Number for May is 23

23. Robinhood (3/10)
Age old story of Robinhood done to death many times. I was actually very bored in the movie and did not find anything interesting. The film was so dark (literally), it just did not hold my attention.

22. Prince Of Persia (5/10)
I thought the movie was interesting, kept your attention intact in a lot of places and had a story to tell. What I am tired of is costume dramas with thin story line and its all about special effects. I am longing for some good cinema. Jake Gyllenhall was good but I did not think the main actress was beautiful to the extent she was made out to be.

21. Edge Of Darkness (2/10)
Mel Gibson meets his daughter after along time and then she is murdered right in front of him. He now has to find the reasons and the things he finds out are just shocking one after the other with a predictable ending. I personally could not connect to the film at all even with the characters. It was plain jane.

20. Law Abiding Citizen (6/10)
When Gerard Butler's family is murdered and the one of the killers does not die because he turned against the other one because of prosecutor Jamie Fox, his life is turned upside down. He takes 10 years to plan to take revenge with everyone involved in this using his brain and still doing everything within the law. Only Jamie Fox can stop the killing and finds himself in a desperate race against time facing a deadly adversary who seems always to be one step ahead. This was definitely a very interesting film.

19. Kushti (Hindi) (0.5/10)
A very stupid film where kushti is a big deal and there are 2 rival parties. Rajpal Yadav falls in love with the girl of one of the rival camps and then he has to fight a kushti against the might Khalli to win his love. This one was plain simple stupid waste of time and money

18. Pankh (Hindi) (1/10)
Really bad film. It had an interesting concept of a other forcing her son to play girl roles as a baby and the boy then grows up to be a very confused man. What the heck was Bipasha doing in the film. It was absurd and stupid. The movie was really really bad. I did not know that Lilette Dubey could also overact.

17. The Japanese Wife (Bengali/English) (2/10)
Aparna Sen has made good meaningful films but what was this? Just a random film where 2 lovers across the two nations share a life, a marriage without even knowing or meetig each other. The entire film goes in letter exchanges and life moves on. This could be Japanese, Irish , Korean or anything for that matter. I want Aparna Sen of Mr and Mrs Iyer days
