The Worst Film Ever
... View MoreBest movie ever!
... View MoreThe movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
... View MoreStrong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
... View MoreOh wow no other formula available so take a story of how indians are treated badly in a racist manner in London The story seems too old now and the Londons are painted black and our Indians are full of heartAs in most Hindi films dealing with patriotism this too is similarSohail Khan again returns in an action mode after his failed debut in MDTD(2002) and a small appearance in DARNA MANA HAI(2003)he bangs up anybody and most London gorasIn between he gets chance to emote and romance tooThis is like a showreel to him afterall his 2nd home production(by know his most films are home productions) He doesn't even have a name in this film he is called IThe story follows the GHAYAL formula and reminds of GHAYAL in many scenes and is tad too predictable Direction by Puneet Sira(not Puneet Issar) is good in some portions Music is badSohail Khan is better in serious roles then his stupid comic roles however he is too wooden(though has improved a bit now in drama) and in emotional scenes he needs work The heroine is forgettable Khulbushan Kharbanda excels, Mona is too good Aasif Sheikh is good the Pakistani and the main villain are too theatrical
... View MoreI would preface my review by saying that out of the 3 stars that I rated this movie, 2 would be solely for being somewhat original. The unfortunate circumstance that plagues the Indian movie industry is that most movies thrown at the mainstream are, more often than not, copies (to varying degrees) of foreign (mostly Hollywood) movies. Having finished anything good that I had to say about this movie, let's continue with why this movie is bad.Firstly, the worst part of the movie was the end. It was terribly cheesy and melodramatic and extremely disappointing. It was especially disheartening that after 9/10ths of the movie tried to portray the contemporary problem of racism (though the authenticity of the manner in which they have portrayed it is questionable), the end is probably the furthest they could have taken you from providing a practical solution. This is unfortunately very typical of Bollywood, where melodramatic, half-baked stories are thrown to the masses with a veil of some sort of social activism / awakening, but very predictably ending in an anti-climax.Secondly, it provides a very uni-dimensional view of racism. It reminded me, amusingly, of old westerns where the good cowboys wore white hats and the bad ones wore black. This film suffers from a terribly oversimplified notion of racism. It's a little too black-and-white. (If you want to see a better movie about skinheads watch 'This is England' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0480025/).Thirdly, though the acting is not as atrocious as it could be, given the cast, it is definitely not anything notable. The lead actor as others have observed can be said to have improved from his earlier work, but has still a looooong way to go before he can be said to be a good actor.Fourthly, the camera work was also nothing great. One reviewer remarked that this movie was good because it had "No awkward pauses or abrupt scenes" - true, but is that really an achievement that one should credit a professional with?! Isn't that the basic minimum one should expect from a film-maker?! On the other hand, I wished that there was better camera work when they covered parts such as the graffiti on the walls, which proved to be quite unreadable.All in all, this film is quite shoddy, and makes a mess of an otherwise pertinent issue. I would say don't waste your time watching it.
... View MoreIt was deff a good movie. I was sad to see Aslam die.. he was so cute ! but deff a good movie. No awkward pauses or abrupt scenes. The songs.. i would say weren't too great. However the overall movie was great and sohil khan is deff a great actor. Hands down, he has improved a bunch and will continue to succeed. though the movie contains numerous new actors, never do you ever feel annoyed by their acting. everyones acting from sohils to the little kid amans are great. i would deff suggest this movie to anyone that is Indian and is unaware of the skinheads. hopefully the issue isn't as serious anymore and people are able to live peacefully. everyone should watch this movie
