The Movies I Liked

V For Vendetta

Brilliant movie.
The LFE when there is an explosion in the end is sure to give a massive workout to your subs.

Here is the link to know more about the movie

V for Vendetta (film - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Deja Vu

It stars two big names, Denzel Washington and Val Kilmer. Val Kilmer has not much to do in the movie. The story is based on how a big terrorist attack is foiled. This is done by altering events in the past.
Nice plot but not convincing at times.

BTW, where is Vinay?
Have'nt seen a post from him for a long time now.

A movie I greatly enjoyed in recent years is "Big Fish" by Tim Burton. His best yet I think. Highly recommended.

Not too many recent movies (this year/last year) have been memorable. "The Prestige" was quite interesting and "The Dark Knight" was an excellent action movie.

Saving private ryan(DTS)

Me too wondering the same

Also Audiodelic is not to be seen since quiet long

Today I saw 'Thoda Pyar, Thoda Magic' starring Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerjee.

I was quite impressed with the clarity of the DVD. More impressive is the graphics of a couple of scenes:

1. Rishi Kapoor acts as God and walks on clouds. He conjures up a control panel with an heads-up display that show scenes on Earth. The control panel is just floating in thin air (or should I say Sky), and the camera pans from all angels to reassure you there are no tricks.

2. In the song 'Beetey Kal Se', Rani Mukherjee and the kids are romping through the National Museum in Delhi. Rani Mukherjee, who is an angel, constantly changes the scenario by waving her hand. The way the backgrounds change is very smooth without any artifact or blotchy patches. There is even a small Dinosaur that joins the dance for a few minutes.

The background music is smooth without too much noise. Dialogues are clear and Saif's voice comes out with a additional gruffness. The DTS is well mixed.

In close ups (particularly in a court scene) you can see Saif's beard growing. He must have shaved a couple of hours before the scene was shot !!

I enjoyed the technical aspects of a Indian movie after a long time.

I am adding a original DVD of 'Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic' to my collection.

Cheers

Couple of movies i watched last week:

Fargo - a classic thriller (1996) didnt know how fast the 140 mins went
Blow - story aboyt a drug dealer - johny depp proves himself again

both of these are real stories and if you get a change grab'em

Need to get a copy of 'Fargo'. Heard it is a excellent movie. I have visited the city that has the same name. It is so flat that during rainy season, the whole town gets submerged. The tallest building is a small Hotel with 2 floors.

Just finished watching 'In The Line OF Fire'. Superb performances by Both Clint Eastwood and John Malkovich. The way John needles Clint on the phone calls is really very well done. The cinematography is very good, and you can clearly see the way Clint sweats and tires out when he is running along the President's limousine. I am dying to see a Blu-Ray version.

The bulk of the dialogues between Clint and John is on the phone, and has been recorded at low volume. The movie is a good test of a HT system. You really have to increase the volume to hear the dialogues well.

Cheers
