Ishkq In Paris - Review

[Poster for Ishkq In Paris with Ishkq In Paris, Preity Zinta, Rhehan Malliek, Prem R Soni] quick review:

Ishkq in Paris is a story told way too many times already to be of any interest. What amazes me is why anyone would want to tell it again, when there aren't any takers for listening to it.

Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani - Preview

[Poster for Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani with Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Aditya Roy Kapoor, Kunaal Roy Kapur, Madhuri Dixit, Ayan Mukerji] Absolutely looking forward to this one, aren't you? Read more...

Aurangzeb - Review

[Poster for Aurangzeb  with Aurangzeb , Atul Sabharwal, Arjun Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Amrita Singh, Rishi Kapoor] quick review:

Aurangzeb makes the corrupt cop theme interesting. For that itself, it becomes worth a watch despite being a little drab and a little stretched out in the end.

The Reluctant Fundamentalist - Review

A wogma guest review by Pradeep Menon
[Poster for The Reluctant Fundamentalist  with The Reluctant Fundamentalist , Mira Nair, Riz Ahmed, Kate Hudson, Liev Schreiber, Kiefer Sutherland]
wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD (?) - But the really keen can give it a big screen shot, just for the mood
quick review:

Squandering away the opportunity to make a truly thought-provoking film set around a gripping thriller, Mira Nair’s The Reluctant Fundamentalist instead takes the conventional, stereotype-fueled route and ends up a bit of a disappointment. Perhaps worth a watch for some, because of the look-and-feel it creates and for the lead performance by Riz Ahmed, it is nevertheless seldom more than just watchable.

Epic - Review

A wogma guest review by Pradeep Menon
[Poster for Epic with Epic, Chris Wedge, Amanda Seyfried, Beyoncé Knowles, Josh Hutcherson]
wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD (?)
quick review:

Despite terrific animation, Epic, directed by Chris Wedge, fails to make for a truly compelling watch because the story just doesn’t pack enough of a punch. Hardcore animation fans could consider watching it for the animation alone. The rest would be better off catching something like Ice Age on DVD.

The Great Gatsby - Review

A wogma guest review by Pradeep Menon
[Poster for The Great Gatsby with The Great Gatsby, Baz Luhrmann, Leonardo DiCaprio, Joel Edgerton, Tobey Maguire]
wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD (?)
quick review:

Eye-candy but rarely more, Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby joins the list of screen adaptations that fail to match up to their literary counterparts. Good performances don’t succeed in elevating the film to where it truly deserved to be, considering the richness of the source. You won’t miss much if you skip the film, though you probably wouldn’t mind giving it a shot if you’ve read and loved the book, or if you’re desperate to see Amitabh Bachchan in his first, albeit miniscule, role in a Hollywood film.

Gippi - Review

[Poster for Gippi with Gippi, Sonam Nair, Divya Dutta, Taaha Shah, Arbaz Kadwani, Riya Vij]
wogma rating: Catch on DVD for sure (?)
quick review:

I'm always game for going back to my mid-teens. Gippi doesn't make me repent despite not being the greatest films on adolescence.

Go Goa Gone - Review

[Poster for Go Goa Gone  with Go Goa Gone ] quick review:

Much fun and gore - a combination I never thought would've worked. But owing to some witty dialogue and perfectly timed dialogue delivery make Go Goa Gonea watch well worth it.

Star Trek Into Darkness - Review

A wogma guest review by Pradeep Menon
[Poster for Star Trek Into Darkness with Star Trek Into Darkness, J J Abrams, Benedict Cumberbatch, Chris Pine, Alice Eve]
wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for DVD (?) - Only the really, REALLY keen should give the big screen a shot
quick review:

J J Abrams has certainly bitten off more than he can chew. Star Trek Into Darkness is a film that barely manages to be watchable, primarily because of Benedict Cumberbatch, who unfortunately appears for far less time on screen than he deserves. Fanboys apart, there is very little that this film has to offer to anyone else.

Shootout At Wadala - Review

[Poster for Shootout At Wadala with Shootout At Wadala, Sanjay Gupta, Sanjay Gupta, Priyanka Chopra, John Abraham, Anil Kapoor, Manoj Bajpai, Kangna Ranaut] quick review:

A gang-war is a gang-war is a gang-war. If there was anything else it was too loud to register.
