MERE BROTHER KE DULHAN (2011) - HINDI

I saw this movie at CINEPOLIS in Bangalore today. The theatre was very good and the movie was excellent. It was a perfect recipe for the day. MERE BROTHER KI DULHAN starring IMRAN KHAN, KATRINA KAIF and ALI ZAFAR.

The story begins with the break up between ALI ZAFAR(luv) and Piyali in London. Luv plans to become married before the christmas and calls his brother IMRAN KHAN(Kush) to find him a lady love in India. Kush and his friends do many work out many plans to find a bride for LUV. Finally KUSH finds KATRINA, he and his family decide she is the one. Katrina plays the role of Dimple, a bubbly, charming and an open attitude character. As LUV arrives from London only a week before the marriage, KUSH and DIMPLE spend time with each other and get to know each other better and better such that they fall in love. As this plot could be easily derived from the 3 minutes trailer which is telecasted every 15 minutes in every channel, I have just given you an outline of the plot.
The rest of the story deals with who pairs with whom. The entire movie is full of comedy. Although the movie is full of fun, the entire plot seems to have the traditional, age old and used plot lines. After a few minutes into the movie, most scenes can guessed and the story seems to have taken inspirations from many recent movies like JAB WE MET, MANMADHAN AMBU(Tamil) and many more. The songs are good and they have been nicely picturised. The songs placed at right moments in the film. I loved the intro song "Mere brother ki dulhan" and Kat's song "Dhunki".

One of the best thing to happen to this film is KATRINA. Katrina was really hot in this movie. The role of DIMPLE, a modern, bubbly and sexy character really suited her. I loved seeing katrina in this movie. Although the story line was very much predictable, it was the comedy sequence which keeps flowing on keeps you enjoying the movie rather concentrating on the overused plot line of Bollywood. But still I dont understand why many films use the same overused plots.

I recommend my readers to watch the movie atleast once.

My RATING is 7/10.

ENTRAPMENT(1999)

The film starring SEAN CONNERY and CATHERINE ZETA JONES was released in the year 1999. It premiered alongside of many great films such as FIGHT CLUB, AMERICAN BEAUTY, THE MATRIX- the summer blockbuster of the year and failed to be in the first league.

Due to the incident of an highly protected Art theft, Catherine Zeta Jones(Virginia Baker), an insurance agent goes undercover to join the league of an aging Master Art thief, Frank MacDougal (Connery). The plot then goes very intriguing as both the parties try to con each other. The way they con each other is expertly depicted. It is the only thing in the film that keeps you at the edge of the seat.

The direction of the scenes in which the duo train were superb and also the stunts performed in the film was very good and directed really well. The screenplay could have been made more intriguing. The sequence where they prepare to overcome the laser protection to steal to the mask and also the finale of their theft were excellently acted and portrayed. Although the chemistry was good between the two, their love affair scenes could have been given less attraction.

Finally the plot hangs on to find who conned whom and who succeeded. Sir Sean Connery performed the role with its utmost perfection. The way he delivered the dialogues were so perfect and kept me really interested in the conversations. With his experience in the industry, it looked as if he did the role effortlessly where as the rest of the crew could have put in a lot of effort.

My favourite quote:
Cathy: I said this is called entrapment.
Connery: No, actually it's called blackmail. Entrapment is what cops do to thieves.


The verdict is the movie is worth to watch it once at the least for the performance of Sir Sean Connery.

My Rating - 6.2/10.
