Sweet, uplifting, and very very funny, you'll love this Mall Cop.
Paul Blart (Kevin James) is a big-hearted, and just plain big, mall security guard whose make-or-break day arrives on Black Friday when Xtreme criminals take over his mall to steal credit card codes. Blart not only has an opportunity to foil the plot, but to save his much-too-sexy-for-him flame, Amy from the hair extension kio
I always believe that moviegoers should expect what they will get before watching a movie. Some might turn out to be better than the expectations, some are worse. Transporter 3 gave me exactly what I’d been expecting for.
Actually what did I expect from Transporter 3? Well, the fact is it’s an action movie, a sequel, [...]
Most of you should know that The Day the Earth Stood Still is a remake of a 1951 film of the same name. So just a head's up for everyone that our review is in no way a comparison of the old one and the new one. Sad to say, both of us have not seen the original film. So more or less, our review is an unbiased look into a new film. With that said let us move on to the review. This film has been foll
Actually how is Alien supposed to be? Evil and hostile? Nice and friendly? Or maybe they have all of those aspects of characters. Just like us.

Do Aditya Chopra and Shahrukh Khan recreate the DDLJ magic? Well, not really!
The story is of Surender Sahni (Shahrukh Khan), a middle class simple living government employee, who gets married to a bubby girl Tani (Anushka Sharma).
Since Tani is not in love with Surender, he decides to get a makeover and appears in front [...]
There is a clean look to this film; the comedy and the dialogues have no double meaning, a relief when you know every writer wants to cash in on 'sexual innuendos'. The acting is never 'over-the-top' say for a few actors and the timing in most scenes is just perfect. Yet, there is that extra something that takes the fizz out of this Priyadarshan flick. And it is easy to lay your finger on this irr
The Blair Witch Project, Cloverfield and Quarantine all have one thing in common: they all have that sick-inducing and gut-wrenching shaky camera technique. You know, when the whole movie is on the perspective of a camera/cameraman the whole time. Nothing screams "HURL!" with a camera that feels like it does not know the words "cooperate" and "stay". But moving on, we are really excited about this

It was August 30, 2008. It was hot, humid yet comforting as the wind slowly cooled things off. Thousands upon thousands lined up, waited, standing and cheered as a Countdown Timer showed up on screen. And as the clock slowly flickered to the final seconds before lift off, people jumped, screamed and tears fell from their eyes as the Eraserheads were back at last. Yes, as you may all know it was th
Who remembers the "superhero" movie, The Underdog? Just like The Wild which we talked about a few reviews ago, The Underdog is just a flopper and never was and never will be a great film. Hell, no one could even remember it except for us. Will Bolt be just thunder and no lightning or will it be one of the sleeper hits this holiday season?Bolt's plot is actually creativity at its best.

Quantum of Solace is Daniel Craig’s second outing as James Bond, after a successful entry into the character in Casino Royale. The discussion around Craig’s inadequacies for the role was dismissed shortly after audiences and critics gave the blonde Bond the red carpet treatment. His rogue appearance and brutal action redefined the finesse of Brosnan, [...]
Starring: Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham, Priyanka Chopra, Kirron Kher, Boman IraniWritten & Directed by Tarun MansukhaniRating: ***Get this straight. Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham are not gay. They are just happy pretending to be bed partners. In the endeavour they pull put all stops and get into the gay zone with a gusto that stumps all the moralists. There are butt-and-bum jokes galo
Who remembers "The Wild"? We bet our money that at least more than half of our readers would be stump to even know that a CGI-movie came out with that title. Who's fault was it anyway you may ask? Well, there's no one to blame but Madagascar 2's predecessor, Madagascar. Both films showcased almost the same set of animals, with almost the same setting and amazingly almost the same plot as well.

James Bond has returned! Wait, no, I’m sorry that’s not Bond. It seems that director Marc Forster believes the best direction to take the Bond series is down the Jason Bourne route, (I know you all are probably tired of all the Bourne Bond comparisons, but they’re there for a reason so you’ll have to suffer through another one), which I don’t think is the best way for the series to go, a
Politics/Message:
And, so it goes. Hot on the heals of the Anglican Church, fox hunting, and the House of Lords, James Bond is the latest British institution to fall into the PC abyss. Watch out Queen Elizabeth and pork pie!

