Players - movie review
Abbas-Mustan the director duo who have given us thrilling hits like ‘Humraaz’, ‘Ajnabee’ and ‘Race’ have come up with ‘Players’ which is an official remake of the 2003 Hollywood action film, The Italian Job. Players is a notch below the high ‘thrilling’ standards created by them. The film Players, shot in locations in the Goa, United Kingdom, Wellington and Auckland in New Zealand and Siberia, St Petersburg in the Russian Federation has some never-before-seen action sequences directed by Allan Amin. What is missing in the film is proper characterization of its players. Half baked characters, average songs and mediocre acting are the drawbacks. About its plus points, it has good cinematography and editing, fine action sequences and it is a stylish film. This time around, it's not just going to be the men (Abhisheik Bachchan, Bobby Deol, Neil Nitin Mukesh) who ....

Saawariya movie review
Saawariya means beloved. Only that lover who stands the test of time …who overcomes all obstacles… who doesn't care whether he gets the girl or not… as long as he's consumed by love… as long as he remains in a perpetual state of being in love… That man, that rare lover is saawariya. Ranbir Kapoor (Rishi Kapoor's son) is instantly likeable, and Sonam Kapoor (Anil Kapoor's daughter) is undeniably attractive. They are the newest and most promising stars ever offered by our Bollywood film industry. These young stars debut in director Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film Saawariya which is a stark, lovely story about romance born and rekindled over four nights apparently inspired by the classic Fyodor Dostoevsky's "White Nights".
