The Movie Thread

Pan's Labyrinth - a visual treat, though the movie is a bit slow.
One Hour Photo - Never thought Robin Williams could give the creeps!!
Inside Man - Edge of the seat stuff. Denzel Washington seems to have a thing for playing cop.

Watched "Bombay to Bangkok"

About a thief who escapes from the Mumbai underworld don (after grabbing the don's money) and flees to Bangkok with the medical team that is going for relief work.

There he gets into hilarious situations and falls in love with a girl who is expert in massaging and making customers happy.

Watch it once when you have time. Its funny in parts.

maddy42 · 25th January 2008, 20:09

AVP2 : errmm... mixed bag! Too much of human involvement. AVP1 was way better plus the ending isn't good.

6/10.

Just looked up yahoo movies-
Rambo (2008) - User Reviews - Yahoo! Movies

Pretty good reviews so far.

normally_crazy · 25th January 2008, 22:35

Just saw SUNDAY. Pretty ok for a one time watch. Nothing great though but Irfan Khan rocks. Watch it if you have nothing to do on a holiday.

Rating - 2.5/5

Our desi critics seem to differ

Rambo-kanth is getting old

I am giving it a skip. Not because of this review but generally not a big fan of Rambo series.

Will watch Sunday on Sunday

3:10 to yuma
The best western in the last 15 years.
Performances by Christian bale (Batman begins) as a one legged rancher and Ben Foster as Crowe's sidekick just blow U away.Russell Crowe is amazing ,but its just another day in office for him.
Movie's nominated for two oscars already.
MUST WATCH!
Some dialogues from the movie:

Doc Potter: Is it true that you dynamited a wagon full of prospectors in the western territories last spring?
Ben Wade: No, that's a lie... It was a train full.

Ben Wade: I've always liked you Byron, but you never know when to shut up. Even bad men love their mommas.
