Movie Review: Basic

Wednesday · 13 Sep 06 · 02:43 AM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: Movies

Sometime back, I watched the John Travolta/Samuel L. Jackson thriller Basic on DVD.  A review I later read described the movie as having "all twists and no plot", and I was actually inclined to agree.

However, I was chatting with my friend Kamal a few days ago, and he had a lot of praise for the movie.  So I decided to watch the movie again, and things were definitely better the second time around.  I've added a review for the movie.  Check it out and add your comments.

Another cool thing to note: A couple of days back I added a simple redirect for the movie review pages.  The current movie review URLs are different from those used in the previous version of this site — this meant that the "external review" links I posted at the IMDb for certain movies would be broken.  Well, now if an old URL is used, the right page is automatically loaded, instead of giving you a 404 error.
