Bas Ek Pal (2006)
Watch ONLY if nothing else is available
OKay first of all, I was really surprised to GET tickets for this movie the day it released. On top of that , I was wondering HOW only the top 3 rows were full and the rest of the theatre EMpty! I mean, does word spread so fast about the movie?? I don't think I've ever seen such a vague story line. Seemed like even the director/screenplay writer had no clue where he wanted to take the audience.And yes, unlike some other fine directors (Lage Raho Munnabhai for eg), this dude seems to take the audience to have IQs of less than 10.
Story is something like this.A,B,C,D and E are the main players. A sees B in a Discotheque and falls for her. C is friend from childhood days. D is C's Friend and E is D's wife. So an "accident" happens and A shoots C and C is crippled for life.A gets to spend 3 harrowing years in the jail. All the while A lives Solely with B's memories in his heart. Why? I cannot fathom the reason how he can fall in love sooo deeply with one e has met but twice! Meanwhile C is all set to marry B, who probably "loves" me out of pity since she holds herself partly responsible.D is an alcoholic and a wife beater and does not allow E to leave.E meanwhile has had an affair with C. D kills everyone around him including himiself. Only C & B remain in the end.Okay too confusing isn't it? Welcome to BAS EK PAL
Thenali (2000)
Rib TIckling Comedy
One Amazing Movie with Loads of Amazingly funny dialogues. Have laughed non-stop for scenes together.Kamal Hassan is undoubtedly the KING of comedy!! his acting, his vel, his mannerisms is just Mind blowing.Not to undermine Jayarams acting.His comedy timing is AWESOME too. Every character has some really funny dialogues from Diamond Babu's "I love.. Murkku" , to a TV reporter saying "unga Mentalla Medicalla programma paarthern" to Matrabootham's assistant never getting the name Thenali right (he goes thru sundali anjali mandali and loads of other names!) Although its a ripoff from What about Bob (which was another great movie!), its definitely got its own charm. All in all, a GREAT movie watching experience which no one should miss
