Pink Panther 2

The curiosity factor surrounding the much awaited release of Pink Panther 2 was undoubtedly Aishwarya Rai's performance. Directed by Harald Zwart, the other cast includes Alfred Molina (Spider-Man 2) and Andy Garcia (Ocean's 11, 12, 13), Lily Tomlin (Austin Powers) Jean Reno (Ronin, Da Vinci Code) once again as Ponton Clouseau's right hand man and John Cleese as Chief Inspector Dreyfus.

Now coming to the nitty-gritty, Mrs Rai Bachchan manages a fairly decent performance throughout the film, though she hardly has many dialogues in the film. For all Aishwarya's fans She is a delight to watch in Pink Panther 2. She plays the character of Sonia, glamorous and yet somewhat awkward, as she tries her best to seduce the crazy detective.

Bundled with all the outlandish mishaps, The Pink Panther 2 is outrageously funny at times with a whole lot of slapstick motions tossed in. At the same time one wonders – just how much is too much! This movie is truly over the top, with some not so digestible elements plucked in.

Although the movie starts of well and on a funny note, yet unable to maintain any surprises till the end, it indeed gets predictable and foreseen. It's nothing compared to the Peter Sellers originals, of course, it's still mediocre, at least better than its predecessor.

The screenplay, which passed through many hands on its way to achieving mass-market generousness, is ultimately credited to three people: Martin himself (listed third) and Scott Neustadter and Michael H Webe. Martin's flair for exuberant physical goofiness remains intact; he still has that twinkle in his eye that reminds you of the young silver-haired man with "happy feet."

The lack of imagination and inspiration is stunning. There are so many dead spots in the script that you wonder if some of the onset bloopers couldn't have been substituted in their place.Despite a rather extensive publicity campaign, a predominantly French setting, its hero being a French detective and the presence of one of France's most popular actors in the cast, the film was a huge commercial failure in France, lasting merely one week in most major multiplexes.

THE MASK

Cover of "The Mask (New Line Platinum Ser...Cover of The Mask (New Line Platinum Series)


Jim Carrey (Stanley) is a bank employee, who is not doing so well in life, career and off course, his romantic interests are ditching him too. In short nothing great is happening in his mediocre life. He only can tell his concerns to his dog (Milo) and his office buddy Charlie. Now to add some spice there is Cameron Diaz who is a singer in a club owned by a gangster (Peter Greene) who wants to raise his powers beyond his boss. Peter Greene sends his girlfriend (Cameron Diaz) to the bank to set a secret camera in order to make a plan a robbery.
On one fateful night Jim Carrey finds one weird looking mask and take it to home, and the rollercoaster fun begins the moment he wears the mask for the first time. His power knows no bound; he can turn things around now and do the all kind of tricks. He robs the bank before the gangster could do it, gets them all arrested in a comical sequence and emerged as a hero. At the end of the movie he throws the mask away to lead his normal life.
Jim Carrey has done an excellent job in the movie, his facial expression were point of discussion after the release that how much he can flex his face. Also it was launch pad movie for Cameron Diaz and was fairly noticed. The mask is highly enjoyable and still being aired on TV. It is still a cult among kids and even adults love to watch it.

Kung-Fu Hustle



Kung-Fu Hustle was released in 2004, It was a instant success. Loved by audience and critically acclaimed too. The movie pays tribute to the Chinese wuxia genre which is hugely based on martial arts. Kung-Fu Hustle is inundated with serious situations and comic plots. In the backdrop of Shanghai in 1930s, it is a story of Chow, who is trying to find his own identity. He played a petty criminal who is trying to join the city's most powerful and notorious gang. The use of visual effects has been hugely appreciated and the animated style of the movie along with traditional Chinese music proved as eminent feature.
The film was released on 23 December 2004. It became the highest grossing film in the history of Hong Kong, and in the United States also it grossed highest revenue as foreign language film in 2005.The movie is unique in many ways, be it action or comedy or the way the movie proceeds.
There are many scenes where you can’t help but laugh like a kid. The few among the best according to me are as follows:
The Chasing scene where Chow is being chased by the Lady, owner of the Society.
When Chow and his friend tries to kill the Lady.
Chow invites the tenants for a one to one fight.
His encounter with the ultimate master.
Five out of Five stars from my side.

