The Descendants : by Alexander Payne

The Descendants is a drama film set in Kauai , a Hawaiian island.

This film traces the journey of a land baron , Matt King played by quintessential George Clooney. He owns a trust with a 25,000 acres land in his name.

The King family decides to sell it off to a Kauai inhabitant , Don Holitzer.

A sudden turn of events - Matt's wife suffers a major accident on a boating trip forcing her into a coma. Matt is left with the guardianship of his 2 daughters Alex and Scottie.

George Clooney plays the dad to perfection , considering himself as a 'back up parent' , being not very close to his daughters.

His anxiety and helplessness is executed brilliantly and forms the crux of the storyline. Matt accidentally comes to know about his wife's secret affair and all hell breaks loose.

Matt's inner strength and anger management is all there to see as he sets out in his pursuit of confronting the other man.

The Descendants is truly a rippling comedy with layers of relationship unifying at different moments of the film. George Clooney excels big time as a unaided parent in trying circumstances

The screenplay is superior and well adapted by Payne and his team. It is treat to watch a comedy yet have an emotional connect with the characters.

'A true vintage comedy with a pinch of salt'

Vicky Donor : by Shoojit Sircar


Vicky Donor marks the debutants in queue - Ayushmann Khurrana , Yami Gautam as the lead pair and John Abraham as the producer.

Veteran actor , Annu Kapoor gets a meaty role this time around and the director Shoojit Sircar's second outing after critically acclaimed Yahaan....

The trailers looked appealing at the outset for me , had very little expectations , though the taboo theme was interesting.

Vicky , played by Ayushmann is a 'vella' young guy who is totally dependent on her mother's income from a beauty parlour. Dolly plays his mother , a widow supporting her mother in law and Vicky.

The repartee between Mrs Arora and Biji is one of the high points of the film. Kamlesh Gill performs Biji , full of life and modern to the core , Mrs Arora , a hardworking mother , carrying heart on her sleeve.

Enter , Dr. Chadda , played by ever skillful Annu Kapoor. He is a renowned infertility specialist doctor , who has wealth of experience in sperm donation.

His clinic faces the heat from the clients in providing the best quality sperm - Sportsmen , Actors, Businessmen & Models.

The first half of the film is riding on the tongue in the cheek humour and witticism between Vicky and Dr. Chaddha. The doctor eyes huge clientele for his clinic as soon as he discovers the 'Aryan' putra sperm count of Vicky

Yami Gautam plays a Bengali banker and Vicky's love interest. The romantic track brings freshness to the fore and the pair does a fabulous job. She is beauty personified and is a competent actress for a debutant.

Rolling on the Floor Moments :

1. Chaddha convincing Vicky for the deed
2. Biji & Mrs Arora whisky tet-e-tet
3. Marriage meeting between the Arora & Roy family
4. Chaddha interviewing his clients.

For me , the dialogues never crossed the line , it was always on the EDGE!  

Best line from the film was the explanation by Dr Chaddha on the science of donation prevalent since the times of Mahabharat.  ~ The sauciness is brimming here!

Vicky played by Ayushmaan puts him in one of most promising talent around , his transition from small to big screen is silken!

His lingo in the film is so 'CHANDIGARH' , fuddu pan at its best ;)

Music is very pleasing to the ear and comes at the right portions of the movie. Paani Da is my personal favourite ~  composed , written and sung by Ayushmann!!!

Exceptional script on a forbidden path .. Kudos to the director & the writing team.

This Sperm trully hits the Bullseye!

Carnage : by Roman Polanski


Roman Polanski has been one my favourite directors because his body of work is truly versatile. 

Here he is with a black comedy - Carnage
The locale is utterly simplistic yet engaging.

When 2 grade-school boys get into a confrontation in the park that results in one boy hitting the other in the with a stick, their parents meet in a apartment to discuss the issue. 
The parents of the boy wielding the stick, Alan and Nancy Cowan (Waltz and Winslet), 
visit the home of Michael and Penelope Longstreet (Reilly and Foster), who are the parents of the boy who was struck badly.

How interesting!!?  It is an absolute genius of a film.

The couples are in the zone of mind bending wordplay! 
Civility to Verbal Volleys!
Funny , Intelligent , Witty , Repartee , Banter

Writing at its best!

Delhi Belly : by Abhinay Deo

So Aamir Khan Production is back with Delhi Belly for audiences to relish! and admire his knack of narrating stories ..

