       Ragini MMS 2 movie  Reviews

     The camera-footage films was popularized by Hollywood film Paranormal Activity which was later utilized in Ragini MMS, touted to be the India's first film to do it. Ragini MMS 2 kicks off from where the first part ends but is saddened by over-the-top performance and lame script.

After brutal incident at a farm house which killed Uday and left Ragini in unstable condition, a director is inspired to shoot the film at the same farm house based on unfortunate events.

The trailer of Ragini MMS 2 was catchy and interesting but when you will watch the film, you will be flabbergasted to watch half-porn sleazy skin show with no spooky moments enough to scare the hell out of you. In fact, the movie will remind you early 80's Ramsay' classics like Purana Mandir and Veerna which had C-grade actors , blazing lights, big-old broken house. Screenplay is weak with no sense of storyline. Cinematography is bad. Art direction is worse. Editing is loose. Sunny Leone gets ample scope to show her well-curved figure but that is it. She is still has long way to go in terms of acting. Other actors are pathetic including talent like Divya Dutta. Songs are the only silver- lining in this boring flick with "Baby-Doll" and " Chaar Bottle Vodka" being pick of the lot.

Overall, The original Ragini MMS was fun to watch with enough scary moments and fabulous acting. The sequel is a disappointing follow-up. Forget it .Poor 1/5

Storyline

Pahwa is a film buff. He watches every new release in the night show on the first day itself. Just as he readies himself to visit a nearby theatre to catch the new release Darna Mana Hai, his mother cautions him against taking the route via the graveyard. It also happens to be Friday the 13th and Amavas ki raat (new moon). Pahwa dismisses his mother's plea since he doesn't believe in ghosts and goes through the graveyard, making fun of the dead and hitting a tree in the cemetery. The movie is boring and ends with no incident, but on the way back, for some reason he's a little more nervous than usual. He hears strange noises and someone seems to be pursuing him.Written by gavin@sunny_deol2009@yahoo.com

      

You Must Be Scared movie Reviews

     Darna Zaroori Hai the sequel to Darna Mana Hai starts off with a brilliance and ends in not so brilliant way. The theme is the same as before, so one can easily come to a conclusion how it will end even before getting the ticket to the film, So no complaint the way it ended. If Manoj Pahwa's was brilliant in portraying horror, Amithab's episode touched the peak with the background-score, if Arjun Rampal's was do with beautiful horror, then Rajpal yadav's was to do with fear, if Anil Kapoor's was to do with bluffing, then Randeep Hooda's was on revenge. So we had all the flavors of POSSIBLE horror in the film with excellent performance from all most all the people in the lead. The Maturity of each actors helps the film to reach at least half-way where it was heading. Did it deliver that good at the right content, well that of course depends on how much you were horrified. After the film i started counting at how many instance i felt a Shock/Tremor/Horror. When i finished counting it wasn't even two digit number but it wasn't zero either. The film does at least triggers a small shake in your body, for me it was with the episode with Amithab Bachan, the others where tilted towards the comic side but the lesson in those stories to learn was don't play too much with others when you don't know how much they can handle. As far this film goes except few scenes you can handle most of them. You cant expect every frame with blood on it to say its a horror film, this film will horrify you provided you see the film without expecting when will you be horrified meaning concentrate on the drink and pop-corn rather on the story and at the end count the pop-corn on the floor that's the number of time you where horrified.

Ragini MMS movie Reviews

  It was only matter of time before Bollywood get into the found footage genre.

Ragini MMS (2011) Hindi movie, no need for any subs, as most of the times they speak in English!

Two couple who go to farmhouse and most of time think of having Sex, then when get into the mood, there friends come, thing stat to get be scary in the house.

This movie do show the ghost here and there, it is shame cause it take the tension away from the movie, however there some scene which were surprising good and bit jumpy.

Near the end after some descent scene from the movie, it loses tension again , which makes the movie down hill.

