Earth (1998)
A mind numbing film
I would not go into the details about the story. The brief description: story is about Dilnawaz, Lenny baby, Ayah and Hassan, four people and their experiences at the time of partition (one the most devastating events ever happened in the world)
Six reasons why you should watch this movie:
1. Aamir Khan's stunning portrayal of the character Dilnawaz. He brings the character to life. In the films's first half you can find some grey shades in the character. But in the second half the character becomes black. And this transformation is shown by aamir brilliantly. 2. Authenticity of the film. The setting of the film looks so real that you don't have to go into some imagination to feel what Lahore was like then 3. Musical score by A.R.Rahman. Both background score and songs fit into the film well. Especially the rut agayire, raat ki dal dal and yeh jo zindagi song 4. Direction of Deepa Mehta. Deepa Mehta has come long way after fire. Fire was not made for wider audiences. But this film is related to the universal concept which is religious conflicts. I salute her for making the film neither anti-Muslim nor anti-Hindu or anti-Sikh. This film shows that it was everybody's mistake. I also admire her for putting some scenes like Lenny and his friend meet a boy whose mother was raped (superb scene). 5. Wonderful depiction of the character Lenny baby by young actress Maia sethna. Especially at the movie's end. 6. A disturbing train scene and climax of the movie. The two scenes will haunt you for many years. They are so disturbing scenes that you will have sleepless nights. really mind numbing
I rate this movie 9/10.
Finding Nemo (2003)
best animated film i have ever seen
An animated film, on the life in the ocean. This was the film I was waiting for. Hats off to Pixar studio, for making such an amazing film. They explored a whole lot of space left in the world the ocean. An also a story about a father who is in search of his son, it sounds a little schmaltzy, but you will love this emotion when you watch the film Marlin is the father who is in search of his son Nemo. His son is trapped by the fishermen and is now in an aquarium in a dentist's room.
All the characters in the fish tank were amazing The most amazing fish (character) was Dory who helps Marlin in finding her son. And the fun part is that she has a short term memory loss. This added the funny flavor to the film. And the sharks who take an oath that they will never eat a fish were the funniest of them all. This film is for everybody in the family. I rate this film 9/10
Lakshya (2004)
just one step behind to be called a masterpiece
Though it is one step behind but i still feel that this film is milestone in bollywood film industry. This film was underrated by the critics of bollywood because they are used to the same old masala films. This film shows that the two masters of bollywood are here. One is Farhan Akthar who can(i hope) rise the film making standards of bollywood to international standards
Another one is Hrithik Roshan.He is an superb perfect actor in a making He is growing as an actor by every film. I think he will become my all time fav actor of bollywood after om puri n amir khan.
The most difficult thing which was attempted in this movie was shootin war scenes at night n "the scenes were pretty authentic" In technical aspects the movie is benchmark for bollywood i would rate 8.5/10
