Kidari ajeossi (2005)
Refreshing, beautiful and one of the best Korean love story
If you are a Korean movie lover then this is the best well for me it is. I just loved it every bit of it. It's been awhile that I have started watching Korean movie and loved them so many but this is the only one which made me write in IMDb. The story is well plotted and the film itself is so well made that you don't know where it is leading you to until you reach around the end and will be shocked to know the end. I bought this movie just for time pass and had thought it would be like any other Korean movie and while at the beginning I had started predicting the end but obviously the characters where so good that kept me going and then couldn't keep my eyes off it when the story started unfolding. I wouldn't like to ruin the excitement by telling the story I just want to compliment the movie for it was just too good in every way possible way. The actors are good too including the supporting casts. I don't know where the Koreans get such wonderful stories from though the ending is almost the same in almost all the movies it is how wonderfully crafted these movie are and have its own identity. This surely is one of the best romantic Korean movie I have watched. The lead actors are so perfect for their role and have truly given justice to their roles. Especially the lead actor his innocence could kill any girl and make them want to fall in love and the lead actress like other Korean movies she hasn't tried to be overly cute but she is simple innocent and cute too but at times only. This one will surely make your heartache and make you think about it even after you have watched it. The characters are also not very over hyped or things they are just too simple their talks their looks and their cloths too. Like every Korean movie it is too sad but it doesn't include too much crying and sobbing and still make you hurt somewhere and eventually makes you cry. Though a simple love story its strength lies in how it makes you rethink the whole movie again, unpredictable storyline and gives importance to every scene in the movie and also makes you realize that there is too much love around even the one which we do not know about or are just overlooking them. I think the movie plot is original well I haven't seen such a plot in any movie before so it is original for me and the soundtracks included in the movie are good too . I just loved this movie and would recommend everyone who loves Korean movie to watch it. After watching movies like ditto, my sassy girl, my tutor friend and this one there is no doubt in saying that Korean movie industry is the only one to give the best love story movies ever.
My Fair Lady (1964)
The other kind of LOVE
The other kind of LOVE
I won't say that this is a HIGHLY enjoyable film
. This is a MUSICAL!!!! And there are some-almost many- times when it seems that the SONGS are extending way too long
Same lyrics being repeated again and again.. makes some scenes completely annoying
. The uncaring father's Part too gets a bit too elongated and Boring
.
And with all that put aside this MOVIE is GREAT indeed
The SONGS are also very good
enjoyable
The first two songs sung by the Professor and the Rag-girl are highly enjoyable
.. The story is well handled
The first half is a bit too long
and the second half is filled with so many GREAT moments
making it seem almost too short
.
The performances and the Chemistry between the TWO leading ACTORs is Magical
This is Not a romantic Love Comedy
. But it is a LOVE comedy Musical
.
The ending scene need no parsing
It's a fantastic ending to a fantastic film
DID u Like Sound Of Music??? If yes then You might LOVES this one

9/10 Truly Magnificent Classic
Elizabethtown (2005)
a good movie ...
Well Orlando bloom is a very pretty guy everyone must accept that and he has already proved to be a good actor by movies like Ned Kelly. So I think in Elizabeth town too he did a great job obviously not the best we have ever seen but at least he tried and he doesn't over do it and make it more irresistible to watch .He has given just how much the character and the director has asked for. And you must know that he even was in the movie kingdom of heaven this year which was an absolutely different movie than this one still he has been able to give quite an appreciable performance so how can any one give names on his acting I too don't believe that he has outcaste the comedy legends but still he did quite an OK job and the fact that he used to act only on movies like kdh, pyrites of Caribbean sea I think he has been successful in doing something different .And he must keep on doing something like this and should be more fantastic when he does it next time to prove the critics wrong that he is just a pretty face. Well, Kristen is a very good actress she always probes it in her every movie and here too she does quite a good job but not as appealing as Natalie in garden state. Orlando and Kristen make a great pair. And then the supporting casts are also good especially Susan she is very good and funny. But the real problem with movie is I guess that it is too slow and is not quite interesting at times. The story is very good actually and the love between son and father has been shown nicely by the director as well as by Orlando. And the songs in the movie need a special mention they are just too good and specially the one that goes "come lift me up". This movie will be a real pleasure to watch for Orlando's fan.
