Khuda ke Liye


People, as you know our cinema industry is on a downfall these days and we can only find movies with titles that include "jatt","gujjar"and etc.In this situation all of a sudden, different big movie makers like Javed Shiekh, Samina Peerzada and others like Reema(Film actress) have made some good big budget movies for the revival of Cinema.In this Hype about 2 years ago we heard that Shoaib Mansoor is going to make a movie.Shoaib Mansoor as we all know is a perfectionist.What ever work he does he does it to perfection.Master pieces like "Unkahi" and "Alpha Bravo Charlie" are proofs of his excellence.Now finally after 2 years he has released his movie named"Khuda ke Liye" and this movie has overpassed all efforts for the revival of cinema and actually attaracted public to cinemas as house full boards are hanging outside cinemas.I was very excited when this movie was released.So yesterday I went to DHA Cinema in Lahore Defense and bought a ticket for the 9-12 show.this is a newly opened cinema and people if you are in Lahore then this is the Cinema to watch this movie.The environment is great,facilities are great and airconditioning is unbearable sometimes.Seats are comfortable with head rest and a cup holder.You can buy popcorns and other snacks from the cafeteria.Now about the movie,this movie has touched sensitive issues of our society about which we dont like to discuss openly.This movie maybe the first movie ever made in Pakistan that has made people to think and open their minds.Unlike other majority romantic movies of Lollywood this movie actually has not only romance in it but also other things like a good story,an objective,good music,and most importantly a good moral that is actually making people think about the issues.Issues like music, is it allowed or not allowed in Islam, issues like western clothing, issues like marriage into other religions,issues like women rights in Pakistan and issues like the problems of Muslims In western countries rising after 9/11.The term "khuda ke Liye" is basically a scream by our society to some extremist MAULANAS of our society, who are using islam for their own purposes.How they brainwash our youth into doing things that are totally unislamic.Then this movies shows us some liberalal, moderate Maulanas who have their own point of view and how our youth is strangled and confused between all this.

Chain Reaction


How can you miss a movie in which 3 great stars including Keanu Reeves, Morgan Freeman and Rachel Reisz are working together....one of those movies which tells us about these under ground agencies working and making decisions even above the governments and have more power than anyone.......they are responsible for all the big happenings around us its just that we dont know abt them.......ordinary people like us cant even think at that level...
This movie is abt some genius people who invented some new kind of energy source and the so called underground agencies try to get hold of it......and in the plot keanu and rachel are framed of murder so they can be used....but these two lead FBI to unveal another government conspiracy......

DEJA VU



Deja Vu is the movie I have been waiting for a long time and finally its out on DVD.I like Danzel Washington movies cuz of his great acting.He creates a buzz in his movies.He keeps his style and takes it into every movie he does, he always wears those same kinds of simple shirts but the real thing is his acting. He's like Guru of these detective/FBI kind of roles and does them to the perfection.I mean it cant get better than this.They have captured the mystery of deja vu in this movie, which all of us experience in our daily lives.

I myself used to think about this concept of deja vu and thought maybe one day a movie concerning this concept will be made and now it is.People this is a great movie to watch and i rate this movie (7 out of 10).

Difficulty Selecting Movies

Iam a big movie collector too so, choosing good movies was always a problem for me.I chose many bad movies till i got good in selection.I always looked for some cool movies list and stuff like that but none of the information was helpful.Every where there was an alphabetical list of movies which was of no use.Now because i passed through all the process ,i can recommend movies.I willl try to recommend many movies on weekly basis, but public comments have great importance.....
