Film reviews/20thJune2014/Johnson Thomas
Humshakals(Hindi)
Rating: * ½ This one’s a clunker what
with three sets of actors striving hard to overcome the lack of good sense,
plot, script and humor thereof. Sajid
Khan at his humorless worst. Even his ‘Himmatwala’ remake looks better in
retrospect!
Ek ka Dum 1( Hindi)
Rating: * * ½ A frenetic jump happy
action thriller that uses the tired ‘memory loss’ formula to allow for it’s
repetitive plotting pattern. This long-in-the-tooth, dubbed from Telugu, Mahesh
Babu vehicle also incorporates some fast paced south Asian styled action but
the conviction and plausibility are heavily suspect!
Chef(English) Rating: *
* *1/2 The face saver this week, this gastronomical drool worthy culinary delight
has enough humor and emotion to whet your appetite. It’s a food-trip worth
taking!
With you, Without
You(Sinhalese-Tamil/English Subtitiles)Rating: * * * A tragic romance, this film pairs a Tamil
with a native Srilankan and brings out
their ideological differences and prejudices after marriage which inevitably
lead up to a tragedy. Not very convincing in it’s climactic spiel. Otherwise a
mood piece with beautifully somber tight-lipped romantic treatment and a
stunningly expressive performance from
national award winning Anjali Patil lends it some elevation!
