^Heard so. "Zindagi na mille gi dobara" was entertaining though. One of the very few Bollywood movies I've seen. :)

"American Beauty" GOD! I DON'T BELIEVE THIS CRAP WON 5 OSCARS :x 5/10

You probably didn't understand the concept of the movie, then.
"I don't think that there's anything worse than being ordinary."-This quote was what the movie was based on. If you understand the motive, you'll definitely like the movie. Otherwise, the screenplay itself is not that much of a fun.

Btw, most of the oscar winning movies are plainly dry to watch. Million Dollar Baby, Crash and Hurt Locker are the perfect examples.

Only that one single quote doesn't make this movie worth-watching.
I don't exactly remember the scenes or the plot much. But seriously, the starting sucked. The ending, well, it sucked even more. The middle part was boring like hell.
To me, a great movie brings out the best in us and makes us think. Here the story is all about a wife killing her husband; a kid selling drugs to get some video tapes and stuff, and a girl who cries when some one calls her ordinary. That's it.

That's exactly what this movie does. Try to get into the skin of that emo daughter for whome her father is just a perverted asshole. Or into the skin of the man, who is telling a story of how he thinks, he is a loser. And you'll know what I'm talking about. Anyways, it's about our different likings.

Btw, I said that the quote represent the story of the movie. Not that the quote was the only good thing about it. -.-

Whatever. It didn't deserve all those Oscars. And I'd never recommend it to anyone.

Neither would I. But the oscar was deserved. Do you know this movie edged out The Sixth Sense to win the oscar? :p

Has anyone seen "Lost in Translation"? The movie is akin to "American Beauty" in 'sucking' and being critically acclaimed. While the blurb seems promising, the movie drags on so excruciatingly, it puts classroom lectures to shame. :p I might prefer "American Beauty" over it.

A strongly suggested movie: Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind. It consists of one of the few non-comic roles of Jim Carrey and has a totally different screenplay that's worth watching. It's not a very famous movie and hasn't grabbed alot of attention but it did grasp me in it's weird plot.
