PERFORMANCES:-
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.

Sasheh Aagha is average in her first 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.

Go Goa Gone

 
Starring : Saif Ali Khan, Kunal Khemu, Vir Das, Anand Tiwari, Puja Gupta, Suparn Verma, Krishna DK, Soha Ali Khan, Pitobash Tripathy 



Director :
Krishna D.K and Raj Nidimoru
Music :
Sachin, Jigar
Lyrics :
Priya Panchal, Amitabh Bhattacharya
Genre:                    Comedy
Duration:              1 hour 37 minutes

Story:           The story of Go Goa Gone revolves around the two dope heads Hardik (Kunal Khemu) and Luv (Vir Das), who are off for a business trip at Goa. This is when Luv comes across a free-spirited girl, Luna (Puja Gupta) who casually invites them to an exclusive underground rave party on a remote island. 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

DirectionSanjay 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.

Aashiqui 2

        
 
 
 
 
Name: Aashiqui 2
Cast: Aditya Roy Kapur, Shraddha Kapoor
Direction: Mohit Suri
Genre: Romance
Duration: 2 hours 13 minutes
 
Story:- A fading singing sensation finds new purpose in life when he falls in love with a talented singing aspirant. But the blitzkrieg of stardom makes, breaks and shakes their love story.

Movie Review:- He sings. She sings. He, for his stardom. She, for her supper. And the twain meet. In a restrobar, where she croons and he swoons. And Aashiqui is born. Again! Retelling the celebrity story that stardom ain't an easy ride. It sometimes vrooms and then goes sputter, the fuel of celebdom often running out. Like Rahul Jaykar (Aditya) discovers; once basking in a 'rockstar' like status, but soon losing it to alcohol, addiction and self-deprecation. But when he meets budding singer Aarohi (Shraddha), his heart finds a new beat and his crumbling life finds a cause. He trains her to become the Nightingale of India; she shines while he stays her shadow; sometimes sober, mostly stoned. The real lyric of this story is their romance, pulsating with passion and intensity - on high notes and 'higher spirits'.

Suri's musical love story doesn't bear much semblance to the original 'Aashiqui'; instead it finds its own rhythm. He pitches the story with old-world romance, high-drama and well-crafted heart-breaking moments. Aarohi's character is endearing and Rahul stays 'bottled' (like 'Devdas' with a cause), with sudden outbursts. The story slows down in parts and the climax might seem unreal to many, but maybe a 'fix' for die-hard aashiqs.

Aditya is likeable in mushy moments, he shows intensity in flashes but sometimes loses grip. A mature role like this demands a lot, nonetheless, it's a good effort. Shraddha looks innocently beautiful. Letting her emotions play out brilliantly in high-strung scenes with supreme confidence. This is a talent to look out for. The jodi's palpable chemistry heightens the drama. The music is the strongest supporting cast, with captivating tunes like Tum Hi Ho (Arijit Singh), Sunn Raha Hai (Ankit Tiwari) and Bhula Dena (Mustafa Zahid) pouring more passion in to the story.

This could be good soup for the lovers' soul - with a dash of old-world flavour.

Ek Thi Daayan

Movie: Ek Thi Daayan
Cast: Emraan Hashmi, Kalki Koechlin, Konkona Sen Sharma, Huma Qureshi
Direction: Kannan Iyer
Genre: Thriller,horrer
Plot:  A magician (Emraan) with a disturbing past is haunted

Story: Emraan Hashmi is cast as Bobo the magician, whose life seems to be falling apart. Although he has a sweet girlfriend (Huma Qureshi) and a seemingly content life, he can't rid himself of hallucinations that continually plague him.
Psychiatric help involves regression hypnosis. As Bobo's past comes alive through his memories, we get to know of his discomfort as a child over his stepmother (Konkona Sen Sharma). He talks of a daayan that had wrecked their home. When the charming Lisa Dutt (Kalki Koechlin), enters his life, Bobo is somehow convinced she could be the daayan from the past.
Screenplay: The build-up of the script (Vishal and Mukul Sharma) in the first half is superb. Smart twists prop the fear factor to constantly tease you. It all leaves a hint that Bobo's tale is not as simple as it originally seemed. Director Iyer throws in an underplayed love track between Emraan and Huma to balance out the chills.
Post-interval, though, the film starts losing pace. While the impish twist at the end is a winner, it unfolds only after a lazy second half has tested your patience. What works for the film, though, is its intention. It isn't peddling superstitious. Rather, Iyer delves into the recesses of the human mind to craft a dark thriller that regales
.
Performence::
Emraan Hashmi: Emraan Hashmi is superb in the movie.he done full justice to his role in the movie.
Huma Qureshi:   Huma Qureshi is also enjoy her role in the movie& acted well.
Kalki Koechlin:  Kalki Koechlin worked like a perfect actress
Konkona Sen Sharma: Konkona Sen Sharma is extraordinary in the movie.she is superb in her role

Brief Description: First Half Of The Movie Is Good,Second Half Is Slow&Losing Pace,And Performence Of All The Actors&Actress is Outstanding.....

Ratings:-

 
              3 stars out of five...........

Verdict:-
 Once the element of shock and surprise are out of the equation in the first half, the film falls into a predictable pattern.
Its a one time watch movie...........

COMMANDO

COMMANDO




Cast: Vidyut Jammwal, Pooja Chopra, Jaideep Ahlawat
Direction: Dilip Ghosh
Genre: Action
Duration: 2 hours 4 minutes


Story: A girl on the run bumps into a commando from the Indian army. Does he manage to rescue her from the dangerous, psychotic hoodlums who are chasing her?


Movie Review: Dilip Ghosh's Commando has a linear narrative. Set in North India, the story can even be termed archaic. It's got a hero, a heroine and a villain. Small-town goon AK-74(Jaideep Ahlawat) is irresistibly drawn to the local, fire-brand beauty Simrit Kaur(Pooja Chopra). When she resists, the bad man threatens her. She elopes to escape his advances and naturally, she's chased by AK's band of baddies. Fate smiles on her when she accidentally bumps into Karanveer Dogra(Vidyut Jammwal); a commando; so well-trained in guerrilla warfare; he can be rightly called a one man army.


The action shifts to the forests. The commando and the girl break into a run with the villains, local forest officials and killer dogs hot in pursuit. From here on, the film picks up tempo. Enter South African action director Franz Sphilhaus. The director hands over his hero Vidyut to him and the combination is pure magic. Perhaps one of India's best martial arts exponents (at least in the films); Vidyut is terrific.


With the stealth and dexterity of a jungle cat, this commando goes for the kill. For the first time in eons, the action scenes are totally convincing...and you can digest the fact that one man can kill them all and come back alone. If you are an action junkie and if you have peaked on Sylvester Stallone's Rambo-series, then our desi Commando, is what you will term paisa-vasool entertainment. The adrenaline rush stays with you, long after the lights come on.

Vidyut Jammwal is in top form, doing full justice to the job at hand.
Pooja Chopra (Femina Miss India-2009) is super-confident in her film debut and a welcome addition to Bollywood's heroines.
One should also put in a couple of lines of praise for Jaideep Ahlawat, who has made the transition from a small part in the art-house Gangs of Wasseypur to the big-time Bollywood baddie.

Ratings:-

We give it 3 out of 5 stars.............


Verdict:-


If you want to see a movie then it is a watchable and

paisavasul movie.
