Delhi 6
A mandir-masjid
dispute arising out of monkeyman menace in the heart of Delhi is as
bizarre as a couple of youths gunning down the country’s defence
minister only because he ridiculed their dead pilot friend! ^^ click here to go back to top^^
Twenty 20 (2008)
Cast
![]()
Imagine casting all the important stars in a language for a
single film and giving equal importance to all the superstars!!
It is indeed a mammoth task which has been carried out very well
by the makers of Twenty:20. The huge effort taken by
all the cast and crew in the Malayalam film industry has
resulted in a racy, thrilling and amazingly well-made film. The
first round of applause should be given to the writers who have
taken script-writing to a new level by providing us a 3 hour
film without a single dull moment. In fact, all the areas of
film-making in Twenty:20 excel with superb action,
songs and suspense.
The plot, interestingly, comes in layers. There are stories inside the story and it seems there is a twist in every scene. The suspense slowly builds up, ending in an explosive climax which will leave the audience in ecstasy. It is Vishu and like every nostalgic Malayalee, Retired Justice Viswanathan Menon (Madhu) returns home with his wife ( Kaviyoor Ponnamma) to his splendid ancestral home in Kerala to celebrate the event with his children (Siddique and Vijayaraghavan). In the beginning itself, there is rib-tickling comedy involving Innocent, who acts as the caretaker of the house and some thieves (played by Cochin Haneefa, Harisri Asokan, Kochu Preman and Kalpana) who break into the house creating mayhem. The joyful atmosphere soon turns gloomy as Viswanathan's son Arun (Indrajith), a medical student in Bangalore, is taken into police custody by the cunning Police Commissioner Antony Punnakkadan (Suresh Gopi). His alleged crime? Murdering a fellow student! A brilliant lawyer Ramesan Nambiar (Mammootty) arrives on the scene to rescue him out. Vinod Bhaskar (Jayaram), professor of the medical college, who wants to testify in Arun's favour, is kidnapped by a thug Karinkal Pappachan (Kalabhavan Mani); adding to the misery, mayhem and mystery, Arun too gets killed. Antony Punnakkadan arrests Devan (Mohanlal) in connection with Arun's murder, but Devan turns out to be a poor trader whose presence at the murder spot was a mere coincidence. Devan's sister (Kavya Madhavan) and mother (Sukumari) arrive and declare that Devan is innocent and that he is being framed by Punnakkadan. They urge Ramesan Nambiar to take up Devan's case. Ramesan, heeding his dear wife's advice, argues in court for Devan, eventually setting him free. Now comes the real twist. Devan is actually an underworld don Devaraja Pratap Varma, who is after Ramesan to extract his revenge for the death of his brother Karthi (Dileep). The film goes into flashback mode, becoming the backbone of the story, and revealing some startling truths. All this winds up in the big climax with all the hullabaloo ending in a shootout. Mammootty and Mohanlal fans can finally relax; the film gives equal importance to both of them and they are superb as usual. Other movies in which Mammootty played a lawyer have proved that it is the most suitable role for him; in Twenty:20, his excellent performance confirms this. Mohanlal as Devan is outstanding with the right mannerisms and style. Suresh Gopi is amazing in his typical police role. This actor is born to play a policeman!! Dileep appearing in a short role has an impeccable sense of timing. The comedy band led by Innocent and Jagathy are at their wittiest here. Director Joshy and script writers Sibi K. Thomas and Udayakrishnan have done the impossible and created history, not to mention the crew, which consists of all the brilliant brains in the Malayalam film industry. Like Prithviraj, some of the actors have miniscule roles; Jayasurya appears only in a song with Nayantara. The three songs composed by Suresh Peters are peppy. Twenty:20 is a tribute to Malayalam cinema for its years of creating excellent films and the money it raises will be spent on a good cause. So, the last word is: Twenty:20 is awesome and those who miss it miss the chance to watch the entire Malayalam film industry coming together on a single platform to provide the most wholesome entertainment it has ever produced.

My Little Bride
Cast
Exceptional movie! It was this movie which introduced to Korean cinema, but it was My Sassy Girl (reviewed earlier ) which really made me a fan of Koran cinema. The story is something unique (though not in modern times) about how two highly contrasted relatives are forced to marry each other owing to their ailing grandparents' commitment to marry them. The girl plays a school girl while the guy has just passed his honours and goes on to take training that too in her school!! The story moves in a very funny manner while portrayin the story at the same time. Both the actors hav played a commendable job and anyone who watches this movie is definite to fall in love with korean cinema, if not their gals atleast!!. This movie is definitely an award winner which I think u should be watchin should / shouldn't u be given a chance. So go to ur nearest dvd retailer now!! ^^ click here to go back to top^^
Wall - E (2008)
Cast
I had a chance
to see Wall-E again last week..Really this is one hell of a movie. Pixar
really lives upto its reputation. It tells the tale of a robot named
Wall-e who falls in love with another robot EVE. Wall- E was a robot
left by the humans to clean up planet earth after it had been
contaminated to dangerous levels forcing humans to go on an endless
journey in a spaceship. Eve arrives to check for life which she later
does which meant it was time for the humans to return back. i dont wanna
tell the story here cuz it would spoil ur experience. Overall, this
movie simply roxx cuz a) its very humourous b) the animation is top
class wherein u forget its animation c) Its has a underlying moral of
careless human action behind it d) It is fit for all ages (family film)! ^^ click here to go back to top^^
Rang De Basanti
Being an Aamir Khan fan, I downloaded Rang De Basanti, hoping it would live up to his standards and fame and I am glad it did..In fact it was even better..The story shows how on earth one can bring out history in the context of modern cinema..The story links the story of Bhagath Sing with the acts of Aamir and team symbolising a revolution to better India...On the whole, I would say this film definitely deserves a jury mention (lol) ...Except for the acting in some parts and a hell lot of unnecessary songs, this film has the words "Watch it, u'll love it!", written on it! ^^ click here to go back to top^^
