    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Ugly

    After 'Gangs of Wasseypur' director Anurag Kashyap turns from the badlands of India towards Mumbai---the economic capital of India.... But the feel of this movie is the same---dark , gripping and gritty.... He had the chance to show some nice and glitzy locations , and some high octane...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---PK

    In all of Amir Khan's films his hard work shows . PK is no exception . A lot of toil and hard work has been put into every scene , into every dialogue , and into every expression on Amir's face . He certainly carries the whole weight of the film on his capable shoulders , but I would not dare...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Chaar Sahibzaade ( Hindi 3D )

    It was a supremely tragic tale of heroism and martyrdom and sacrifice that this land had produced....and my eyes were already brimming with tears even before the movie began.... For those who don't know---the movie deals with the real life martyrdom of the four sons of the last guru of the Sikh...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Bang Bang

    Bang Bang is pure make believe stuff with not an ounce of reality . Consider this---the villain is whisking away the heroine taking her far away from the hero . And at that very moment , the hero sees a formula one car being unloaded from it's container and promptly grabs control of it and...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Haider

    Liberals rule the roost in Bollywood . And their version of liberalism nowadays consists of portraying the very forces that defend the Indian state and on whom the state depends for survival ( like the armed forces for instance ) as villains . In other countries such a portrayal of the forces...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Pizza ( Released In 3D )

    Usually we ( especially the women ) are told to be careful about any kind of courier or delivery boy coming to our house , especially when we are alone . Who knows , the delivery boy may be a thief who may steal things when we go inside to take our wallet to pay the delivery bill , or he may...

    The state of Uttar Pradesh---rustic heart of the real India.... And at the banks of the Ganges river is a small town which is the center for the manufacture of home made revolvers known as 'kattey' in plural.... ......For the 'katta' plays an important part in the politics of the...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Deliver Us From Evil

    The film should have been titled '' O lord , deliver us from all evil ''---the first evil being non belief in the lord himself ....for it shows the journey of a New York police officer from non belief towards belief to the point where he gives up his job as police officer to join the priest who...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Daawat E Ishq

    For the first time I realised that dowry is a pan Indian phenomenon . I used to think that this pernicious custom is prevalent only among the hindu community . But the movie shows even muslims taking dowry from a girl's father in exchange for marrying their sons to the daughter. And it is custom...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Khubsoorat

    Sonam Kapoor is the perfect material for livening up your dreary life !! The shot of adrenaline that changes your mundane existence and brings back zest and vigor in your household !! The livewire that livens up dead things bringing back the energy !! But you got to be liberal with her...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Finding Fanny ( English Version )

    The partly Christian state of Goa in India ; the Christian population being a legacy of Portuguese colonialism---where people lead laidback carefree lives amidst the idyll of nature.... ......And in the interior of Goa is a village called Pocolim---a place that development has forgotten , a...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Mardaani

    'Mardaani' tells the story of a goodlooking female cop ( played by Rani Mukherjee ) who literally wears the pants in her house and also in the film---for her husband is reduced to a sidekick as far as his role in the film is concerned . From her language at least , she seems to be marathi police...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review - Couple Of Old Movies I Saw On Dvd

    Memoirs of a geisha ( 2005 )--- The setting is Japan , where Geishas have their own place in society . Narration of the film is done in the wonderfully old voice of a Geisha who has been through the ups and downs of life . And as is typical in the life stories of fallen women ( and a...

    It's the age of computers and digital cameras inside mobile phones and hi tech gadgets made with techno wizardry.... But inspite of all the progress man has made , he has no control over nature.... And when nature unleashes it's fury , man is as helpless as he was in the stone age...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Hercules 3D

    Dwayne Johnson of 'The fast and furious' fame playing the role of the mighty Hercules---this very fact meant that the film had an air of frivolousness in it.... ....For Dwayne certainly has the body of a Hercules , but does he have the seriousness in his acting and the intensity to carry out...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---The Grand Budapest Hotel

    'The grand Budapest hotel' does invoke nostalgia for the old times . Those times are long gone---trampled by nazi jackboots and later crushed by the dead hand of communism , for Budapest in this movie is a metaphor for central Europe ; Budapest being the capital of central European nation of...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Humpty Sharma Kee Dulhaniya

    This is one film with a massive DDLJ ( Dilwale dulhaniya le jayenge movie ) hangover . And it has no qualms about admitting that fact openly , but does not have the budget/money to reproduce ithe magic of DDLJ . While DDLJ showed us Switzerland , this film shuttles between Delhi and Ambala...

    Movies Ashdoc's Movie Review---Hate Story Part 2

    Hate story part 1 had delivered on both storyline , acting and above all on the oomph and sex scenes . The promos of part 2 promised the same . So off I went to the theater licking my lips in anticipation of some mouthwatering skin show and explicit sex scenes between the hero and heroine ...
