without giving the movie away…

Jaane Tu ya jaane na - Review

4th July 2008 | posted in Hindi Movies, meetu | 0 Comments | 488 views

Rating: Wait for video release (Rating Scale)

Quick Review: The only word that comes to mind is ‘cute’. No less and unfortunately, no more.

Love Story 2050 - Review

4th July 2008 | posted in Hindi Movies, meetu | 8 Comments | 1114 views

Rating: Switch channels if it’s on cable! (Rating Scale)

Quick Review: A brand new, spanking bright low has been hit! What else can you say when calling a movie ‘no brainer’ is like paying it a compliment? Ladies and gentlemen, if the Baweja family’s vision were to come true, the future of romance is very bleak.

thoda pyaar thoda magic - Review

27th June 2008 | posted in Hindi Movies, meetu | 14 Comments | 4300 views

Rating: Wait for video release - no kids for company? Skip it! (Rating Scale)

Quick Review: Though I have huge complaints in most departments, I can’t deny that it’s perfect packaging for kids in the 3-12 age group. With hardly any “sad” moments, the characters are mostly colorful and chirpy. But, given my reservations, should I actually encourage my kids to watch this when not too long ago Taare Zameen Par was around? Oh, why not? There’s enough room for everybody.

Rating: Wait for video release - extra credit for trying a rarely attempted concept (Rating Scale)

NOT A REVIEW - Just excited about seeing this assembly of talent on screen together.

Kay Kay Menon, Vinay Pathak, and Rajat Kapoor! Just these names make me want to watch the movie right now! Add to the medley Sandhya Mridul and Sonali Kulkarni. I know, these women don?t necessarily have [...]

I don’t know whether I should laugh or cry. But, I am sure I can provide you with a laugh or two at my expense!

I would have been able to tell you what the movie is like, if I had gotten a chance to see it! The show I [...]

De Taali - Review

20th June 2008 | posted in Hindi Movies, meetu | 5 Comments | 3434 views

Rating: Wait for video release (Rating Scale)

Quick Review: A 2.5 hour long movie. With about an hour’s worth of smiles, laughs and hard-core laughter filled in. All because of fresh dialogue and awesome comic timing. You have to be willing to tolerate the many out of place songs and the “sheeeeesh” climax though.