I believe I mentioned in an earlier post that we were thinking about going to see Madagascar 2. It just so happens that is exactly what we did. Madagascar 2 was great. I couldn't think of a better thing to do with my little girl on a dreary rainy day. Madagascar 2 is terrific for so many reasons. The cast is back and that makes it worth the trip all by itself. To see Sasha Baron Cohen and Chris Ro
Recall the ‘Kantaben’ episode in Karan Johar’s KAL HO NAA HO. The episode is alive even today, in skits, on stage, amongst friends. That was a mere trailer. Picture abhi baaki hain. DOSTANA takes ‘Kantaben’ episode to another level altogether.
DOSTANA is no BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN. It’s not a serious take on homosexuality either. On the [...]
After Disturbia became a surprise hit last year, Hollywood wasted no time in reuniting director D.J. Caruso and Shia Labeouf for another sure to be hit. They had the director, and they had the main lead, all that was left was the female, the action, and the story. To solve the first problem Michelle Monaghan was cast, an action which I applauded. The second problem was solved by deciding to turn
Max Payne gets its long-awaited adaptation into film. Anyone that has played Max Payne will agree that Max Payne (2008) captured the atmosphere from the game. The subways, dark alleys and dark light are Max’s world, and translate well on the big screen. However, the story and characters could have been lifted from a script [...]
And yet welcome to another James Bond film. Quantum of Solace is the 22nd James Bond film ever created and the second one for Daniel Craig. Quantum of Solace, unknown to many, is a direct continuation of Casino Royale which was a reboot for the Bond franchise. Daniel Craig surprised as all with Casino Royale. Many thought he was not the right guy to portray Bond but looking at his performance from
Madagascar 2 is a delight from end to end and one of the few recent cartoons that made me laugh out loud.
I admit to not having seen the original- I think I was in Iraq at the time- but, if you didn't either, you should still be OK for Madagascar 2 as Madagascar 2 thoughtfully gives the audience a sense of the original- a zoo-raised lion, hippopotamus, zebra, and giraffe attempt to leave the

Away from the by-now-mandatory bikinis and brawns of Bollywood, Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi takes you into a different world, where love happens in mere passing of glances, and where values like sacrifice for one’s family forms the premise of an entire story.Some things remain untouched by the passage of time. One such is the genre of family flicks by Rajshree Films, with its helmsman Sooraj Barjatya hav
Death Race is a loose remake of Roger Corman’s Death Race 2000 (1986) (featured movie poster). Corman’s vision is recreated by Paul W.S. Anderson (Resident Evil) for the 2000 generation as a tribute and a cash cow. The movie doesn’t hold back in terms of visual effects and violence. In many ways, this could have [...]
The House Bunny looks like it could go one of two ways. Thankfully (for some), the movie heads off into uncharted romantic comedy territory instead of delivering a sleazy behind-the-scenes gross out comedy. Anna Faris (Scary Movie) has come into her own, and is a charming lead in this bubbly teen Barbie queen chick flick. [...]
We love Anna Farris from her previous films and we were excited to see that she will once again star in this chick-flick entitled The House Bunny. Judging from the trailer itself, we thought that it would be an inferior version of Legally Blonde. We also absolutely hate the movie poster, I mean a lot of people judge if they would see a movie or not just by the movie poster alone and the post
Cathy Garcia-Molina. She is the director of "My Only U" and no doubt she is a hit maker for Star Cinema and the Philippine Romance genre. You might not know this but she is actually the director for "One More Chance" and "A Very Special Love". Both of these flicks were not only blockbusters nationwide but also had some meat and quality in them; and that's saying a lot when you are talking about Ph
Golmaal Returns, sequel to 2006 hit comedy movie, Golmaal, is finally out and boy, it’s creating history on the box office charts. Diwali season is here and people are rushing to cinemas to get a dose of this Brainless comedy. Honestly, I didn’t expect much from this movie by going through the response of the [...]
I used to go to those fur-trading festivals you see every now and again during your vacations to rural “Real” America. They are called rendezvous and I used to even dress in costume and cook period appropriate foods and participate in all sorts of contests. My dad was really into all that, so that was [...]
I haven’t been on a train trip in years. I ventured into the world of riding the Greyhounds, but that’s nothing like the confinement that comes with being on a train.

