Mawang (2007)
Don't miss it if you watch Kdramas. No, don't miss it even if you don't watch Kdramas
"I entered the dark tunnel and I saw you."
I finished this drama right now and I just wanted to talk about it. Weirdly,nobody has seen this great kdrama. I don't know why I started watching something with less than 100 ratings on IMDB, but I'm glad I did. This drama has such great storyline with impressive acting and an unforgettable soundtrack. But the real winner is characters and character development. I can't say much without spoiling but as a fan of revenge stories, I think this one is really unique. Because of the way that it portrays characters, motives, judgement and life in general. Because it shows how sometimes a crooked line can be perceived right and straight. It has a solid screenplay with a bunch of great dialogue and many great scenes.After 6 or 7 episodes I got worried because the writer showed us all his cards and I thought: How can he keep this story interesting? We already know everything.
Well, I was wrong. because even though the story is indeed interesting, it's not about events and twists and cases. It's about people. About characters.
And it's worth mentioning that this drama is fast paced and thrilling.
And the final word: Ending. It's not happy. It's not sad. It's not unexpected or shocking. It's just right. It's how the story should end.
P.S: There used to be a time when kdramas showed knives without censoring. Oh good old days.
Ulidavaru Kandanthe (2014)
An impressive production from Kannada cinema
So let's start by saying that I can't even pronounce the title of this movie, yet I watched it because I can see some great potential in south Indian movies that many other people can't(I don't mean Indians. I'm talking about the world). Kannada industry is the weakest in south but sometimes great movies come out of it and this is one of them. Let's get to the movie.
There are many good things here. Acting, direction, music( oh you bloody beautiful thing!). But my favorite thing is the dialogues and ending.
At the beginning, I thought oh it's gonna be good. But after a few minutes I kinda changed my mind because in first half, the story drags a bit and it's slow. But the second half is so great and the pacing is fine. Actually I think the first half was a mess because nothing is known yet. Anyway, the ending was so cool and the music made it even more awesome.
Oh and Rackshit Shetty seems to be a genius. Not only because if this movie, but also kirik party
Ich seh, Ich seh (2014)
One of the 2 movies that I deleted because they were stupid
I haven't sent a review in imdb for ages, but I came back just to confess my hate and disgust of this film. It's predictable in some ways and though I admit it's not a bad film, I hate it so much
Jil Jung Juk (2016)
Worths a watch for many reasons
As one of Siddharth's fans, I was waiting for this film for a long time(Near 7 months).Fortunately, this film didn't let me down. Positive Points:
1.Music: this is definitely one of the most highlight points.Music is fresh just like the film is. Vishal Chandrashekar has a bright future.
2.Acting: Seeing Radha Ravi in a different role and seeing Sannath and Avinash together again (after demonte colony) was nice.All actors did a good job with their unusual roles.
3.Colors:I love colors!That blue hair and pink car...I wish I could watch it on big screen.
4.Cinematography: Among all technical works, maybe this is the best. The shooting scenes and slow motions were done perfectly.
5.New Attempt for not just Tamil cinema: I know there were some movies with this genre before like jigarthanda and soodhu kavvum, but we have to admit there was nothing like this in kollywood!
6.The Story: The story is simple but interesting
7.Comedy: There are some adult jokes but I don't complain!Interval is one of the best intervals I've ever seen in kollywood
Negative Points:
1. The Screenplay: Though the story is fine, but the director couldn't write it on paper properly.
2.The climax: It was not good! A big let down for the film
3. It's definitely entertaining but it's also irritating a few times
Overall: This is more than just a film. It's the gate of a new world for Tamil cinema. Unfortunately I think critics didn't appreciate this film enough. It'll be a cult film one day. You know it's just like Boys! (2003 Tamil film) Mixed reviews from critics,average box office and now it's known as a cult film
Dil Se.. (1998)
You can watch movie even when you know all of the details about story
Before I watch this movie I went to of Dil Se.I did not want to read the plot but suddenly see the last words and knew the end.After that I read full of the plot and understand everything.Then I downloaded Dil Se and watched the first and last scene and the first and the last song (Chaiyya Chaiyya and Jiya Jale).
