Frantic (1988)
Disappointing!!...i was expecting a lot from this really..Furthermore its directed by the famous Roman Polanski. It’s a classic case of how the title misleads the main feel of the movie.....the direction i don’t found great at all...it was messed up n confusing..Neither the script was very tight or gripping...and three is practically no background score!! Music being of utmost important was totally neglected..it felt like i was watching a silent movie at times. Only thing which made me sit thru the 120 mins of the presence of Harrison Ford..His performance was good as expected. There are too many flaw n goof-ups in the movie...and having a pretty decent plot and being thriller it don’t have any steam at all..And for most parts i was boring!! if u are big Ford fan then watch it otherwise don’t.

Boku no kanojo wa saibôgu AKA Cyborg Girl [JAP]
A movie which blends sci-fi/romance/tragedy/action comedy....is not too bad...close to 2 hours the movie starts wd a slow pace..picks up well in the middle and most of the movie..but again nearing the end it stretches a lot and becomes very slow...the direction is top class so is the acting and camera work...but the downside is the pace of the movie....and more action would have been better since its called Cyborg Girl...the romance/tragedy factor dominates the movie....the girl playing the cyborg is cute with a C!!!...nothing more to say...watch it if u like Japanese movies...

Everbody loves Comedy. Laughter is the best medicine.Therfore, our film directors too, try to take atleast a few comedy movies every year, if not every month. Below are the comedy movies produced in the Telugu film industry during the year 2009.
1. ANJANEYULU(Aug. 2009)
Major Cast:
Ravi Taja As Anjaneyulu
Nayanatara As Anjali
Sonu Sood As Bada
Brahmanandam As Prabha
Nasser As Krishna Murthy
Synopsis:
Anjaneyulu, an employee in a TV channel, is a happy-go-lucky guy pampered by his father, Krishna Murthy. He comes into contact with a girl, Anjali, who is being chased by rowdies; he saves her and instantly falls in love with her. He continues to follow her and finally she gives in and they get married after a brief misunderstanding.
In the meantime, a creative head, Prabha, is called in order to develop the TV channel and introduce some innovative programs. Anjaneyulu wards off a raid to the studio by Bada and his gang. He learns that they, in association with other ‘big’ people in society, engage in many such deeds, including the death of his own parents. So, he joins the villain gang as Pawan to bring into light all their nefarious activities and eventually puts an end to them. It is during this process that Anjaneyulu breifly loses the trust of his lady love though all is well that ends well.
Review:
Although, the film deals with serious elements like mafia and gang wars, director Parasuram, tries to keep up the humour of the audience. Brahmanandam and others provide enough of comedy and in the words of hero Raviteja is “an entertainer with family emotions”. The way in which Ravi Teja finds out the movements of the villian gang is interesting. Music has been scored by Thaman.S and songs are good.
IdleBrain.com rating: 3/5
2. BENDU APPA RAO R.M.P (Oct. 2009)
Major Cast:
‘Allari’ Naresh As Bendu Appa Rao
Kamna Jethmalani As Padma
Meghana As Gayathri
Ahuti Prasad As Raju
Synopsis:
Bendu Appa Rao is an RMP doctor in a village. He continuously pulls extra money from the people by indulging in activities such as framing them with false ailments or creating illnesses in them. But then, he does this in order to satisfy his brother-in-law’s lust for his dowry money. Meanwhile, Padma, daughter of Raju, the village President, falls in love with Appa Rao.
The story takes a turn when Apparao finds an amount of Rs.15 lakhs which is given to him by a dying person to hand it over to the latter’s family. Unable to locate the family, he uses the money for the society’s good and, in the process, also changes his brother-in-law’s mind. Later, he incidentally gets to find out the family and decides to marry Gayathri, the dead man’s sister. In the end, though, AppaRao gets united with his first love, Padma.
Review:
The film strikes a balance between clean comedy and sentiment and Naresh steals the show with a neat display of both. Brief comedy episodes by Ali, L.B Sri ram and Dharmavarapu Subrahmanium are included and the film is credited for its pure entertainment value. Music has been rendered by Koti. Most of the songs have good lyrics and are shot at picturesque locations. One of the songs in the film ‘Sukumari Chinnadi’ is beautifully picturized in a flower garden. The ‘snake dance’ by Naresh is a highlight to the film. Also, producer RamaNaidu makes a guest appearance as the District Collector.
IdleBrain.com Rating: 3/5
3. KICK (May 2009)
Major Cast
Ravi Teja As Kalyan
Illeana D'Cruz As Naina
Shyam As Kalyan Krishna
Sayaji Shinde As Kalyan's father
Synopsis:
The film starts with Naina relating her flashback of her encounter with Kalyan to a cop, Kalyan Krishna.
