Arjun Kapoor still needs to work hard. He is average in some scenes.

Rishi Kapoor is outstanding in his role. He gave a spectacular performance.

Jackie Shroff done full justice to his role. He is good in movie.

Prithviraj is good in movie.

Verdict:-

On the whole, AURANGZEB has a great premise, but great plots don't. This one's way too lengthy and mediocre [second hour] to leave any kind of an impression whatsoever. It's a one time watch movie, don't go with high expectations.

The party's host, a Russian Don - Saif Ali Khan (Boris), is a self-proclaimed zombie-hunter. And there begins the adventure, after the party goes horribly wrong... All of a sudden, they are accosted by zombies!

Movie Review:

 

                         So who's a zombie? For some it's a sleep-derived person who walks around as if in a trance. For others, it's a soulless creature who can be revived by witchcraft. But in Krishna D K and Raj Nidimoru's Go Goa Gone, the zombies are some interesting creatures who've overdosed on a drug that is said to be more dangerous than MDMA, or Ecstasy as most of us know it. And now these living people have turned into a brain-dead lot who know nothing but hunger.

So where do you find these zombies. Wait. Let's start at the beginning. Three fun-seeking friends—Kunal Khemu(Hardik), Vir Das(Luv) and Anand Tiwari(Bunny) join Puja Gupta(Luna) at a rave party in Goa. Their host is a Russian Don—Saif Ali Khan(Boris). The night is young; the company vivacious. Drinks are aplenty and the drugs lethal. As the party reaches a crescendo, the friends find themselves enthralled. Alas, there's a price to be paid. Each of the three friends wakes up the next morning `wasted' and in fairly interesting company. They have a zombie or two in their vicinity. Scared out of their wits, the three friends and their girlfriend, Luna, run for their lives. But it isn't that easy. The island is now home to a large group of fast-mutliplying zombies, who are eager to make these human-beings `meat' for their insatiable appetite. Boris, their knight-in-shining-armour attempts to rescue them but the zombies are not easy to shake off. As the part hilarious, part scary adventure continues, you find yourself laughing aloud with the three boys and their wisecracks. And you also find yourself scared shitless of the zombies who keep cropping up unannounced in their creepy avatar.

Go Goa Gone is positively different from anything you seen before. And for the young and restless(tattooed, ring-pierced, rave-party enthusiasts) or even those who like whacked-out fun, it's a great ride. With easy performances from Kunal, Saif, Vir and Anand and the crackerjack dialogue, the film will keep you in splits for the most part. What is a little tiring though,is the pace of the zombies, who are a bit too monotonous. Sachin-Jigar's Babaji ki booti adds to the mood, almost tempting you to light up and lie back. The shores of Goa and Mauritius seem enticing enough. However some of the situations in GGG are repititive. Hence, the laughs that were coming spontaneously till a point become a bit forced at some juncture.

Verdict : Go Goa Gone is funny, witty, amusing, crazy and thoroughly engaging. And yes, it's definitely a one-time watch.

Shootout At Wadala

cast: Anil Kapoor, John Abraham, Kangana Ranaut, Manoj Bajpayee, Sonu Sood and Tusshar Kapoor

Direction: Sanjay Gupta

Genre: Crime

Duration: 2 hours 30 minutes

Story:: A conscientious college student is wrongly accused of murder. Post his jail break, he attempts to take over the Mumbai mafia. Does he succeed? Or does he succumb to the law?

Movie Review:Let me also clarify, Shootout At Wadala is no ways any sequel to Shootout At Lokhandwala (2007) which was produced by Sanjay Gupta and Ekta Kapoor.This one is a fresh film with a fresh plot. The only common relative factor here is the notorious gangster Dawood Ibrahim Kaskar (Name changed to 'Dilawar Imtiyaz Haskar'). Manya Surve (John Abraham) is about to face life imprisonment for a crime which he has not committed. In jail, He befriends with Sheikh Munir (Tusshar) and flees from the prison to form a new gang. Manya, a young-dangerous and cheeky gangster who dared to break rules and threaten the supremacy of the biggies including Dilawar Imtiyaz Haskar (Sonu Sood) and his brother Zubair Imtiyaz Haskar (Manoj Bajpayee) . Manya becomes a menace to the cop ACP Ishaque Bagwan (Anil Kapoor). Both the brothers Dilawar and Zubair wants Manya dead at any cost, On the other hand ACP Ishaque Bagwan will show no mercy to finish what Manya has started. 

Performances:John Abraham is tremendous as Manya Surve. At many points, John makes you believe that no one could have done justice to the character of Manya Surve like he did.

Anil Kapoor is electrifying as ACP Ishaque Bagwan. He delivers all his lines with the immense shock value which is required on a no nonsense Police Officer. 

Manoj Bajpayee Is Outstanding in His Small Roll. He Is Very Effective In Dialog delivery.

 Sonu Sood surprises you with his Dawood Ibrahim act. 

Tusshar is very good as Manya's friend Sheikh Munir. 

Rest of the cast which includes Kangana,Ronit Roy, Mahesh Manjerekar, Jackie Shroff and Ranjeet are equally good. 

Verdict-Shootout At Wadala is fast, pulse-pounding and racy at the same time. With powerful performances by magnificent stars, The film is a knock-out action thriller!You may not like this film if don't have the appetite for blood and gore.
