjay goes over at times.
CONCLUSION:
Overall the movie is an all & all entertaining action movie presented in a totally new style than the classic AP which made it's impact far better then if it would have been made for sure. A full package movie. Go for it !! RATINGS: 4.75/5.
Rockstar (2011)
Rockstar Totally ROCKS!!
MOVIE REVIEW (Rockstar)
ONE LINE REVIEW
Rockstar Totally ROCKS!!
EXPECTATIONS
Since Rockstar has been in making process it was in news.. RANBIR KAPOOR In new avatar. IMTIAZ ALI the director directing it after great successes of Luv Aaj Kal and Jab We Met and AR RAHMAN as music composer. what more good can one expect and new pairing of RANBIR And NARGIS FAKHRI. And Since the trailers and music launched Rockstar already became a Rage..
STORY, SCRIPT & DIRECTION
Story written by IMTIAZ ALI is just superb. The Script was great. many people in their reviews have written that they felt that the narration of the movie is not good and second half is slow and stuff like that but I totally differ from all. The naration of the movie is just too good. so as i didn't found anything being stretched. This is the most MATURE DIRECTION of IMTIAZ ALI till date. his direction is brilliant. Many people will differ from me on this that they felt post interval portions or climax weak or the narration of the movie was not good but I TOTALLY DIFFER AS I FELL THE POST INTERVAL, CLIMAX, NARRATION ALL was just AWESOME..
Specially the INTENSITY of the LOVE story was just mindblowing. beautifully wriiten mindblowing love story i would say IMTIAZ ALI have did it once more.. He is one of the best director these days. His Story of the movie, his direction is just TOO GOOD.
MUSIC
MR. AR RAHMAN has did it once more.. He has given one of His best music so far.. THE MUSIC OF ROCKSTAR IS JUST OUT OF THIS WORLD..
When the music released it took several hearings to grip as most of AR RAHMAN's music do but once it grips on u , u'll fall in love with the Music of ROCKSTAR.. The music arrangements, the compositions, the lyircs, the vocals, everything is just BRILLIANT. Similarly, the BACKGROUND MUSIC of the movie totally goes with the movie and is great too..
Lyrics By Irshal Kamil are just Too mind blowing .. He has given one of His best too. And Mohit Chohan has done a Brilliant job as vocalist as his voice totally suits JORDAN 's character.
Sadda Haq, Jo Bhi Main, Tum Ho, Hawa Hawa, How can one choose all are too good including the instrumentals. and after the picturization of songs one love the songs more.. specially the picturization of Hawa Hawa and Aur Ho is on the top.
CAST, ACTING & CHEMISTRY
RANBIR KAPOOR as a Rockstar (JORDAN) totally Rocks.. He has given his career best Acting without any doubt and is surely an award winning performance. His emotions, his dialogue delievery, his body language, his anger, his love, his Music, is just MINDBLOWING..
NARGIS FAKHRI ,what i find by IMTIAZ ALI, Her screen pressence is so cool and sweet. she has acted very well as a debutant. her emotions and her love is too good. just her dialogue delievery was weak which was a some what let down but still she has done a great job.
The CHEMISTRY and Love story and the INTENSITY between RANBIR and NARGIS is Brilliant. they rock throughout the movie..
SHAMMI KAOOR in His last movie is totally likable and He has done his part very good.. the JUGAL BANDI scene is a treat to watch.
KUMUD MISHRA is very good in his role so as ADITI RAO in her role suits totally and have done a great job.
PIYUSH MISHRA is very good to.. his Massage sceen is too enjoyable..
SHERNAZ PATEL Is good so as MAUFID AZIZ..
The casting of the movie is brilliant..
CONCLUSION
Only at few places the movie dips a bit and gets slow but those are to be avoided as remaining movie is a TREAT to watch..
Sadda Haq, Tum Ho, Nadaan Parindey, Phir se Ud Chala, Jo Bhi Main Kehna Chahun...
Rockstar totally rocks.... Awesome direction..Beautiful intensity of the Love story.... Music just Brilliant,, and RK a true Rockstar.. Luvd every bit of it.. ROCKSTAR..!!
RATINGS = 4.75/5. (Many will not agree with me on this but in my opinion this rating is justified..
Rockstar is year's 3rd best movie after ZNMD and NOKJ)..
