A Wednesday

So when's that day??? When we will rise like phoenix from the ashes.......

First let's talk about the movie...... Movie per se is too good and I was moved by the very idea of the movie. As I am not checking the spoiler box, I must be brief......Though the movie is incomparable and nothing can be said without exposing the plot. Now I can easily say that Bollywood is showing some of its traits that can be compared to a Hollywood movie. The idea of the movie is among the best I have ever seen. This movie should go for Oscars not involving any kind of politics this time.

Let's see what can be said about the components of the movie, to start with we have 2 of the greatest Bollywood actor in the movie and chosen aptly for the roles. The four terrorists are chosen correctly for the role and also their getup is quite nice and appropriate. In the acting department only Deepal Shaw has shown some weakness, otherwise all the actors for big and small roles have shown their skills. Screenplay is good with too many story running simultaneously at the start of the movie. Cinematography is also fine with the scenes on the road, from the streets and all, also appreciable amount of money has been spent on it too. Background score is a bit too loud but some may find it appropriate but its not.....Editing is nice enough as the coherence is evident in the movie.

Now what .....the king of all ...... Mr Niraj, the director of the movie, he has done a great job by managing all the accoutrement on his back and using the right card at the right time.........This movie has an effect and is generally followed by a deep thinking........ "When there's a match between India and Pakistan.....and when India loses ... ESPN & STAR SPORTS are not blamed" It simply says that stop blaming the accessory, take responsibility of failure, then only you deserve the accolades.

OK fine .......lets see as a movie not good......... for me, as a college guy, okies movie... for those who r involved in some kind of band , too good.....Farhan as an actor----bad All the rock songs in the 1st half ------ bad very bad(they don't have any meaning...."zehrilay saanp" n all... too bad) last song is OK .. In the story u see that it is a mixture of few of the past movies ... dil chahta hai(aamir shown as a rich guy gets into a fight with akshay khanna, similarities can easily be seen) Direction...k what can I say about Abhishek.....k fine I think with this budget he has done a good job..... screenplay...sometimes nice but looks like a copy of DCH.... cinematography no good... editing k .....jumping from all the Rock music to sudden silence...ya makes u remember DCH.... I have given it 6 because of the last sequence, song, situation and ending....alls well that ends well.. Also 1 thing I missed to mention here that girl Debbie has done a good job ...nice acting...nice change from a girl to a wife & a mother... Nothing else ...

I know I watched this movie only because of Will Smmith........But I must say Will SMith is not enough to make this movie a good one..... I hope many of hose who liked this movie will be a teenager, cuz its very peppy movie. Music and background score is not impressive...Peter Berg, I don't know what he was thinking to show in 1 hr 27 mins...but OK he has shown lot of action though.......k lets see some good points ..... that scene where Hancock is fighting with his "wife" the scenes are mixed nicely. Also that head into the ass thing is sumthin' to laugh about ..... The stubble looks good on Will Smith but later he shaves it off. All in all if u wanna see a Will Smith movie... see it ........otherwise there are many movies to watch before this......

The Joker- The Best

Gotham National Bank Manager: The criminals in this town used to believe in things. Honor. Respect. Look at you! What do you believe in? What do you believe in!
The Joker: I believe whatever doesn't kill you simply makes you... stranger.

The Joker: You just couldn't let me go could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. You truly are incorruptible aren't you? You won't kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness, and I won't kill you, because you're just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever.
Batman: You'll be in a padded cell forever.
The Joker: Maybe we can share one. They'll be doubling up, the rate this city's inhabitants are losing their minds.


Batman: Then why do you want to kill me?
The Joker: [laughs] I don't want to kill you! What would I do without you? Go back to ripping off mob dealers? No, no, you... you complete me.


The Joker: [speaking to Two-Face] Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I'm a dog chasing cars. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it. You know, I just do things. The mob has plans, the cops have plans, Gordon's got plans. You know, they're schemers. Schemers trying to control their worlds. I'm not a schemer. I try to show the schemers how pathetic their attempts to control things really are. So, when I say that you and your girlfriend was nothing personal, you know that I'm telling the truth.
The Joker: It's the schemers that put you where you are. You were a schemer, you had plans, and uh, look where that got you. I just did what I do best. I took your little plan and I turned it on itself. Look what I did to this city with a few drums of gas and a couple of bullets. You know what I noticed? Nobody panics when things go according to plan. Even if the plan is horrifying. If tomorrow I tell the press that like a gang banger will get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will be blown up, nobody panics, because it's all, part of the plan. But when I say that one little old mayor will die, well then everyone loses their minds!
The Joker: [Joker hands Two-Face a gun and points it at himself] Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I'm an agent of chaos. Oh, and you know the thing about chaos? It's fair. [with the gun in Two-Face's hand, Two-Face pauses and takes out his coin]
Two-Face: [showing the unscarred side] You live.
The Joker: Mm-hmm.
Two-Face: [flips, showing the scarred side] You die.
The Joker: Mmm, now we're talking.
