So Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara is out on..

 

Just saw it. Liked it a lot. Story was pretty honest, no pretense or complexities in it. Although the message of the movie is very true and honest, doing it in real life? thats another thing.

 

But the movie was shot amazingly well. And fantastic acting by everyone. And the music tied into the movie very well. The Akhtar family sure is pot of talent. Zoya akhtar did a great job.

 

 

agreed on both counts. nice 'feel good' movie and the humor wasn't forced except a couple scenes. i thought farhan akhar was OTT but i believe his character was written that way, still he didnt fit the role IMO.

Hrithik is terrible at acting the best scenes. I thought his character was best written but very very poorly pulled off. There were so many moments when he could have given his character so much more depth with a dialogue and low voice, but all he does is shout. And thats his normal acting style, not his character.

 

On the contrary to what KC said though, I thought Farhan did the best job. Abhay, as usual, pulled off his character very well. Katrina acted well but her character should have never been brought back the 2nd time!! I was so annoyed when that happened.

 

Overall the movie was definitely feel good and enjoyable but nowhere close to DCH, like its been touted. It lacked in depth of the story and seemed slightly dragged. But in the end, its still very different from the regular movies and was enjoyable if you have the spare time.

^I agree about Katrina not coming back.

She should've remained that life-changing episode for Hrithik on the trip. Which she was until her forced return

. Very bollywoodish decision. Still, overall the movie was a great step up from the crap we're dished these days. I didn't find it that dragging as they had to close a few loose ends. The scenes of their adventure sports were filmed brilliantly i'd add

Saw this movie called " The Boy in the Striped Pajamas " yesterday. Felt immersed into each and every scene and sensed the pain and character's POV. Storytelling at it's best. I have seen many a movies on the WW-II about Nazis and Jews but this movie only dealt with the same from the eyes of an 8-year old. Although it's told from the perspective of a child, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is as shattering as any film about the Holocaust could be, perhaps more so.

 

The film is powerfull stuff, only beacuse it is so simple. The Boy In the Striped Pyjamas tells the story of a friendship between two eight-year-old boys. Bruno is the son of a concentration camp commander in Germany in the early 40s; Schmuel is a prisoner in the camp which Bruno innocently thinks is a kind of farm. The world doesn't always make sense to a child. What, then, to make of a world that doesn't make sense to anyone?

 

Bruno played by Asa Butterfield is effortless and acts with his eyes. Schmuel, is captured with poignancy by Jack Scanlon. These two kids can teach our Bollywood frontrunners the ABC's of subtle performances. And kudos to the director of the film,Mark Hermann . He did a brilliant adaptation of John Boyne 's novel with the same name.

 

Please DO WATCH this film.

It was based on a novel but at least it was declared as such.

oh really.if its a novel rip-off and even if its declared you dont moan about it and bash it but if its taken from a game and has similarities to something else then you go bashing it stupidly.seriously ridiculous.

 

Now thats poster is a rip-off.no doubt about it :bigyellowgrin:
