At the start of this new year I thought of coming up with the list of the films I liked most the last year, thought would be interesting topic on the group and would throw up many ideas. So, here we go-
10. Golmaal Returns- Loads of laughter…. Gud item nos… Stupid comic situations… A disappointing climax… Yet Full Paisa Vasool stuff…
9. Race – Slinky Cars, Slinkier Babes…Gud Songs…. More twists and turns than Jammu-Srinagar Highway…. Sit back, pop the Popcorn and Njoy…One Helluva Ride….
8. Wall E – A great animation movie… Said a lot without a word being spoken… Though the main characters were robots, this movie showed where greed was taking the human race…
7. Kungfu Panda – Heartwarming story about the triumph of spirit and the power of self realization…. Great characters, greater dialogues…. Animation at its best….
6. Mumbai Meri Jaan – A tribute to the spirit of the great city…. Capturing the insecurities of its denizens and yet showing how with all it's insecurities this city still triumphs above everything else….
5. Welcome to Sajjanpur – No character here was black or white….Everyone was grey…Much like real life…. And in times where glitzy malls and ultra uber brands dominate the filmy landscape, this was a film with a rural setting…. It takes courage to make this kind of cinema and we all must salute it…
4. Khuda Kay Liye – Showed how fundamentalism is not only tearing apart the world but also small happy families… And how prejudices we have can destroy lives…. Meaningful cinema, made with loads of sincerity…. Surprise gift from our neighbours…..Let more such come....
3. Oye Lucky, Lucky Oye – I really don't know why but I liked this one a lot…. Perhaps it made my heart go back to the streets of Delhi…. That apart this was a very layered story…. Intelligent cinema, made with a lot of finesse….Cinema in one of its very better forms....
2. Dasvidaniya – If there ever was anything called beautiful cinema; then this is it, this is it, this is it….. An extraordinary story of an ordinary man….Replete with 'cinematic moments'…. Bound to leave a lump in the throat and warmth in the heart….
1. The Dark Knight – Never had a movie based on a Superhero attained so much emotional depth…. Wonderfully depicting a whole spectrum of human emotions…. This one also had perhaps the scene of the decade (the trailer over turning on the streets of NY)….And one of the best characters ever to have graced the silver screen, Joker…. Heath Ledger may no longer be there, but his one role has ensured that he will be remembered….Forever…
Hope that every one has a Great New Year ahead!