Garden State (2004)
Zach has done a brilliant job
Touching, sentimental, obviously very humorous and romantic this movie has everything .Specially superb performance by Natalie is just like cherry on top of the cake. Zach who is the director, writer and the lead actor of the movie has made this movie so superbly that it is just too good and one of the reason is that it is young it shows the story of mid twenty guy who hasn't felt life for a long time maybe since the time of his birth who longs for love, home. A story about a lonely guy who feels guilty for his moms death and is a complete stranger to his own dad .true not an unusual story but the way it has been made and the performance gives this movie freshness and make you feel that it is different and wonderful .I wonder how he came up with such a wonderful meaningful young story and direction. He will go sky high if he keeps on doing such great jobs you know. I wouldn't say that Zach has done the best acting ever but his character is so good and how he fits in the role makes people love him very much .Specially the chemistry between Sam and large it is so good it not sexy or vulgar or something like I will bring the stars for you but instead it is very real, sweet, sensible and caring. The last scene where large comes back for Sam when he finally realizes where his home is very very brilliant .Natalie she is always great, simply great .She fits in the character so well that it is very hard to even think the movie without her she gives Sam sweetness to her character by her mesmerizing performance . After you watch this one you won't believe it is the same Natalie who did closer or vendetta. She is superb. The other supporting cast also has quite a good job but the movie completely belongs to Zach for his brilliant directorial debut and Natalie for her astounding performance. And the songs of this movie deserve to be mentioned they have chosen the best songs which can elaborate the scene and will really be liked by the viewer especially by young people. I have watched it twice and I intend to watch it again because it is just too good.
Crash (2004)
best movie of 2005
Brilliant, just brilliant. Really the best motion picture of the year it truly deserved the Oscar. Everything is so superbly presented specially the plot is brilliantly set .how the characters get related is very interesting and specially the actors though they are only there for a sec they deliver the best performance wow brilliant. This movie is flawless I must say. Humorous at times and makes you provoked and at times make you cry out with all your guts. Is it how life goes in all parts of U.S or is it only in the L.A.I thought that racial discrimination was still present only in countries like mine but I was shocked to see that people out there in the U.S are in more worse state then in ours .I love the message that this movie tried to spread that to up lift your race we should stop feeling that we were always meant to be out casted. Everyone is equal everyone should understand that .Black people are not animals that you can do what ever you like at any time .Do people in U.S have to live with fear that today I might be shot by a white man or by black man? Wasn't all men the creation of god whether it be women or men child ,white or black ,or of diff castes .Well I believe animals are better then men at least they are not hungry for their own kinds blood .Pouring each other's blood is it any worth? Once who gave rise to such discrimination are dead and gone. The only thing I didn't like in this movie is the scene where the black women is humiliated in public and if that really happens then all I say is don't you dare lay your dirty hands on a women whether she be black or white or of lower caste you disgusting pig imagine that being happening to you mother or to your daughter imagine her being molested in front of you and you aren't able to do any god damn thing I don't understand when it comes to suffering why are the women the only ones to suffer the most. If I were that black women I would have died in the car instead being of being saved by such pathetic person. If there are gonna be this kind of discrimination even in the most developed countries itself then what are we suppose to expect from our countries where there still are untouchables. People in my country would rather die than drinking water touched by the people of lower caste. How the movie tries to show the horrible thing happening behind the public eyes is so provoking specially that scene where that white man say that will put the medal on the black man to gain more vote that is disgusting bloody politician I am sure they will go to the place pathetic then hell .All in all a brilliant movie which unfolds different stories really happening around U.S and gives people living outside U.S a better view of it .And makes people think again whether U.S where we think our dreams get a chance to be true is it really a best place to live are we safe out there will our talent get recognized out there without discriminated that I am an Asian ????? Ludicrous rocks
Pride & Prejudice (2005)
a pleasure to watch.
What a beautiful movie I loved this bollywood story typed flick. It is really a pleasure to watch Keira act in it she is as pretty as ever and has done something very different than domino wonderful. She makes the movie very fresh she's got the touch of Winona that is for sure and Mr. Darcy took my heart away he keep the chemistry between Lizze and Darcy alive .he make the movie very very romantic .though the story is as usual I loved this movie and I should say it is hundred times better then that bollywood flick .yes true if Gwyneth and Winona can get Oscar for SIL and little women then Keira deserved it too. Acting wise everyone is awesome. The scene in this movie are very good and so beautiful but the language it is so hard to understand but yet I could get along .I think finally Jane Austin's book got justified .The humorous scenes are presented nicely everything has been set up so perfectly the best part in movie for me was that scene where Mr. Darcy confesses his secret love to Lizze. Lizze's sis Joan is the prettiest person in the movie. Joan's undying love for Mr. bimgly is also well presented. Two people who are too proud of themselves can really fall in love and that is the thing that makes the movie very romantic. Really this is a not to miss movie .the most beautiful movie of year 2005
North Country (2005)
just brilliant .
