    Piranha.

    Positives = Kelly Brook's jalabulajanks.
    Negatives = Everything else.

    The original was brutal, but it was a 'silly fun' movie and probably was the best jaws ripoff at that time. I quite enjoyed the original one. This one.. awful.

    Got to do with the way Scorsese structures the movie I think.

    Was very impressed with Ray Liotta as Henry hill while Joe Pesci's character reminded me a lot of his role in the Raging Bull.

    Road to Perdition - Watched it yesterday and liked it a lot. The opening scenes reminded me a bit of Gladiator (Son he never had sort of logic) but the similarities ended once Newman's loyalties were established. I have always thought that blood is thicker and hence I liked Newman's character that much more. At one level, Hanks' and Newman's characters are the same as they both have to protect their sons irrespective of their misdeeds (a smaller one in case of Michael Sullivan Jr.).

    Tom Hanks has done a neat job of portraying the loyal hitman and the loving father (though he doesn't show his love explicitly). But I couldn't stop myself from imagining a 90s De Niro in that role. It is a tribute to the man that the distant and thorough gangster immediately evokes his memory. Jude Law and Daniel Craig aren’t bad either. But I would’ve loved to see more development of Craig’s character.

    And I liked this ending better than the one from the comics kid-glove mentioned. Spoilers: Tom Hanks says that his son could make it to heaven in one of the scenes. So for him to die - after witnessing his son shooting Jude Law - with the fear that his son might follow in his footsteps would’ve been tragic. Hanks’ character succeeds in that count and the son too says that he never touched a gun after that.

    I shud've better stayed back home and watched Jaws. Why the hell did the director opt for 3D?

    Revolutionary Road: Was it P_R who said this was one of the best films in recent times???????????

    Sorry,I certainly did not feel so.Except stray moments when Di caprio did well as the frustrated husband,the film was boring.

    Idha vere kan mulichi friday night paarthen.


    Quantam Of Solace: Film starts where Casino Royale ended,on a high and keeps the adrenaline pumped up for the next 1 1/2 hours.Good watch for a sunday afternoon.
    Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.

    the new one is just as silly as the original, but it doesn't have the same nostalgic effect (like 99% horror remakes i've seen.. look no further than van Sant's Psycho)..

    actually you can watch and adore late 70's- early 80's horror movies (no matter how crap they are), just for the 'kick'..

    Like i said in my earlier post, Ms Brook is the true savior of the movie.. She's just awesome.

    Yep, I too prefer this to bleaker ending in comics.
