SLEUTH in Sonly Pix. There were just 2 characters in the film, played by Michael Caine and Jude Law, but still the film was very compelling and absolutely engrossing that I was just glued in front of my TV.

The plot had enormous scope for performance and these two guys were terrific. The talented and experienced Caine was excellent in bringing out all the minute expressions effortlessly. Jude Law was also equally fantastic and proved to be a perfect co-star. And, as for me, if you want to hear nice and sweet English, it has to be British . Actually, after Frankenstein, this is Branagh’s second film I’m watching.

I’d love to watch the original starring Lawrence Olivier and Michael Caine, again (he actually reversed his role in the remake – Wiki ).

Has anyone seen the 'Karate kid' or the 'The A Team' ?? any good

Karate Kid: Average and quite predictable. Since the movie is about the kid, it had only one Jackie Chan fight sequence. Loved the Chinese girl's dance though.

The A Team: Above average. Action-packed, fun film without a dull moment. Worth watching once.

hmm, I am also getting good reviews about the 'A team' would give it a go

The Corruptor:Chow Yun Fat and Mark Wahlberg star in this actioner set in the backdrop of china town where two gangs are at war.

Throw in double crossing,flip,twist,chase,guns and we get a masala mix.

Not great cinema but interesting as long as it lasted.

Only grievance:Chow's acting which was plain bad.This role required someone who could excude power and screen presence.Chow hammed his way through.

any reveevs by hub pandits on "Schindler's list" ?
if so please direct me

[kid-glove]

Without trying to conflate ethics and aesthetics in an overt manner, I still find "Schindler's List" troubling than necessarily being 'moved'. Polanski's "The Pianist" is more to my taste as it transcends beyond just a comment or an episode of holocaust, and manges to 'observe' than 'judge'..

I wouldn't go as far as Zizek does (but it's an interesting angle, and the box-office success of a film based on holocaust raises caution & alarm):
Schindler's List is, at the most basic level, a remake of Jurassic Park (and, if anything, worse than the original), with the Nazis as the dinosaur monsters, Schindler as (at the film's beginning) the cynical-profiteering and opportunistic parental figure, and the ghetto Jews as threatened children (their infantilization in the film is eye-striking) - the story the film tells is about Schindler's gradual rediscovery of his paternal duty towards the Jews, and his transformation into a caring and responsible father.
