Summer Love = Movies !!

As many of you might already know .. I am a movie buff esp when Summer arrives .. Last summer, I didnt watch a lot of movies as I was in India .. But this yr, I am compensating for the loss .. Have watched almost all the movies currently in theatre (Bn to atleast one movie a week for the last 8 weeks).. so thot y not give my take on the movies...and Here it goes

Kites –A complete failure in terms of story line or the hype it has created .. u can watch the movie jus for Hrithik’s dance moves, body and the chemistry btwn Barabara Mori and him… oh ya .. Barbara is hot too ! You would get a few laughs too here and there ( and esp at the ending ) ..I jus thot is was mix and match of different hollywood films (*)

Raavan(an) – Though I didnt watch the hindi one, I wud suggest may b gng once for the following reaons  1.Cinematography, 2. locations 3.music 4. Coz it is Mani Ratnam’s movie … If you are one of the few who understand both tam and hindi (or telugu and hindi) .. then go for the tam/tel version jus to see Vikram’s acting abilities .. He did an awesome job! Oh ya .. it is loosely based on the Ramayana 

Tamil *** 1/2 and Hin **

Rajeneethi – Good acting performances ..have a bunch of well-known actors, ….Katrina does a pretty good job too… story is interesting but start is confusing coz I lost track of who is related to who and how .. def worth a watch  (****)

Sex and the city 2  - Didnt live upto my expectations … wasnt even half good as the prequel …. but the only i went for it for the outrageous dress Carrie wud wear and to check out other designs .. it is one of those movies where the dress plays such as important role  + plus it celebrates girlfriends (** 1/2)

Robin Hood – should have been named how he came to be known as RobinHood .. good  movie tho .. first 2 hrs u r lost on what is happening coz u r expecting something and it is not gng in that direction … the last 10 mins solves the puzzle … unless u r a history buff, u can watch it online (***)

Prince of Persia – loved it … used to play the game when i was  a kid .. so it was nice to see it as a movie .. the movie reminds scenes from the games esp the jumps and the fights he wud have to do each level … loved the story line with its twists and turns … the hero is good too and hot ! a def watch (****)

Iron Man 2 – not one of the best sequels .. but one could still watch it coz of the tech stuff … kinda repeat fights but the villan was brilliant and suddenly looked more appealing than the iron man in terms of knowledge … Downey Jr looked old and wish he has better make up! (***)

Toy Story 3 – LOVED it .. one of the best sequels I have watch in a long while … a def watch … wil make u miss u toys for sure .. a lil long but u wudnt mind it … and will b lost in the world of toys ! (*****)

Shrek 4 – it is one of the sequels where they r using the brand to make more money … Tried to bring in new characters but I think the first movie was the best .. One thing tho, which I loved in this movie where the babies of the dragon and donkey .. they were adorable … one can watch this movie if u have already watched the other 3 .. if u skipped it, u didnt miss much either .. ( ***)

The A team - When I went for this movie, I didnt expect much but ended up liking it .. if u like strategy, planning and plotting, this is one of those movies .. I gen love those funny one – liners in btwn a serious movie .. and this has many of them .. I thoroughly did enjoy the movie .. But not sure if it would appeal to all audiences (*** 1/2)

The Karate  Kid – Dnt go to ths movie coz u loved the original one … Go for this one coz u like Jackie Chan and u r interested to see wat Jaden Smith can do .. Both of them do a really good job … Also it is interesting to see an African American kid stuck in China and how he faces peer pressure .. You could kinda relate to him in this ! Some of the scenes are good .. the movie is very predictable, most of the times  ! (***)

I have a cpl of movies to catch up such as Letters to Juliet among others .. I am also watching old movies in Hulu and Crackle … Also, looking forward to more summer releases .. That list goes something like this

1. Twilight – Eclipse (yuppie gng first day first show at 12.01 am :D )
2. The Last Airbender – looking fwd to the graphics
3. Despicable Me (Animation)
4. Predators – May be
5. Knight and Day – Tom Cruise - May Be
6. Inception – Di Caprio – May Be
7. The Sorcerer’s Apprentice – Nicholas Cage
8. Salt – for Angeline Jolie
9. Eat Pray Love – heard the book is good (one my reading list)
