Love Aaj Kal, which is in fact a standard Bollywood love story disguised as a realistic take on modern love.Love Aaj Kal is not a bad film. It's got its heart in the right place, but its other parts seem scattered. The screenplay, for one, is far from foolproof.The film in the end is ordinary stuff, watchable but never memorable like the director's previous efforts, the far superior "Socha Na Tha" and "Jab We Met". I'm going with two out of five and a n average rating for Love Aaj Kal. It's like that plump mango you bite into only to discover it's not ripe yet. Watch it nevertheless for the sharp dialogue and some clever humor.

The subject matter is novel, never attempted before, but the material, the characters [Saif and Deepika especially] as also its execution is targeted at the youth in big cities mainly. As they say in filmi lingo, this one's a hardcore multiplex movie.The film captivates in bits and spurts in the initial portions. Partly because the writing is so different. But the writing breaks new grounds in the second hour. It's in this hour that the film grips you completely, when the fragmented pieces are put together and a mesmeric picture emerges.Final word? LOVE AAJ KAL makes you fall in love with love all over again. Makes you value your loved ones all the more. This film is special!

Ratings: 4/5 Reviewer:Nikhat Kazmi Site:TimesOfIndia

you aren't disappointed at all. Because, this time, the effervescence and adrenalin rush of impetuous love, resonant in the romance of Geet and Aditya in Jab We Met, has been replaced by a more serious and realistic take on modern love. The film literally holds up a mirror to the commitment phobia of the young, successful professionals who keep changing their status from `committed' to `single' on the sundry social networking sites. Much to the chagrin of their dads and mums who fail to understand this emotional dilettantism and keep badgering them with love-of-a-lifetime cliches. The secret of director Imtiaz Ali's film making lies basically in three primordial areas. Instead of relying heavily on a three-hour long script, he chooses to concentrate on his dialogues: crisp, concise and completely in sync with aaj ka lingo.

Imtiaz Ali, one of the most promising filmmakers in the country, is sadly down with blockbusteritis.Love Aaj Kal is watchable, but feels heavily compromised. It's a romantic drama that would have worked wonderfully if it hadn't tried to be funny in the first half, and doesn't work in the second because the laughs dry up. We have poignant moments interrupted by touches of lets-tickle-the-audience humour, as if India can't take a drama straight up. And the songs, something Imtiaz earlier managed to weave in so seamlessly into his narratives, now blankly interrupt the proceedings with much bling. Ali's dialogue is still his biggest strength.Love Aaj Kal is a harmless, watchable film -- sad, because it could have been truly special. It has its moments in the first half, while the second half is an over-melodramatic drag.

A love story that opens with a breakup – that’s quite a ‘twist’ in the treatment. Do not expect too much of novel turns in the tale though.Love Aaj Kal is a been-there-seen-that story of a couple, Jai (Saif Ali Khan) and Meera (Deepika Padukone) who realize true love for each other once they part ways and go their own paths.The recipe of love stories hasn’t changed much over the years. It’s just reworked garnishing that has added to the appeal. Likewise Love Aaj Kal doesn’t promise much newness in its plot but clicks largely for its casual-n-cheerful presentation.Kal ka wine in Aaj ka bottle!

There are three reasons why you must catch Love Aaj Kal ASAP – dialogues, performances and music. Imtiaz Ali's tale of love, then and now is a light hearted and refreshing watch. Burnout, commitment phobia, long distance relationships – issues the minus 30-generation can easily identify with, are subtly touched upon thought the movie. Here's a film that actually talks the talk.Love Aaj Kal is not perfect. But in one of Bollywood's dullest years, this one comes as a refreshing ray of hope. It's bound to bring a smile on your face. Here's a film with both head and heart.It's the coolest film of the year

Imtiaz Ali has spun a two-layered tale of love and has Saif Ali Khan portraying love in today's time (Aaj) and love two decades ago (Kal). In both roles, Saif is super convincing. Love seems to be the flavour for Imtiaz and he handles the subject with a degree of confidence that has now become his trademark. Love knows no language. Besides, it cuts through people from all age. Aaj, Kal and what have you. It is neat, clean and full of romance. This one is for ''The mango people. The Aam Junta'', as Saif's Jai says in one of his dialogues. Go for it.

In fact, the first 20 minutes of the film are excellent when the director wraps up the beginning and the end of the Saif-Deepika love story. While watching this portion of the film, you do feel that "Love Aaj Kal" is indeed treading a very original path.Just when it seemed that the film had come to an abrupt end, there is this twist in the story that makes one wonder if "Love Aaj Kal" is the same movie that started so impressively and ended in such an ordinary manner! If not for the performances and the music, the film would have dipped even further.Yes, one understands where Ali was coming from when he decided to convey that the emotion of love was just the same across different generations. In the end, however, "Love Aaj Kal" turns out to be just another love story.

