The Koskers is Back.:

The Koskers is Back.: After a Long time I find the pleasure to present the Koskers for you. Here are the nominations.

Namesake the movie : The movie that I was longing to watch since Months, finally the VCDs and the DVDs were out in the market, I was probably one of the very first ones to have grabbed a Print. The movie is good for those who haven’t read the Book. A lot of moments in the Book were missing in the movie. Like the Father-Son relationship was not well shown in the movie the way it was in the book. Anyways a good movie and we can call it a version of Mira Nair.

Ek Challis Ki Last Local: A good movie that was stretched , could have been better cutting down a few scenes here and there . A one time watch, with some good music. The movie revolves around a youth who is a call center employee dreaming big but, finds fortune one night after he is stranded missing the last local train. The performances were good, especially by Neha Dhupia and Abhay Deol.

Rattouille: An animation presented by none other than Waltz Disney. A great movie with a matured story that entertains all the age group and moves an adult into tears. With a profound thought behind the concept, I must admit that if bollywood has moved a step further towards improvement in quality of film making; Hollywood is nowhere stagnant, that is improving too. It’s a story about a Rat who has a god’s gift of Smell and an ability to cook, one who is immensely inspired by a renowned Chef from Paris. After a playful and living over the edge life at a small village, lands up at Paris due to an accident and finds himself in the restaurant of his Idol, The idol is not alive any more but is alive in the rat’s mind as an inspiration. The inspiration leads the Rat to the Chef’s abandoned son who is suffering from poverty and is the garbage boy at the same restaurant, helps him gain a position in the restaurant and recreate all the hidden and forgotten recipes of his Idol Chef., winning back appreciations from all the critics all over the world, but like every story has a Hero has a villain too , similarly this one has a villain who wants to hide the will written by the deceased according to which the ownership of the restaurant is supposed to be transferred to the boy presumably the son of the Chef. The Boy gets the ownership of the restaurant with the help of the Rat and also wins the heart of all the critics. The Best moment of the film is when the Critic Egor is reminded of his childhood and his mother after he tastes the special recipe that he orders with an intention to pull down the image of the restaurant and that also results in transformation of the character from evil to good unlike other animation of physically destroying the evil, Evil is a state of mind that can be killed and destroyed in one’s mind and not physically, one physical destruction will give birth to several evil mentality. The Movie is so well made that after coming out of the theater one doesn’t feel that he has watched an animated film, it just leaves an impression behind of a film that is so true, and has a profound meaning, that teaches and inspires you to follow your dreams and restores your faith in destiny.

Nothing else can I think of apart from movies, but the above mentiuoned are the best I have watched. So the award Goes to The Rat “ Rattoullie” Whooopppieee.

With the Start of EPL and the Spanish La Liga, the competition gets tougher from coming weeks.
