The Cake Eaters (2007)

you wanna feel good, watch this movie!!!

[8/10 · 26 March 2009]

I have been waiting for this movie from a very long time. Wait is a worthwhile, and i thoroughly enjoyed this one. Mary Stuart Masterson has captured complete concentration from the audience. You can watch this movie if your feeling low or even good.

This movie is about love and relationship. If you are physically unfit, you are not going to loose out of love and its wonderfully portrayed by Kristen Stewart. Overall your heart will float in a sea of joy.

Kristen Stewart is amazing, she takes a through a journey of kind bigheartedness and love. She definitely has a bright future and a long career. The storyline is perfect which contains emotions and humor.

Aaron Stanford is equally good in his own way. A piece of work through which you will fell good for at least a day. Cheers!!!!

Definitely, Maybe (2008)

good one

I just cant resist Rachel Weisz. She is good in this movie along with Ryan Retnolds. Elizabeth Banks and Isla Fisher are really good. Abigail Breslin has great future. The storytelling is perfect and direction is really good, the main thing which kept me going through this movie is " character development". The chemistry between Will and April is a treat. Its a story of life and how you tell it to your kids about meeting their mother. And finding yourself whom you loved the most of all of them.

Ryan has come long way in his acting from Van Wilder to Chaos Theory to Definitely, maybe. music should have been better. Overall a fun movie to watch with friends, parents, grandparents etc etc.

Rock On!! (2008)

By far the best "bollywood musical"

[6/10 · 15 September 2008]

I am not at all a BOLLYWOOD person, my friends convinced me for this movie. I am a big fan of rock bands like LED ZEPP, DOORS, IRON MAIDEN, MEGADEATH, METALLICA, KORN, LAMB OF GOD etc etc. I Just wanted to see what Indian movies got to do with Rock music.

I was very impressed with Farhan Akthar in Dil Chatha Hai and Lakshya for story, screenplay, cinematography and method acting, he managed to accomplish in all fields (please forget about "DON" it does not include)

Rock On is a movie about friendship which is shattered for some small reason and how your life moves on after that. The characters realize after 10 years that they are unhappy and completely depressed with the life they are leading.

This story has been told really well with humor, actors have enough space to show their emotions. All the songs are performed on stage or parties unlike the usual Bollywood stuff!! Actors have done very good job, thanks for not overacting, . This movie shows it can do well without stars(khan's) and item numbers. Its a feel good plot which shows depth of friendship and love for music. By far the first Bollywood movie where songs actually fit in.

Farhan has pulled it very well with acting and singing. Overall good job, and this is not a commercial Bollywood flick.

Match Point (2005)

A different touch from Mr Allen

[7/10 · 14 September 2008]

Very interesting plot with good acting. Matthew Goode has a great future, for some reason i always wanted him on screen. He is real. Scarlett and Emily have done fine job. The pace of the movie was good, and kept the interest all the time. In the beginning the chemistry between Scarlett and Jonathan was missing, however it carried well later on. You will definitely talk about this movie after watching it.

Direction, music, cinematography, editing and acting is excellent. Presentation of the story is very absorbing and catchy, music is brilliant. Matthew Goode is a fine actor than Jonathan Rhys Meyers.

A good one from Mr. Allen once again.
