I think I chose to talk mostly about Preity’s character in this review, which is interesting enough of a conversation to have. There is just so much in this film!
Continue readingWhat a nice coincidence! Amitabh’s birthday and Yashji’s birthday, both perfectly timed to post a collaberation.
Continue readingI wrote this a while back, it’s deep and long and all about home and community and things. But very little about the romance, which is why I wrote that other review just now just about that.
Continue readingI hit Swades in my scheduled repostings, and I thought it might be fun to write a re-review to go up the same day as the regular review.
Continue readingI like Shahrukh month because it gives me an excuse to write out my feelings in little beautiful thought posts. And no one can speak out against me, because it’s Shahrukh Month! The Holiday Protects!!!!
Continue readingThree review day! I’ve totally lost track of how many movies/days I have left, but I feel like I need to increase my rate of review.
Continue readingI wrote up Kal Ho Na Ho, that guaranteed sob fest, and now it’s time for the guaranteed laugh fest, Main Hoon Na!
Continue readingI was looking for a review to repost and discovered I had done two mini-reviews, one about this film as showing a matriarchy, the other about it as showing an interesting idea of different kinds of love. But no actual regular review! So, time to write that. (previous posts on Matriarchy and on love triangles)
Continue readingThis movie discussion should be a fascinating comparison with my re-review of KANK from yesterday. Both films are about married couples struggling with the distance between who they are as people, and what they feel their married roles should be. Only in this movie, our husband and wife really truly love each other, so they are able to fight their way back together, even when he fails as a provider and she fails as a mother/homemaker.
Continue readingI do not like it AT ALL. Bad movie, bad BAD! You should not like it either and I will try very hard to convince you of that, while being aware that there are poor misguided souls who just keep enjoying this movie. Even though it is Bad and Wrong and Bad!
Continue readingI just reread my original review, and it was quite good, but there are so many other interesting points to discuss that I didn’t even touch upon! I’m excited!
Continue readingYou know why I haven’t reviewed this film before? Because it’s BORING! Boring boring boring! It has this great all star cast, and this great question of matrimony center theme, and yet, DULL! Hopefully I can make reading about it more entertaining than watching it.
Continue readingI’m doing the countdown and reposting the reviews of every film, and writing new reviews of the few I have missed. But what movies do you want me to take a fresh look at? Ones I’ve already reviewed in the past but you are eager to talk about more, and differently? Yes, I will write a 5th (6th? 4th?) review of JHMS if you want.
Continue readingOh, I hope some of you comment on this one! I don’t like it, but I know a lot of you do, and now is the time for you to reveal yourselves and defend yourselves.
Continue readingYet another movie I was sure I had reviewed! But I hadn’t. Oh well. Time to do it now!!!!
Continue readingSpellcheck wants me to replace “Mohabbatein” with “Mountbatten”. This makes me giggle every single time. Do you think it is possible that the whole film is an allegory for Edwina and Nehru’s affair? Amitabh is Mountbatten, Aish is Edwina, Shahrukh is Nehru, the school is India, Anupam Kher is Gandhi? It TOTALLY WORKS.
Continue readingHuh! I thought I was all done with the unreviewed films now that I was in the recent era, but I guess not! Poor sad Josh is hanging out there, unreviewed.
Continue readingDid I forget yesterday? Pretty sure I forgot. Oh well, I’m having a lazy Saturday, so I will just put up three reviews today and make up. Fun fun!
Continue readingLet’s get a conversation going! Because I was up way too late at my movie night last night (we do a zoom call post movie and just talked and talked), and now I am feeling droopy. Also, I feel like we haven’t talked in a while, let’s talk!
Continue readingLike Duplicate, this is a silly fun crazy movie with no depth. And therefore, a total delight!
Continue readingI like polls, but I refuse to use the polls built in tool. I want you to comment so you can say more if you like, and I can ask follow up questions, not just pick something on a list (boring!).
Continue readingSecond general Kuch Kuch post! Oh man, I am so happy just rereading this. KKHH is really my happy place.
Continue readingI haven’t done a for real review of this movie, but I did a series of theme posts a few years back on it. I’m gonna post the two most general of those posts and we will see if people care enough to inspire me to post the others.
Continue readingHappy Wednesday! Should that be “first week of October”? Oh well, either works I guess.
Continue readingI was dreading reviewing this movie and then I thought “well, what if I just don’t? What if instead, I explain to people why I don’t feel able to review it?”
