LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

hriday123 I never ever noticed Irfan until I saw this movie! I knew him for his voice and now I know him for his acting! He is brilliant, he really rocks, all u see is Irfan. However, everything else is same like other Indian movie. There is good suspense thought. You will surely love this movie with pint of beer on your sofa and at good wet evening with rain !! As all know he is one of the best unnoticed actor in Indian cinema this time he came with some good show off!I am sure you will enjoy this movie as long as you like Irfan and you ignore some aspects of movie!Have a pint of beer and enjoy Irfan! If Irfan is reading this comment by any chance, let me tell you that you are one of the best one we have~!

Aam Aadmi One of the earliest-released films of 2005, it tried to cash in early on the country's new-found craving for 'Chamdi' (flesh).Written by Mahesh Bhatt, it was directed by Himanshu Brahmbhatt (who?) and produced by Puja Bhatt. Looks like the entire extended Bhatt family -- Chacha-Chachi, Mama-Mami, Dada-Nani, Mausi, Padosi AND Bhatiji, were involved in SOME way or another with this project.So what was the finished product like? Oh my god, don't ask (tsk tsk). Such a fine talent, no? So all wasted no? They thought as long as Apri Pooja Ni Phillum Chhe, Su Chhe, Saru Chhe, Badha Maja-Maa Mast Chhe!!Except for M M Kreem's music, there is nothing worth mentioning about this sorry skin flick. Watch only if there's nothing else to do.

shariqq Father-Daughter Bhatt have embarked on a mission to ensure Film-Noir is a set genre for Bollywood audience. Jism, Murder and a few other movies of theirs are adaptations of Hollywood movies from years ago. ROG is one of the better movies they have produced, and most of it's credit goes to a brilliant performance by Irfan Khan. I am not exaggerating when I say he is the worthy successor to Naseeruddin Shah in the ease with which he slips into any role he portrays. This movie follows the murder investigation of a beautiful model, Maya Solomon, by 'super-cop' Inspector Uday Rathore (Khan) who suffers from mild-insomnia. While conducting the investigation and piecing together the past of the model, the cop starts falling in love with the image of the dead woman; all the while trying to find her killer. With a cast of a few extras (including a loud 'accented' confused-desi), none of the other performances are worth note. Yet, the movie itself is well made (a proper script, whoa!) with a beautiful score (M.M Kreem) and a brilliant lead performance. The twists (save one) are a little predictable, but the presentation is a revelation for a low-budget Indian movie. Kudos to the director Himanshu Brahmbhatt for a job well done (he is Mahesh Bhatt's AD from the Gumrah & Sadak). If nothing, the movie is worth for the Irfan Khan alone. I have set myself up to watch any movie this man stars in. Oh, and the music is awesome.My Rating ---> 2.5 of 5 Trivia: * Irfan Khan is the same titular 'The Warrior' from Asif Kapadia's epic English movie (which I thought was very slow). * M M Kreem insists on proper poets to pen lyrics for his songs, else he doesn't compose music. (Never expect a 'David Dhawan' song from him). * This movie is a remake of Laura (1944)

Malik Taufiq - ur - Rehman Awan ROG produced by Pooja Bhatt who tasted her first success as a producer with Jism, so she thought to go ahead with such kind of genre and taste the success again but sorry Pooja this time you went wrong as you went wrong with your directorial debut movie Paap where you promoted it as a Sex Movie Jism Part 2 which it was not and because of this reason it was rejected by the audience. Rog was screened last year in Pakistan at Kara Film Festival and Paap was also screened in 2003.The film is about Ilene Hamann around whom the story of 'Rog' moves. She heads for an ad man Suhel Seth and soon their life flow peacefully. But, the silence turns deadly when one day she is found dead.Then the story takes the turn that who has done this? What was the motive behind this brutal act against a woman? And, it is here when the investigating officer Irfaan Khan enters the scene. First he considers it as a usual crime case, but soon realizes that it is not as simple. Hamann's daydream makes him fanatical. Is he sick? But, this is only the start of the confusion that he is going to lead into.What could have been an edge-of-the-seat thriller loses focus soon after the principal characters are introduced. The climax is insensible that whatever shocks a few sequences created just disappear. Even the identity of the murderer does not come as a shock.The worst writing by Mahesh Bhatt, bad direction by Himashu Brambhatt and also not good cinematography by Anshuman Mahaley. 1 out of 5
