Movie reviews

Reviews/recommendations -

1. Firaaq - Directed by Nandita Das, starring Naseer bhai, Paresh Rawal, Deepti Naval, Sanjay Suri. It is a movie set in Gujrat, one week after Godhra and how it has affected different lives. With such a cast, the acting bar is very high and direction is also quite good. Since the subject itself is too hard to take on, i think this movie does a great job in diving into the lives of normal people, but at the same time it is not very heavy to watch too.

2. Taking of Pelhalm one two three - The old one. This 70s movie shows how to make a suspense drama without the ludicrous action sequences present in today's movies. The tension thread in movie is taut throughout with 90 mins getting over in a second.

3. Spaceballs - A hilarious comedy movie. Must watch with friends, watching alone will spoil the effect.

4. Public enemies - So-so. But johnny depp is excellent.
