The Lake House – Movie Review

December 27, 2008 by Haas

[rating:3.5/5]

The lake house is a beautiful romantic movie about the conversations between two residents of a Lake house. The plot circles around a lonely doctor who once occupied an unusual lakeside home and her exchange of love letters with its former resident, a frustrated architect. The protagonists must try to unravel the mystery behind their extraordinary romance before it’s too late.

A lot of people recommended the movie to me, but it somehow got lost in my to-watch list. When yodha finished his review of this movie with “the movie’s a good watch for romantic fools”, I was like that sounds like me :P

Maan Gaye Mughall-E-Azam – Movie Review

October 21, 2008 by Haas

[rating: 3.5]

Maan Gaye Mughall-E-Azam is one of the nicest surprises I have had all year(in watching movies ie). Firstly I wasnt expecting much from the movie but the promising star cast was looking good. It had Paresh Rawal, Rahul Bose and Kay Kay Menon, three actors whose movies I have truly admired.

The movie is supposedly the remake of a classic Mel Brooks movie “To Be or Not to Be“. This Indian version uses the backdrop of the 93 bomb blasts and produces a hilarious comedy of a bunch of theater artists trying to stop the bad guys.

What I loved about the movie was the brilliantly sketched out characters, who even when saying clinched lines are really funny. The comic twist to Urdu Shayari and on stage improvisation had me running out of breath laughing. I think I was laughing for atleast 80% of the movie!

The Man With One Red Shoe – Movie Review

September 2, 2008 by Haas

[Rating:5/5]

I first watched The Man With One Red Shoe on television years ago when I first started watching Hollywood movies. All I remembered from the movie was the basic plot(which was brilliant) and that I did not stop laughing right thru the movie. I decided to watch it again and see if the movie was actually that much fun!
