Mary Kom (2014)

Acting, Script, Priyanka, India = Awesomeness :) In the plethora of sports movies this one is a jewel in the crown.. Yes, its Mary Kom, the true Indian with the journey of er boxing in the north-eastern Indian state - Manipur...You will surely love this movie :) An inspiring and motivational story to feel and watch :)

Annabelle (2014)

A prequel to The Conjuring was the only reason that made me watch this movie.. All the doll possession, etc etc was more of a stereo-type genre of horror..But nevertheless, at times it did have its moments but then overall it was a passee...could have been a lot better.. A can watch movie at the night only :)

Singham Returns (2014)

So you try to make a sequel of a re-make of a south indian movie and this is the result---> Disaster.. Rohit Shetty you are just over doing it so many times.. what a retarded waste movie !! So many sad flaws and expecting it to gross in a lot of money ?? Bad storyline is a biiiig factor...Advise : DO NOT WATCH

Sonali Cable (2014)

The involvement of Ramesh Sippy, and i thought it would really be something great..But it fell short of my expectations... a good effort no doubt but something was clearly missing.. Anupam Kher was there and so was Rhea and also Ali (from bobby jasoos fame)but.. there were clear flaws in the story line at times though it was mixed with the stark reality of todays corporate dominance .. not worth watch in theatres..but a sure family flick hit on tv :P :)

Kite (2014)

Samuel Jackson ---> the only reason that i was inclined to watch it and... well not as disappointing as people are saying...i mean for a full fledged bad ass movie it wasnt upto the mark but just for a casual time pass it was pretty much fine to watch.. gory bloody movie set in the future was no eye soar..So, a can watch for the weekend :)

Bang Bang (2014)

??? - yea thats my reaction to this re-make of the highly successful movie Knight and Day. Am compelled to compare it with the hollywood flick and i feel so...well...weird and awkward of how much they have Indianised this awesome movie.. Cameron Diaz and Tom Cruise just cannot be replaced ever..Songs+some really illogical things+Indianisation = Bang Bang.. However, if you still wanna enjoy it then do not keep in mind the original flick or else you will never wanna watch Katrina or Hritik act ever,,!!

22 Jump Street (2014)

Its the season on sequels..the much awaited 22 jump street had a lot of new stuff to offer compared to the prequel..This superior sequel was the role reversals time for both our main actors ... Going to school wasnt enough that now they get go to college..However, somewhere with too many college movies in the fray this did look out of sync at times...Nevertheless, it did catch some fantastic moments ... This is one gr8 awesome movie to watch over the weekend :)

The Purge : Anarchy (2014)

Where the first one was constrained to a particular house, this was goes on a rampage...goes with a total chaotic message to the people of the newly liberated country... The Annual purge brings out the good and bad in us all ..But the real deal is here..and its spreading..Yes, the annual purge is now total anarchy...! Do watch out for this sequel coz am waiting for the next one :)

Deliver Us From Evil (2014)

Eric Bana, a whole lot of expectations from this guy and he turned out to be average in it...maybe coz of the storyline ? Nevertheless, just another scary movie with the account of "based on a true story" which does keep you engaged at times but then you can guess the plots, the aftermath, etc, etc..a can watch movie for the sleepless nights :)

Sex Tape (2014)

Bold, and more like sex, sex, sex .. the bad teacher couple seemed like an interesting cast but however after the end of the movie the charisma just waded off... had a good story line but somewhere just had lost the plot ... Overall, could have been done better but can be watched for time pass :)

The Maze Runner (2014)

Not another teen movie ?? Well no, its way better than just that...! Based on novels, the series of movies gives a very good start..Keeps you engaged till the very end with its enthralling curiosity.. Just when you think its all over it starts all over again to tell you there is no end to their destined faith.. Waiting for the next movies ... :)

Haider (2014)

'To be or not be' - Is that the whole movie..?? Well, no (or maybe yes)!! Welcome to the real KASHMIR (no its not jammu, its only Kashmir) .. Each and every point there was this question 'to be or not to be'..Though HAIDER was the main subject, it showed the beauty , mesmerizing sceneries of Kashmir ; the army, AFSPA, Militants, Jihadis and most importantly the psychological trauma and aftermath that people of Kashmir go through (at some scenes it was an irony to the picture portrayed to the outside world, a true personification of human tragedy)... No, its not only action but its more of drama, dark ground realities.. A brilliant performance by Shahid Kapoor (best till now), Shradha and a special mention of Tabu and K.K. Menon as usual outstanding..The whole Haider concept blended with Hamlet went way too deep to touch the chords of soul... PS : 'Chutspa' :P :P (Dont forget this word) NOTE : Please watch Bang Bang if ur intrstd only in action coz this one

Mardaani (2014)

One of the best movies of 2014..!! A perfect blend of the topic of human trafficking with suspense and thriller..!! Rani Mukherjee.... way way awesome..!! a really worth watch movie.. wish it could always run packed in theatres... Amazing movie..!!!!!!!!

Koyelaanchal (2014)

Set in the modern day India wherein some parts of India are still under the influence of the Coal Mafia... yes, this movie is all about a place/man/plot called Koyelaanchal... With all the elements available at its disposable it does use them brilliantly at times but then falls short of its true full potential.. Could have certainly been better with more invigorating drama.. If only and if it could have been better, it could have been another gangs of wasseypur.. :)

Million Dollar Arm (2014)

Based on a true story.. 2 Indians get picked up for "baseball" pro training in the US. It did have some sparks here and there but since its based on a true story, whatever could have been put in here has been embedded,. a little laughs with some reality bites and seriousness and a good hindi portions of hindi talking..

Fading Giglo (2013)

And amazing... Woody Allen and John Tururro have simply outperformed...!! Not the guilt trip movie which i was expecting...but something more.. something that is an instant hit with the different take on society of brooklyn .. a true must watch if you can digest the bold initiatives taken by the movie..

Thir13en Ghosts (2001)

A 2001 movie making any sense in 2014 ? maybe, maybe not.. not the usual horror movies that i have come across... just wanted to see if there is actually something in it..good new concept but it lacked conviction.. just an over-do to make it commercially viable...could have certainly been better..

Rover (2014)

An Australian film is usually never bustling like american movies and this one does justify that.. Set in "10 years after the collapse", giving a clear indication of how fucked up the country is... But the journey is all about "the rover"... of all the cars exisiting in the world post the collapse only his luxurious car remains... And the story is all about that car.. NOTE : Brutal and bloody, slow but engaging...
