FLICKS GALORE

Started the new year by watching 4 movies in the first 2 days. To exaggerate it, we saw 4 movies in 26 hours.


On 2nd Jan, we saw Avatar. And it was fully worth it. The graphics, the special effects, sound quality (IMAX) was really worth the cost. Even though we had to sit in the front row (gandhi class as we called it during college days) and ended up with a sore neck and bad headache, it was fully worth it.


Next day, saw De Dana Dan and 8x10 Tasveer in the morning. De Dana Dan was a typical Priyadarshan no-brainer. Not at all in the Hera Pheri class, not at all funny and strictly recommended to stay away from. If there was a negative rating, I would give this movie a negative rating.


8x10 Tasveer was surprisingly a very good movie. The suspense was held back very well until the climax. No one can guess the end although S did guess it partially correctly. Though I am not a big Akshay Kumar fan, I saw this movie only because it was directed by Nagesh Kukunoor. I was hoping that Nagesh will live up to his standards and he did not disappoint at all. Fully recommended for the mystery buffs. The way the movie reveals a strand of the plot reminded me of Vantage point, another must see IMO.


Last, in the evening, saw Sandra Bullock's Premonition. Very nice movie, keeps the viewer perplexed till the end. You can never figure out what is going on in the movie, until the last 15-20 minutes. S and I loved it.


Nice way to start the year. ;-)
