JUST GO WITH IT (2011)


















I was really surprised watching this movie. Yup it has Adam Sandler and Jennifer Anniston...2 big stars and Nicole Kidman another big star (as Jennifer Aniston's old pal). Romantic and funny. Worth a watch. Great plot.
A famous plastic surgeon who forces his assistant to pose as his "soon to be divorced" wife to woo another hot babe but in turn falls in love with the assistant.

In India, we had a similar storyline in the Hindi film industry some years back... "Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiyahttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0451803/
starring Salman Khan too as a doc, his assistant played by Sushmita Sen & his love interest Katrina Kaif .... Of course, we have seen it being made in many more Indian languages  too.

So i guess both these movies and many of these similarly made plots were inspired from another big movie...Cactus flower (1969) starring Walter Matthau, Ingrid Bergman & Goldie Hawn! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064117/

My rating:  06/10

Only flaw in Just Go With It....Jennifer is not as attractive as she used to be during the Friends season!

KILL BILL. Part 1














Watched this movie for the first time last evening. I know it has been an age old movie which keeps playing on TV now and then but never got a chance to watch it.


In my opinion it's "Violent and turbulent". Although a fast paced racy thriller, I missed the intitial dialogues so landed up not understanding the storyline of the movie...! 

I went on to IMDB http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0266697/ to actually understand the story line..!

Great acting by Uma Thurman and the rest of the cast...but too much of fight sequence...got boring in between!

My fave character: Gogo


My rating: 5/10
