Swades: We, the People (2004)
SRKs best ever performance
Bollywood seems to be producing great films again. After a long wait ever since the days of Sholay, Kabhi Kabhi, Trishul, 1942- A love story and of course Lagaan, we are treated to a modern day masterpiece. This film was derided by influential sections of the Indian press who were biased to SRKs other release at the time, Veer Zara, but then still emerged triumphant ! SRks best performance ever...even better than Kabhi Haan Kabhi Na or the Yash Chopra/KAran Johars sweeteners. For a debut performance, Gayatri Joshi gives a very composed performance. Memeorable Scenes: SRK: YOu Indians can't take criticism Kaveriammma: YOU INdians ? SRK: Sorry, us Indians Watch it again and again, too good.
Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003)
SO good I bought the DVD I initially rented out
Kill Bill Vol 1 is a true cult film which can be classified in the same category as the Bruce Lee films; never tire of watching it and I hope that Vol. 2is just as good. Beatrix Kiddo (only mentioned as the BRide in Vol 1) is set upon by her former lover and boss, Bill (played by 'Grasshopper' David Carradine)as well as 4 other deadly assassins (Luy Liu, Vivica Fox, MIcheal Madsen and Darryl Hannah). SHe wakes up after a 4 year coma with one aim - REVENGE on each of her assilants. THe action scenes are mind blowing especially the showdown prior to the combat with Lucy Liu - that scene in intself is worth the price of admission. THis is one of the best films ever. 10 out of 10 **********
