YAMLA PAGLA DEEWANA is a hardcore mass entertainer that fulfils the expectations of the aam junta. Those who love Deols will adore this one, while those who don't, won't ignore it either. The film works big time for its mass-appealing second half and loads of entertainment it has to offer. The target audience is the masses and it is this segment of movie-going audience that should carry this film to success. Business at single screens should be exceptional, while the film should set new benchmarks in North India [Punjab specifically]. Internationally too, the film should perform the best in U.K., U.S.A. and Canada.

No one killed jessica:
The review:
“No One Killed Jessica” is based on the story of Jessica Lall murder case which took place in Delhi at a New Years party in 1999.
The film beautifully portrays the incident and traces the entire trial period where evidence is tampered, witnesses are brought and justice denied.
Director Rajkumar Gupta narrates the true story behind the Jessica Lall murder case with the help of power packed performance by Vidya Balan who plays the role of Sabrina Lall, Jessica’s sister and Rani Mukherjee who plays the role of Mira, a journalist.
The film has beautifully written dialogues and a brilliant script. The film unleashes myriad emotions in the audiences. It makes the audiences feel angry, frustrated, sad and bitter with respect to the umpteen flaws in our legal and administrative machinery.
But above all it fills the minds of the audiences and the common people with confidence and hope about one’s self.
Vidya Balan’s role as Sabrina steals the show with her absolute ordinariness, her quiet courage, and her completely denying the fact that somebody with a pistol in his hand can shoot a person for a mere drink.
Vidya’s body language and her travelling in Delhi public transport aimlessly throws light on how the common people survive in India against all odds with dignity and courage.
The high drama in the film, the spunky audio track by Amit Trivedi and the arresting performances especially by Vidya and Rani makes the film a must watch.

REVIEW:
An exciting start introduces you to a gamut of cartoon characters who largely represent real-life stereotypes but have potential to entertain. Unfortunately, the length of the film is restricted by the attention span of the target audience, clearly under 10. Hence, no justice can be done to any of those characters. So, you are left with a mish-mash of characters that just about stay together as a story. A story of a father wanting to be a hero for his kids, so what if it is fighting cartoons with the help of cartoons.
I'm sure kids below ten will enjoy the film, its gimmickry, slapstick included. But, I don't really like the idea of well-endowed women trying to move it and attract the attention of a man they woo by calling him handsome and hot. More so because these women are animated and meant to entertain kids
Sure, there's more to the film than the vamp, the anti-vamp and the wife who's insecure of women in sketch. I liked the bit where a dad's presence at a school race is more important to a child than the race itself. Similarly, it felt warm to see the importance a dad gives to his son's admonition and name-calling because the dad sees truth in it.
But this warmth fizzles out as characters are introduced and you are disconnected slowly and surely from one and all. You don't root for anyone and you aren't scared for anyone's safety because of the threat the villain poses. In fact, the villain isn't given enough screen time to make an impact at all; most of it is hogged by Ajay Devgn and his childish antics.

Review:
Farah Khan knows exactly what she wants (rather what she can get) from her cast and employs them to that effect. With her trademark film-inside-film setting, when she wants someone to play the role of a boisterous, atrocious and artificial actor in her film, the natural choice is Akshaye Khanna.
Katrina is cast as the quintessential Bollywood actress who has to wear more makeup and less clothes and do practically nothing in the film. The biggest novel (rather navel) factor she brings to the film is her super-sexy midriff and her hip-hot gyrations. With Akshay Kumar coming into picture, Farah seems to leave behind her Manmohan Desai masala method and adapts her film to brother Sajid Khan’s slapstick sensibilities.
Ten minutes into the film and Tees Maar Khan (Akshay Kumar) is introduced in the league of two other chindi chors, though he makes claims of being an international crime master. His latest assignment is to loot a locomotive loaded with valuables worth crores. Since the booty is in bulk, he would need help from many hands.
Khan hatches a plan to shoot a fictitious film in a village from where the train passes and use the oblivious villagers to rob the train. He lures superstar Aatish Kapoor (Akshaye Khanna), who aims for an Oscar Award, into his mock movie and casts his wannabe-actress girlfriend Anya (Katrina Kaif) as the leading lady.

