\nPlace: Hong Kong
\nStory: A reforming ex-gangster tries to reconcile with his estranged policeman brother, but the ties to his former gang are difficult to break.
\nAbout: Serial remake hack, Sanjay Gupta, started off by adapting John Woo\u2019s ultra-stylish Hong Kong action flick. The plot minus the romantic tangent is pretty much the same while many of the other scenes are picked up shot for shot. To add to the mix, Gupta also adds scenes from Scarface, Lethal Weapon 3 and much of the background score from The Terminator 2.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nStory: A person arriving from abroad is handed a cell phone as soon he steps out of the airport. He\u2019s informed that unless he participates in an act of terrorism, his entire family will be killed
\nAbout: I thought both movies were pretty evenly matched, featured great turns by the main protagonists, maintained a high level of tension throughout and were tightly paced. Though Aamir does at times pander to many clich\u00e9s associated with Muslims in India.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>
\nPlace: South Korea
\nStory: Desperate loner starts dating a hot girl, who is way too crazy for him to handle, turning his life upside down.
\nAbout: Never much understood the love for the South Korean original and absolutely despised the Indian remake. Other than adding the usual Indian kitsch of songs and melodrama, the movie\u2019s plot remains quite faithful to the original.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>
\nPlace: South Korea
\nStory: A man is locked up in a hotel room for many years, without ever being told why or by whom and then one day suddenly released. Now in less than a week he has to find out the why and whom to reclaim his former life.
\nAbout: Sanjay Gupta ran amok yet again with a South East Asian classic, resulting in stylish yet highly watered down remake. In the original, the man is locked up for 15 years and has five days to find his captor upon release, in the Indian remake, he\u2019s locked up for 14 years and has four days to find his captors. These are the minor changes made in the remake which otherwise borrows liberally scenes, shot-to-shot recreations of the original. Of course being India, they had to side-step the incest angle and shoe-horned in a flesh trade element.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>
\nPlace: Philippines
\nStory: Seeking a brighter future, a poor villager and his family flee their impoverished life and head to the bustling lights of the metropolis. But the sweltering city\u2019s bustling intensity quickly overwhelms them, and they fall prey to the rampant manipulations of its hardened locals. The villager catches a lucky break when he\u2019s offered steady work for an armoured truck company. Soon, though, the reality of his new life forces him to confront the perils he has put before in his family.
\nAbout: Though both movies have almost identical plots and very strong actors in the central roles, Metro Manila is a way grittier and moving experience. City lights at times gets caught up in melodrama overkill and the background score can\u2019t keep things subtle. Even the ending of Metro Manila has a far more poetic quality to it than the emotion heavy sledgehammer style of City lights.<\/p>\n

\nPlace: Hong Kong
\nStory: A girl who\u2019s been blind since a young age receives corneal transplants and hopes to lead a normal life. However post the surgery, she starts seeing ghosts and having visions of impending tragedies.
\nAbout: The Pang brother\u2019s original was an effective but not great horror movie and though Naina doesn\u2019t quite measure up to the original, it\u2019s still one of the better Indian horror films. Though they had to add a solar eclipse in the plot, didn\u2019t they, thought it would resonate with Indian audiences.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>
\nPlace: South Korea
\nStory: A former cop now must track down an unnaturally shrewd and calm serial killer who\u2019s been bumping off prostitutes.
\nAbout: The Indian remake had a terrific performance from Prashant Narayanan as the serial killer and they even made him a cross dresser which added an unneeded characteristic to the role. Since it was made by the Bhatt\u2019s, the movie was more of an erotic thriller than a straight forward one like the original movie.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>
\nPlace: Japan
\nStory: A romantic drama spanning twenty years chronicling the life of a deaf-mute couple.
\nAbout: Gulzar\u2019s heart wrenching movie had its origins in this Japanese movie which he had watched during an international film festival. The major difference in plot being that in the Japanese movie, the female protagonist is widow of war, when the movie starts out. From then on much of the plot is the same, including an evil brother, the death of the first child and the helpful mother. Little can take away from Gulzar\u2019s masterpiece but the Japanese one is just as good equally if not more.<\/p>\n

\nPlace of Origin: Hong Kong
\nStory: A bunch of criminals plan to rob a bank, but one of them is an undercover cop.
\nAbout: Sanjay Gupta has been pretty candid about being \u201cinspired\u201d from Quentin Tarantino\u2019s \u2018Reservoir Dogs\u2019 but he has also often quoted being influenced by the Hong Kong thriller \u2018City on Fire\u2019 (which was the source of Tarantino\u2019s movie\u2019s inspiration). And he does indeed pick up more than his share of scene from the Chow Yun Fat classic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
