Movie Review: Sonam Kapoor's 'Neerja' leaves you with goosebumps!

Cast: Sonam Kapoor, Shabana Azmi, Shekhar Ravjiani

Director: Ram Madhvani

Producer: Atul Kasbekar, Shanti Sivaram Maini, Bling Unplugged, Fox Star Studios

Writer: Saiwyn Quadras, Sanyuktha Chawla Shaikh (dialogues)

Claps: Performances, Story

Slaps: A couple of 'slow' moments in the film which jarrs the narrative.

What's New: 'Neerja' is a brave attempt to tell an inspiring story of an unsung hero

Popcorn Refill: Interval

Plot: 5th September 1986. We see a young cheerful Neerja, celebrating a function with her family and other society members at Navjeevan Society in Mumbai before boarding Pan Am Flight 73 as a senior flight attendant. She is like any other girl constantly trying to seize every moment of happiness. 'Lado' Neerja and her mother Rama (Shabana Azmi) bond over paranthas and Rajesh Khanna. The premise then shifts to Karachi, Pakistani where a few members of a terrorist organization are planning to hijack that same very flight and take its passengers as hostages.

What follows next is how Neerja overcomes her fear drawing parallels from her failed marriage and becomes a saviour for the passengers on the hijacked flight on that fateful night.

Performances: Sonam Kapoor gives an honest performance as Neerja though she takes her own time to sink her teeth into her role. Shabana Azmi as Neerja's mother Rama has some shining moments that leave you emotional. The mother-daughter bonding is extremely heart-warming. The rest of the cast too is apt and add various layers to the story of those crucial 17 hours of hijack translated on-screen.

Direction: Ad-man Ram Madhvani makes his debut as a film director with 'Neerja'. One must applaud him for choosing such a sensitive subject for his debut vehicle. However this captain of the ship's journey isn't so smooth as there are a few scenes which could have had some more intensity to make 'Neerja' a gripping tale. He takes his own time to build a claustrophobic atmosphere. But in the process, the film slows down a bit which could work against it.

Saiwyn Quadras's screenplay could have been a bit more taut to create maximum impact. Inspite of these flaws, 'Neerja' deeply moves you especially the last 10-15 minutes which are quite impressive and heart-wrenching!

The film also has some soulful songs and music. The track 'Aisa Kyun Maa', a beautiful rendition stays with you for a long time.

Combo-on-offer: A story of courage and sacrifice+ Emotions

Verdict: We give 'Neerja' 4 Stars for its emotional and inspiring tale which leaves you with goosebumps by the end of the journey.

'Babu Moshai, Zindagi badi honi chahiye..lambi nahi'. Yes, you stayed true to these words, Neerja Bhanot!

Rating:4.0 out of 5

Dead Pool Movie Review

STORY: Wade Wilson (Reynolds) is a former special forces operative who makes a living as a mercenary. Life seems pretty good for Wade until he meets Ajax (Skrein), a twisted individual with his own evil plans. Ajax performs an experiment on Wade that gives the latter a set of superpowers. But this gift comes with a price and Wade seeks out Ajax to exact revenge.Deadpool traces the origin story of an unlikely, but extremely entertaining superhero.

REVIEW: Right from the opening credits itself you'll find yourself realizing that this is the kind of superhero movie which is definitely different. In fact, it wouldn't be wrong to say that it is a much-needed shot in the arm for the superhero genre in general. While there has been no shortage of comic book hero adaptations into film in recent times, Deadpool is one with a difference. For one, it breaks the fourth wall - that barrier between the film and the audience. This results in the kind of viewer involvement that is both endearing and extremely refreshing.

We find out about how Wade Wilson came to be a superhero via a series of jump cuts, flashbacks and oodles of humour. And then there's Wade's girlfriend, the feisty Vanessa (Baccarin) who is as messed up as he is. While their brand of romance has to be seen to be believed, their chemistry manages to be downright kinky to say the least, but delightfully enough, very real.

Wade's buddy Weasel (Miller), a barkeep, is also his wingman. And when both Wade and Weasel share screen space, they're a laugh riot. While the rest of the cast is suitably funny (don't miss the fantastically-named Negasonic Teenage Warhead, played by Hildebrand), this really is Reynolds' moment in the sun all the way. He surely has come a long way since 2011's very ordinary Green Lantern. In fact, what elevates this movie to another level is not just the snarky one-liners, but the plethora of cross-references to a lot of other superhero films as well. Supported by a very clever script, Deadpool is deliciously irreverent, subversive and uproariously funny.

