Woke up at 7 today. Have lost the ability to sleep beyond that. Washed all the "Essentials" after a perfectly Horrid Breakfast, before settling down with WOT. With the current gone, I couldn't do WOT for more than an hour before dozing off. ?

Went to Enigma again, this time with Rajesh! That has to be the worst pub ever! Loud music and uncomfortable Seats full of the I-am-a-straight-out-of-college-Software-Engineer crowd, and not a single female! Just bloody Outstanding wasn't it?

After a sumptuous dinner at Ponnusamy, Rajesh, Thairu and I reached Forum. The agenda?The Perfect Stranger Starring Halle Berry's Boobs. Seriously! Hell, We all know Berry's gorgeous, but do we have to focus every single frame on her yummy bod? Talk about too much of a good thing! Oh, apart from Halle's boobs, the movie also has Bruce Willis sleep-walking through the role of a promiscuous husband and the typical tough as nails Head Honcho of an Ad firm that has a very original name- H2A(His name is Harrison Hill in the Movie). Now, why a very successful business man would enter chat rooms to pick up girs when there are girls all around the place willing to drop his pants for him is beyond me! Anyways, there is also this clingy Best friend of Ro's, played by Giovanni Ribsi (Please let this guy play a sane man for once!) who is insanely(quite literally, trust me) in love with her.

So much for the characters. Now for the story, Rowena is this hard hitting reporter who specializes at exposing celebrities who gets mighty pissed of after being blown off a story by a well greased editorial board! Her childhood friend Grace, accosts her and tells her about this affair she was having with the 'Harrison Hilll' before she was shown the cold shoulder. Ro reluctantly takes the transcripts of the e-mail conversations between Grace and Hill. The next day she receives a frantic call from Grace's mom saying that she recieved a call from the police or whoever that a body was found that could be her daughter's. We all know what's going to happen next, right? Yes, the Best friend is obsessed with Ro, yes, the best friend slept with Grace, yes he did take pictures of them having sex, yes, Ro, joins Hil's company and tries to seduce him, yes, she also chats with him on the net. Nothing avante garde about this movie so far, eh? you wont be surprised with the rest of the movie either! Ho Hum!!! Been there Seen that!!!!

For those droolers out there, there is life after that topless scene in Swordfish!! You guys should check out Halle in that gorgeous red dress. HOT!!!!!! Though acting was uniformly fair(we are not exactly clamouring for an Oscar for Halle) Bruce Willis was paricularly bad. Brutally Stone Faced, he brings new lows to this already very Cliched, One diamensional character. Who knows we may never ever get to see this guy Act!!!!!! While Giovanni was adequate, we get this feeling that he has done all this before. I know I have said this before, but, why does he have to play a retard or a Psychopath in every bloody Movie?

So my verdict? Dont waste money on this.... go buy a pirated DVD!!!!
