Latest Movies

Only thing is I am too bored to create link to these movies today.

1. Ice Age: The Meltdown

Funny at times. Usual complaint (first part was better). A piecewise continuous story. Worth a matinee ticket. Will buy DVD to complete the collection.

2. In America

Borrowed from the local library. Simple story but excellent performances by the two girls. Packs a powerful punch.

3. Cinderella

Watched it finally. The Disney 2-D animation. Had not watched it so far wondering how different it could be. A smooth movie that will give you a nice dose of laughter too.
Borrow from library if you can.

4. Iqbal

A sleek movie. Typical low budget. Relies heavily on good performances and direction and editing. A simple story well told.

5. Filmfare awards '06 and Zee Cine Awards '06

I know not a movie, but we watched these. I have seen like 3 bollywood award shows in last six years and two of them were in last two days. So some comments-

o Karan Johar is pretty good at compering a show.
o Madhuri Dixit still is the best dancer.
o Aishwarya Rai should stick to paper ads where she does not need to talk/laugh/act.
o They should stop showing Rekha's expressions at the slightest mention of Amitabh's name.
o Black won way too many awards. I do not feel like watching the movie now as I got an overdose of Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
o Preity Zinta has a horrible memory. She had to call one name, that of Mauritius' PM but looked at her palm twice while saying his name and it was not a full form of VVS Laxman.
o Whoever that kid in Black is, Ayesha something, single handedly stereotyped all NRI kids by thanking everybody by their first name including Amitabh Bachchan.

And if you can access google video,

Why I do not want to ride a motorcycle (at least till I forget this)