Ummm ..Errr .... Huhh Oh!  Are you sure this is 'A'  Bollywood Film . ?!

Delhi Belly is a story of three roomates played by Imran Khan , Vir Das and Kunnal Roy.

They are so under obligation and dilapidated state , with no rent to pay.

Tashi(Imran) is in a relationship with Sonia played by Shehnaaz but he in turn is besotted by journalist Menaka played by Poorna.

Arup (Vir) is stuck in a hopeless cartoonist job and is dumped by his girlfriend too.

Nitin is a lazy dimwit with knack of eating crap roadside stuff , causing the ever famous Delhi diarrhoea.

A Gangster played by Vijay Raaz is eager to receive the diamonds package which is to be delivered by Sonia. In the midst of all confusion , Nitin's stool samples reaches the gangster and the diamonds are at the doctor's clinic.


** Disclaimer : A Word of Caution **

  • The language used in the film is boorish and filthy to say the least , yet comical.
  • The content in the film is gross , which is not everybody's cup of tea.

A side splitting comedy of errors and disorientation follows which had me in an uncontrollable riot !

Notable Sequences :-

1. Vijay Raaz receives the stool samples and the exclamation!
2. Nitin empties the Orange juice cartons to the utter disgust of Arup
3. The Jewellery Shop heist!
4. Nitin's photo - operation
5. Vijay Raaz entering Vladmir's room using a service guy's help ..
6. The Hotel Room Shootout
7. Roommates interrogation by Vijay Raaz for the diamonds before the roof falls!

There is no dearth of mad cap stuff , the 'F' word  ,  left right center , smacking right in your face crudeness & toilet humour galore!

The crisp editing and the music uplifts the film. Ram Sampath has truly arrived with tracks like 'Bhaag DK' ,  'I Hate You' and 'Sweety'.

Performances:  All three guys are exceptional and girls are just Ok , but Vijay Raaz takes the cherry on top!

Delhi Belly is a shocking , footloose comic caper smudged with good shit!

Kung Fu Panda 2 : by Jennifer Yuh

Kung Fu Panda is one most comical characters to come out in animation history. I was itching for the sequel to release .. and here it goes ...

Jack Black voicing the over confident , hilarious , master of goof ups! , dragon warrior , 'Po'.

Its been thirty years , Panda 'Po' is protecting the valley of peace , as the chosen one along with the furious five.

Master Shifu is still in shock on Po's Kung Fu craft and reveals that Panda is yet to achieve inner peace.

Lord Shen is the heir of the peacock clan who decided to annul the entire Panda clan upon a prophecy that a "warrior of black and white" would destroy him.

Po has flashbacks of the fateful night when his parents abandoned him to a duck - Mr Ping in a rush to save from the atrocities of Shen.

China , is in danger under the wrath of Shen who wants to wipe out Kung Fu tradition using a special cannon weapon.

The Dragon Warrior and the Furious Five start their journey to save Kung Fu......

Animation is bigger and better , in particular the 3D sequences! The action is pure kick ass !

The supporting characters are equally strong in particular the Tigress (Angelina Jolie) and the villainous streak of Shen (Gary Oldman).

Po is adorable , clumsy & oozing with Kung Fu confidence , a true Jack Black tribute to the character.

Awesomeness is an addiction , My fist hungers for more , Panda!!!

Annie Hall : by Woody Allen

Alvy Singer , is one of the most crazy zany hysteric comic characters of all time conceptualized by none other than Woody Allen.

Make no mistake , this is a serious film (pun intended) by Woody's standard , still the genre is tagged as an American comedy film (1977) !

The film is about this comedian who is absolutely besotted by Annie Hall a vivacious and ambitious lady.

Alvy goes through the troughs and the crests of this dynamic relationship , and this makes the essence of the movie.

As the screenplay goes,  we are taken on a flashback ride of Alvy's childhood , to crosscut memories of Annie and Alvy's past.

Soon , the couple realize they are incompatible and have marked different personalities.

Annie moves to California to chase her dreams and Alvy continues play writing and standup acts.
Sooner he realizes his love has not diminished and meets Annie to convince her back.

Annie was the special one for Alvy , and the finale justifies the need for relationships and its complexities!

Woody 's best work till date , & the Academy revered it!

