Neer Dose

Full of double meanings and metaphorical references to the unspoken stuff of life. Something for which Jaggesh became very famous for, and I guess that is the reason why he was casted for this movie. The only reason, and the only reason, why I saw this movie was because the credits at the beginning of the movie was very creative and innovative, much like Malayalam movies. Unfortunately the movie was downright pathetic. Some of the scenes were absolutely yucky and some were ok-dokey. But the tale in itself has no stuff in it. Waste of time.

Rating: Pathetic.

Bridge of Spies

 Absolutely unbelievable tale. Just unthinkable that this can be a 'true story'. A corker of a movie from Steven Spielberg, and Tom Hanks is superlative in his role. Full marks for narration, setting (1950s), screenplay and 'international' dialog. Watch it to believe it!

Rating: Must see

Tamasha

 Found this to be a very insightful drama. Superb acting by Deepika & Ranbir. Tale itself is very well narrated and in fact very spiritual in nature. This is more of a musical movie where some parts of the story are depicted via songs, so the musician and lyricist have to be superlative, and they do not let you down. Direction is good.

 Stopped watching this movie midway through. Perhaps saw about 55 minutes. Although movie-making seemed ok-dokey, the tale seemed too whacky. I guess it was meant to be comical but I didn't find it so. Direction seemed very thin. Dialog especially with the foreigners was rib-tickling. Not sure if rest of the movie could have turned my views.
