Color of Money, The (1986) - Sequel to The Hustler (1961), 25 years later. Directed by Martin Scorsese. Paul Newman ages as Fast Eddie. Tom Cruise is the new kid on the block. Interesting, even if you have never played pool.
DVD. 6.5/10. imdb

Awaara, Paagal, Deewaana (2002) - akshay, suni shetty, aaftab. the real hero though is paresh rawal. he provides some hilarious moments. okay timepass.
VHS. 5.5/10

Bada Kabootar - Deven Verma produced. A C-grade venture throughout. Ashok Kumar plots a plan and form a gang to make it work. could have been interesting if the makers were interested. disheartening to see RDB gem like 'haay re haay re' getting wasted in movies such as this.
VHS. 2.5/10.

Yahi Hai Zindagi - sanjeev kumar, utpal dutt. typical south Indian family fare. sanjeev excels. rest are mediocre. the idea of the movie is fine, yet the assumptions and results are cliched. very predictable and soon gets boring.
VHS. 4/10