This is actually Bollywood version paranormal activity 4 out of 10 I think worth watching for least once! (Just for laugh)

 Raaz 3 movie Reviews

     "Raaz 3" cleverly utilises the success of the franchise and ropes in from the original the director Vikram Bhatt and actress Bipasha Basu (thank God, Dino Morea was permitted to stay away!). 

Writer Shagufta Ali fences the plot quite well - a waning actress who can go any lengths to retain the crowning glory and succumbs to making use of black magic as a weapon of destruction. 

Bipasha gives her best shot however appears she was over-doing it and if I may dare say flaunting her body she has toned over the unemployment years. Emraan Hashmi's character is not well etched out. Eesha Gupta manages a decent performance considering she is a newbie in comparison. And yes, Bipasha & Shagufta as half-sisters - bad writing. 

Songs are OK carrying the signature Mahesh Bhatt feel. Director Vikram Bhatt who has developed core competence in the genre of horror does a decent job. On that note, the writer could have polished the edges to give that sheen it warranted.

Get Hard movie Reviews

      I love Will Ferrell in my opinion he is the funniest actor working today, I even liked Semi-Pro and feel it is severely underrated. When i heard he was doing a film with Kevin Hart i thought it was a genius idea. The trailers had me laughing.. the premise seemed funny.. until i found out what it really was. That being said this film is extremely racist in parts and the rape jokes really are too much, there comes a time when the line needs to be drawn. Although despite this there are some real laugh out loud moments and both Ferrell and Hart do a great job with their delivery in both physical and dialogue based comedy. When the jokes hit they really do hit.. but some jokes just feel kind of awkward.

I wont go into too much detail because most of you probably already know the premise. Will Ferrell plays a racist stockbroker who assumes that because of the colour of his skin Kevin Hart's character has been to jail and he asks for his help to survive in prison so he doesn't get sexually assaulted.. and yes this is honestly the plot. I expected the film to have a fair amount of rape jokes but there really is a time in the film where i got tired of this and it gets a little uncomfortable. One of the more uncomfortable moments has Will Ferrell attempting to perform oral on a gay character.. to me it just went on way too long. That's not to say there is no good moments. The first half of this movie was actually really enjoyable for the most part. Seeing Kevin Hart train Will Ferrell in his own home was great and the set design was actually great. One scene in the film where Ferrell attempts to pick a fight in the park with some much bigger men had me laughing out loud for a while.

A big problem with the film is that it completely changes course in the last act. The training scenes were fun to watch but then Ferrell and Hart enlist new people (Hart's cousin played by TI) to help him out and the film got slow and started to fall apart before we are treated to a predictable ending. The two comedians are on top form with what they are given and Get Hard isn't a bad way to spend 90 minutes, I didn't hate the film at all but I hope these two work together again some time in a movie that will have a bit more potential to be funnier. I felt we could have been given more but it is what you would expect.. plus the prison riot really was a well-shot and funny scene, more scenes like it would have been great but this film isn't terrible so there's that.

 Focus (II) movie Reviews

    If you stopped for an hour and dissected this film you WILL find problems, like how the audience is meant to root for borderline sociopathic criminals or how the structure isn't what they're used to... HOWEVER, if you go in just expecting to be entertained and if you have a particular fondness for hustle movies, this is one enjoyable movie. The charming but not over-the-top humour consistently keeps the story entertaining and by not following the usual structure of a movie this kind, and ultimately the one the trailer promised, it offers something new to the mix. I can see the multiple twists as a turn off for some expecting a deeper film but if you know what you're in for I think the multiple twists in the film's final act will one-after-another bring a smile to your face and even have you laughing. Will Smith harnesses his charm to success in this flick and Margot has effectively proved herself as not being a one-hit-wonder. This is not a bad film, though I do believe your enjoyment hinges on your expectations when going into it. Don't expect the next Ocean's 11, expect a charming, funny, well acted, smartly written, hustle movie that will undoubtedly be drowned out by mixed reviews from people expecting gold and can't appreciate really good silver.
