Thor 2 Full movie Free

http://www.i-m.co/sefaly/thor2/

Is it a Quantum Field Generator or a a Soul Forge? It’s both, and that’s why ‘Thor: The Dark World,’ like ‘Thor’ before it, is one of the best films that blends sci-fi and fantasy. Add the humor, star charisma and nods to the wider Marvel Movie Universe and you’ve got 120 minutes of straight-up nerdy glee. If dorky blood flows through your veins, you will love this movie.

Something called the Aether is flowing within Dr. Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), the left-behind gal pal of the chiseled, blonde Norse legend/space creature Thor (Chris Hemsworth) – he who swings a mighty hammer and melts hearts with a smile. The Aether is a gooey plasma of evil, or something, which is hidden “between the realms,” but winds up getting absorbed by our curiosity-prone scientist. If nefarious Malekith and his Dark Elves get ahold of Jane and the Aether at the right time (now, wouldn’t you know) and the right place (Earth, naturally) it will mean doom for everyone.

Thus Thor must take Jane to Asgard. While getting checked out by an other-worldly physician (played by Alice Krige, the Borg Queen, my fellow nerdlingers!) a crazy 3D projection of sparkly cells hovers above Jane’s body. The Earther and Alien share a little banter over what to call it (even when facing a grave medical threat, Portman’s Foster sticks to her guns and says it is a Quantum Field Generator) but no matter what you call it, it’s a great deal of fun.

The special effect – to linger on this one perfect moment from the film a bit longer – resembles the silvery projections that were all over Krypton in this summer’s ‘Man of Steel.’ It’s hard not to compare the two films, as they are so similar and yet so different. The DC movies are big and brooding. ‘Thor: The Dark World,’ despite equally high stakes (and even the sacrifice of a supporting character) manages to stay light. The conclusion of ‘Man of Steel’ rained death from above. The conclusion of ‘Thor: The Dark World’ features funny, anarchic zips between parallel universes and near-madcap one-liners. Both styles have their merit.

The Hemsworth-Portman scenes work best. As in the first film these lovers from two worlds are blazing with an unquantifiable X-factor. There is no finer love story, which usually feels shoehorned, in any recent superhero movie. Kat Dennings as Dr. Foster’s assistant (and Jonathan Howard as the assistant’s assistant) are terrific as comic relief, though the big spectacle of this all is already pretty goofy. The Dark Elves’ siege of Asgard is a well-executed display of crazy-looking ships, warriors in helmets, lasers blasting out of staffs and hand grenades that suck its victims into miniature black holes. It is top-shelf lunacy. The action kinda resembles ‘The Phantom Menace’ a little bit, but I mean that completely in a good way.

Not everything is perfect. Malekith is a bit flat as a villain, but I think this is in service of keeping Loki front and center. The two brothers work side-by-side (part of an elaborate escape, which is edited together like a caper film) and Tom Hiddleston once again sinks his teeth into the role. Also, Sif and the Warriors Three really take a back seat this time. As anecdotal evidence I took a guest to ‘Thor: The Dark World’ who had not seen the first one, and she did not pick up that Volstagg was all that important to the Thor mythos.

The trade-off, however, is a film packed with other cool stuff. There are rock creatures and quick trips to lands like Vanaheim and Svartalfheim and Natalie Portman wearing a cloak. Plus the Aether and Nine Realms Convergence, which I’ll need a moment with the Marvel Wiki to fully understand, looks pretty damn cool.

For every lovably turgid, portentous moment that Anthony Hopkins’ Odin babbles about destiny, trickster Loki presents a secret passageway with a “ta-da!” ‘Thor: The Dark World’ is everything I want out of a movie starring a handsome God in a red cape.

All in All Azhaguraja is the 4th comedy entertainer from director Rajesh and this time it is Karthi teaming up with the 'Comedy Superstar' Santhanam. The movie is expected to continue the director's enviable run so far. 

The movie follows the regular Rajesh 'family entertainer' template and it tries to offer maximum laughs to the audience for the price of their ticket money. Can Santhanam manage to lift the fortunes of yet another Rajesh movie? 

Karthi plays Raja, the head of a local cable channel while Santhanam plays Kalyanam, his employee, side-kick and 'Man Friday' rolled into one. Raja falls for 'Chitra' Devi Priya, a stubborn young woman with dreams of making it as an artist, come what may. The rest of the movie is obviously about how he gets her hand, with a few odds stacked against him. 

From 'Nanben Da' in Boss to 'Factu Factu' in OKOK, Santhanam's one-liners in Rajesh's movies are always on the mark. Here it is 'Oh Ho Na Na' and though it sounds funny, the comedian overuses it. 

Karthi and Santhanam have shared good vibes in movies like Siruthai and Saguni but here the magic isn't to be seen regularly. But the way they address each other officially as 'MD Sir' and 'Officer Sir', stands out. Santhanam is still a show stealer whenever he is on screen. Such is the variety of expressions on his visage. 