Well I think this is the best movie to be released last year along with constant Gardner .This movie is just too good specially because you get to see Charlie so pretty and so strong. Well for me she is even better then her last movie monster. People might have thought that she could do the role in monster because it was an unusual role from the ones she used to do but here she proves everyone wrong she proves to the world that she is as good actress as Julia Robert or myrl streep by doing a role where she doesn't have to transform her look. She looks too pretty and smart and is able to deliver the best acting ever. I hope to see her in big bannered movies now .And even supporting cast all are just too good specially that women who ends up being in the wheel chair at the end of the movie. And the role Charlize has portrayed is just too good it is really hard to believe people so strong and determined women like Josey aims do really live in our world .I think there should be more women like her who could create a change in the world, who are really determined to do something in this cruel male dominated world where men think that the women are like the animals who should be under their and they can touch and hurt them whenever and however they like. Then only will the world know the value of women and their power. Round of claws for you Josey and everyone who helped her win the case against those cruel men I think each one should have been brutally killed for their horrible deeds. Their deeds were not forgivable not even by god. Things like that still happen in places like our country where money can buy the rule and regulation set to protect us because of that reason women in, my place, (where even qualified men hardly get job), who have job are not thought to be of good nature because to get the job they either have to be related to someone very powerful or they have to sell themselves. A truly brilliant movie and salute Josey for her courageous deed and all those who stood by her.
The Constant Gardener (2005)
Best political love story movie with the best performance of the year by Rachel.
This is what we call acting which truly mesmerizes you till the end even if the actor has a very limited role in the movie .Wow, Rachel is awesome in the movie simply breathtaking .Yes, a the lead actor too has done a brilliant performance very soft and innocent who turns out to be very strong at the end to avenge his wife's death .But Rachel is so good you keep thinking about her in the whole movie even if she is not there .She completely steals the show .Hats off to Rachel for such an astounding performance I hope to see her more in such strong roles .I think among all the Oscar winners this year she was the most deserving one if the Oscar hadn't given it to her then it wouldn't be not worthy to be called "THE Oscar". I liked the movie too specially because it involves the story about the a person who wants to fight for justice but not for herself but for them who are in trouble and are suffering .This is the best political movie I have ever watched .And the fact that it is a political love story is even more wonderful .I specially love the role Rachel plays specially in the scene where she meet her husband for the first time and the part where Tessa's husband tries to complete the thing that his beloved wife had started and died for. And that scene where Tessa feeds the child of some other woman and where she asks favor to her husband to give ride home to the mother and son who had to walk home for one day was so touching .Can people like Rachel really exist in this ruthless 21st century world? I don't think so .Other things very good about the movie is that it speaks the truth it tries to uncover the stories that are knowingly being hidden from the public's view .Truly a part of me did get moved after watching this movie ,are this things really happening in places like Africa .As I myself am from an underdeveloped country this movie forced me to think that what will happen to my country if we aren't going to something right away .And lastly the best for this movie to be so good is because of the brilliant performance by the lead actor and actress. A truly wonderful movie with a great story where Rachel is at her best.
Rang De Basanti (2006)
It's not Amir..it is Siddharth who leave you stunned with his astounding performance.
Yes Siddharth completely dominates the movie as we reach the end of the movie it is he who we think about and admire the most .How he evolves in the movie is so good. He is so natural and mind blowing. Sid plays silent speaker in this movie .There are so many things being told through his eyes .In the first half of the movie he leaves you stun on every words he speaks like "nautanki sala", "welcome to India, sue ", "depressing nonsense", etc. And in the second half he is the one who turns out to be the true hero. This guy deserves to go sky high. When we speak about this movie I think he is the first thing that we should talk about because he is just simply superb. He is so convincing the dialogue that he gives in the movie are the same that we speak about politics with our friends. Though he speaks less it seems he is the one most concerned about his country .It is Karan's character which provokes us against country's state. He has shown the exact rage seen in the youth of country and obviously his style which kills the girls and makes the boys jealous. What can I say he is simply the best thing in rdb and to the person who's called this overacting I don't think that you know what acting is after watching to many unreal Hindi movies. Though not an Indian I liked the movie because it speaks against corruption and it is the disease that our country is also suffering from so this kind of movies should be watched by the citizen of every country where corruption has overshadowed the government of the country. I think this movie should be a superhit and should celebrate its jubilee. I specially liked the way the movie was made it is something very different then we see in usual Hindi movies and the ending though sad but it is very true that is the exact thing which happens to the people who speak the truth and tries to create a change .This is the only good movie to come out after "black". This movie should be remembered till many years to come .Believe it or not now me and my gals have started talking like the character Karan. I think his is the character which enters into the hearts and minds of every youth. Well Amir has also done very good he excels in comic role (as he always does) and even Sharmaan. Kunal is next best thing in rdb he is so natural and his smile which could melt the hearts of many. I don't understand where this guys were when things like Hirthik ,Vivik and Abhisek happened . Soha well is also very good well better then her other movies and she comes under those new actresses who can really act and doesn't care about their looks or their body. But at last it is Sid who completely steals the show. Atul, Alice and Madavan are also good and among the supporting cast it is Kirron who is so admirable in her every entrance in the movie. I hope to see Siddharth and even Kunal in better bollywood movies. I have already watched this movie 3 times (one of my other friend 4) in the hall now waiting for its DVD.
