First Time Viewing:
Jhoom Barabar Jhoom (2007) 3/5 stars
Parts of it were unappealing, but it has two excellent songs and great performances by Priety Zinta and Abhishek Bachchan.
Delhi 6 (2009) 3/5 stars
Started off really good, but by the end I was rather puzzled. Abhishek Bachchan gave a good performance, but Sonam Kapoor was unimpressive.
Dhoom 2 (2006) 3/5 stars
Action packed and fun, except for Aishwarya Rai's performance --she was so unsuited to the character that it was painful to watch.
Rewatched:
Raavan (2010) 5/5 stars (my review here)
My husband watched it with me this time, and he felt pretty much the same as I did.
Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006) 5/5 stars (my review here)
This was my third viewing and, if anything, I cried even harder.
While You Were Sleeping (1995) 5/5 stars
I first watched this in the theater, and I can't tell you how many times after that. This was the first time in a decade or so, though, and it stands the test of time. It's a fantastic movie.
Funny Face (1957) 3/5 stars
I loved this as a teen, but wasn't as impressed this time around. The plot was thin, Astaire and Hepburn seemed mismatched, and her singing was weak. Costumes were fantastic, though, and Kay Thompson gave a stellar performance.
Veer Zaara (2004) 5/5 stars (my review here)
I cried so hard this second viewing that I gave myself not only a headache, but a stomach ache as well.
