Christopher Nolan RISES.

<    1. Batman kicks some SERIOUS butt - I am in love with his bike
<    2. Why Anne Hathway – she should restrict herself to the cute Princess Diary types roles (she's raw, but there's something missing) 
     a.    You have this jaw-dropping expression towards ‘The End’. Christopher Nolan leaves your yearninggggggggggggggg for more with each passing frame – ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ earns its brownie points with the immaculate dialogues, its delivery and the background score – it simply eats you up!!  A client of mine orchestrates this thought about how its sound that makes you enjoy just about everything. Yes it’s that voice, that sound that makes you go woooooooohhooo – kill it mannnn!
     b. It’s funny how Gotham reminds me of Bombay – Taj on 26/11 (the bank attack) and the countless strikes that my city has endured, and bounced back from
      c.  Mostly important: Heath Ledger – you will remain my best bad daddy. Bane is not 5% as malicious (he’s definitely good; unfortunately up to some matchless competition)
      d.  I love the large frames, the larger than life sets they have created – superlative aerial shot sequences, the dungeons, shades of grey and muck, the music – stellar acts by Christian, Anne, Tom Hardy, John Blake – the film clicks in all parts. We want more!! :-(

Dark Shadows – where?

While Johnny Depp is a natural, his excellent comic timing needs to be used in the right places, and movies! A rather obnoxious profile of a vampire’s life, Dark Shadows is a vain attempt by Depp (unfortunately! he’s quite a relish on screen otherwise) to essay a blood + libido thirsty vampire.


The canvas leaves you spell-bound though, its old England – has to be WOW!

Dark Shadows scores with its background – eerie, scary, flirtatious – the right concoction, however – one would not want to watch a vampire and a witch make out now, while the guitars go tanaaooooo (rather loud) – that’s spooky :/ The plot dips in chunks, makes you wonder….now what are all these people gunning for? The objective is quite unclear I would say… save thy nets l his roots l vengeance… so we witness shades of his characters, and it’s just tooooo funny to watch a vampire get chained by his (worst) half, while he erupts out of bonds which he’s locked in for yearrssssss…  hindi pikcharrrrr this?!      

And then you have the divas Michelle Pfeiffer, Eva Green – these ladies set the screen ablaze with their stellar act!! Jai ho, mahilao ki :p

Net-net, masala pikchar hai yeh, grab that super-expensive L L tub of caramel popcorn and runnnn to your closest multiplex (no you should not download this from DC++, PS: Mahavir Apts)