Despite all the negative reviews that I have been seeing around, I have to say that this was a great entry in the Saw series. Saw V begins where Saw III/IV left off (those two taking place at the same time and all). Agent Strahm sets out to put an end to the whole Jigsaw mystery. He knows there is something suspicious about Hoffman and that he has some secrets that connect him to Jigsaw, while Hof

The movie Pineapple Express is simply such a surprise in our country, literally. To date, we only know of one cinema house showing this film (in Greenbelt 3 Makati) and its looking like it will stay that way. Such a sad fate for this film as everything in it is just 100% perfection that it is just maddening why no one bothered to spread this film around the country, hell, even the around Metro! Di
It's finally released - the film which probably was awaited by every Indian animation lover. Reason being great looking 3-D animation, extremely cool promos and of course the fact that it is a Yash Raj-Disney co product.
Last weekend was a working weekend and hence quite tiresome. Sunday evening we thought of unwinding by watching any movie and since not much choice was available, we decided to go for “HELLO”. I had read the novel “One Night At Call Center” by Chetan Bhagat and so there was definitely this curiosity to watch the cinematic avtaar of the book despite all the bad reviews and critical comments
Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio in an action film? Now that just spells success right? With that in mind, Body of Lies is surely going to be one over-hyped film. Could DiCaprio and Crowe really make this film one of the best action/thrillers ever or will it be just another ordinary, run-of-the-mill flick that everyone watches once then forgets forever?The film is centered on the character of
Eagle Eye is the second film starring Shia LeBeouf with D.J. Caruso in the director’s chair, following closely on the back of Disturbia. Disturbia cemented both artists within Hollywood, using a contemporary Hitchcockian makeover in the shadows of Rear Window. Now they’re back in Eagle Eye, which is more of a magpie. The film parallels [...]
The premise of the The Strangers is about "strangers" that come knocking late at night, hence the title, and the trailer was enough to give us the creeps. Upon watching the movie, we realized one thing: the movie’s plain objective is to just scare the viewers and that's just about it folks! They only wanted the audience to jump off their seats from the suspense filled sound effects and hear
Son of Man is the story of Jesus Christ told in the form of an African fable. The film carefully juxtaposes the Christ figure’s revolutionary message of faith against an unstable political climate in Africa. Son of Man could have fallen into the Apartheid trap by confusing the gospel message and white-black race relations, but [...]
Goodbye Bafana is a biographical drama based on the memoirs of Nelson Mandela’s prison guard, James Gregory.

The story centres on Gregory, played by Joseph Fiennes, who was commissioned to watch [...]
Vikram Bhatt’s horror movie 1920 doesn’t leave you zombied. But it does scare you enough to have a few sweaty, sleepless hours when you hit the bed at night.
The movie derives its title from the year it’s set in, when huge mansions (in present-day Yorkshire) stood tall on the suburbs of Mumbai and horse-drawn carriages plied on dusty grounds carrying dandy men in suits and women in Victoria

The best way to describe Kill Buljo: The Movie would be to imagine a strange low budget mixture of Kill Bill, Austin Powers and Reno 911.

It is always a difficult task to present a good story in the form of a good film and same kinds of problems we can find with film “Hello”.

Honestly speaking, we never seen or even heard of Mutant Chronicles. It is something that just sprout out of nowhere on cinemas everywhere.

Wow! I really loved the movie Alexander. The movie is absolutely stunning with top-notch graphics and visuals while Anthony Hopkins deliver some award-winning performances in this movie.

The Western Horror film genre. Its mighty heyday is now but a little glimmer and for us, its been downhill ever since The Sixth Sense came out and more so when the world came to know the Eastern Horror films from Asia, specifically Japan.

Debutant director Prasad has chronicled the life of a youth, who life takes a huge turn after he develops a romance in 'Kadhalil Vizhunthen'.