Phas Gaye Re Obama : by Subhash Kapoor

Phas Gaye Re Obama .. an intriguing title for a film will always generate a certain kind of buzz.

I have tremendous respect for actors from theater , and the ensemble in this film boasts of stalwarts.

The backdrop of the movie is against the meltdown originating in US.

Om Shashtri played by Rajat is badly hit by global recession and is on the brink of bankruptcy.

He is on the verge losing his home in a failed attempt to pay the mortgage.

With the goal of accumulating money to save himself and his family , Om travels to his ancestral home in India in a bid to sell it off.

The comedy of error follows with small time village goons capturing a supposedly pot of gold ( NRI , Om Shashtri ).

The performances from the ensemble is unexcelled. Manu Rishi brings the house down with his so un-english punches. Rajat is as usual effective & Amol Gupte is one notch up from Kaminey.

The film belongs to Sanjay Mishra who plays "Bhai Saab" , the leader of the goons gang. He is confused yet tyrant and sinks his teeth into the role.

The screenplay takes off in the second hour , laughter galore, crackling dialogues & consistently engaging!

Kudos to another debutant director 'Subhash Kapoor' ... a serious talent in filmmaking!

Band Baaja Baaraat : by Maneesh Sharma


"Band Baaja Baarat" ... I had very little expectations from this flick coming from the stable of YRF.

With a new filmmaker at the helm , a not so good looking debutant and a novice actress.
God knows , what was in store!!

The film kickstarts with Shruti Kakkar played by Anushka Sharma has a dream of having her wedding planning setup in upmarket Delhi locality with a high turnover business.

She convinces her parents to pursue her dream and in the process meets Bitto Sharma , a haryanvi college dropout, good-for-nothing , notorious chap.

In an attempt to avoid going back to his village to pursue agriculture farming , he decides to join Shruti in her 
 b(us) iness , as typically pronounced by Bittoo.

The premise of the film is fresh and the pair look charming to the core.
The screenplay in the first hour is simply outstanding with the protagnanists moving slowly and steadily towards their dream of managing weddings in Delhi's Sainik Farms for the elite.

I must say , fell in love with apni Dilli all over again ... the nuances shown by the director are copybook Dilliwalla's.

The music just uplifts the mood of the film with chartbusters like "Ainvayi Ainvayi" sung by Salim himself.

The performances are exemplary particulary from Anushka who plays the ambitious mitthi churi Shruti Kakkar , a typical  Dilli  Punjab Wali from Janakpuri. She effortlessly plays the character to the 'T'.

The surprise package was Ranveer Singh , a dream start to his career. He brings a smile with his charm and wit. With no acting background , Ranveer Singh is knee-deep into Bitto Sharma and brings out the best in him!

Maneesh Sharma should be given due credit for coming up with a real to reel concept & it deserves an applause.

Fultoo Paisa Vasool!

Enthiran (Robot) : by Shankar


Robot is one of the most ambitious film project executed in Indian cinema and all credit should be given to the visionary in Shankar , the director of Robot.

It is a sci-fi flick where superstar Rajnikant plays a dual role of a scientist and his creation , a super-sharp android.

Vaseegaran is into his ambitious task of creating a Human Android.
10 years hence , dedicated to his mission & ignoring his family & friends in particular his love interest played by Aishwarya , he creates Chitti.

Vaseegaran's ex-boss Bohra played by Danny is jealous of his creation .
Bohra rejects Chitti on the grounds of it being devoid of human emotions.

Dilligence pays off , Vasee re-creates Chitti with all emotions which backfires as the robot falls in love with Aishwarya.

Rajnikant has dealt with the double whammy with aplomb.
Chitti is never-seen-before-in-Indian-cinema piece of metal.
Aishwarya looks stunning and does her bit well.
Music by Rahman is run-of-the-mill
Lyrics are super funny

Stand Out Feature  
Special Effects and CGI used in this film is par excellence particularly at the culmination.
Great vision by Shankar!
Hail Superstar Rajni whose mass appeal rockets big time!

Peepli [Live] : by Anusha Rizvi


Peepli Live is a comical satire on the village life prevailing in India with the omnipresent farmer suicides.

It also delves into the 'Limelight & TRP'  hogging media fraternity and its workings through the eye-piece of the journalist turned director herself : Anusha Rizvi.

Aamir Khan Productions has been into subjects which are untapped and unexplored in Bollywood , & Peepli is one such pointer.

