Good Attempt - But too artificial and flimsy!!

Date of Review:  Feb 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: The movie is based on an interesting icon of Indian industry, but the movie is more flimsy and entertainment oriented than biographical. Just an average fare.
Review: Introduction
Mani Ratnam is one of India's finest directors. Right from his initial movies like Nayakan, Anjali to the more recent ones like Bombay, he has a penchant to present both reality and sensitive issues in an entertaining and shocking...

Review: Guru is the rags-to-riches story of Gurukant Desai [Abhishek Bachchan], the son of a village headmaster in rural Gujarat, who grows to become one of India's biggest industrialists. After flunking a grade in school, Guru decides to drop out of school...

The Guru will keep you laughing and laughing!

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2003
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this movie to any mature audience who wants to laugh for a while. It will definately lift your spirits.
Review: "The Guru," deals with a man who moves from India to make it big in the U.S. Little does he know, the U.S. is not what he expected it to be. He gets tangled up in the life of pornography, where he meets a porn star and befriends her. He decides that...

Funny, light hearted rental

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2003
The Bottom Line: EAST IS EAST meets MOULIN ROUGE on an indie budget.
Review: A hit in England, THE GURU is a low-budget film lovingly made with the production quality and ambition of a big old fashioned musical.

Starring Jimi Mistry (EAST IS EAST), Heather Graham, Marisa Tomei and Christine Baranski, THE GURU is...

A Cute, Charming Comedy (DVD Review)

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2003
The Bottom Line: A funny, sweet movie. A little silly, but good-natured, well-acted and entertaining.
Review:
"The Guru" came out earlier this year, accompanied by little in the way of advertising and a fairly small screen count. Happening upon the film one day, I found it unexpectedly enjoyable - it's one of those movies that walks the between being...

The Guru

Date of Review:  Aug 6, 2003
The Bottom Line: Oh dear, oh dear, jut shoot me now.
Review: Jesus Christ. If I see one more British comedy like this I will have to go on a rampage. It's just horrible, all the British seem to be able to come up with are un-funny romantic comedies. "Four Weddings and a Funeral" was good, but to keep on...
