Movie reviews:(Kung fu panda 2 and Pirates of Caribbean)

Two of the much awaited sequels,Kung Fu Panda 2 and Pirates of the Caribbean 4, were both released last month.I was extremely excitted about both.I found Kung Fu Panda 2 better than the original one,it was simply hilarious,not a moment of boredom,the concept was unique,the jokes were different than the original one.The reviews of the Kung Fu panda 2 were great.People seemed to enjoy it as much i did.Though alot said it really scared their children because there was alot more violence in the second part.

"My 11 yr old really liked the movie, however my 6 year was pretty scared,"said vahsing a parent of two children.

"My kids and I just saw this movie yesterday in 3D. It is wonderful!!,"said Paratrooper a parent of a 7 and 5 year old.

Most viewers objected to violence and the concept of adoption.I wanted to see Pirates of Caribbean 4 but my sister told me it wasnt good.Though the reviews i just saw are mixed:

"Depp, grimacing, edges in and out of the action and seems irrelevant and bored most of the time,"said one of the viewers

"Pirates 4 a worthy adventure,"said another.

On the basis that the Pirates of the Carribean 4 seemed to have more bad reviews than Kung Fu Panda 2 one can conclude that Kung Fu Panda 2 is better than Pirates of the Carribean 4.Kung Fu Panda 2 offers fun,comedy,laughter while Pirates Of the Carribean sounds gloomy,dark and scary.I would recommend you all to see Kung Fu Panda 2.

CAVE(RESTAURANT)

A restaurant in islamabad was recommended again again to me by my sister.According to her they had the most amazing steaks EVER.So one day me and my brother decided to check it out.It is located in the east side of islamabad in pakistan.It looks like a cave too,the menu is different and has alot of variety.The service is excellent.Another thing that i would suggest for u to do is to have CHICKEN steaks not the beef ones.Cave is also more on the expensive side but they also give student discounts and on certain days and timings one could get special discounts.

 It is a restaurant where one could bring their friends,or family,or their spouses.Though the dimly lit candles and soft music give more of a romantic feeling.The environment is awesome and the service is commendable and dont forget to try the super nachos as appetizers.i would give this restaurant four n half stars simply because i loved its EVERYTHING.

How Osama`s death was taken in Pakistan

While i was in Pakistan Osamas death took place.Though he died in Pakistan nobody in Pakistan really took this piece of news seriously probably because they never really believed he died and how can one be sure that Osama really was killed when the American Government didnt give any proof of his death,one question that rises again and again in my mind is that why didnt they show his body?.This question really puts a seed of doubt in ones mind.So pretty much everybody took this as everyday news and moved on with their lives.

Weddings of Pakistan

Traditional weddings of Pakistan have altogther four functions but its not an obligation to have all four functions one could either have more or less.Lets start with Maiyoon.Maiyoon is a small family function,you invite all your close relatives and friends.The bride has to wear a yellow dress and a long braid.Basically in maiyoon all relatives dance and party.The next function is mehndi,some people have two mehndis,one from the guys side and one is from the girls side but many just have a combined mehndi.Mehndi is other name for henna,and on this function the bride puts henna one her hands.mehndi is also one of the favorite function among many people because all the dances are done on this day,and everybody has to join in the dance.Baraat comes next.Barat is the main function, that is when the bride and groom get married.A Moula asks the girl three times if she would marry the guy and on her approval the moula gets her signature and the same is done with the guy.Atfer this is completed all the relatives give the couple congrats and take pictures.The last function is Walima.This is organised by the guys family and basically its the time when everyone gives the couple their blessings and wishes them a bright future.Though pakistani weddings are long and exhausting,they have their own charm and guarantee full time entertainment
