Near-maniacal passion for books, movies and music; Distaste for politics; Dispassion for religion - Me! Tuesday, January 12, 2010. However, there were quite a few "boring" sessions as well - most of the songs were not required. Sharman awakening from the coma took quite a bit of screen time - this is a flashback, and we have already seen Sharman hale 'n' hearty, for chrissakes! However, all said, this was leagues above the regular stuff that Bollywood turns out. - extremely enjoyable movie. Pranchiyettan...

Near-maniacal passion for books, movies and music; Distaste for politics; Dispassion for religion - Me! Friday, May 20, 2011. Conversation with a Saint: Bullet Point Report. Pranchiyettan …”. Is, I believe, director Ranjit giving the finger to those who had labeled him a “Hinduvta” director after a series of movies such as. Devasuram, Ravanaprabhu, Nandanam, Prajapathy. I can remember no other movie that has used the town and its slang as an important facet in the movie. 8221; sequence from “. Jagathy co...

Occupied Space: 7-am Arivu: Bullet Point Report
http://occupiedspace.blogspot.com/2011/11/7-am-arivu-bullet-point-report.html
Near-maniacal passion for books, movies and music; Distaste for politics; Dispassion for religion - Me! Monday, November 28, 2011. 7-am Arivu: Bullet Point Report. 7-am Arivu is Surya’s “Dasavatharam”, and I certainly do not mean that as a compliment. The first 20 minutes is paisa-vasool; but the next 2 hours provide several cringe-worthy moments that almost make you forget the first half. Just asking ;). Murugadoss finds a kick-ass villain, and still botches it up big time. First he overdoes the hyp...

Occupied Space: Bhramaram (A Circular Journey): Review
http://occupiedspace.blogspot.com/2010/06/bhramaram-circular-journey-review.html
Near-maniacal passion for books, movies and music; Distaste for politics; Dispassion for religion - Me! Thursday, June 03, 2010. Bhramaram (A Circular Journey): Review. Spoilers ahead * *. My gut tells me that “Bhamaram” would have worked awfully better as a true road move, with a firm editor holding the scissors. Bharathan’s “Thazhvarom” is an excellent example of a film in a similar genre being handled in a much more controlled manner. Bhramaram I think means Vandu in malayalam rite? Vantage Point (Gau...

Occupied Space: December 2011
http://occupiedspace.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Near-maniacal passion for books, movies and music; Distaste for politics; Dispassion for religion - Me! Thursday, December 01, 2011. RaOne – Bullet Point Report. All the scenes involving Ra.One - except for the climax - are well executed. Sadly, the movie has other scenes too. This has to be one of the worst opening sequences in any film, ever. Its official; SRK should not ever do long hair again (unless he plays Lizardman or something similarly reptile-like). What is it with SRK and Tamilian spoofs?

Occupied Space: Favorite Nazi Movies
http://occupiedspace.blogspot.com/2011/10/first-week-of-october-is-historically.html
Near-maniacal passion for books, movies and music; Distaste for politics; Dispassion for religion - Me! Monday, October 03, 2011. The first week of October is historically significant, for it marked the first crack in the wall for the Nazi regime (Naples fell to the Allies on Oct I, and marked the beginning of the end). I wanted to take this as an inspiration on some of my favorite Nazi movies. Not a Nazi movie in the strictest sense of the word (although it does involve Neo Nazism), this is more a comme...

Occupied Space: Naan Kadavul
http://occupiedspace.blogspot.com/2009/04/naan-kadavul.html
Near-maniacal passion for books, movies and music; Distaste for politics; Dispassion for religion - Me! Sunday, April 05, 2009. After watching the much hyped 'Naan Kadavul' from Bala, who is one of the few directors whose movies I await, my first impression was - is this all Bala could conjure up after the wonderful 'Pithaamagan'? A lot of the faults that Bala had appeared to shed with Pithaamagan (and with Nandhaa, to a lesser extent) - coarse melodrama, for one,. Have resurfaced here with a vengeance.

Occupied Space: Tees Maar Khan – Review

Near-maniacal passion for books, movies and music; Distaste for politics; Dispassion for religion - Me! Monday, January 10, 2011. Tees Maar Khan – Review. The first 10 minutes are fun, and that is about it. The next 2.5 hours leave you reeling with the agony of watching an impossibly painful movie. Don’t believe me? And write her own scripts. Eating humble pie and teaming up with SRK again would probably be a terrific idea as well. Verdict: DO.NOT.WATCH. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Scaredy Cat by...
