Movie Reviews:
1.Rise of the Planet of the Apes: VERY VERY GOOD. See it. Nothing more to say. More than Franco and Pinto, that 3d monkey is a star. Plus it all fits into the first movies universe (Planet of the Apes -with Mark Wahlberg). Oh the Girillas and the bigger apes are AWESOME.
2.Capt.America: Didnt like it much. loved the 50s sets. But other thn that, Cap didnt do it for me. Thor was more enjoyable. I wish they hadnt named it with the prefix: "Capt. Anmerica", and just called it "the First Avenger", since "America" is a very loaded word and can evoke various emotions around the world.
On the plus side, iun the crediits, there was an Avengers trailer, directed by Whedon next year. THAT will be worth seeing.
3.Zindagi Na Milegi Do Bara: Rich young ppl having fun in Spain. They overcome a series of problems and adventure sports that dont seem that relevant. It seemed like Hrithik ROshan, Abbey Deol, Farhan Aktar (and the girls). just wanted to go on a holday in spain and they shot the story parts of the movie in between their vacation. It is FUN to watch however coz its beautiful ppl living the lives we all wish we had (mostly) Watch it if ur a sucker for shallow plot but FUN visuals iin bollywood. Its FUN. For you.
4. Shaitan (alittle late i know): Rich young ppl having fun in Mumbai. In the end, their life on the edge with drugs and mischeif blows up and they get scrwed. Spome of them die. Some of them live. The main protagonist has issues regarding her diseased mother. I dont know what Im supposed tot ake away form this. You want to see a movie along the same lines that is actually SOLID, see "Requiem for a dream" if u havent seen it. It may not be SAME, but its better. VIsuals are not bad. Gritty and cColourful. THe ad promotions were highly overdoen with a DEv D feel to make u feel like we were getting that again. But no. Sorry. Again FUN yet, thats it.
5. Bheja Fry 2: WTF. Shoot me now. Spoilt everything. Please dont see it.

God, I sound like I am against Hindi films. Im not. Honest.
I cant wait for Farhan Aktars next directorial venture: Don 2.
