Having found  the meaning of the word love they arent aliens anymore.A comedy film which is touching at times.

IN BRUGES



After a long time I am seeing a movie like this.You dont often see a movie which is touching ,which reveals the earthly facts.A clear depiction of human tendencies is the bonus of the film.Ken(Brenden Gleeson) and Ray(Colin Farell) are two hit men who have moved to Bruges,Belgium to take a short nap.Ray s memories of killing a small boy in an encounter haunts him.THough having done murders this one was really troubling him.Maybe since he was in the peaceful city of Bruges which is famous for its historical churches and other artwork ,the serenity of the place must have changed him.There Ray and Ben meet midget , a director from America and the prostitutes from Amsterdam.Ray falls in love for a girl in the film.She is actually pretty cute with eyes doing the trick each time she smiles.Their romance is worth seeing.THe way Ray flirts with the girl raises giggles.An finally when the order comes from the boss for the hit men for an assasination the story takes a turn.A drama of high profile.

HAROLD AND KUMAR ESCAPE FROM GAUTEMENO BAY



Harold(John Cho) and Kumar(Kal Penn) are rocking again in this film.After four years of the release of Harold and KUmar go to THe White Castle this film is again a theatrical comedy.But at times it is surprising how the director has put forward the racist confrontations so plainly.At times it is hurting but at the end the director has proved that each race has its own ethnicity.Americans are really tough guys but Kumar gets the going tough for them.I couldnt just refrain myself from laughing my hearts out after seeing Karl Penns acts.This time the story goes scuh that Harold and Kumar are moving to see Harolds girlfriend but in the plane due to Kumars wierd activities he is convicted of planning for bombing the plane and sentenced to prison in guantanamo bay.And how they manage to escape from there landing in the mexican party,the bottomless party,ans eventually landing in Presidents white house is highly comical.There is not a moment where you can stop laughing.

YOU DONT MESS WITH A ZOHAN



Zohan(Adam Sandler) is a mossad secret service agent.He has amazing skills and is the best in town.The women are mesmerised by his skills.But the truth is that ZOhan had never felt great with his achievements.Sohe dicusses with his parents that he wants to end this and wants to become a hair dresser.But his parents resent his decision.He fakes his death and moves to America to earn a living of his own.He becomes a famous hair dresser and the secret is that he had a different way to move with his lady customers.He becomes so famous in town.But he is soon recognised and is hunted.This film like all other Adams films is highly humorous.

LEATHERHEADS


I warn you beforehand that this is a film of yesteryear but brings in the romance ,action,drama,and lots more.In 1925 Dodge Coonolly(George Clooney) the pro footbal champ of america tries hard to bringup the sport to lives.His latest plan is to checkin a college football star (John Krasinski) CarterRutherford into his team.And this new team mate has the additional advantage of advertisement since he is a war hero who is considered to have single handedly overcome a pack of german soldiers.When all goes fine the budding journalist(Renée Zellweger)Lexie Littleton comes in .Then starts the rivalry over wooing the girl between the teammates.But the woman is more intense in bringing out the mystery behind carters war heroism.And eventually how Dodge overcomes the hurdles of getting his girl and having his team intact to win trophies is greatly brought out.Three cheers to George Clooney for his directorskills and his act.And believe me man he is really sexy even at this age.

THE FORBIDDEN KINGDOM


Jetli is cast in two roles the Mnkey King and the Silent Monk.Jackie chan plays the role of Old Hop alongside the hero and the Golden Sparrow(Yeifi).A action filled fantasy film.It is true to our expectations both the martial art heroes have showcased their talents.The plot is such that the hero kid Jason somehow lands upon the legendary stick weapon used by the Monkey kIng.He lands in china and teams up with Jackie Chan and Yeifi to help the Monkey King who is imprisoned for more than five hundred years by the Warlord and in this journey he overcomes the white haired demoness and other cult killers.And at last he helps them out and lands back in America with a additional qualification of learning Kung Fu and a girl friend as sweet as Yeifi.Martial Arts with fantasy really works wonders.

WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS


Cameron Diaz and Aston Tucker rock the film.Diaz is ditched by her husband and Ashton is considered to be worthless by his father.These two plan for a trip to Las Vegas the sin city where they find each others tale more pitiable.They go for a party where they get drunk and in the morning they sit looking at the wedding ring.And they plan of divorce before which they hit a jackpot.Whether they part or thier love for each other grows is dealt in the second half.THe quarrels between the two are quite watching.And the friends of both play their part to the best.

HANCOCK


I was greatly disappointed after seeing the film.I was so excited earlier that Will Smith is going to appear as a SuperHero in his next film but all those expectation has gone to pieces.Except the lead role done by Will Smith the others didnt make their presence convincing.Other thanWill smith there is nothing to speak of in this filmThe story line is too weak and lingers at certain places.Hancock is a SuperHero who isnt worried about the people and his behavioural patterns irritates the people.He then meets a public relations proffessional to promises to repair his name.Hancock falls in love with the proffessionals wife.And then what happens is somewhat a puzzle.The dialogues are too long.If not for those innocent acts by hancock which rises giggles the film is too boring.Charles Therones characterisation is so weak.After her award winning films North Country and Monster this film is just a drop of her talents.The director promises to unveil certain twists in the film but even that isnt convincing.All together a daring venture by the director.
