Krrish was FUN. The beginning was way too long (like, by the time he picked up a mask, I'd forgotten that that was where the film was heading), but once it got there, whee! Singing dancing superhero! Aliens! Supercomputers!
Priyanka Chopra playing The Girl didn't really get a chance to show off any acting chops beyond Looking Cute And Occasionally Surprised At Things, but she is very, very pretty. With fantastic hair.
Chopra’s name appears as "in negotiations" for the Wonder Woman lead on the Internet Movie Database.
Doesn't this mean, like, nothing? Because anyone could have entered the info?
They do more checking than they used to do, but that's admittedly no guarantee.

I just channel surfed onto Torque during the big motorcycle chase/fight scenes. I've seen Roadrunner cartoons that broke fewer laws of physics.
Saw Superman Returns with the girlfriend on Saturday and enjoyed it muchly. There were some plotholes and some minor things that bugged, but overall it was good stuff.
I adore the PVP "review". [link]
Saw
Superman Returns,
and it wasn't my movie. I thought the action scenes rocked, as long as you did the requisite ignoration of structural integrity limitations (though I did wince whenever he
lifted people, because that's GOTTA hurt--especially the lifting of the whole family by one
arm). It's the acting scenes that I couldn't get into. I just think Routh looked either like a dork or truly disturbing. I've never bought anything James Marsden was trying to sell me. Bosworth came off the best, but it's not a big best. If the kid was trying to be Omen creepy, then he out-acted them all. I just wasn't sure that's where they were going. Although it would
make him a chip off the old block--Supes was creepier than Batman
there.
I agree that Routh was disturbing-looking, but it somehow worked for me. It played off the alien thing very well.
I wasn't thinking alien so much as WB.
Also--I was thinking about the dual persona thing as portrayed in this movie...you could come away with the impression that he's
the suit, since putting on the glasses didn't seem to make it look like he was ACTING the dork. He just was.

This, for me. I really wasn't expecting to like him at all, but somehow his performance really worked for me. The scene
in the Planet offices when his glasses fall off and he stares at Lois for a moment...wow. Total gut-punch moment there.
Quickly followed, of course, by a moment
where I wondered where all of his suits came from, and if the janitor ever complained about constantly having to clean them off the bottom of the elevator shaft.
Ha! I had your second thought as well, Jess.