List of Luck Movie Review

Verdict: Despite a solid start, by the time it ends you might say…Is Luck Se Mujhe Bachao.

Ratings: 1/5 Reviewer:Rajeev Masand Site:IBNLive

Now here's the thing about action films. Most of them aren't particularly smart, but you're willing to overlook that if they make for a dramatic and thrilling experience. The problem with Luck, which opens at cinemas this weekend, is that it's neither smart nor spectacular.Luck is often unintentionally hilarious for the clunky dialogue, and particularly for the ridiculous climax scene which is unquestionably the silliest you've seen in years.I'm going with one out of five for director Soham Shah's Luck. Indeed only a stroke of good fortune could save this one.

Ratings: 2.5/5 Reviewer:Nikhat Kazmi Site:TimesOfIndia

Luck is so heavy on style, it seems to completely forget about the script. So much so, the film is like one extended reality show, where not even one participant is able to strike an emotional connect with the viewer. It's paper thin plot which serves as an adhesive for a string of action sequences which again are not too high on adrenalin. Other than the opening sequence, which features Sanjay Dutt in a life-threatening blindfold race, most of the other episodes hardly bring out the fear factor. Sorry Soham, but the sharks do look like rubber and the climax so much like a pale copy of Sholay's train sequence.Watch it for some momentary thrills and chills.

What is it with Bollywood and adventure? Why can’t we do thrillers in which our hearts leap into our mouths, and stay there? ‘Luck’, which is based entirely on the premise of it brimming over with edge-of-the-seat action, tips us over a couple of times-- at best. The rest is spent building up to a climax which isn’t. ‘Luck’ is many more troughs than peaks.

It really doesn't matter whether this week's new release Luck is a copy or not. We don't make too many great action films in Bollywood. So even if the plot is generously 'inspired', Bollywood fans are usually starved of a good high-octane stunt fest. To cut the long story short, Luck is straight out of the '80s. Medical miracles, clashing heroes, sacrificing junior artistes and even an attempted rape... it's all there! But even if the makers made this film for the masses; the execution is just too lethargic and unconvincing. Luck is a lame reality show playing on celluloid.

If you're into thrillers or have been missing one, LUCK holds the key. Be rest assured, you haven't watched such thrills since DHOOM 2. But the film slips due its ineffectual writing. It gyrates from engrossing to bas-theek-hain towards the second hour.LUCK may not be high on story, but the concept and at least four stylised thrilling sequences make a big difference. On the whole, LUCK rides on star power, adrenaline-pumping thrills and a concept that's novel for the Indian screens. Despite some loose ends, these three factors primarily would ensure a Lucky journey at the box-office.

It could have been 'decent timepass,' as us indulgent towards Bollywood are likely to label tripe, but this ridiculous script devoid of both logic and drama leads to a really boring piece of trash.It's like watching a really slow episode of the Indian Fear Factor, one where Akshay Kumar -- or the girls -- forgot to show up. The shots are tacky, the thrills leave you cold, and this film could have been half its length but a sadistic use of slow-motion and flashback doubles your misery.A word to the director: Mr Shah, despite much hype you gave us Kaal. And now there's Luck, with too many loopholes to even point at. A suggestion, then, for your new industry nickname: Ho-hum Shah. Thanks for the yawns -- and for the single funniest climax in ages. No, really.

The opening and ending action sequences by Allan Amin are convincingly choreographed but the intermediate stunts appear too artificial. The director tries to cover up the patchiness of the action by Santosh Thundiyil’s erratic camerawork but it only disturbs more. The banter between characters in confrontational scenes looks too rehearsed. Each one has a dramatized mugged-up response to complement the opponent’s remarks. The emotional connect with viewer is certainly missing despite director Soham Shah’s repeated attempts to induce sentiments.The script of the film relies too much on coincidental luck.

Jashnn Movie Review

List of Jashnn Movie Review

Verdict : You won’t regret watching Jashnn but then again don’t expect anything great.

