Black Friday (2004)

MisEntropy Meter: 3/10

The Sentence: Not every bomb explodes as intended; this is one of them.

Dreamgirls (2006)

MisEntropy Meter: 2/10

The Sentence: The snoring from the row behind was not only more musical than the movie, I also suspect it had a more interesting plot.

Eklavya (2007)

MisEntropy Meter: 2/10

The Sentence: Unlike his inspiration from the Mahabharatha, this Ekalavya is in fact the Dronacharya of the plot - extracting unfair gurudakshina from all the characters, and even from the movie itself.

Con Air (1997)

MisEntropy Meter: 2/10

The Sentence: True to its promise, the movie assembles together some of the worst offenders in one place; but with the exception of Nicholas Cage, all of them are behind the screen.

Babel (2006)

MisEntropy Meter: 1/10

The Sentence: Every character in the movie is having the worst day of his/her life, a fate shared by the audience watching it - at least for the duration of the movie.

Happy Feet (2006)

MisEntropy Meter: 3/10

The Sentence: Unlike the characters in it, the movie neither has a heartsong nor does it tap a funky beat.

Sylvia (2003)

MisEntropy Meter: 3/10

The Sentence: My desk encyclopaedia has a short two paragraph entry on Sylvia Plath, and I related more to her anguished life reading that than by seeing this movie.

Kabul Express (2006)

MisEntropy Meter: 3/10

The Sentence: A cliche-ridden plot meets the bullet-ridden but achingly beautiful landscape of Afghanistan.

A Good Year (2006)

MisEntropy Meter: 2/10

The Sentence: The movie is the ironical exception to its own preachy message and tagline: "Everything matures... eventually."

Apna Sapna Money Money (2006)

MisEntropy Meter : 1/10

The Sentence : Conclusive proof that hell is right here on earth; and that there are idiots like me who choose to go there of their own accord.

Dhoom 2 (2006)

MisEntropy Meter : 3/10

The Sentence : If you have seen the posters, you have already seen everything worth seeing in the movie; and probably a little more than that too.

The Departed (2006)

MisEntropy Meter : 3/10
My Peanuts : In case you missed the plot, it gets shot in the head at point blank range midway through the movie.

Don (2006)

MisEntropy Meter : 2/10
My Peanuts : Unfortunately for Farhan Akhtar, people in the real world can, and do, recognise a fake when they see one.
