The Help (2011)
9/10
Why did i not see it earlier:Superb performances and brilliant storytelling..don't miss it
23 June 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This is the first time that I am attempting to write a well analyzed review for A MOVIE AND ABOUT HOW THIS MOVIE MADE ME LAUGH AND CRY. The Help according to me is one of the best movies to have come out in recent times. Right from the performances to the storytelling everything was just next to PERFECT. There are moments in the movie when you will cry and there are moments when you will laugh and isn't that what storytelling is all about. The movie is about how the African American maids were treated during the time of the civil rights movement But the movie has so many layers that it hits at so many levels. Most of the stories in the movie are about how there existed discrimination during that time and how the African American COLORED maids were treated by the families they worked for but it also gives beautiful examples of some employers being good to their maids and a different kind of discrimination which exists for a girl who has just gotten married rich and is considered WHITE TRASH. So you see discrimination in so many forms: discrimination because of skin color, discrimination because of wealth and other forms. The relationship these maids have with the children that aren't theirs is also beautiful. There are so many scenes that move the viewer especially the one in which Constantine is fired and Cicely Tyson is just so fine in the scene where she makes an impact without even opening her mouth with no lines at all. This one is sure going to my favorites list. Please don't miss it. It would touch you at so many levels that you would feel that why you hadn't seen it earlier.

Serendipity (2001)
9/10
destiny and romance-a great combo
8 July 2007
The way the word 'serendipity'sounds is like music to the ears and what it means is simply wonderful .I love this movie.After all it has the combination of destiny and love.I believe firmly in both.The two main characters share a few moments together and the entire film shows their longing for each other.This is what makes the movie charming and enjoyable.John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale share amazing chemistry and perform their roles very convincingly. Watch this movie if you are a believer of destiny and love romantic movies.Even if you are a non believer ,i am sure you will still love and enjoy this movie.It is different and charming.Don't miss this one.You will fall in love with the movie and its name.

the beauty of dreams. I love the movie
2 August 2006
I really love the movie.It is like a sweet,soft,innocent romance which kind of can always make me smile. I think its beauty lies in its simplicity ,which i love.I also feel it has a dreamy feel to it ,which i absolutely adore.I like the first one also but this one a little more. I feel that Anne Hathaway and Chris Pine look kind of cute together but i wish there were some more romantic scenes between them.You cant actually watch a movie expecting reality out of it at each point.This movie actually feels like a dream unfolding in front of you,which is beautiful and enchanting--which girl wouldn't want to be a princess and fall in love with someone like Nicolaus.I find Michael's disappearance strange.Do watch this movie if u are a die hard romantic and like romance at its best---innocent ,child like. I happen to love it and shall wait for more.