Sin City



The film is mainly based on three of Miller's fiction novel. The Hard Goodbye focuses on a raw-muscle man who goes on a deadly rampage in search of his lover’s killer. The Big Fat Kill focuses on a street war held between a group of prostitutes and a series of mercenaries; and That Yellow Bastard focuses on a police officer who is on verge to take retirement. On his last service day he protects a young woman from a absurdly disfigured serial killer. This movie stars Bruce Willis, Jessica Alba, Clive Owen, Devon Aoki, Alexis Bledel, Michael Clarke Duncan, Rosario Dawson, Benicio del Toro, Michael Madsen, Powers Boothe, Josh Hartnett, Jaime King, Brittany Murphy, Mickey Rourke, Nick Stahl, Elijah Wood and Rutger Hauer, among others.
Sin City opened to wide critical and commercial success, gathering particular recognition for the film's unique coloring process, which rendered most of the film in black and white but retained or added coloring for select objects. The film was screened at the 2005 Cannes Film Festival in-competition and won the Technical Grand Prize for the film's "visual shaping".
Movie scores on the way its been picturised.The dialogues are just amazing. My few favorites are from That Yellow Bastard.

The Gods Must be crazy 1

The Gods Must be crazy 1

Totally Crazy and completely hilarious. This movie is utterly superb. the characterization, story, screenplay, dialogues and every part of it is so perfect. The film starts as a documentary and converts in a comedy as it progresses.
Three stories from different places merged into one plot.
1. In the lethal desert of Kalahari the only human species is the bushman, simple and innocent. Far away from any of the mean sides of human being. They don’t have any complications in life whatsoever. They believe in god in such a way like the first human being on the earth used to do. They don’t have any sense of possession, jealousy, cunningness and oblivious to the concept of ownership. THEY THANK GOD FOR THEIR FOOD, water etc. Things changed on one fine day when something falls from the sky. a coke bottle. Threw from the sky by a ignorant pilot. They have never seen a thing like that.and everybody finds it so precious that start fighting for it. Bushmen considered it as evil and decide to throw it away at end of the world. One of the Bushmen (Xi, sounds as kie) starts off his journey to find the end of the earth so they can get rid of the evil thing (The Coca-cola bottle).this led to the exposure of modern civilization for xi. And the interpretation in his own sense is beautifully crafted.
2. A notorious Terrorist tries to kill the president but he survives and now the government is after the terrorists, while on flee he kidnaps a schoolteacher and her pupils in order to make an attempt for escape.
3. Then there is a biologist who is a gentleman but things go out of his mind and he acts in a stupidest manner whenever he is with the schoolteacher.
Now the combination of the journey of a bushman to the end of the earth to destroy a Coca-Cola bottle, the romance between a bumbling scientist and a schoolteacher, and a band of guerrillas on the run makes it perfect laughter dose.
A complete family entertainer I would say. Go for it.

BRUCE ALMIGHTY

BRUCE ALMIGHTY

What if you were god? What would you do? Would you be happy than ever or more gloomy your life would be.
I have got the power as the soundtrack suggests.
The film follows Bruce Nolan (Jim Carrey), a TV reporter who seeks a promotion and a better life overall, But he just found himself a little unlucky whatever he does. After a series of bad incidents, Nolan complains that God can't do His job properly. He is surprised when he is met by God himself and granted his powers for a week to see if he can do a better job.
And fun and frustration begins. Now Bruce has the power to change the world, to fix all the issues.
Bruce receives million prayers and complains a day from all over the world he starts to realize how tough the job is. He tries to respond properly to the task he is assigned for, and finally realizes that God's powers are best left for God to handle and asks God to take control of his life. Bruce met with an accident and saved by paramedics while his soul is was in heaven with god (Morgan Freeman). He starts his life on a positive note again and solves his problems as a normal human being. Movie leaves you with a light feeling a happy heart and yes, on the positive side of life.
Jim Carrey has done justice to his role, as the protagonist Bruce Nolan. He has the perfect expression as a man with anger with frustration or wickedness as the movie progresses. Morgan Freeman as God is pleasant as always. Jennifer Aniston is charming.
Movie was a blockbuster all the way on box office.
