Welcome | Halla Bol | My Name is Anthony Gonsalves
From comments I posted elsewhere.
Welcome
Avoidable.
Akshay Kumar was highly off color and boring in this movie.
Nana Patekar was fun. As always. Anil Kapoor was great too. The movie was probably only bearable and fun when they were on (apart from katrina ;-).
The second part was too streched out.
Halla Bol
The movie was good in the first half but it managed to mess itself in the second half. It couldn't decide if it wanted to be an RDB or a masala movie.
The scenes like the pankaj kapoor with truck, at pool and ajay devgan's rug scene could have been well avoided.
I think the villan was acting well but all these silly scenes and his P.A. etc messed up his fear factor.
And it would probably have been better if the story was set in Delhi and not Bombay since the main inspiration of the movie is the Jessica Lal murder case

Well. Overall it was good timepass cause the story line was fun and I thought the supporting actors like Mithun, Anupam Kher and Pawan Malhotra did a good job.
Nikhil was woefully short of ammunation whenever the scene required that "something extra" be it an emotional scene or a funny scene or a acting out scene. His role was very well set up so one always felt and supported him somewhat but I always felt one could have used a stronger actor.
Oh and Amrita Rao was cute. As always. :)
Coming Up: Golden Compass tomorrow. (And Bombay to Bangkok sometime after that).
