KHATTA MEETHA
Movie Review “Khatta Meetha” (2010)
Genre: Comedy
Director: Priyadarshan
Language: Hindi
Star Cast: Akshay Kumar, Trisha Krishnan, Rajpal Yadav, Johny Lever and others
“Khatta Meetha” is one more Priyadarshan comedy; but this time with some social message. This is a remake of Priydarshan’s own blockbuster movie “Vellankaludu Nadu” in south. Akshay Kumar yet again joins hands with the comedy guru. Priyadarshan always delivers entertaining light hearted cinema. In Khatta Meetha he tries to combine comedy and drama together.
Sachin(Played by Akshay Kumar) the only member of his family who is yet to do well in his profession of road making contractor. Everyone around him thinks he is a loser including his family. He goes on to make one blunder after another. Meantime his brother and brother in laws who are corrupted are responsible for making a bridge which fell down in only few days of making and kills 100’s of people. Instead of taking responsibility of the disaster they try to cover it up by framing their driver and killed him too. Will there be justice? Will Sachin ever going to be successful?
For me movie is entertaining as any Priydarshan movie; but he could not blend comedy and drama as well as he should. All the acting performances are almost perfect. Akshay Kumar and Rajpal Yadav excelled everyone else by far. Trisha Krishnan looks beautiful I her Bollywood debut movie. It was refreshing to see her in Bollywood. But her acting performance wasn’t impressive enough.
If I have to rate this movie it will be 6 out of 10.

Eclipse
Movie Review “Eclipse” (2010)
Genre: Drama, Romance, Fantasy
Director: David Slade
Writer: Melissa Rosenberg (screenplay), Steaphenie Meyer (Novel)
Language: English
Star Cast: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Xavier Samual, Dakota Fanning, Anna Kendrik, Ashley Green, Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser and others
‘Twilight - Eclipse’ one of the most awaited movie of 2010. This is third installment of Stephenie Meyer’s bestselling novel. We get much more action, much more drama in this movie.
Bella (played by Kristen Stewart) is still living in Forks with her dad; she is grounded by her father for her Italian adventures in last movie ‘New Moon’ and also he wanted Bella to date someone else other than Edward (played by Robert Pattison). She is not ready for that. Bella is still followed by Victoria for her revenge. In this movie she creates an army of new born vampires with the help of Riely (played by Xavier Samuel). For Bella’s safety the warewolves and vampires has to act together. Jacob (played by Taylor Lautner) and Edward have to work together. Meanwhile Bella has to decide between Edward love of her life and Jacob her best friend.
“Eclipse” is action packed movie compared to earlier parts. The love triangle is come out much more strongly in this movie. Enjoy the brilliant actions and special effects in this movie. The main star cast better in this movie. For me David Slade directed the movie better than his predecessor. Cinematography of the movie enhanced the movie experience.
If I have to rate this movie I will give it 8 out of 10.