Robot in hindi
Review:
He dynamic and highly-celebrated duo of Shankar and Rajnikanth are back with the year’s most expensive and much-awaited film ‘Robot’. This big-budget science-fiction and action-packed film is deemed to be the costliest Tamil film ever made, or more precisely, the most expensive Asian film ever made. Directed by the hottest Tamil filmmaker Shankar, the movie has been produced by Kalanidhi Maran and distributed by Sun Pictures. The signature fusion music has been composed by Oscar winner music maestro A.R. Rahman, while the lyrics have been written by Swanand Kirkire. ‘Robot’ is set to release on 24th September, 2010 along with its original version as ‘Enthiran’ in Tamil and dubbed adaptation ‘Robo’ in Telugu.
What do you get when you cross man, machine and mohabbat? This is the basic concept that ‘Robot’ relies on. The flick entails the story of a scientist and his hard-earned robot, both played by Rajnikant himself. Scientist Dr. Vaseegaran has created an andro humanoid robot named ‘Chitti’, with all the features of a typical human being: dancing, singing, fighting and resistance to water and fire. A sure-shot challenge to the real human being indeed! But what happens when this artificially intelligent Chitti, initially created to help human beings and contribute towards the country’s development, starts developing a soft corner for Sana (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan)? This is where Dr. Vasu faces the obstacles of utilizing Chitti for the main purpose so created.
Will Dr. Vasu be able to re-transform Chitti back into the exceptionally sharp-memorized robot? Or will he have to fight back his own creation to save himself? With the trailers on-air already creating waves about the success of the movie, director S. Shankar and Rajnikanth can only keep their fingers crossed. Ash fans will get to see their talented actor in a hot and beautiful new avatar. Shot across different parts of the world, namely, United States, Switzerland, South Africa and Peru, ‘Robot’ is expected to break all box office records only to create a new smashing one. Let’s wait will September 24th, 2010 and see whether the extraordinary pairing of Rajnikanth and Aishwarya Rai would be victorious in creating ripples among the audience or not.
Harry Potter and the deathly hallows part-1 in hindi
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 is a curious film. Long stretches in it are a dull slog but many sequences are also gripping and surprisingly emotional. Director David Yates and writer Steve Kloves have split JK Rowling’s sprawling and intricate last book into two films. So this one has no discernable narrative arc or climax and feels instead like a set-up.
It’s all the information you need to see the next film, which will give us the final, epic battle between Harry and the Dark Lord Voldermort.
Our heroes – Harry played by Daniel Radcliffe, Ron played by Rupert Grint and Hermione played by Emma Watson – are no longer in the protective confines of Hogwarts, the school of magic and wizardry. Their beloved headmaster Dumbledore is dead.
The Ministry of Magic has been taken over by ultra-conservative, neo-Fascist leaders and Voldermort’s followers are on the rise. This is a dark world, with little cheer or love to break the atmosphere of relentless gloom. At one point, even the three friends, exhausted, desperate and horrifically sad, tear into each other.
This is the dreariest Harry Potter movie yet but what’s more problematic is, that it’s also the most arcane. Viewers who haven’t read the books or seen all the previous films will be lost in the complex plot, which involves the search for Horcruxes which are objects into which Voldemort has hidden parts of his soul and the search for the Deathly Hallows, three objects which make the person who possesses them death-proof.
Clearly Yates has no interest in catering to non-Potter fans and yet the film is so full of exposition that it becomes ponderous. There are of course several almost fatal attacks by the dark side and just as many escapes. These action scenes are nicely orchestrated—there is a real suspense and sense of danger—but after a while, the pattern becomes predictable.
What’s more interesting is the human emotion and interaction between the three friends including a not-in-the-book scene, in which Harry and Hermione dance together, even as death surrounds them.
These actors, who have literally grown up in front of us, have wholly become these characters and yet, their acting doesn’t have enough heft, to support the almost static mid-section of the film.
At no point does their predicament devastate you. Eventually then, Harry Potter is grim business—children under ten will find it very scary—but check it out anyway as preparation for the last film, which you will have to see, even if it’s only to give the world’s most successful film franchise, closure.
