Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides - Preview
Director - Rob Marshall (Previous Film: Nine)
In a nutshell....
Captain Jack Sparrow crosses paths with Angelica, a woman from his past, and he is not sure whether he loves her. He doubts that she might be using him to find the Fountain of Youth. Jack finds himself on an unexpected adventure when Angelica forces him aboard Queen Anne's Revenge, the ship of her father Blackbeard. Jack does not know who to fear more, Angelica or his old foe, Blackbeard.
Captain Jack Sparrow's back, but this time his accomplices look different. Some say the exclusion of Knightley and Bloom is a heavy loss for the franchise while others are of the view that Cruz's inclusion cancels that out. Frankly, I'm not too concerned as far as Depp stays around. With his classy and loony style Depp has made several fans across the world. The franchise has seen a lot of success thanks to Depp and now it comes as a test for him and the makers as they go from a famous and successful trio to a potentially explosive duo. On Stranger Tides has a good plot and the prospect of watching it in 3D, a first in this franchise, will attract larger audiences to the cinemas than ever before. A change in the director's seat might see a better, improved Pirates movie, who knows! There is no doubt that this film will see a massive opening and with the decent Cannes reviews, I'm sure this one will fare very well.

In a nutshell....
Abhimanyu is a new student at a prime medical institution and defies his seniors and the practices of ragging. Professor Aniruddh is impressed with this new student's rationality and tenacity when he decides to dispel all rumours by getting into a room that has been forbidden for years.The professor struggles to convince his student that it is all in the mind, as Abhimanyu struggles to separate illusion from reality.
There's a great dearth of good thrillers in Indian cinema and that is where even films like 404 can be a great revelation. Although there isn't any big name in the cast and the director hasn't been very successful in his previous ventures, this film seems to offer some good thrills with a good plot. After watching a special screening some of the biggest celebs and filmmakers said a lot of good things about this film and this is the reason why the curiosity around it has increased. In fact, the makers have used those praises for promoting the film. At the box office, 404 will only do well through the word of mouth publicity because of the lack of a star cast.

In a nutshell....
Rajat, Chaudhary and Liquid are three best friends who have the same problem that they do not have a girlfriend. Rajat finds Neha who is everything that he ever wanted but things get ugly when they move in together. Chaudhary meets Riya, who is already dating someone else, and strikes a good rapport with her and eventually wins her. Liquid meets Charu, the only girl he has ever spoken to properly. She considers him nothing more than a great friend. All three men who wanted to have women in their lives will now have to tackle exactly those women to make their lives better.
Pyaar Ka Punchnama combines the most cliched stories to make a new kind of a film. We've come across several such stories in bits and pieces in some or the other film. It is trying to be very bold and straight in your face stuff, which, if not done well, will definitely go against the makers. All the main characters make their debut with this film along with the director. The trailer suggests it to be a total candy floss flick but this candy might not be sweet like some of those of its kind. It would be a huge surprise if this film manages to recover its money. But the uncensored trailers and the Kutta song are have become popular amongst the youth. To be successful on the box office this film will have a mountain to climb.
