RAVAN MUSIC

Rehman does it again, one of the songs "mujhe behne de" by Kartik and Irfaan is reminicient of his musical hit Dil Se's "Satrangi re", rest songs are upbeat like "thok de killi" by Sukhwinder "kata kata" featuring Sapna Awasthi's voice( again reminicient of DIl Se) and that serenity of usual Rehman's music is retained in songs like "khilli re" by Rene Bhardwaj and "ranjha ranjha" by Rekha Bhardwaj and a nice fusion is seen with folk music in "ranjha ranjha" and "kata kata" but the stealer is "beera beera" by Vijay and Mustafa. Music seems to be in tune with the theme of movie and it convincingly indicates what kind of characters we can find in the movie. A mixed but wholesome experience.

Audibility: 4/5 He never fails to impress.

HUM TUM AUR GHOST

Arshad Warsi as a funny little godbrother was nice in each and every movie Munnabhai1& 2 and Hulchul,we could still see the shades of same character.
Diya is good, graceful as usual, Boman Irani does his part but he can't help the poor direction, dialog not coming in time to click and take the momentum of movie forward in first half.
Arshad is good with his witty actions, hilarious face and quickliiners.
Movie gains pace in second half, but almost everything is predictable,
a good time pass movie, and an education for your girlfriends, so definitely a one time see with ur girlfriend.
But here as well Warsi is a li'l funny godbrother of other writers.

Watchability: 2/5, may go if you don have anything else to do

dark knight overshadowed by night

It's high on drama, action, and best of all a well thought and sequenced movie.Christopher Nolan does a fantastic job as the movie moves with a pace that you can never get enough of it and engrosses the viewers so much that he forgets who the hero is Christian Bale(Batman) or Heath Ledger(Joker).
Heath Ledger gives mind blowing performance and is actually able create the terror his character is supposed to create. the shear power of the character and the finnesse of the acting over that creates a perfect situation which could make any viewer believe that how easy it is to create terror and negativity and how difficult it is to dispel that mist of distrust.
Joker is an apostle of chaos, he wants nothing and is looking for limits, his as well as that of a so called civilized society just for the sake of his amusement.
Gotham City is gripped from wind pipe and brought down to knees as a punishment for letting grow the corruption to this extent so that even the superhero is rendered helpless.
Joker with his nasty stories about his face, demonic laugh, i know it all chuckle and nothing to loose attitude comes up as a winner.
Despite of being a sci-fi and action movie, it sends out a strong, most appropriate and indispensable message: somebody has to pay for the corruption, ugly distortions hidden in a civilized society shall become things of need if we don't play by the rules.
Nolan brothers have done wonders with the screenplay and viewers are aghast by this multifarious attack of good story, brilliant graphics & screenpaly and superb acting (even that of Alfred, Mr Waynes domestic help).
Verdict: Must see movie. 4.5/5
