Lost in Translation:

Really enjoyed watching this movie. This movie had a remarkable love-story. The best part of the entire-movie was when Bill Murray leaves Scarlett Johanson for his hometown-kids-wife etc. Bill Murray's acting ability reminds me of Kevin Spacey. I think the climax was an apt one, Scarlett appears to be ready for the new relationship with Bill i.e ready to dump her current husband but Bill displays maturity in not-proposing to marry her. I think anyone of those usual love-story-movies would have scripted 'Bill marrying Scarlett and live happily forever story' and Sophia Coppalo deserves appreciation for this amazing climax.
Great movie!

Million Dollar Baby:

Good movie. Clint Eastwood as an actor steals the show from the first-scene. And his last-act of pull-the-plug is a rather debatable one. I think 'euthanasia' is something very difficult to comprehend and people tend to react emotionally to this topic. As long as one is speaking out his mind emotionally, the opinion is bound to be wrong. 'Euthansia' sounds logical in case of people suffering due to terminal illness but at the same time it defies human spirit. Humans have the ability to fight against all odds. And I think any human has this inborn-ability to fight against anything which is trying to exterminate him. Going by the natural ability to fight against any virus(thanks to immune system), how come humans at times succumb to few diseases/sickness is something which is very difficult to comprehend. But the point to be noted is that 'humans fight for their survival never-mind the end-result without much regard to the end-result i.e victory or defeat'.

In cases where it is impossible for humans to fight-back - then there arent any option left to the human but to die, but die fighting hard. 'Die fighting hard' is a rather cruel way to die knowing very well about the impending-death. It is prudent for 'medical community' to discuss about this 'euthanasia' rather than a civil-government. If the 'medical community' thinks impending death is inevitable and the suffering could be avoided with 'euthanasia' - then 'so be it'.

Black:

I found the movie to be an 'okay-one'. It certainly not a good movie as critics claim in every magazine or newspaper. I think this movie was hyped-up!

KwK - Rahul Bose and Konkana Sen Sharma:

This show wasnt really interesting, with both the guests refused to divulge into bold issues and refused to comment about 'contemporary bollywood'. The guests of course hinted on the 'disregard for bollywood' but they refused to be come-out boldly about it! Karan's questions were good, but I think his guests are happy to diplomatic and not get muddled into any controversy. This development is bad for the show!