Kalyan is a guy who loves doing things which have enough ‘kick’(thrill) in them. He falls in love with Naina who gets fed up of his ‘kick’ and so leaves him. She goes to Malaysia to meet her parents. In Malaysia, she meets Kalyan Krishna to whom she is supposed to be engaged as fixed by her parents. Here, her flashback story to him ends and she learns that the cop is on a vigil for a person on charges of robbery who turns out to be this same Kalyan. In the end Kalyan is caught in Malaysia by Kalyan Krishna, aided by the Malaysian police. Also, Kalyan manages to win the love of Naina after she comes to know the real reason behind his robberies
Review:
Though the storyline is lengthy and a bit complicated, all the artistes have expressed themselves in a manner which provokes laughter. Illeana appears glamourous and dominates by her looks and actions. The comedy by Brahmanandam and Ali is commendable. Shyaam fitted easily in his role as a serious police officer. His attempts at making out the identity of Kalyan with just two minor clues are brilliant. The ending drama of the final robbery by Kalyan catches the excitement of the audience and the closing scene where we see Ravi Teja as a new police officer is unexpected. Music has been scored by Thaman.S.
IdleBrain.com Rating: 3.25/5
4. VILLAGE LO VINAYAKUDU (Nov. 2009)
Major Cast:
Krishnudu As Karthick
Saranya Mohan As Kavya
Rao Ramesh As Lakshmipathy
Yendamuri Veerendranath As Bhaskar
Synopsis:
A retired army Major, Lakshmipathy’s youngest unmarried daughter, Kavya is a medico. He searches for a suitable match for her with the help of his family friend, Bhaskar. But, she is in love with Karthick who is stout and a teacher by profession. Kavya approaches her father with the marriage proposal, but her father and all other family members are against it, as they do not like the obesity of the boy. They try all kinds of tactics to create a negative impression of Karthick on Kavya.
Finally Karthick wins over the entire family with his good-naturedness and gets wedded to Kavya.
Review:
This ‘family entertainer’ has been taken as a sequel to an earlier film Vinayakudu. The lovely picturisation of a village atmosphere is a notable feature in the film. The innocent looks of Krishnudu suited his character. The performance of all other artistes in the film is average. The film goes in a light vein and provides enough comic relief. Music by Manikanth Kadri is excellent. The songs in the film, including a remix version of an oldie “Aha Na Pelli” are beautifully taken with a couple of them in a traditional village setting.
IdleBrain.com rating: 2.75/5
For those of you who like to laugh out loud and have no expectations of how a Vinayak or NTR film should be, Adurs offers good amount of entertainment. The film's greatest strength is its comedy and it may be said that we have never seen a better comedy in any of the previous Vinayak or, for that matter, Junior film in the past. It is clear that Adurs' writers and the director knew well beforehand that they were dealing with an average plot, involving two twins separated at birth by that favourite old lady, the bhamma in cahoots with the nurse, and the more ordinary premise of one growing up to be valorous and the other a timid one, and instill enough funniness into the proceedings. To begin with the story, Narasimham (NTR) works for Sayaji Shinde, the cop in-charge of cleansing the city of extortionists. He intercepts the calls between noted extortion gangs like that of Rasool, knows who they are extracting big bucks from and jumps into action at the right moment, killing the goons in no time. Naras gradually becomes a menace to Rasool, who plans to exterminate him. In the meanwhile, in comes Chary (NTR again), with the promising Brahmanandam (he plays Bhattacharya), and tickles our funny bone, scene after scene. Chary is the assistant to the priest Bhattu, who keeps himself busy conducting death, marriage ceremonies and film muhurats (one such film is Chakkara Takkuva, the remake version of Amitabh Bacchan's Cheeni Kum. Ha ha..), but his most important business is to cosy up to Chandrakala (Nayanatara), with whom he is madly in love. The two tracks run parallel, as Nayanatara falls for Chary and Sheela keeps flirting Naras. The director takes care of keeping our interest levels intact by introducing Asish Vidhyarthi, who begins a search operation for Naras, the son of a retired army officer (Nasser). Of course, Naras has already been the target of Rasool's gang. As the interval bang draws to a close, Chary is mistaken for Naras and is taken into captive (just as in the recent Bollywood blockbuster Kaminey). However, in no time, Asish and others catch hold of the real Narasimham. Why has Asish been on a hunt for NTR? How are the two brothers going to play a game with the villains, to escape from the vortex they are in? Answers to these questions are to be found in the second half. Story wise, Adurs offers nothing new. In fact, let alone the predictability factor, there is no extra effort taken by the makers to make it oomphier - say, through punchy dialogues and inventive action. If total absence of mind-blowing lines and single liners is a low point, vintage NTR not coming alive anywhere, excpet in songs, is a disappointment to all his fans. The film has a high point, but just one. It's the comedy, which is well executed and performed by Brahmanandam and the Brahmin avatar of NTR. Our star comedian, Brahmi, rules the roost. He is simply terrific. NTR, as his yes-man, is new and fresh, but just not flawless. Basha (MS Narayana)'s comedy is good too. The fun factor slumps down in the second half, when Mahesh Manjrekar (playing a heartless villain) and Raghu Babu continue to be befuddled by comedy of confusion. Nayana and Sheela have nothing to do except shaking legs with NTR. Dialogues, otherwise good in comedy scenes, are quite poor. Had NTR repeated a thumping performance and shown some wise dialogue diction as the junior priest (watch him speaking in a whole new diction and you find him inadequate), the film would have not been a nightmare for his fans.
