Another week, another line-up of impressive films.
While Bollywood fans would most likely pick “Agent Vinod”, that stars real-life couple Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor in the lead, the more discerning movie-goer might opt for Stephen Daldry’s heartrending “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close” or Menno Meyjes’ riveting tale of a matador in “Manolete”.
Although the critics are divided on the verdict for the movies, we still it’s worth your time.
Whatever your choice, we think it’s going to be a good run at the box-office.
