Bahubali" doesn't meet "RRR" standards, but few things would. Made a few years earlier, this film looks much cheaper -- some of the CGI is so bad that the movie almost looks like a video game cut scene at times. And the actors just don't hold the screen the way the two leads in "RRR" did. It started to really lose me toward the end, during a loooong battle scene that feels interminable and made my eyes start to glaze over. If I'd known going in that what starts as a flashback wouldn't so much be a flashback as the actual real story of the movie, I would have been prepared. But as it is, the transition into a whole different story at the mid-way point really threw me and killed what momentum the film had been building.

I was in pieces, it fixed me.

Don 2 is perhaps the best Christmas film in the last 5 years. It's slick,stylish and high on acting and visual effects. When it's SRK and Farhan together, miracles are bound to happen and it well happens for Don 2 is the best Christmas gift that Bollywood could offer and it is definitely an emblem of the acting skills of SRK whose kingship is proved. ACTING: SRK is the man who reigns supreme in this film and leaves a strong impression on the audiences mind with his stellar performance. His smile, dialogue delivery and every expression deserves a bow. Priyanka looked beautiful and does well in the second half. Her chemistry with SRK is electrifying. She deserves an applause for well balancing herself as a woman in love and hatred with the same man. Boman Irani is excellent as ever and in negative role he is always a treat to watch. Kunak Kapoor is impressive and Lara Dutta looks gorgeous. Hrithik gives a stunning performance in his cameo. His ball dance withPriyanka was a visual delight.

The film is about relationships in family, about loving your parents and your family, about pride, values and regret. The well defined and written characters are used to create and present all these qualities. Even the least emotional scenes are accompanied by orchestrated violins, heavy piano and strikingly sad pictures on-screen. The film shows both the bright and dark sides of happy families, and while it never breaks new ground, never looks totally authentic, it is always entertaining in spite of its flaws. It depicts both the Indian traditional world and the western modern world and tries to bring them together in many instances.
Some of the film's too emotional scenes could have been better edited and partly cut. The cinematography is good, the sets are extremely lavish, and the narrative is effectively laden with numerous songs and many memorable moments of comedy and drama. The comedy provides great relief and lightens the otherwise more-than-enough drama, and the music is extraordinary. My favourite song is "Suraj Hua Maddham", a greatly melodious number wonderfully performed by Sonu Nigam and Alka Yagnik and extremely beautifully shot across some breathtaking locations. Needless to say, the chemistry between the two leads, Shahrukh Khan and Kajol, is as electrifying as ever.

I loved this film ! It excels at what it goes for, that being a romantic story between a girl and a boy mixed with some fantasy. My only complaints are mainly subjective but I'll still bring them up (spoilers) :
I think the ending went on for a bit too long, it could have gotten to the point faster and maybe spent more time on the aftermath.
I think the way Hinode finds out about the cat/human transformation is a bit underwhelming, the girl turning into a cat is the main plot point and you're waiting to see the payoff but it's not anything special.
Their love is a bit "random"
Now it's totally normal to have crushes at their age, I'm mostly talking about the ending when Hinode confesses his love for Miyo. I assume he has always loved her someway somewhere, but they don't ever hint to it until the end so it mostly comes out of nowhere.
Now what i loved the most !
The character's personalities and attention to growth
At first Miyo seems pretty basic, but throughout the film you learn about her and her struggles, she acts very childish but she's quite mature, she is super lovable especially as a cat ! I love the scene when she snaps at her family, you can really feel for her and it's really sad. Same goes for the other characters.

(sport/drama)
Too much drama in a sport movie, they just kept on stretching the scenes which were unnecessary. Actually there was only one scene which will give u the motivation,the adrenaline rush you expect from a fight movie. They could have gone Easy on the emotional part of the movie.
The cast has done wonders in making this movie good.
Overall above average.
Amir Khan and Rani mukherjee acting was superb, and Siddharth's acting was also very good, he needs to do more movies like this. The plot was also good, if you're looking for a 'feel good' film, this is not it, it's more sad. Only thing I did not like was the fighting scenes, it was too inauthentic! These inexperienced brothers destroying experienced international fighters with one punch? C'mon! But I would still recommend it!

The story is an young generation facing problem in her school for lying about losing her virginity. Its actually a very serious topic. But the way they show the movie is very funny and cool. They carry the movie with funny acting, awesome dialogue, teen culture. Its full of fun, fresh, feel good movie. Emma's acting superb. Director did a very good job of making this movie. Worth to watch 1&half hour. It won't disappoint u. I guarantee you that. I give 5* for this fun movie.

