RGV's best... the movie brought me back to reviewing movies on MS after 4 years; had moved onto my own blog in the meantime! And you are right: this is an out-and-out adult movie. Especially that maarmic scene of the child crying beside his mother: it literally gets to you.

Commented on fenil_seta's review
I wont rate this review, since for the first time in our association I disagree... Yes, there were holes - even a few you have not pointed out - but that is beside the point. The movie was short, and enjoyable, the gaffs notwithstanding. You rated it right at 2 stars, I would have given 2.5 mysel read more...
Seems almost pointless to say it, since it is so obvious. However, it has to be said just to underscore the painfully obvious: Great review! (This is another way of circumventing the ten word rule albeit in an irritatingly circuitous fashion!)
Commented on lovesreading's review
That was a very tasty review! You had me 'smelling' coffee flavour all through!
Having seen the movie, i can honestly you made it replay in my mind. The movie is all you say and more. The best part is that despite the topic being so gruesome, the treatment is such that you are kept in emotional touch with the players and cry and laugh with them. A powerfull movie, it stays with read more...

Sorry for the rating, which was because the writeup did not do justice to the book. Being a hailey fan myself i have read this book. While you have touched a few good points, it left a lot to be desired for. Vishal

That was a helpfull write-up, though the formatting could be better. As i am on mobile, not sure how it looks on PCs! Vishal
Excellent as usual fenil! The movie was all you said and more. The passion that went into Aamir's role, his devotion was a treat to watch. That is why all his movies are in a class of their own!
Hi paul! Great, tantalising review, i must say. Was just surfing to decide which movie to take in, and saw your post. Nice to get in touch again. Vishal

Sorry for the rating, but you could have written more about how to choose a mobile phone. This write-up, while it is interesting, does not tell much too much about choosing a phone