RATING: 4.0/5

Sunny Leone Again Stuck In Controversy; Here’s What Made Sunny Very Angry

It seems as if “controversy” has become the middle name of adult star turned Bollywood actress Sunny Leone and it comes after her wherever she goes. She has been working quite hard for making her place in the industry and recently she was seen everywhere promoting her latest flick “Mastizaade” which also stars Tusshar Kapoor and Vir Das.

However, being famous has its own disadvantages too! And one of them surfaced when a poster of a movie “One Night Stand” went viral on Internet. In this poster, Sunny is seen lying on the beach in revealing clothes and the caption reads “Would You Like To Have A One Night Stand With Sunny Leone”. And This Has Disturbed Sunny A Lot As She Is Claiming That The Lady In The Poster Is Not Her. Sunny claims that the image has been photoshopped and she has also warned of taking an action against whosoever is responsible for this.

Here is that poster which is making the beautiful actress angry and uncomfortable:

Sunny Leone took to Twitter to express her fury over the poster:

If it’s really not Sunny Leone as the actress alleged, the person doing this must be punished for faking her image! Why do people always relate her present with her past (even though Sunny does not regret being an adult star in the past, she doesn’t want her past image to be highlighted presently.)

Ghayal Movie Review

LOOT DEAL : Amazing Deals for New Flipkart Users Download the Flipkart App Now >> Click me

'Ghayal', 'Ghatak', 'Damini'...what's common between these films? The man who drew claps and whistles each time he went 'dishoom-dishoom' on the silver screens- SUNNY DEOL! Here was someone who could beat the pulp out of the rough and tough villains and still look convincing while mouthing these filmy dialogues.

'Ghayal Once Again' marks the return of Sunny back with the action genre for which we have always known him for. Let's find out whether it's worth the wait-

Cast: Sunny Deol, Soha Ali Khan, Om Puri, Tisca Chopra, Narendra Jha, Shivam Patil, Aanchal Munjal, Rishabh Arora, Diana Khan, Abhilash Kumar

Director: Sunny Deol

Producer: Dharmendra

Claps: Sunny Deol, Action

Slaps: Sunny Deol packs a punch but this time without any memorable dialogues, the 'lengthy' car chase sequences which add a dull moment

What's New: In the age of candy-floss romance, Sunny paaji's 'Ghayal Once Again' is a nostalgic trip back to the 90s

Popcorn Interval: Interval

Plot: Mumbai 1990. The film opens with few scenes from 'Ghayal'. Cut to Mumbai 2015. Ajay Mehra (Sunny Deol) suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder after losing his wife and daughter. However he is still a man on mission and this time his weapon is his publication house 'Satyakam' which secretly also has a spy sort of agency whose job is to hunt the morally corrupted. 

In a turn of events, the retired ACP turned RTI activist Joe D'Souza (Om Puri) is murdered by Prince (Abhilash Kumar), son of the city's most influential businessman Raj Bhansal (Narendra Jha). This shocking event is accidentally captured by a group of youngsters (Shivam Patil, Aanchal Munjal, Rishabh Arora and Diana Khan) in their video-cam while they are busy shooting footages for a wild-life documentary.

Things take an ugly turn when Raj begins his hunt for these youngsters to prevent his own son from going behind the bars. And this time too Ajay Mehra has no choice but to go back to his old ways.

Performances: Sunny Deol is back in full form as Ajay Mehra. He is fierce and is in no mood to go easy on the bad guys. At the same time we even get to see an emotional side of him.

Soha Ali Khan as Rhea lends a good support. Shivam Patil, Aanchal Munjal, Rishabh Arora and Diana Khan have done their roles pretty well. 

Narendra Jha as the villain Raj Bhansal has his own menacing moments but quite a few (Oh, we terribly missed Amrish Puri's Balwant Rai!)

Direction: This time Sunny is not only acting in the film but also helming it. His efforts don't go in waste as we do get to see a glimpse of the 90s cinema which probably our parents terribly miss these days.

'Ghayal Once Again' has some kick-ass action scenes but you also get treated to probably the 'longest car chase' sequence you have witnessed in Bollywood in recent times which in turn pulls down the film a bit for it is pretty tiresome to watch. Sunny Deol's films have always been known for their 'dumdaar' dialogues but his latest flick has none which is highly disappointing especially for people who have grown up watching his films.

Combo-on-offer: Sunny Deol+ Action+Emotion

Verdict: We give 'Ghayal Once Again 3 Stars for being a mass entertainer with an inspiring message. To put it in Sunny's words- 'Agar hum sach ke saath hai ... toh hume jeetne tak haar nahi maanni chahiye.'
