The one with the review - Yuva

Yuva: ***1/2 Just when I thought that I'll have to settle nicely for the weekend movie at home on TV, the mobile rang and I was there at the theater about half an hour later, having hastily devoured whatever dinner I could eat in 2 minutes. Then the ever hardball master of bargain, Himanshu, ate into the first 10 mins of movie. Well..what the heck, we saved 10 bucks, at least :-) So, here is the my review. My hopes had drastically reduced after having heard mostly negative reviews of the movie. But as I never have too high a opinion about other peoples opinion, at least in this regard, this didn't effect me too much. The plot was nothing new. But neither was hackeneyed nor cliched. The movie revolves around creating the world of the three protagonists belonging different strata of the society. And it suceeds to varying degrees. The most fleshed out character is Abhishek Bachchans, Lallan Singh, the local goon. He is clear abt his goals of rising high and doesn't mind

The first one

Finally, I decided to create a blog for myself where I intend to put down anything worth my/anyones time. Why, I can put down anything here even if its worth nothing at all :-) Finding a url for my bolg turned out to ne pretty difficult. I wanted "daemon" and then "adonis" but later settled on "blogmeif ucan" because thats the movie tonight(weekend..ahhh). I am hearing dreadful reports of "Yuva", Maniratnams latest offering. Haven't got tickets though. Will have to wait a few more days to pass my judgement. Adios, lazy surfers of the web, Got a movie to devour.
