Two decent movies in a month isn't bad at all. Vinod and I had gone to watch the movie, Namesake by Mira Nair, but being the lastminute.com we are, we didn't check the name of the theatre properly and ended up in the wrong one. So we decided to check on Will Smith's 'Pursuit of Happyness'. Well paced and intense. Some of the incidents and dialogues in the movie reminded so much about some of my experiences!
Water wasn't bad either. A bit artificial, especially when the lead roles come together. Definitely not a great movie, but compared to all the masala that comes out in Hindi feature films, these kind of movies are a relief. At the least, these days we have decent theatres (bit pricey though) to sit and enjoy these movies. Whether we have excellent infrastructure in terms of movie theatre or not, certain things haven't changed at all. Loud talking, continuous ringing of mobile phones etc. It is so annoying. One of those OTS moments!!
We might be able to change the infrastructure, but not the mindset of people!Probably this is one reason why I miss the movie going experiences in Europe.
