Movie Reviews

Post by sapphire » Sat, 05 Aug 2006 11:58 pm

Girls! You all should've posted a little more than what you did on the movie 'Omkara'! Watched it today. I think it's an excellent adaptation of Othello. Kudos to Vishal Bhardwaj, who also wrote the dialogues. His 'Maqbool' was another outstanding film based on Macbeth. Seems he has a fondness for Shakespeare. Outdoor locations make such a difference, 'Omkara' was a good example of it yet again.

Saif and Ajay have evolved into such good actors. Saif, in particular, was fab. Konkona Sen, that woman is like a chameleon. Slips into a role with so much ease. Bips looked ravishing as ever, Kareena did a decent job as well. Don't know the name of the guy, would be hubby of Kareena in the movie. He did a great job too.

All those who haven't watched the movie, please do catch it. It's worth it!

Oh and the censor board actually is lenient considering the foul language allowed.

Nice site Batli, thanks! Strikes off 'Anthony Kaun Hai' from my list.

Maybe, 'Darwaza Band Rakho' is a better bet but I don't see myself sitting for three hours to watch it.

Sorry Chix, can't help you there. I don't download movies.

Desitorrent.com, isohunt.com are the two fantastic sites to download almost everything imaginable in the world of software and movies.. you can even download serials.. those never ending saas and bahu serials too..

What you need is bit torrent or azerous software and you are ready to download hindi movies as and when you want..

Yes I do the same, but Cancer_8 the site is www.desitorrents.com. You need to have lot of patience to download movies with bit torrents (it may take couple of days to download a entire movie , it all depends on the ul/dl ratio you maintain else you are categorized as only a leecher and may not get the required no of peers to connect to). It is fun do give it a try Chix.

Thats true. Usually the best strategy is to download movies and keep seeding them. meaning keep the torrent client running even when you are not downloading. The files downloaded become available for sharing and you always make sure that you maintain a good ratio to support the community.

Torrents are still the best option we have to download free stuff. If you are sitting on a fast connection, you will get pretty good dw speed and with some configuration of the port at which your client is running on, you can futher tune it up to get better download speed.

If you thought 'Munnabhai MBBS' was funny, then you must watch "Lage Raho Munnabhai'. It's full of excellently timed gags, better than the first. Very smart comedy. That's all I'll post.
