Kwatle Satisa

A quirky title led my wife and me to watch this movie. It started very simply enough but within minutes it turned interesting, and then to humorous to almost like an edge-of-seat-thriller! Very neat and clean acting, good direction with nice set of casting and idyllic middle class setting. The fact that it is a true story jolted me - how can such a thing even happen!

The November Man

Watched a Pierce Brosnan movie in a Bond-like thriller after a long time. Not all that great since there seemed too many missing links but a good time-pass anyways. Editing seemed poor since there were many scenes that were not really needed. But Brosnan is as good as ever despite his age.

Shubh Mangala Saavdhaan

A unique storyline which makes this movie definitely worth a watch - like Piku. Rib-tickling humor peppers up the narration all through the tale because the underlying theme is such. The actors have done a good job - portraying middle class family in a middle class setting. The direction is good and so is the casting.

College Kumar

A nice family drama movie. The first half is predictable but the second half is an eye-opener since it takes a 180 degree U-turn! Performances are average by all actors but full credit to story and screenplay. Casting is ok. Watchable once.
