Dookudu Telugu Movie

02 Oct

Our family watched Dookudu this weekend at CinePlanet, Kompally. We booked our tickets a few days in advance and hence opted out of some of the personal obligations for relatives. To our surprise, my brother’s family also booked their tickets for the same movie, same place and the same show.

Right from the word go, we enjoyed the movie’s subtle comedy. Kudos to the timing of Mahesh, Brahmi and M S Narayana. Rest of the cast did their bit too, to ensure that there is continuous dose of comedy in the otherwise routine screenplay and/or movie. Mahesh carried the movie in its entirety on his shoulders. Samantha looked like an on-demand cloud computing instance – she is there only when needed by a song or a scene with the lead actor. A couple of songs looked better on screen than while listening to the audio. I really liked the choreography of the title song Nee Dookudu. So is the song Chulbulee. I personally felt Itu Raaye song could have been pictured better.

Final verdict from four of us: Two called it above average. Two called it thoroughly enjoyable. I personally started waiting for the DVD.

 

 

Mr. Perfect Movie Bloopers

01 Oct

Mr. Perfect is almost a perfect family movie, but it has its own share of bloopers. Here are some bloopers we noticed during our family’s DVD time.

  • Priya, the lead character played by Kajal, drives a Honda Activa with its side stand. You should watch the full scene to realize how uncomfortable she is while stopping the scooter.

  •  Vicky, the lead character played by Prabhas, sees Priya’s MMS while holding an iPhone. But the close shot of the MMS is shown as being played on a Blackberry.

  • During the long finale, Vicky’s attire is seen alternating from a well tied necktie to loosened one, with the collar buttoned on and off accordingly.

Now its more fun to watch the movie.
