The
posters of this movie can be really misleading till you watch the movie which has in depth story which is really heartwarming and leaves you wanting more.
The movie starts as a generic sex comedy but takes you by surprise and there starts a good love story which has both depth and enjoyable and interesting at the same time.
Yes the movie has lot of nudity and evolution of Viagra as well but thats not what the movie is all about..the movie is about discovering love in the most vulnerable situation of one's life and no matter what standing by each other how much ever weird the world thinks about at the end of the day its just about two people and rest of the world should not matter but alas in reality that is always not the case.
Anne Hathaway is one actress whose movies I just do not miss and I am glad I did not miss this one as well she was fantastic and conveys her insecurities so very well as someone who has Parkinson in stage one,she emotes so well her eyes kind of speak to you.
The chemistry between Anne Hathaway is sheer brilliant they both connect physically as well as mentally just so well.
Loved Jake in pharma sales guy's role every sales person like me could connect to him in some way or the other in someway or the other it was sheer pleasure to watch him,after all he is good looking and a great actor.
Issues such as serious illness, the workings of the big pharmaceutical companies and their attempts to influence the decision making of medical professionals, the struggle people have to pay for treatment are portrayed very well in this movie quite realistic must say.
And the era of mid and late ninetees are very well projected with pager and mobiles just coming up.
I really liked this movie and was quite surprised and very pleasantly at that.
Recommended recommended recommended :) So thats how much I liked the movie :)

Burlesque - Awesome Musical
It was absolutely fantastic to watch this awesome musical the art of burlesque comes alive with the magic of both Christina Aguilera and Cher and rest of the star cast the performers at the stage to be precise.
Wow what a strong voice Christina Aguilera has got, her sequences in the movie are just wow and has a great impact for sure.
The story is simple something which I am sure you have seen before small town girl coming to big city with lot of dreams to make it big and going through her set of turmoil and finally sets for the actual destination she came for and the journey which is so interesting and makes this movie worth a watch for sure.
Burlesque is real high on entertainment I am talking about Music of course and it is the music which makes it so good.
Loved the scenes between Cher and Stanley Tucci very emotional and funny too.
Stanley Tucci stands out as Cher's right-hand gay best friend/costume designer in this film.
Cher is excellent and powerful.
The costume design, casting, choreography and set design for this film are absolutely fantastic.
This is one dying art which should not never die
This movie is not a masterpiece but super fun to watch for sure.Enjoyable and recommended.

The Color Purple - Steven Spielberg's unforgettable classic
Based on Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize winning Story this movie is one of those lesser heard movies but wow what a movie.
Steven Spielberg sure did come up with a winner of a movie with this one not very popular though I guess but I guess true gems in real life are always hidden as we always like the glam sham of the artificial world.
Like life this movie has equal share of happiness and sadness so people looking out feel good light movies should stay away from this one but if you are someone who appreciates good cinema I can guarantee you this will remain etched in your minds for the years to come and will inspire you for sure,if you are strong willed no matter what you will surely emerge as the winner yes there will be a struggle of course but the end result is something .
Like most of Steven Spielberg's movies there were no special effects, no swashbuckling, just brilliant story-telling based on a literary classic but what a powerful movie I am super bowled glad I came up with this one while looking out for movies starring Oprah Winfrey.This was Steven Spielberg's first foray into serious powerful cinema before his empire of the sun and schindlers list
The depth in the story is enormous each time I saw Whoopi Goldberg tortured in the movie I just wanted to go and kill the person who was playing her husbands role.Whoopi Goldberg is just out of the world.
Oprah Winfrey too shines out in a brief but powerful role.
I am so glad I was not born when this world was a male dominated one by torturous men I salute those women who stood up against them and paved way for us.Thank you.
This is an unforgettable which should not be missed.Recommended .

Blue Valentine - Heartbreaking
I solely wanted to watch this movie as a part of Oscar mania yes this movie is not nominated but the actress Michelle Williams is nominated under Best Actress category not sure though whether she truly deserved it but yes she did play her part really well as the sad person torn between love and responsibilities towards life.
This movie is about a married couple, showing their evolution and also depleting feelings towards each other over a span of years by cross-cutting between time periods, so every time the movie goes to this flashback which initially I did find difficult to follow but then I did manage to get the grip of the story and found it sad,depressing and heartbreaking to the extent that I started wondering why people ever take the decision of getting for all the wrong reasons possible under the sun and the aftermath of union only causes hurt and pain to all around so what is the point?
Let me be honest and tell you upfront this is no feel good movie but a movie which kind of introspects the reasons of how and why relationships fail.
Both Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams has given brilliant performances I think the void in Michelle's life due to loss of Heath Ledger is quite obvious I am sure she is still missing him badly.
I will never watch this movie again no its not boring but leaves a very sad feeling.

Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji - Nice hindi movie to round up Jan'2011
Must say January 2011 was a bumper month for Bollywood releases they have had real good openings and running's since the release of the movie 'No One Killed Jessica' and hope this run continues ultimately movie making is loads of hard work so both commercial success and positive feedback does matter for sure.
When I saw the trailer of this movie of course I knew I was going to watch this one and having made by an accomplished director like Madhur Bhandarkar and with a real good ensemble cast of Ajay Devgan,Omi Vaidya and the others I just had to watch but wasn't really sure if Madhur had handled the humor bit well as he is a master of making realistic cinemas and out and out commercial movies has been never been his forte but this movie comes as a pleasant surprise I guess a good filmmaker can always make a good entertaining cinema given any subject.
The movie revolves around three guys - Ajay,Omi and Emran and their perspectives about love and the various situations they face in their respective lives to find that something called love and somehow I feel there is nothing called true love its all a matter of convenience and priorities and that is something very very well brought up in this movie.
Yes we need one another but we can still live and live very without that one another...Life Goes On and thats for sure.
This is a nice romantic comedy with a lot of realistic incidents thrown which does happen around us.
Worth a watch for sure.