After a few months I decided to watch movie.I taught that there is no surprise for me now but it was!at the first,the music.I watched Kuch Kuch Hota Hai before Dil Se and I was sure that music of KKHH is the best in 1998 Hindi movies and Filmfare Awards make some mistakes that gave the award foe best music and best lyrics to Dil Se.But after I watched Dil Se,I taught the music of Dil Se was better than KKHH.the lyrics of Dil Se Re was better than Chaiyya Chaiyya but I do not know why it did not nominate for best lyrics.Although,lyrics of KKHH(song) was better.A.R.Rehman is a great music director.I think after The Slumdog millionaire and Lagaan it is his best work.
Dil Se has special songs that you can not find like them in other movies.Even It was hard to perform almost all of the songs.(Except E Ajnabee).In Chaiyya Chaiyya SRk dances on the top of train that it was really dangerous.Farah Khanٌs choreography is amazing and one of her best.There is no song and dance like that.Dil Se Re and Satrangi Re are different by the other songs in their kind.I loved Dil Se Re.Jiya Jale is great.
I surprised with Manisha Koirala.It is her second movie that i watched.the first one was "Gupt" but I impressed with Kajol and did not pay attention to Manisha.I really like to watch her other movies like Company and Akele Hum Akele Tum. She is great in emotional scenes,songs,drama scenes.She makes Meghna completely understandable.Preity Zint is one of my favorite actresses and i pleased by her good performance.SRK is great too.
I knew the story before watch but When i read it for the first time,I really surprised. specially by the end.The dialogues are good.sometimes comedy and sometimes romantic.sometimes social and sometimes sad.The last scene is excellent and the last dialogues by SRK are the some of the most romantic dialogues in the movie.Cinematography is brilliant and fantastic
But the awards was very cruel by Dil Se.It did not nominate for best film.And except FilmFare none of the awards paid attention to music, cinematography,performances,choreography,lyrics and direction.
A great romance drama politic movie that you never forget the music. 10/10
Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006)
I liked it and I did ُ nt like it!
I really do ُnt know why this movie has a rating like 5/8.Kank was not a great film but its better than 5/8.(maybe 7/4)
Why I liked:
Music:I think after Kuch Kuch Hota Hai the music of Kank is the best in Karan Johar ُs movies.(as a director)The song"Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna" is the best song.I think "Tumhi Dekho Naa" was a little like "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai" (song) and "Rock n Roll Soniye" is a little like "Shava Shava" in "K3G". Karan Johar can control the actors and most of he scenes. Performance:Kank is like K3g.full of superstars.but all of them have a great performance.I think Kank has one of the best ensemble cast in Hindi films.
SRK:A lot of SRk ُs fans don ُt like this movie because of his character.He is Dev Saran.when you are watching Kank you must forget KKHH,K3G,DDLJ,KHNH,DTPH and all of the kind,good and comedy characters of him.He is not an idiot lover in KKHH,or even an obsessive lover in Darr.He has a special performance.He makes Dev Saran real and if you like SRK ُs positive character maybe you do ُnt like Dev Saran.
Rani Mukherjee:I ُm happy that Kajol rejected Kank.because even her appearance is not suitable for Maya ُs character.Rani has an innocence face but she can be a traitor too.Rani can talk with her eyes.I don ُt like her but she has a good performance.
Preity Zinta:Preity has 4 movies with Srk but it ُs clear that they are not good for each other!Because of this maybe she was the best choice for Rhea ُs role.she ُs beautiful and suitable for a fashion magazine. i think it ُs one of Preity ُ s best performances.
