Naresh Says

Last year lot of movies released.. Some of the movies were released with lot of expectations. Some of them failed to impress audiences and some of them got success.  Last year I spent most of the time by watching movies of different languages.  Here I am going to tell some  movies of 2008 which I feel best and worst…

Hollywood:

1.The Dark Knight (One more great movie from Christopher Nolan, The highest gross of last year.)
2.Slumdog Millionaire (awesome movie….)
3.The Curious case of Benjamin Button(Its like a forrest gump movie, but its good direction from david fincher)
4. Milk
5. Wrestler
6. Burn After Reading
7. Kungfu Panda
8. Pineapple Express
9. Changelling
10. Tropic Thunder
11. Wall~E
12. Eagle eye

I watched only a few hindi movies last year. Here i listed some movies which I liked most.

Bollywood:

1. A Wednesday (wow.. i like this movie very much.. screenplay is so good and a good message in it. This film is just about 90 mins, u wont waste time by watching this movie.)
2. Rab ne bana di jodi (its my personal favorite of last year)
3. Mumbai meri Jaan
4. Ghajini

Kollywood:
Last year is very bad year for the kollywood. Very less movies only released. Tamil movie scripts are just made for actors not for good stories. It is very difficult to say good tamil movies in the year 2008. But I feel some tamil movies are good last year, see there below
1. Santhosh Subramaniam
2. Dasavatharam(worth to watch for kamal acting)
3. Poi solla porom (i like it very much..)
4. Subramaniapuram
5. Anajathe
6. Saroja
7. Yara di Nee Mohini

Here I am going to list some of the worst movies which I saw last year.
Hollywood:

1. Disaster Movie(plz dont see it, if anyone give the dvd for free)
2. The Hottie and Nottie (:((… worst film.. my friend gave this film dvd for free, so only I watched… it really sucks….)
3. The Love Guru
4. Hancock
5. The Mummy 3
6. Wanted(its like tamil vijayakanth movie)

Kollywood:

1. Kuselan
2. Kuruvi
3.Satyam
4. Kadhalil vizhundhen and more… its a big list…..

Last month I downloaded this movie because all movie critics gives many positive opinions about this movie.  Everyone says its an excellent movie, but I am not interested to watch this movie. because I thought its one more slow drama movie with violence… Last week I heard that this movie nominated for golden globe awards and ar rahman also nominated for best original score. This makes me more expectations about this movie. So I watched this movie 2 days before.. It fulfilled all my expectations about the film.

This film story is based on the novel written by Vikas Swarup. The story of the movie is not an ordinary, its really different.  This story clearly depicts the mumbai slums.   Screenplay and editing is awesome. Background music really rocks.   Casting is good. All the actors are lived in there role.  But some violence in this film.

“little boys escaping from the gangsters”, “speaking with her girl friend during the final question in KBC game”,  “Anil kapoor giving wrong option as answer to hero”, “Brother sacrifice” are all my favorite scenes.

In one particular scene, one cop beating a little boy(hero) , then one american couple try to stop the cop.. on that time,

Indian boy says: “You wanted to see a bit of real India? Here it is!”

American lady: “Well, here is a bit of the real America, son.” (”money”)

That ameican lady gave money to cop to stop beat the little boy.

From this scene, they clearly described difference between indian and american.  This film is directed by Danny Boyle.  I am not see anyone of his films but I heard about his film “Trainspotting”.   Most of them says “Trainspoting” is a dirty film which tells story of druggists, so I avoid to watch that movie. I am wondering danny boyle  born in england, but how he show the real life of mumbai and indians in this movie. Really great…

But in this movie, they show most of the bad things of india, why they did not show good things.. This is the only thing i dont like.. But its defently a master piece.  Every Indian should watch this movie. Highly recommended to all.

Today this movie bags 4 golden globe awards for best direction, best screenplay, best original score and best motion picture. I think this movie will bag oscars in next month oscar ceremony.