Showing 6 reviews

Ratings: 1/5 Reviewer:Rajeev Masand Site:IBNLive

A one-line premise that's reluctantly stretched into an unconvincing screenplay, Jashnn belongs to that pantheon of bad '80s melodramas where characters say horrible things to each other and then spend the rest of the movie regretting it.Because the zero rating is reserved for objectionable films, I'm going with a generous one out of five for Jashnn. The film's title means celebration. I can safely say that was wishful thinking on the part of its makers

Ratings: 3/5 Reviewer:Nikhat Kazmi Site:TimesOfIndia

Jashnn isn't just a story with a lot of heart. It's told with in a heartwarming way too, with moments that touch you with their naked pain.The film scores mostly in the brother-sister relationship and the romantic track between Adhyayan and Anjana does pale into insignificance before it. Shahana pitches in another power-packed performance after Rock On, even as Humayun Saeed makes an interesting debut as the cold and brutal biz honcho. Ironically, the audio track isn't as strong as the usual Bhatt Inc score which always boasts of chartbusters. Watch it for its vintage appeal: it reminds you of the unadulterated emotional interplay of Mahesh Bhatt's cinema, not so long ago. Come back, Mahesh, it's been a long sabbatical.

Despite its plot of convenience, Jashnn has an emotional core to it. The actors somehow rise above the mediocre writing, especially in the dramatic scenes. Emotional conflicts have always been Bhatt's strength and his influence is very visible in the film's best moments.Jashnn has dollops of old school, tearjerker melodrama that's quite touching in parts. Wish the makers knew where to stop.Though it's slow and inconsistent, good songs and strong performances make Jashnn a decent watch.

Newcomer Humayun Saeed is quite the surprise package. He completely overshadows Adhyayan. He has by far one of the best villains, who can steal the audience's heart.Jashnn really does not deserve any stars. The only rating it will get is for its terrific music. The song, Aaya Re, is the film's lifeline. Three cheers to the music directors Sharib Toshi, Aftab Nauman and Sanjay Chandelier

You can't deny the fact that JASHNN brings back memories of the immensely likable ROCK ON!!, Like ROCK ON!!, JASHNN also looks at relationships, but the relationships here are poles apart. But JASHNN is not without its share of hiccups. The romantic track could've been as intense as the volatile ones. Also, it gets long drawn towards the second hour and robs the film of its sheen to an extent. But the climax more than compensates for the blemishes. Thankfully! On the whole, JASHNN is a moving tale with three USPs - its music, the emotional quotient and the performances by its four actors. Despite some loose ends, it should slowly and steadily win over cinegoers based on these three factors.

Ratings: 2/5 Reviewer:Gaurav Malani Site:Indiatimes

Jashnn – The Music Within is supposedly about melodic aspirations but the music angle is concealed deep within the prime plot, which is basically a romance drama. The good part is that the drama is dealt deftly which redeems for the lack of musical development. Adhyayan Suman is raw but promises immense potential. Shahana Goswami, as the unapologetic mistress, comes up with an impressive natural act. Sadly her character is short-lived in the second half. Humayun Saeed gives a refreshingly restrained performance in his negative role and a talent to look forward to. Anjana Sukhani is passable.

Verdict: If you really want to enjoy the film, read the book first. and it’s Harry Potter it can’t go wrong.

Ratings: 4/5 Reviewer:Rajeev Masand Site:IBNLive

A thrilling cocktail of gloomy mystery and comical growing pains, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is easily the best of the six films in the series so far, even if it's the one in which very little happens in terms of actual plot development and crucial incidents.Complaints against the plot and against the omission of several incidents from the book feel redundant when you look the film as a whole. For followers of the franchise, this is potent stuff and a very worthy companion piece to the rest. I'm going with two thumbs up and four out of five for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Directed remarkably by David Yates, this is exactly what fans have been waiting for.

The film scores heavily in terms of its scintillating cinematography (Bruno Delbonnel), its edgy atmospherics and its straight-from-the-book histrionics. The actors truly live-out the characters, so meticulously created by JK Rowling. The high point of the film are it's fresh and juicy moments of adolescent madness, where our young wizards try to cope with the turbulence of normal teenage years. Almost poignant! Keep the series up to date. Don't give this a miss, all you teens and adult-teens.

David Yates’ sixth instalment is probably the darkest of the Potter films so far as suspense builds up right from the beginning and keeps you engaged throughout. Harry’s mind-reading abilities, suspense that is build up and then partially unravelled towards the end forces one to wait and watch for will Harry be able to destroy Voldemort. (The mighty enemy does not make an appearance in this one).'Harry Potter and the Half Blood prince’ has romance, intrigue, suspense, action – indeed a magical experience. A must watch!