Abhishek Bachan:The best actor of the movie.He and Amitabh Bachan are only funny characters.Rish ُ s angry face,kind face,comedy face and his love fr Maya.Abhishek can do all of these. Amitabh Bachan:He and SRK have problem with each other?(in movies)at first "Mohabbatein" that Amitabh was fighting with Srk.Then K3g and now Kank.but in Kank they had a better relationship than to previous movie. i thin Samarjeet don ُ t like Dev.Amitabh is amazing and makes you laugh in the most of scenes.
Kiron Kher:she was ُ nt so important but she was good too.
Characters:the characters were real,believable.they were ُ nt far or they were ُnt from another planet.They were near and I could understand them.None of them was white or black.all of them are gray.none of them was innocence,all of them had their fault.Dev was the darkest character and Rishi was the lightest.all of the characters failed.all of them had a part in their personality that wants to finish everything.but only Dev and Maya found that part.They are not as complete as their spouses because of this ,they feel bad about their marriages.
Why I didn ُ t like:
story,story and story!treason is not a bad story but it was bitter and different by Indian ُs culture.the hotel scene between Dev and Maya was not necessary. the story was real but usually people are not as lucky as these characters.you can leave your spouse for someone else!then...what happened?everybody forgives you and you can be happy with that one!Rishi married again Rhea found someone else,Dev and Maya reunited each other.Then what can we hear?"the foundation of marriage should be love not something else."
It ُs right the way of showing this was wrong.the story is the happiest style of treason.But sometimes it can ُt be like this.
9/10.
Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003)
Saif Ali khan ُs best performance!
It ُs my favorite film.every time that i watch movie i have a great feeling about life and the main reason to live:make some one happy,then you can be happy too.life is in every moment of love and love is in every part of life.
I think the music of the movie is one of the most positive things in film and is the best music in Shahrukh Khan movies.the song"Maahe Ve"is a great song for an engagement celebrate. "Pretty woman" and "It ُs the time to disco" have a joyful rhythm."Kal Ho Naa Ho"is the best song of the film and the best Suno Nigam ُs song.
The performance of all of the actors was fantastic.Saif Ali Khan has the best performance in the film and also it ُs his best performance.Preity Zinta is proper for role.She has a serious face,one of the most important things that Naina needs. Jaya Bachan is a kind mother but sometimes I don ُt like her performance. although she is good for her role.SRK is like always,charming,full of energy and has a good performance.
The other actors and actresses like Delnaz Irani and the others,make "Kal Ho Naa Ho" a comedy movie.The emotional scenes like when Aman is dancing with Naina in his dream or when he is reading Rohit ُs blank notebook for her or the last scene make the movie a romantic movie.the good and real relation ship between the characters and the story about life make the movie drama.
the dialogues are great and have some thing to say.some of them are really unforgettable like:"Listen,Laugh,Be happy,Maybe tomorrow never comes." The story is ُnt a new thing but it ُs lovely and amazing."Kal Ho Naa Ho" learned me some important things about life that i ُve never paid attention to them.
Who Knows?Maybe tomorrow never comes.
10/10.
Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa (1994)
one of SRK's best romance movies
Filmfare awards was very cruel that year.this movie only nominated for best actor.but it was its merit to be in the list of nominations for best film,best music director and best lyrics("Woh To Hai Albela").i think it was better than the winner of best film "hum hain rahi pyar ke".the music of the film was really brilliant specially the songs "Aana Mere Pyar Ko Na Tum" and "Woh To Hai Albela".i liked the real story of the film and great performance from shahrukh khan.it is a real story and it is the best thing about this film after srk.if srk was not in this film,film was not like this,because Suchitra Krishnamoorthi and Deepak Tijori don't are not special at all.sunil real character and his trying to win his Anna 's heart makes you good feeling.and comedy-romance scenes are so funny. it's not srk's best film or best romance but i think after "DDLJ","Veer Zaara","Devdas" and "KKHH" it is his best romantic movie. 10/10.no doubt!
