Kalyug

A nice movie… ppl had been really recommending it, but it didnt turn out to be all that great. It’s a movie on the sex trade industry. It has it’s own bits of stupidities, but two songs make the whole experience worthwhile.

I would say that if u have nothing better to do, then go and watch this movie. I give it 6.5/10.

Lord of war

Good movie but nothing great. It’s one of those movies that makes you say “Trailer is always better than the movie”. I was expecting more out of the movie…

This movie starrs Nicholas Cage as a arms trader and shows how he got into the trade and how his life changed. I learned one important fact from this movie… it’s told right in the beginning… “1 out of every 12 ppl on this planet are armed” …

I liked how the movie started though by the end it seemed to drag along…. I give it 6/10.

Stay

I didn’t get most of the movie. I guess one understands whats going on in the end. But I would refrain from commenting on the story. I loved the way it’s been directed especially how one scene transfroms into another.

It’s a movie about how a shrink tries to stop a man from killing himself.

I would in some respects compare this movie to Mulholland Drive.

Edison

Stupid movie with a stupid storyline. LL Cool J and Justin Timberlake tried there hand at acting but have failed miserably. Morgan Freeman and Kevin Spacey havent done anything good either. It’s the standard run down story of good cop - bad cop and how a bad cop turns good…

It’s not worth wasting time and money on. I give it 4.5/10.

Bluffmaster

Kewl movie… loved every bit of it… actually loved it so much that i went and watched it twice. The story has been ripped off from Matchstick Men starring Nicholas Cage, but has a better ending. The climax is really good.

A fun movie which i consider a definite watch, unless u have seen the original. I give it 7.5/10.

Too lazy to post

This is my second post since i came here to Delhi. It’s not that i have not had things to write about… it’s just that i have become to lazy… even if i am just sitting around i wont log on to the laptop. I have been sleeping soooo much :-) about 12-14 hrs everyday… have seen a few movies and been to a few places… it’s been fun.

Anyways… gtg now and pick up sister now. will try and post more often.

Serenity

A Kewl scifi flick. It’s got good graphics and good action sequences. I give it 6.5/10.

With or without you by U2

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I’m waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised, she’s got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you
With or without you

I am back….. back to HOME SWEET HOME !! :-) :-)

Gmail is changing

Slowly and slowly…. folks at Google are adding more and more features to Gmail and at the same time modifying the old ones. Recently there was news that Gmail added virus protection and all the downloads will now be scanned.

I recently noticed that now Trash folder is not the same as before. Now when you delete a message in any of your folders (other than Trash and Spam), you click on Delete which has replaced Move to Trash. Also, the trash folder now has a message that states “messages that have been in Trash more than 30 days will be automatically deleted“. I dont know if they have actually implemented it or not. I still have messages from october lying there in the trash folder. Also, they have added this small trash-can icon to the messages in the trash folder…

There’s also this new web clips feature. A line of text on top of each folder’s view, which links to stories from sites all over the internet… basically RSS Feeds…

Kewl…. I like it… :-)
