Bol Bachchan (2012)
bast of the Rohit Shetty Ajay Devgn and abhishek bachan....
i don't see no other way to make batter this film..this is really good comedy movie..ajay has prove again that he can play any role he want and he make that role perfect..Bol Bachchan will undoubtedly draw in fans of muscleman Ajay Devgn (Singham) and his longtime collaborator, director Rohit Shetty (Golmaal: Fun Unlimited), for a healthy run at the box office. But its biggest surprise is Abhishek Bachchan, who reveals an unexpectedly subtle side and a talent for verbal humor in one of his best performances to date. Rohit Shetty yet again displays his penchant for picking the right actors for the right roles in Bol Bachchan. Ajay Devgn as the angry young Prithvi excels in a role that seems absolutely tailor-made for him. Abhishek Bachchan is entirely believable as the helpless simpleton Abbas. Asin scorches the screen as a desi girl with loads of attitude. Prachi Desai comes up with yet another fine performance in this enjoyable flick. Bol Bachchan also benefits from its slick storyline, developed by Farhan Yunus and Sajawal Sajid. Sajid has come with real strong dialogues too, which would definitely be lapped up by the masses. Screenplay by Yunus Sajawal is equally efficient. Editor Steven H. Bernard and art director Narendra Rahurikar also lend a distinct crispness and stylish feel to the movie.
Tezz (2012)
best movie with best ajay devgn work as always
A synonym for infectious hilarity, director Priyadarshan has something different this time. An action Flick with packed stars. For me, it was tough to skip "The Avengers (3D)" to pick "TEZZ". Given a choice (and time) I would never miss a movie from Priyadarshan. Mostly, filmed in London and Glasgow (few shots in Bermingham), Tezz revolves around a Bomb planted bullet train with Ajay Devgan and Anil Kapoor in the main lead. Film is set around a speeding train, and action around it. Aakaash Rana (Ajay Devgan) is out in vengeance for false implication of immigration laws, ruining his life, supported by few consociates while Arjun Khanna (Anil Kapoor), a detective of counter terrorism command wants to stop him. Arjun has to prove his recall on the last day of his retirement.
I am always awestruck with Robin Bhatt as a story teller. Few flicks like Baazigar, Ashique, Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin, Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge & Sadak really impressed me. I have seen variety in his thoughts. I was not expecting a story in this movie but amazed to notice the nice screenplay with a well-dressed storyline.
Ajay Devgan is a predictable choice for action movies. Having seen "Singham" recently, I feel he is not at his action best, then you may see the action scenes in this movie are fittingly shared between him, Anil kapoor, Zayed Khan and Sameera Ready. Most Interestingly Sameera Reddy is rocking. I always wanted to see Sameera Reddy in action roles. I somehow believe her to be made for such movies (kind of Linda Hamilton or a Cynthia Rothrock). Ajay Devgan said in an interview "Sameera Reddy is the hero of the movie", appears slightly exaggerated though. Anil Kapoor truly is lucky with the typocast at this stage of his career and is proving a point. Zayed Khan is acceptable in his character, though few stunts (Anil Kapoor chasing him) were very funny and relegate such a serious action flick.
If, for once, I felt Kangana Ranaut is undesirable in the movie, I corrected myself too. This is a bollywood movie. The main lead must have a girlfriend or wife. No specific thoughts on her acting skill, as usual. You have to have emotional and romantic scenes too. I couldn't diagnose the importance of the cop character of Mohanlal. Bomman Irani is excellent and deserves equal credit as Ajay Devgan or Anil Kapoor. He tries everything as the chief traffic controller and to save her daughter (Young Anandi - Avika Gor).
Hollywood action choreographer Peter Pedero (Bourne Supremacy and Braveheart fame) has stunt coordinated all the action sequences. You are expected to witness the Hollywood level stunt scenes. One filmy thing is the train diversion control and it swells spice to the film. Sameera Reddy's complete screen presence is awesome. This is possibly the most interesting element of the movie. Watching the scenes in a multiplex with Dolby surround, makes every penny pay. I must match TEZZ to any Hollywood action movie.
Just a few days back I saw "Anaarkali going to Disco" in Housefull2. Sajid Wajid duo, at no recent time skip attention. This time it is "Laila" where Mallika Sherawat shakes it all. The song is good to watch (Mallika is dazzling). Laila will miscarry in touching (audio craze) Anarkali, Munni, Sheila or even Jalebi bai. Despite the squabble between Priyadarshan and producer Ratanlal Jain, "Laila" stays put. Rahat Fateh Ali Khan gifts a fresh sufi styled number with "Tere Bina". This song is good in isolation as you will enjoy it in your car or home audio then in the theatre. A similar light qawaali type "Main Hoon Shab" by Mohit Chauhan is a decent number. Title song "Tezz" is mostly narrative and background (by Sunidhi Chauhan and Shaan) is OK type. Overall the music is just about middling and suitably set in the movie.
Wrath of the Titans (2012)
excellent movie
Wrath of the Titans was probably the most anticipated movie of the year 2012. But is it any good? First of all, The movie is merely based on the book. It features most of the same characters and a couple of the same locations, but the story is completely different. The only actor to come out with any real credit was the irreplaceable Bill Nighy as Hephaestus, the creator of the labyrinth that holds the father of all Kronos and the Minotaur. It is one of the quirks of modern cinema that people do find it hard to name a part in which Bill Nighy hasn't excelled at.
The visuals and effects are the real saving grace of the film and whilst to older fans of the original films they lack the warmth and sincerity of the previous work, it has to be said they add a certain quality and depth, even if at one point some of it does look borrowed from an episode of Doctor Who.
It's a real shame that the actors were possibly given second thought in the film over the effects and especially in Rosamund Pike, let down in a script that could have offered much more.
If you enjoyed the Clash of the Titans the sequel demands to be seen, if you're a lover of Greek mythology then it will be an interesting distraction but otherwise it's a film to miss.