Veteran actors Kota Srinivasa Rao, M.S.Bhaskar and Naren showcase their comedic abilities while Saranya Ponvannan continues to get typecast. This role offers nothing to meet her outstanding abilities. Prabhu plays Karthi's dad with typical authority and confidence. 

Though the 80s flashback is intentionally over-the-top, Karthik's body language and voice modulation as the junior Prabhu is commendable. The actor sure has put in the efforts. Santhanam shines as the Kaali Annan, reminding us of the legendary Suruli Rajan. Karthi and Santhanam's makeover and efforts are appreciable, and the references to the popular movies of that era and particularly Superstar Rajini, will make you smile. 

Karthi eases through his role. His dancing skills have improved noticeably and he looks handsome and fit. The addition of a needless little heroism element to the interval segment sticks out sorely. 

Kajal Agarwal looks simple, charming and carries off her ethnic costumes very well, thanks to her slender and shapely frame. All her efforts to learn dance under the tutoring of M.S.Bhaskar offer a few enjoyable moments in the second half. In the same way, when she confidently goes about singing in the most untrained and unpleasant manner possible, Karthi's reactions are hilarious. Towards the end, Kajal, Karthi and Naren are involved in a little 'passing the parcel' exercise where Kajal is caught between her lover and dad, as they try to convince her about her future. 

Thaman's numbers such as 'Yaarukkum Sollama', 'Unnai Partha' and 'All in All' sound good, and his background score for Santhanam's Kareena Chopra portions are delightful. Speaking of Kareena Chopra, Santhanam’s elaborate makeover, costumes and props are authentic to say the least. 

The length of the movie works against it and with the absence of scenes which will make you roll over in boisterous laughter, the movie could have used some trimming. Though the laughs are spread across a few moments, when AAA is pitted against Rajesh's other wholesome 'laughathons' such as OKOK and Boss, it falls way short.

Krrish 3 Full Movie

HERE's A MOVIE WE ALL HAVE WAITED FOR :   Krrish 3

Krrish 3' film review: Hrithik Roshan perfect choice to do this role

Cast: Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, Vivek Oberoi, Kangana Ranaut

Director: Rakesh Roshan

The Indian Express Rating: **

'Krrish 3' is a superhero film. It is also a throwback to the creaky family entertainers Bollywood used to make. The hero has special powers, sure, but also a loving daddy, a lovely wifey, an attractive moll and a villain with severe daddy issues. Only a pet poodle or parrot is missing.

Superheroes have been around in Hindi cinema for decades, but huge technology jumps have made 'Krrish 3' the slickest of them all, special effects-wise. The rest of it is marred by tackiness. When Krrish is doing his derring-do stunts, we watch, even if we've seen Superman do this 30 years ago. But when he delivers maudlin dialogue about fathers and mothers and bravery, we are pulled back to the ground with a thud, with the superhero the Roshans made.

Hrithik is the perfect choice amongst the Bollywood superstar lot to do this role. With his superbly articulated chest, each muscle moving and shiny and oiled, Krrish doesn't even need a mask and a cape. But the ensemble is eye-catching, and we ignore his immaculately-styled long hair, flying in the wind, when he is whizzing about rescuing little boys. Roshan Jr is as likeable and earnest as he usually is, but can't rise above the mothballed treatment. Roshan Sr, who has written and directed, should have given the superhero more to do.

But he gets stuck in bringing the backstory forward. The soppy but sweet `Koi Mil Gaya's ( 2003) socially challenged but brilliant Rohit begets Krishna, who finds his super-powers in 'Krrish' ( 2006). Both the ageing Rohit and Krishna star in `'Krrish 3', and both roles are played by Hrithik. Priyanka, playing Krishna's TV reporter wife, has to look on admiringly as Hrithik does his standard dance number. He is still as dextrous, but the dancing has no zing, and the songs are terrible. All is hunky dory, with Krrish doing his superhero stuff, rescuing a damaged aircraft ( there are no seat belts around the screaming passengers : should we care, or does anything go if it is a superhero film? ). And then Kaal ( Oberoi, kitted out in pale pancake and snarls), with the help of his coldly beautiful creation Kaya ( Ranaut, fancy-plaited and slitty-eyed) and a few other `human-aliens', rears up in his den in some snowy mountains in an unspecified spot. And begins his plans of decimating the human race.

At which point I stopped asking for even slim logic to connect the 'maanwars', Kaal's word for his man and animal creatures, and scientists doing hocus pocus in labs and chattering about viruses and antidotes and so on. I kept trying to ignore the blatant brands promotion that 'Krrish 3' turns into. I stopped hoping that Roshan Sr would abandon his old-style filmmaking to bring us something dazzlingly new. I was left with a few truly spectacular scenes—full marks to the SFX team-- in which Krrish leapfrogs across the sky. This is where some kids ( and adults) may clap and cheer. The rest of it is the usual old `ma-pitaji ' mush-fest.

And oh yes, there is sure to be a Krrish 4. Or given that there was no 2 between the original Krrish and this third instalment, maybe that will be 5. Whatever, I'm not holding my breath.  http://www.sominaltvfilms.com/krrish-3-2013-dvdscr.html
