Righteous Kill (2008)

A pair of veteran New York City police detectives are on the trail of a vigilante serial killer. After 30 years as partners in the pressure cooker environment of the NYPD, highly decorated Detectives David Fisk and Thomas Cowan should be ready for retirement, but aren’t. Before they can hang up their badges, they are called in to investigate the murder of a notorious pimp, which appears to have ties to a case they solved years before. Like the original murder, the victim is a suspected criminal whose body is found accompanied by a four line poem justifying the killing. When additional crimes take place, it becomes clear the detectives are looking for a serial killer, one who targets criminals that have fallen through the cracks of the judicial system. His mission is to do what the cops can’t do on their own–take the culprits off the streets for good. The similarities between the recent killings and their earlier case raise a nagging question: Did they put the wrong man behind bars?.

Bachna Ae Haseeno (2008)

Bachna Ae Haseeno is a film directed by Siddharth Raj Anand and produced by Aditya Chopra. As this film is made under Yashraj banner so it has all the magic like other Yashraj films. Ranbir Kapoor is playing the lead role against three co-stars Bipasha Basu, Deepika Padukone and Manisha Lamba in this film.

The guy Anand (Ranbir Kapoor) is a complete flirt. He wears his heart on his sleeve. Enter three women Mahi (Minissha Lamba), Radhika (Bipasha Basu) and Gayatri (Deepika Padukone) in different stages of his life. Love is in the air. Two dream of marrying him, but he ditches them and the third, whom he intends marrying, says a blunt ‘No’ to the offer. Heart-broken, the guy realizes his folly and plans on doing prayashchit. He goes back to the first two women and apologises. What happened next is all about the film.

Bachna Ae Haseeno has splendid moments in the first hour. In fact, the three stories, minus the culmination of course, are beautifully told in the first hour itself. There’re some attention-grabbing moments in this hour and you genuinely feel exhilarated after having watched those portions. Cameraman Sunil Patel gives a breathtaking canvass of the exotic locales of Switzerland, the colours vibrant and the music groovy.

On the acting front, Ranbir Kapoor has shown his talent and kep the Kapoor flag flying high, successfully shouldering the film with the confidence in his abilities as a performer. Bipasha Basu is fine as before, Manisha Lamba is ok but has a long way to go, Deepika Padukone could not do much in this film she is just ok.

On the whole, Bachna Ae Haseeno has a great cast, great chemistry amongst actors, great locations and some great moments but it suffers to a major extent, due to its screenplay running out of steam. The film could be much better if some major attention would have given on the screenplay. The storyline is cool, if you go by the segment this film is targeted at the youth.
