Masters of Horror: The Washingtonians, a review by addicted2dvd

Title: Masters of Horror: The Washingtonians
Movie Count: 24
TV Ep Count: 9
Time Started: 11am
Plot:My Thoughts:
As with all the Masters of Horror episodes... this one was a blind buy. Going into this one I wasn't sure what to expect as I have read a handful of reviews online and they were pretty well mixed reviews. It had just as many people loving it as they did hating it. So I went into it with less then high hopes. But I must say I really enjoyed every minute of it. I thought that it was not only an interesting... but a fun idea. There was definitely some gore to this episode... but it was much less... or at least less graphic then I have seen in some past episodes. Nothing I would be too concerned with. So once again... I remain impressed with the Masters of Horror series... unfortunately I recently found out that the series will not be returning for a 3rd season. What a shame.

Namastey London, a review by dfmorgan

Namastey London

Year: 2007
Director: Vipul Amrutlal Shah
Cast: Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Rishi Kapoor
Overview: What happens when you transplant an English rose to a countryside in Punjab and expect her to thrive in an alien environment? The rose will either die or rebel. That's exactly what Jazz, rather Jasmeet, does when her father brings her to India and marries her to a rough and tough farmer who can barely speak English. But Jazz is determined to marry Charlie Brown, her British boyfriend. Caught in this emotional tug of war between father and daughter, is poor Arjun, who is helplessly and hopelessly in love with his beautiful but unyielding wife.

Namastey London will determine whether love is more about giving or taking, whether Indian values must surrender to western culture and whether Jazz will win or Jasmeet!

Watched: 4th. Jun 2011
My Thoughts: I decided that I wanted something fairly light but entertaining tonight so went for a slice of Bollywood. A quite enjoyable film with no real surprises. As you watch this film you know where it is heading and what the final outcome will be with just a couple of minor diversions along the way.

My Rating: A quite enjoyable 3