It is a simple story of a farmer named Natha who is out of money to support his family comprising of his brother played by Raghuvir Yadav , his wife and his ailing mother.

The elections are near in his district and he comes up with an idea of committing suicide to get compensation for his family from the Govt. and as a result save his land.

The film takes pot-shots and hilarious anecdotes upon the Media and the Politicians as the news of Natha's suicide leaks out.

The performances are exemplary with Natha played by Omkar Das Manikpuri, expressing with minimum interlocution.

Special mention to the supporting cast :
  • Budhia Das  (Raghuvir Yadav )  -  Brother in need , a brother indeed , quintessential , Mr Yadav.
  • Amma (Farookh Zafar)  -  Natha's ailing mother , brings the house down :) 
  • Dhaniya (Shalini Vatsa) - Her constant bickering sets the tone of the frustration of the family.
  • Nandita Malik (Malika Shenoy)  - Modelled on , Barkha Dutt , very convincing portrayal.

The length of the film is just over 1.5 Hour mark making it enjoyable ride till it lasts. Music scope is less but is gelled well into the screenplay.

A Nice , well documented and researched satire after a long time!

    Little Miss Sunshine : by Jonathan & Valerie


    Little Miss Sunshine is a 2006 comedy film starring lesser known ensemble of actors , with the screenplay as original it can be.

    This film is basically a road movie , talking about the adventures of a family who are on their way to a children beauty pageant by the same name as the film.

    The events during this journey in a Volkswagen Minibus , the family vehicle, makes the backdrop.

    The characters in the family are superbly etched out and the actors play their part to the T.

    Family Members :

    1. The over-worked mother.
    2. Her gay brother.
    3. Her husband , a motivation guru.
    4. Her mute son , who has vowed to not to speak until he becomes a Test Pilot.
    5. The foul-mouthed , grandfather who is a WW-II veteran.
    6. and the 7 year old , Olive , who has the confidence to win at the pageant.
    It is a hilarious ride with the family encountering setbacks on the way , which crack the audience up big time.

    Hysterical Moments:

    1. The Family stops at a Cafe for dessert
    2. The Volkswagen breaking down.
    3. Police Officer interrogation
    4. Hospital antics!
    5. Side splitting beauty pageant climax

    Indeed , the movie brings a smile to your face , with a sense of belongingness with the pedigree. 

    No wonder , it won the Oscar for original screenplay and the best supporting actor for Alkin playing the grandfather.

    Watch it for the madness of the Hoover Clan!

    Based on Chetan's novel "Five Point Someone"


    Madhavan plays Farhan , Sharman plays Raju & Aamir plays long lost friend "Rancho" , budding engineering students.


    Boman reprises his role as a professor "Viru Sahastrabuddhe" aka Virus with eccentricity written all over his demeanor.


     Kareena plays a geeky medical student , Pia , daughter of the professor.

     The support cast is quite extraordinary , special mention "Chatur", played by Omi , an American Actor ,
    The memory machine to the hilt !

    Music is the icing on the cake by Shantanu Moitra , Sonu Nigam is THE best in the country.

    Hirani is the reigning czar of 'feel-good cinema'

    Sequences to die for:

    • Chatur's speech
    • The culmination of the song 'Aal Izz Well'
    • Aamir's snivelling upon his pals conquest
    • Dilapidated Raju's 70's Home

    Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year : by Shimit Amin


    Rocket Singh ,  Salesman of the Year looked like a run of the mill story based on the promotional campaign done. I went with an open mind , Ranbir has had a rocking year so far , can he rocket himself to infinity & beyond was the question!?!

    Verdict : It is by far the film of 2009 ! That puts the record straight !

    Ranbir plays HP Bedi , who has just barely passed out of college and is ambitious enough to take the
    trodden path of a Sales Executive.

    The master combo of Jaideep Sahni & Shimit Amin (Chak De fame) have lent such realism into the script , 'make you believe' storytelling.

    HP's relationship with his grand-father played by Prem Chopra
    (who is a revelation ! ) gives heart-filled moments to cherish.

    Cut to the millieu of the film, AYS computer service company , where HP lands as a sales trainee.

    The nuances of a sales corp setup are splendid, just goes to show the authenticity of the film maker.

    The under hand dealings , the politics , work hard , party harder, doing a jig in office wear ,whiskey in plastic cups , bitching and what not!