Wonderful

As someone who's played every Uncharted game multiple times and gotten 100% completion in each of them, I can absolutely say that this was a fantastic movie adaptation of the series! Tom Holland hit all the right beats of Nathan's personality. I was honestly a bit skeptical if he could do it at first, but he managed to bring Nate's charm, wit, humor and heart in a way that was all his own. It really felt like it was Tom Holland's Nathan Drake without it feeling like a cheap impression and I cannot wait to see more of him in the future! Mark Wahlberg did a pretty good job with Sully too and he did a nice job of showing off his seasoned, yet deeply caring personality. Jimmi livingstone also did a fantastic job and all of the twists and turns of her character were handled perfectly! The remainder of the cast also did a pretty good job with their roles as well.
In terms of the story, they really nailed that Uncharted feel. The globe-trotting, treasure hunting feel was persistent throughout the whole movie and it honestly felt like something out of the game. Even the slower moments of solving puzzles and unraveling the mystery of where to go next was translated surprisingly well! The action was also awesome! It had that high energy feel and I particularly like how they showed off Nate's more improvisational side to his combat. As for the set pieces, they were incredible! The mix of old and new set pieces were really great to see and they really nailed the energy and intensity that you would traditionally feel if you were playing through them in the games.

The Buckingham Murders

Amazing movie
5 December 2023
An intelligent and edge of the seat murder mystery ,a little underwhelming climax but overall the film is a delightful watch, Jaideep Ahlawat has delivered mind boggling performance , he elevates the film to the next level. The screenplay is tight and keeps you engrossed throughout with curiosity , Kareena Kapoor has been equally rocking , rukku nahar excels in his role and is as natural as possible . The characterisation of roles in the film is wonderful . The way math & logic is stitched to this mystery & plot is a genius work . Cinematography is woow in the spectacle treat of a place Kalimpong . All and all this film delivers dece
"In the beginning, as the credits rolled and the plot unfolded, everything seemed crystal clear, almost predictable. But as the movie took its twists and turns, it was as if a veil was lifted from my eyes. What I thought I understood at first was merely a mirage, and the real truth was right there in plain sight. It's a common thread of how we often get caught up in the teacher's answer, failing to explore alternative solutions, much like the characters in this cinematic gem.
Bollywood needs more of these mind-bending narratives that challenge our perspectives. The movie in question, starring the powerhouse trio of Kareena Kapoor, exemplifies excellence in storytelling. It's a rollercoaster of emotions, where each actor brings their character to life so convincingly that you forget you're watching a movie.
Kudos to the entire team - the actors, the director, and everyone behind the scenes who made this cinematic masterpiece possible. This is the kind of film that leaves you pondering long after the credits have rolled, and that, my friends, is the mark of a truly exceptional movie."

Beautiful love story
5 December 2023
There are many strong and beautiful words used and can be used to describe your movie. I loved it. Sweet, shining, nostalgic and yet gripping, in touch with reality. This movie gives a feeling of have seen something beautiful today. Somewhere life becomes richer in experience. It's just a love story but said so impeccably that it becomes dignified in itself. Music is flawless and so is acting. I have always liked shahrukh and preety and this was wonderful watching them together. Excellent work. Talent is obvious. It has the power to keep you glued and captivated. Brimming with love and pain at the same time, sometimes it becomes more than a movie, more than characters. I am sure people will remember it for a long long time.

I watched this when I was in college and was a big fan. But when I watched this again as a grown up, the horrors of partition shown gave me goosebumps.
Though the movie is full of hypermasculine dialogues, this will still remain an iconic classic for us, especially Salman Khan acting I wonder what happened to Kareena kapoor who was so good in this movie. The songs will always be loved through ages.the character of munni so brilliant done .
The writers keep balance between love & patriotism. I can't imagine what people had to face during the partition. And this movie successfully show that trauma.
Fantastic movie... Today I have watched this movie. With such an amazing story by the Director of the film and such a powerful star cast,

Well i watched the whole movie today being a south indian i always cherished watching real Bollywood movies made in 2013's like jawani diwani
I heard songs and had a glimpse of story line but after watching whole movie i realized that its a story of two people who had different view for life.
This movie stand in the list of my favorite movies. Nice, Wonderful, Fabulous, Awesome movie. I watched this movie 5 times but I never bored till now.
I can watch it anyday and any of every second. I don't know if people understood the purity of the film when it was first released though serious, this is my all time favourite forever will be. I can't find a flaw or waste my time on that because of it being impossible.
The best thing about this movie is it's grip on audience. The movie hasn't given even a single minute where the attention and eyes get off.
