Recently seen movies - 6 - Page 3

The movies I recently tried to watch, but couldn't complete them are:
Table no 21- meh not sold.
Race 2- waste of time.
Da vinci code- As bad the book is, the movie is even worse. The book is at least one time read. Bad acting, bad editing.

Good to see the Meryl Streep love. As I always joke - who is the biggest Khan in Bollywood? Meryl Streep. No movie star can beat Meryl Streep.

Saw Swades again...this movie never fails to mesmerize me and makes me all teary-eyed

Everytime I see this movie...I feel like I notice new things...like the small details that Gowarikar had paid attention to...this movie is Gowarikar and SRK's bet work till date. I absolutely cannot believe that SRK didn't get a national award for this performance and f**king Saif Ali khan got it for Hum Tum...W*F was that...this thing will piss me off for life ughhh

This also happens to be my family's favourite movie...and the NRI element just makes it more relatable for my whole family. Whenever I watch this movie it makes me all sad as to which direction is India going and tells me that motherland needs all its children to progress (I am getting too patriotic I know 😆)

It makes me leave everything and run back to India and help the country in anyway possible...but I guess I am not as strong as SRK's character Mohan & my life isn't a movie.

Lastly special kudos to UTV for producing a movie like this and shout out to AR Rahman for that marvellous music...I mean this movie wouldn't have been what it is without the BGM.

Anyone who hasn't seen this movie...please do yourself a favour and watch it

This one gets 5/5 all the way

May I just add that this is the best BGM ever used in Indian cinema

Nah-uh. I am new on the Streep bandwagon. 😆 What films would you recommend me? I'd like to watch something that has an emotional core and value, like Sophie's Choice. And I'd like it if she has a good screentime.

I highly recommend Kramer vs. Kramer and Bridges of Madison County. Those are classics. Not as intense as Sophie's Choice, but movies with depth. She was stunning as Thatcher in Iron Lady, but that is a much slower moving movie. Doubt is also a really good film. The entire cast and the drama in that is good.

After the intense movies, you have to see some of her recent feel good films like Julie/Julia. The Devil Wears Prada and Mama Mia.  You will see her range and versatility and timing. Mama Mia may have tanked in the BO, but god damn! Meryl Streep! Indeed, she could be cast as Batman and be the right choice!
