movies of the week

this week brings mainly 2 hindi movies, daddy cool and quick gun murugun to the theatres.
about daddy cool .. DONT WATCH IT
its a bloddy copy of the most fantastic comedies ever .. The british comedy .. Death at a funeral .. i just wonder why people copy masterpieces just for the sake of profit. i know it would have a different feel showcased in hindi and probably some reviewers love the movie because of the laughter riot it promises, but its a copy !! go watch the original .... i mean suni(e)l shetty's career is almost in its final stage (it started its downward descent when he added the extra 'e' in his name, talk about numerology or whatever they call it). why would you want to watch him ?? DEATH AT A FUNERAL >> go download it, buy a DVD or ask for a special screening of it ..

now comes quick gun murugan .. o .. i found the movie interesting, novel / bullshit and predicable both. its a confused feeling after seeing quick gun.. its that B grade .. neither its an A grade (great rajnikant flick kinda) movie and nor the C grade ones like 'Gunda' (though its one movie whose glory no movie can achieve again).

While you love with the 'vegetarian' cowboy of the movie in the start, relishing the subtle 'linguistic' comedy (as i'd like to classify it as).. the movie has this 'spoof' humor similar to english spoofs. as the movie starts developing a storyline, it becomes very predictable and with the kind of 'superhero' murugan stunts, it starts getting on your nerve soon.. you want it to end somehow, as you already know the story that the bad guy would get killed and his master plan to 'destroy' the world will be overcame by the hero. you lose your tolerance and then realise somehow its not a movie worth watching .. its that youtube-movie .. seeing its funny scenes on youtube would've been more interesting rather than watching the whole thing .. my final take, if u wish to experiment, test your tolerance levels, that is you have liked 'welcome' and 'bheja fry' both in the past .. (if u only liked 1 of em, u wont like quick gun) , then go watch quick gun ....


btw, i found the theatre of daddy cool half full and that of quick gun murugan, empty ..