    Seldom in a film , a romantic track is taken up so casually and thank god it keeps the film on track .
    Shazahn Padamsee makes an ok debut.

    Rocket Singh's second half really takes a sky high countdown with witty humour & boss bashing dialogues.


    The characters to die for :

    1. Koena as ambitious receptionist
    2. Lascivious Maintenance Guy , Giri
    3. Chote Lal Mishra , the office peon
    4. Nitin , the sales manager (Oh Raghu , a triplet sibling!)
    5. Puri , the schemer boss of AYS
    6. HP , sales trainee ( Ranbir plays it to the 'T')

    My favourites : Giri & Nitin

    All The Best : Fun Begins : by Rohit Shetty

    Rohit Shetty's 'Golmaal' series started with a bang and then fizzled out in between , here he is now with a fresh quintet....

    All the Best is yet another wacky comic ride which promises super fun-filled moments.

    The story revolves around two friends played by Ajay and Fardeen and their respective love interests. Fardeen plays a spendthrift younger sibling to Sanjay Dutt.

    In need of some quick money , the two friends decide to participate in a car race and in return have huge bets placed on themselves by the Leader of the Goons: 'Topu' played by Johhny Lever.

    Vir (Fardeen) and Prem (Ajay) fall flat in their plans , the point where Sanjay Dutt enters , the plot becomes a gamut of mistaken identities and comedy of errors.

    The plots & the sub-plots had me in splits after a long long time , the chemistry between Sanjay Dutt & Ajay Devgun is exemplary.

    Few Stomach Aching , Guffaw moments :

    1. Topu's unique style of communication ,
    Johnny Lever is back with a bang!!

    2. Prem's hilarious altercations with Dharam ( Sanjay)

    3. Pre-Interval entry of Mughda Godse
    to take the confusion to heights!!

    4. The bullet driven climax takes the cherry on top :)

    The noteworthy performances are from the veterans Sanjay Dutt and Johhny Lever.

    The leading ladies have supporting roles only. The supporting cast does a tremendous favor in keeping the audience in splits special mention : Yesteryear Pran's caricature and the South Indian maid.

    The Hangover : by Todd Phillips

    Hangover came into my city and I was curious ever since the hoopla ..

    Voila!!! ... It was delirium ...

    I went mad laughing literally...

    Todd Phillips had a few average endeavours in his movie making career with only Road Trip coming to my mind.. This time around he brings in a hilarity circus.

    The story is about a group of friends who wish to celebrate Doug's soon leaving bachelor status in Las Vegas ... the league is a relatively new bunch of actors and super comic timing is on display.

    Vegas brings on a roller coaster ride for the 3 friends on the morning after the night bash , where they find themselves in a complete disarray......... opened up a 'Can of Worms' :

    1. DOUG's missing!!
    2. Tiger is in their washroom
    3. A Baby is in the closet
    4. One of them has lost his tooth
    5. One of them has got married to a whore
    6. Condom lying in their Merc
    7. A Chinese gagged at the back of the Merc

    ... and many more surprises in store ...

    The characters of the bunch is well-crafted from a Dentist to a Schoolteacher and a socially awkward Zach takes the cherry on top !

    The chintzy dialogues and the x-Rated punches made me to crack-up and howl as if N2O had its extreme effects.

    Shower all praise to the cheesiest comedy in a long long time !

    Monsters , Inc. : by Peter Docter

    Pixar has always amazed me with their animation histrinoics , and I was surprised to miss Monsters, Inc earlier in 2001.

    Luckily got hold of the rip and was instantly spellbound....

    Monsters, Inc. is about this big enterprise , having monsters as its employees , with the vision of sapping as much energy as they can for the town of Monstrapolis.

    The mechanism to do so is the USP of the movie. The Monsters scare children and collect their screams to the generate the power.

    The concept simply blew me away , Pixar has proven it time and again.

    The characterization is as always is unique and spot on. The milieu and the animation lends the backbone of the flick.

    Mike Wazowski & James P. Sullivan (the top scarer of Monsters, Inc.) make an adorable pair and bring the house down on many instances in the movie.

    "We scare because We care" .... Go for it .....


    P.S : But for me the best pixar animation movie still is "Wall-E" till I get to see the
    Peter Docter's next " UP " and I am eager to catch it soon.
