Movies I've watched lately

Sherlock Holmes - loved it!!. Guy ritchie's potryal of the legendary intellect as dynamic and lethal was super cool!!. Enjoyed every bit of Jude law and Downey Jr's acting but had  trouble with understanding downey's british accent.  Still humming the theme music. 'Tan tana tan....'

Avatar - A visual Tour de force. watched in 3D IMAX. Amazing visuals but didnt think much of the story.

2012 - Edge of the seat disaster movie strewn with clichés . But absolutely loved it and duppu hated it!!.

3Idiots - Duppu loved it, I loved it and everyone loved it!!. Easily the best hindi movie of 2009 . The story had the same basic plotline as munnabhai MBBS Right ?

Hangover - Love this 'R' rated comedy.

Paranormal Activity - 'Scariest movie ever' ? Wtf!!  . a shoddy film . The scene where katie gets dragged out of bed was interesting :).

Unnaipol Oruvan (Tamil) - A horrible sh*tty movie . A sad caricature of immensely watchable
'A Wednesday'. Its big time this dinosaur should retire .

Insomnia -  Al pacino all the way. what an amazing actor!!.  A beautiful movie, loved the story.

Eeram(Tamil) - A decent supernatural thriller. But felt the movie was like an over stretched rubber band.

Nagarahaavu ( Kannada) - Watched it again!!. may chammayya mestru and ramachari rest in peace.

District 9 - Immensely appealing and electrying must watch movie.

R.I.P Dr.Vishnuvardhan

Dec 30th , 2009 is a sad day for kannada movie lovers.


The veteran actor Vishnuvardhan who shot to fame with 'Nagarahaavu' in 1972 was a rare actor. His 37 year film career is strewn with gems like Muthina Haara, Bhootayyana Maga Ayyu, Bandhana, Naagara Hole, Hombisilu and Apthamitra. My personal favourite being 'Nagarahaavu'.

It is disgusting the way his fans or hooligans behaved . Public property was vandalised. Houses and stalls were looted. May those guys rot in hell.
As i write this i am listening to the evergreen melodious song..'Baare baare' ( P.B srinivas) from nagarahaavu.
