Ishq Movie Review

Posted: 26 Feb 2012 03:02 AM PST

Ishq Telugu Movie Review, Ishq Movie Review, Ishq Review, Ishq Movie Rating, Ishq Movie verdict, Ishq Movie story, Ishq Movie climax, 





Cast: Nitin, Nitya Menon, Ajay, Sindhu Tholani, Nagineedu and Ali
Director: Vikram Kumar
Producer: Vikram Gaud and Sudhakara Reddy
Music: Anoop Reubens-Arvind Shankar
Rating: 3/5






The actor Nitin shot to fame with Teja directed "Jayam" and thanks to the success of the film he was touted as the next superstar in the making. But his choice of bad films with routine stories and ordinary directors has pushed him out of the star race.

But he returns to the reckoning with well-tuned romantic movie "Ishq", made with good technical values and superb performances by the lead pair.

Director Vikram Kumar, who had directed R. Madhavan starrer Hindi thriller "13 B", has written a good screenplay, which is fresh and contemporary.

The director has also been able to capitalise on cinematography by roping in best-known cameraman P.C. Sriram. Anoop-Arvind's music is another plus point.

Kumar has tried to present Nitin differently and the actor shows lot of maturity in his portrayal. Even the conflict point in the story is used effectively.

Romantic sequences involving the two leading artists are well picturised. The first half is breezy and engaging. Though the second half is little inconsistent, the director gets a grip on the story towards the climax, which is interesting.

Of course, the film has loopholes - characterisation of Ajay, who plays heroine's brother, is confusing. Second half has illogical sequences.

But the flaws notwithstanding, "Ishq" is a winning film and it will attract all sections of the viewers.

Rahul meets Priya on his way to airport and it is love at first sight for them. After some interesting sequences, they come together and love blossoms between them. But there is one sour point. Vidya's brother with whom Rahul had a tusssle.

Nitin proves to be a competent actor who can carry any role decently. Even in the looks department, he scores well and shows a lot of maturity in his performance.

Nitya Menon takes over from where she had left in "Ala Modalaindi" to prove again that she is the most talented actress. The lead actors share a good chemistry on screen.

Ajay renders justice to his role. Ali adds up to the comedy quotient. Sindhu Tholani, Nagineedu, Sathya Krishna are apt choices for their respective roles.

Sriram's brilliant camera work and Anoop-Arvind's soothing music make the film a must watch. The dialogues are crisp and humorous most of the times.

Nitin makes a comeback through "Ishq", which is a feel good romantic film.

Verdict: Feel-good romantic film

Moneyball Movie Review

Posted: 25 Feb 2012 08:03 AM PST

Moneyball Hollywood Movie Review, Moneyball Movie Review, Moneyball Review, Moneyball Movie Rating, Moneyball Movie verdict, Moneyball Movie story, Moneyball Movie climax, 




Cast: Brad Pitt, Johan Hill, Philip Seymour Hoffman
Director: Bennett Miller
Producer: Michael De Luca, Rachael Horovitz, Scott Rudin
Studio: Columbia Pictures
Rating: 4.5/5





The irony of most team sports is that individual star players become bigger than both the team and the game. With the current controversy of Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting, who refuse to retire despite having neither age nor performance on their sides, the timing for "MoneyBall" release in India is perfect.

Yet, to the credit of writer Aaron Sorkin, who previously gave us "The Social Network", he ensures this is not just a sports film. By making sports a metaphor for life, it becomes one of the best sports films ever made and a very worthy contender for multiple Oscars.

After a dismal show by his team, Billy Beane (Brad Pitt), the general manager of the baseball team Oakland A, tries to find a winning team.

But his budget is too small to take expensive star players. With the help of a young statistics nerd (Johan Hill), he decides to turn conventional baseball wisdom upside down to opposition from everyone — till, in the end, his formula works and everyone stands up to take notice of this man, who changes the way the game is played, forever.

Like a promotional line from this film based on a true story, it is indeed "a movie for anybody who has ever dreamt of taking on the system" and changing it. Though it is a film about a sport, it has so many layers, multiple analogies, unsaid things that the film becomes a delicious ride for the discerning movie viewer.

The stunning screenplay delves into such layers that what is visible is just the teaser for what really is in it, which a viewer has to decipher. Like the tip of an iceberg, "Moneyball", using the minimum words, speaks out the maximum.

After the extremely witty but dialogue-heavy, straightforward and gimmicky (in terms of script) "The Social Network", Sorkin shows what he is really capable of.

"Moneyball" is also about each of our disabilities. We are all disabled in someway or the other. And the world makes us much more disabled by looking at and harping at what we cannot do, instead of seeing us for what we can.

It's like a guy in a wheelchair. We don't see what that guy could do. He might be the greatest writer in the world, or like Stephen Hawkins, the greatest living scientist. But we judge him by his wheelchair and blurred speech.

Hence when Beane refuses these conventions of 'success' and instead takes on the 'weaker' player and concentrates on what these players 'can' do, he breaks the cliche and prejudice against the also-played players in any game, and thus against all of us.

The story thus becomes a metaphor for a true and successful society which can achieve its potential only when we see in each one what he or she can do, instead of harping on what they can't. Like Einstein tells us, let us not judge a fish on his ability to climb a tree. Society, like most games, is also a team sport.

It is one of the greatest sports film because it puts the spotlight back on 'team' in a team sport. It is one of the most disgusting spectres of life to see individual players in a game given over-importance, while others are grossly neglected. By removing stars from the game, like Beane does, much of the dignity of a game can be restored. An idea whose time has come for cricket as well.
Verdict: Stunning, perennially topical

 4.5
