Analysing films

I am back after a gap of more than one and half months. The last one being a review of Dhoom 3, and I had promised to myself that I shall do a review of 2013 as the year comes to an end. But as usual one gets caught in the stupid things of life. Let me take a short detour and quickly in a few words summarise 2013. Well, it was the year of Ranjhaana, Kai Po Che, Lootera, Jolly LLB, Fukrey, Ghanchakkar and briefly, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. I have not seen three movies, which I am told are gems as well, BA Pass, Lunchbox and Ship of Thesues. I promise to see them this year. But these 6 films made up for all the trash that got made in Bollywood in 2013. What a gem was Lootera! A rusty and angry Kai Po Che and the sublime Ranjhaana. Fukrey had it's moments barring Richa Chadha (grouse), Jolly LLB for the effortless Saurabh Shukla and Ghanchakkar for the great plot it had (the movie was somehow misunderstood and misinterpreted). I hope to see some better films in 2014 for now. Mana
