Why?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Movies are fun. I like them. So I often look for reviews on the Web. You know reviews , simple intro-to-the-story type documents. And I find them. Oh, I find a lot of them , both for English and Hindi movies. Every Tom, Dick or Harry, or should I say, every Ram, Shyam and Gopal have their own website, offering reviews. These range from really good reviews, to totally mindless ones. But what none of them gives me, is a recommendation for a movie. Let me rephrase that, what none of them gives me are recommendations to movies I like. Yeah, once in a while I&#8217;ll come upon a reviewer who&#8217;ll be right in sync. So then I watch out for him\/her, and the next time they&#8217;ll be way off. You see what I mean ?<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;ve decided to compile my favorite movies and their reviews here in my blog, in the hope that this blog will serve as an organized movie guide. I&#8217;m primarily dealing with Hindi movies here, but have <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fridaynirvana.com\/film\/browse-english-movie-reviews\">reviewed some of the English ones too<\/a>.
