Eraser (1996) review and rememberances of Mayfare Cinema Lucknow


I saw Eraser with Dada at Mayfare Cinema.Since then it has closed down but remain alive in Lucknowites memory as the most nicest Cinema,really classy.When you stroll along its corridor you see beautiful Pictures of Hollywood and Indian stars including Elvis Presley.It had relatively smaller screen compared to adjacent Basant Cinema which too closed down soon after..Mayfare's sound system was really good.It had no Balcony but instead the back seats were boxed of labeling them as Balcony.Ticket checkers were quite no nonsense type hooligans were made to behave contrary to other halls which were not very strict about audience's unruly behaviour.The first movie I saw their was "Hum se hai Muqabla" dubbed version of Kadhalan (1994) *ind Nagma,Girish Karnad and Prabhu Deva.The last movie I saw their was Star Wars.


I remember when I saw Eraser I was completely blown away by it.It was so thrilling and such pulsating action absolutely fabulous.


Recently I again saw it one month after seeing Desperate Housewives 7 th Season which starred Vanessa Williams too.Now I had completely forgotten she was their in Eraser.Found her extremely beautiful their,quite elegant with beautiful mesmerizing eyes.Her role too was quite strong in fact the  whole movie revolved around her.Movie also starred Oscar winning veteran actor James Coburn.
Arnold Schwarzenegger was really mind blowing here.Love this movie don't remember any movie that comes close to it where the story is concerned or charismatic on screen presence or pure entertainment value,best action flick.
