Its summer time and Hollywood is spoiling us with choices. First Iron Man II, then Shrek and now its Prince of Persia! You create any parameter or yardstick; still you can’t underestimate the super thrilling video game Prince of Persia on any of its aspects. The game itself has a mind boggling fan base. So when Disney decided to make a movie on it, it became evident that people will look forward to it with baited breath.
The lanky and boyish star Jake Gyllenhaal turned himself into all muscled hunk, and he plays the fighter prince Dastan in the movie. Usually movies based on video games are full of mindless action sequences, and most of the time story takes the back seat. Be it Max Payne, Hit Man or Tomb raider. But POP is not an action junk, because the makers of the movie have taken help from the creator of the game, Jordan Mechner. He has adapted this game for the big screen.
The base line of the 20 year old franchise is same as the video game. There is a villain king, who is going to unleash the deadly sand storm. Now, the prince has to stop him from doing that. He takes help from a rival princess who is his enemy. You may say that it is the same story shown in the game. To that I will say no, because Mechner has rewritten the story so that it can suit the screen. The game itself had a brilliant story line, with a lot of twists and turns. Few of those things are intact in the movie and few new twists have been incorporated, which keeps you glued to the screen till the end.
The leading men, Jake as prince and Kingsley, have portrayed their role brilliantly. In fact Kingsley has overshadowed Jake at many places. Arterton also did judgment to her screen time.
The movie has a humorous undertone. But above all it’s the CGI, Camera Work and breath taking epic battle scenes which steals the show. The music is also very brilliant. If you have loved the game, then you are gonna enjoy the movie for sure. The only things you need to keep in mind are that the movie is not a ditto copy of the game, rather it has its own course, so don’t be judgmental.
The other thing which I would like to add is that POP is purely a man thing. Girls are not gonna enjoy it much, so try to go with your friends and it will be a roller coaster ride for you. You don’t see such movies every now and then.

Ever wonder why the Twilight star never comes up with the revelation about their alleged love story? Because there is not the least truth in the gossip? Or because there is some other reason behind the hush-hush thing?
There have been several times when Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are spotted together. There are evidences which show these two hotties have been more than friends. Not only the photographs which show the duo sharing some precious moments together, there are few hints passed by the duo itself which leads us to smell something fishy!
Though many would argue that nothing written on Robsten’s alleged romance is true, but then we would like to remind them that there is no smoke without fire!
So, why do the stars don’t admit their relationship status? Here are some feasible reasons…
1. May be because both the stars are determined to keep their relation a private one and don’t really like the media attention!
2. It is quite possible that RPattz and KStew love to keep their fans guessing about their relationship status and hence the furtive approach.
3. Because they are very obedient to their respective managers who told them once to concentrate on their careers and to maintain distance for the same!
4. It may be possible that the stars are actually not involved romantically with each other and hence no declaration!
5. Finally, because once their romance would be official, the frenzy would die out and the rumor mills would stop spilling the beans. Wouldn’t that be unfair to cut short a big source of publicity?

Just when you thought that Kendra Wilkinson has captured the hottest spot of the cyber space once controlled by Kim Kardashian, the 29 year old socialite proved it wrong by bouncing back to the media with some spicy revelations.
Kim Kardashian has recently claimed that she is a natural beauty who has never been under knives!
As reported by New York Daily News, the hottest of the Kardashian sisters has had chitchat with ABC’s Cynthia McFadden on “Nightline” that aired on 24th May 2010, Monday and Kim has been all candid about her beauty secrets.
The gorgeous model says that she is a natural beauty and has never done a plastic surgery. She has never been under knives, though she is open to the idea of getting a plastic surgery done to her nose, or boobs!
Yes, her boobs are real too, as Kim claims! However, she adds that she would like to have her boobs done! She doesn’t mind to make her twin assets more alluring and perfect ones. But for now, her breasts are indeed natural and she is even ready to remove her bra to prove her point!
Wow, that’s a tempting offer, isn’t it?
Does that mean Kim is a natural beauty? Well, not completely! The 29 year old says that though she has never tried cosmetic surgery, she has used botox for her skin. She doesn’t hesitate declaring that her skin is all so smooth and perfect because of botox injections!
Now that’s a bold confession about botox! But about the plastic surgery part? Do you think that her breasts and nose are untouched?

Cast – Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis, Cynthia Nixon
Director – Michael Patrick King
Distributor – Warner Brothers
Release – 27th May 2010
Runtime – 146mins
Genre – Romantic comedy
Pros – Few breathtaking moments featuring Jessica, Kim and others
Cons – Tacky storyline, weak performances, too long a movie!
Ratings – 2.5/5
Synopsis – The plot is mainly about the present lives of the four female friends Carrie Bradshaw (Parker), Samantha Jones (Kim), Charlotte York Goldenblatt (Kristin) and Miranda Hobbes (Nixon). The movie starts with a quick flashback to show how the four friends met two years back.
It is the current year now and the four friends have more stressful lives than before. All except Samantha are married. Samantha is 52 now and still coping with her sexual desires and fighting with her menopause at the same time.
Samantha gets an opportunity to fly to Arab to devise a PR campaign for a sheik. She even arranges for an all-expenses-paid luxury vacation to Abu Dhabi for her friends. It is there in the Middle East where the four end up having a culture clash with the locals in terms of style and attitudes with the Muslim society. The clash leads to a comic twist amid the romantically confused lives of the four ladies!
Review – SATC2 has failed to make a strong impression and has got only 12% positive reviews. It is the basic plot which doesn’t make an impact on the viewers. As far as the glamour and popularity of SATC was concerned, it was absolutely nowhere to be found.
There was almost no sex and very little city in the much anticipated movie of 2010. The plot was mindless and lacked the basic knitting which a big banner movie like this would have required.
Moreover a stretch of almost 2.5 hours was just too much for the audience to bear!
There was nothing much the actors like Parker and Catrall could do. The outfits were outrageous, the high heels were boring instead of glamorous and the fake orgasms were absolutely cheesy.
Conclusion – Expectations were high for SATC2 and sadly it failed miserably. A strict no-no for the men, and a word of caution for women!

