Rambo (IV)

Rambo's back, after nearly 2 decades. Another rescue operation, teaming with some 'young' military lads, against a small battallion of enemy soldiers. Ofcourse, he swipes the enemies off the earth!!!

The movie has some great combat scenes, which are so realistically picturised that you sit with your eyes closed most of the time : violence at its peak, and blood flowing through the screen all the time. Stallone is amazing : agile and fit even at an age of 60. The scene near the end where he creeps into the scene when hope eludes the captives, is cool.

Watch this, if you love war-action, and not allergic to blood.

Bheema

Yet another gangster movie. The film does not live upto its hype ( 2 yrs in the making, Vikram at its best, etc..) : there is nothing different in this movie than other gangster movies that have come recently. There is nothing much for Vikram to do here: he just bashes thugs and roams around. Trisha is cute. Prakash Raj adds one more feather to his cap. The songs are good, especially OruMugamo and RanguRangamma.

The movie can be watched for some good stunts.

Pirivom Sandhippom

A story about a newly wed couple, and their separation from a really large family. Although a bit long, the movie is good, and delivers what it intends to. The characters are portrayed naturally, the sequences develop spontaneously, and the movie ends happily. Dedicated to all home-makers, who spend most of their time in solitude at home. No fights, no dance numbers, no heroic feats. Worth a watch for the family ethics the movie displays.

Billa

A stylish hero in the lead, sleek picturisation and some good stunts : Billa is a big hit for Ajith. Ajith fits perfectly in the macho, cunning, daredevil role of Billa. Had he talked more than he had walked, the movie would have been better. Nayantara is awesome 8). Prabhu has given a great performance. Santhanam rocks, eventhough he appears in just 2 scenes. The songs are good in picturisation but dance (???!!!) is scarce : all song-sequences are more like photo-shoots and ramp-walks. The theme music is simply superbbbb, and the background score is great at many places!!!

Maybe, I had big expectations for the movie because this is a remake of one of Rajni's biggest hits, and not everything was fulfilled. But, the movie is definitely worth a watch for its style.

I am legend

Wow!! A fantastic performance by Will Smith. The first scene where he hunts down a deer on a sports car in the roads of NYC is really awesome. Although the story is well known (zombie fighting), this doesn't end in the usual way, and that makes it different. The sound effects are really good (I watched it at PVR). My friends had a bad night, due to the after-effects of the movie ( I am really brave, ofcourse !!!).

A great One-man-show by Smith...

The colour Blue

My favourite colour is blue. All my friends will agree to this (with a biiiggg yawn!!!). Most of my t-shirts are blue, all my jeans are blue, my shoes are blue, my blog's layout is blue. Blue is appealing, soft, majestic, simple, easy and everywhere. The sky is blue, the seas are blue ( and more blah blah blah to support my 'blue' thoughts.. )

I am so obsessed with this colour, that I haven't figured out the reason yet !!!

Happy New Year

Let all your wishes come true, goals get completed, and happiness blessed aplenty. If you truly realize what you are, and do what you really want, everything said earlier will surely be yours.

Happy new year...

Taare Zameen Par

An excellent movie, that can move every person who sees it. A must-watch for everyone who loves children (and for who don't, too). This is a good example of "how a movie can effectively create social awareness, better then any other means of media". One more reason for me to love movies 8)

I now know that I have a lot to learn, a lot to change and a lot to do...
