The Italian Job"A Racy Entertainer"

Monday, May 12, 2008
The film kicks off with the John Bridger (starred by Donald Sutherland) a safe cracker and Mark Whelberg, the mind behind the heist and few others which includes Steve(starred by Edward Norton),stealing millions of worth gold from a gang.But Steve becomes a traitor by killing John and escapes with the loot.

The rest of the gang team up with Stella Bridger (starred by Charlize Thereon), the daughter of John and also an expert safe cracker in her own style evolves a plan to take a revenge against the traitor.
The stunt and chase sequences were well shot and it was very well supported by a good score of background music.The character in this which i liked the most is that of the computer geek Lyle (starred by Seth Green) sweetly called as Napster in the film.
The scenes where Lyle hacks the traffic control system in Los Angels,the Mini Coopers zooming through the Metro Rail tunnel,detects the Truck where the gold had been kept with the help of the air pressure in the tyres was awesome.The dialogues in the film are also to be given a special mention.A sample of those:

"YOU CAN NEVER SHUTDOWN THE REAL NAPSTER"

The meaning of 'fine'-
f -freaked out
i -insecure
n -neurotic
e -emotional

The persons who are crazy about films like Ocean's 11,Gone in 60 seconds,The Bank Job etc. then "The Italian Job" is of that kind.

City of God"Raw and Harsh"

Sunday, May 11, 2008
After a short nap in the weekend, i thought of seeing a movie.So i just went through my dvd collections.I just got hold of the movie "City of GOD".Initially i thought it was some kind of spiritual movie but it wasn't.
City of GOD is a movie based on a place called Cidade de deus in the interior parts of Brazil.It involves the harsh realities of the slum world such as drug rackets, gang war and violence. The movie is mainly based on two characters Rocket and Li'l Dice.During 60’s Tender Trio used to rule City of GOD, Li’l Dice joins them. Li’l dice was very ambitious, and step by step tender trio got eliminated and Li’l Dice become the biggest gangster.Benny is the best friend of Li’l Dice and they both become the Drug lords of the town.

While on the other end, Rocket the narrator of this movie is a photographer who earns by giving some good shots of the town which the other photographers fear to enter this area.

This film is a must watch one but for those who hate violence then this is not the film you are searching for.This film is the English version of the tamil movie 'Pudupettai' and 'Pattiyal'.Some scenes in the movie made me think"Is this really happened"?,"Are these really happening in this world"?.The narrator of this movie hails from Citade de deus.Thanks for him for bringing out such a raw,action packed and a harsh film.

Well to have a glimpse of this film,check out the trailer of this film.

Santhosh Subramaniam"A Photocopy"

Saturday, April 26, 2008
Starring:Jeyam Ravi,Prakash Raj,Jenelia

Movie Director:Raja

Music Composer:Devi Sri Prasad

I was forced by ma friend to watch 'Bomarillu' the telegu version of Santhosh Subramaniam.Intially i showed no interest, later the story made me stick to ma seats.It was a lovely film and especially Jenelia's character was excellently potrayed.Days later i was in the theatre to watch Santhosh Subramaniam.I Know its a remake of Bomarillu but i was shocked to see that the scenes,songs and set has been copied in the same manner from Bomarillu.Wont the director have his own imaginations?Cant Raja(Film Director)direct a film from his own script?There is no problem in remaking the film but why should he copy even the scenes,set and the dialogues too.To one extent i thought that the Sidharth's character in Bomarillu was morphed with that of Jayam Ravi and was screened for us.I would suggest Raja,Jeyam Ravi and Editor Mohan known for their remakes come out with a new film from their own script.

The film is a family entertainer.The Story revolves around Father and Son relationship with the father's attitude of selecting everything for his family right from dress to marriage.The father justifies this attitude that it is his duty of every father.But the son wants his future to be decided by him.How the son makes his father realize his mistake is rest of the story.The romantic scenes in the film were shot good.Since the film has been released during the summer holidays which would attract more audiences,the film is going to be run away hit.

Billa "Style Without Substance"

Sunday, April 6, 2008
Starred by Ajith, Nayanthara, Namitha,Prabhu.

The first expression when u see this film is "Rich,Style and Charisma" which the director has meticulously tried to show Ajith like that on the silver screen.When the initial announcement was made to remake the silver jubilee "Billa" starred by Superstar Rajnikanth, there were talks in the Kollywood that Ajith is no way going to match the style shown by Rajnikanth. But today he has made the whole film industry turn towards him.The man who stood beside encouraging him that he would reach a greater height remaking this film was none other Rajnikanth.

The director had told that he made some changes in the script of the film when compared to the "old" Billa.But in ma point of view,there were no such changes made by him.

The Cinematography of the film was awesome and the whole credit of showing Ajith and the film so stylish goes to him.

The daring stunts in the film performed by Ajith is appreciable.


I cant end this article without reviewing the songs 'My name is Billa' and 'Vethalya Potendi' makes our feet tap since they are remixed from their older versions.The other songs solely composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja does'nt impress the audiences much