If you can't imagine a big budget summer film without seemingly endless adrenaline pumping scenes, the sixth Harry Potter film, being unleashed this week in about 10,000 theatres worldwide, could come as a surprise. Even those who are familiar with the novel on which the new film Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is based may find it a bit surprising that the film has far less spectacular scenes and magical feats than the previous chapters.

The film's climax is not particularly gripping but it makes the viewers look forward to film based on the last book in the series. In fact, there will be two movies coming out of the single Rowling tome, one in the year 2010 and one a year later.

Half-Blood Prince also tells explores the relationship between Potter and Albus Dumbledore. The headmaster now looks at Potter – now in his late teens – more as a friend and an accomplice but also reminds him from time to time that he is no ordinary boy.

I must confess throughout the movie, the parts I was actually looking for were those involving Harry and Ginny. Yes, the two do kiss – though not in full public view as in the book but in the privacy of the (ahem) Room of Requirement.

At two hours and 33 minutes though, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince can seem tad too long. But then again can we ever get enough of the young wizard and his friends? Probably not...

It surprises me that ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ was even compared to Terminator Salvation, the latter being way superior in terms of everything – script, special effects, performance, photography, et al.The humans are less in quantity compared to robots but are far more interesting than the robots who populate and pollute the film.

Unable to find its groove in either comedy or drama, this film lumbers along unsteadily with a screenplay that lacks direction. And saddled with such uninspiring material, neither of the actors can muster up anything that even remotely resembles a performance.Shortkut isn’t the kind of film that makes you angry.

SHORT KUT, a remake of the Malayalam film UDAYANANU THANAM, written by Anees Bazmee and directed by Neeraj Vora, arrives a bit too late. Actually, it should've hit the screens a couple of years ago. That's because it abounds and relies completely on clichés and which, in turn, makes you break into a big yawn.

At a time when 'comedies' seem to have become nothing but a mindless procession of gags, it's good to see writer Anees Bazmee come up with an actual plot. The points of conflict in Short Kut are authentic, and -- thanks to Akshaye Khanna's stoically solid performance -- you do end up feeling for the leading man as he undergoes severe trials and tribulations.Short Kut had the potential to be a genuinely funny one, and while it mostly flubs that promise up throughout, it does manage a few moments.

There is no short cut to success is what the film intends to convey taking a very long route. Sadly, at the very outset, producer Anil Kapoor attempts to take a shortcut by choosing to (officially) remake a Malayalam film Udayananu Tharam (Mohanlal, Sreenivasan) which in turn is a (unofficial) spin-off on the Hollywood flick Bowfinger (Steve Martin, Eddie Murphy)

Shortkut unfortunately presents a far from convincing picture of the movie business. Most of the characters and situations end up looking over-the-top and caricaturish. Were this movie a brainless spoof, it might still have worked. Sadly Shortkut pretends to be a straight-out-of-life situational comedy.Khanna and Warsi try hard to pump some life into the lifeless screenplay. But a weak script and dull direction mar the potential of an interesting plot.

Love Aaj Kal opens with one of the most interesting tracks in recent times. By remixing the legendary Nagin snake charmer tune, Pritam puts his skills to fine use this time. Now this can surely qualify as inspiration or tribute, rather than blatant plagiarism. The snake tune leads into a hip-hop heavy track called Twist. As with Pritam's Bhool Bhulaiyaa number, Twist also has an instantly catchy hook. Akshay regular Neeraj Shreedhar delivers big time in what could be one of Saif's biggest hits ever. Don't be surprised if it's all over the radio stations very soon.

The album, which has lyrics by Gulzar and vocals by some of the best singers in the industry, has five originals and two remixes.

On the whole, "Kaminey" is easily among 2009's finest scores. Experimental in its sound, yet very mainstream in appeal. Vishal Bhardwaj has proved his mettle yet again.

Kaminey is certainly not a run of the mill album and this is where its prime strength lies. The album boasts of at least three chartbuster tracks - 'Dhan Te Nan' (sure shot superhit), 'Thode Bheege' (must for the hearts in love) and 'Raat Ke Dhai Baje' (for some 'masti' and 'hungama'). Songs like 'Fatak' and 'Kaminey' are innovative and situational which showcase the range of Vishal Bhardwaj. Add to that the 'Go Charlie Go - Theme Music' and you know that Kaminey is yet another addition to some excellent albums that have hit the stands during last one month.

Truly, a delectable bhelpuri, marked by some fine acting by the ensemble cast. Standing tall amongst them is the mercurial Kay Kay and the quicksilver Rimmi Sen, who pitches in one of her best performances as the bindaas Bengali badmash, complete with the tacky clothes and the patchy make-up.