It seems the time is over for Brangelina, the top Hollywood couple! And guess what, a brand new power couple is soon to take over the ruling position of Pitt and Jolie!
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart? Nope!
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth? Not either!
It’s Katy Perry and Russell Brand we are referring! Rather it’s the singer herself who has gone with the comparison with none other than Brangelina. She feels that her bond with her fiancé is hot enough to be the power couple of the industry replacing Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
As reported by Metro, the 25 year old singer was heard commenting on the fame of Russell Brand and Katy Perry. The occasion was premiere of her beau’s latest movie “Get Him To The Greek” that would open on 27th May 2010.
Katy was evidently confident about the success of the movie and she felt that such would be the overwhelming reaction of the fans for Brand that the couple would be the hottest talk of the town. In her own words, Katy said that she felt like there was a new Brangelina in the making after this movie!
Katy and Russell have been together since September 2009 before getting engaged in January 2010.
Though it is true that the couple is so much in love with each other and is of course an item, but replacing Brangelina will be really doubtful as far as popularity and fame are concerned!
We are happy to see such high hopes of Katy, but we are equally sorry that it might take few more years to be the new Brangelina!

It has been the latest fashion of the media to compare anyone and everyone young with the teen idol Justin Bieber. Be it Greyson Chance or Travis Garland, everyone has got a chance to share space with the teenage sensation!
But how far is it explainable to compare someone so famous and successful with an absolutely novice youngster? We don’t see any point bringing up a comparison between a superstar with someone who has just stepped into the showbiz world.
It was Greyson Chance, the 12 year old wonder kid on The Ellen DeGeneres Show who spellbound everyone with his performance on Lady GaGa’s “Paparazzi”. Not only was he super talented and had a perfect vocal coordination, but the fact that he had facial resemblance with the 16 year old Bieber and was found in YouTube also made him an apt choice for matching up to Justin Bieber.
Well, as a matter of fact, Greyson has been signed by Ellen for her new record label eleveneleven!
As if Greyson wasn’t enough that Travis Garland joined as a brand new comparison. The 20 year old shared the stage of American Idol with the Canadian singer on 19th May 2010 as a guest performer when the newfound talent drove the audience crazy with his debut single “Believe”.
And hence the comparison rolled on once again!
But isn’t it too early to compare fresh faces with someone so established and successful? Justin is an immensely successful and an internationally acclaimed superstar. Won’t the untimely comparison affect the performance of all the kids involved?
That’s quite right! The consistent assessment would not only affect the budding stars, but it would also have an impact on the performance of the cute petite singer.
Give the boys some space and time to grow before actually going into such comparison. Aren’t we right?

Kendra Wilkinson is a richer woman these days. No matter how much she cries that the sex tape broke her heart, her wallet is getting filled up and that too for doing some bedroom actions.
Well, sorry for being immodest but we think we are plain jealous.
We mean imagine doing a sex tape and getting a whopping payment of $680, 000 is definitely a big deal.
Her marital status is intact but we are more worried about his son. Imagine growing up and learning that your mother received payments for selling sex tapes. It would be such a trauma for the poor kid.
Every kid wants to believe that their mother is the purest woman on earth and we just shudder to think the amount of mental strength the boy will have to show when he comes to know of the reality.
The most private acts of his mother are up for sale and that too with different men, no one of whom is his father.
Well, we have to wait to see how Kendra’s son chooses to deal with this but for now we think Kendra don’t need to worry even if her husband Hank gets dropped from team because this money will be enough for their survival for a long time.
No wonder Hanks is supporting his wife all the more now.

Kim Kardashian at 29 is not young/immature like a Kristen Stewart or a Dakota Fanning. Nor is she a dumb lass like a Paris Hilton. Being a celeb, she must be aware of the fact that loads of teenagers follow her and some even try to mimic her.
She is entitled to injecting her personal body with the venoms of botox and the likes, but, what was the point in blabbing about it. Though, she has slammed reports of having a nose job done, she has gone ahead with a proud assertion that she whole heartedly supports plastic surgery.
Speaking to E! Online, she declares, “I’m totally not against plastic surgery. I’ve tried Botox before.”
Of course, being a globally recognised socialite and reality television star, she is under immense scrutiny from the incessantly hounding hawk-eyed paparazzi. But, one on hand, where celeb hood bestows you with name, fame and dollars, it also shoulders you with some public responsibilities that celebs, in general, tend to brush off.
Since in this modern, sexed up age, even little girls are pushing the sexual boundaries, it’s important not to encourage or indirectly inspire them to play with their bodies. Kim’s open approval for botox may, eventually, provoke tonnes of teenagers to contemplate a plastic surgery.
So, Kim and other role models from all walks of life need to burden themselves with this one extra but extremely significant social responsibility of not openly speaking in support of any social evil.

The English actor, known for his trademark messy hair and performances in movies like ‘Twilight’ and ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’, has forgotten where he has parked his car in LA.
Pattinson made this admission in London, at the launch of his latest film ‘Remember Me’. I still have a cr*p car lost somewhere in LA because I don’t recall where I parked it,” the Telegraph quoted him as saying.
Apparently the 23 year old actor seems to have some or the other problems with cars. He had a freak accident with a car on the sets of Twilight and was hit by a Taxi cab in Manhattan while he was there for the shooting of ‘Remember Me.’
