Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
... View MoreInstead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

... View MoreLets start off with the cast. Salman Khan is great as usual, and nothing more needs to be said about him. Dia Mirza is good in her role as is Sushmita Sen. Sharat Saxena and Rajpal Yadav are also good. It has something for everyone: romance (a lot), action ( a lot), humour (some) and good music. The story is great and is complemented by great action. The music is fabulous. Clearly, Sajid-Wajid have done a good job. The tracks 'Bindiya chamke','Mehndi hai lagi' and 'Yeh bekhudi'are the ones that stand out. The cinematography's good and so is the editing. Definitely Pankaj Parashar's best movie.Verdict: A must watch. I give it 9.5/10
... View MoreThe movie reminds me of a delicacy with a surprise element(and then what are thrillers for). This is one movie which keeps you engaged with its comical and romantic moments right from the start and puts you entirely at ease in the first half. For those who would be expecting a run of the mill romantic movie, avoid the second half and watch the end. For those who came expecting an action movie as the reviews may have it, the first half is boring and apparently pointless. But the suspense builds up slowly without crying out loud. And all elements in the first half are woven pretty well for the "two halves" to create a decent whole. What I found eye-catching was the way the two elements in the movie were combined. Arguably one of the better Indian movies.
... View MoreI won't comment much on the film except to say that it wasn't terrible but there was some obvious flaws and questionable acting in certain moments. However, I absolutely have to say that I still think the music in this movie was some of the best of recent years. A few of the songs were absolutely beautiful, hummable, and melodious and the album stands up as one of the best of the earlier 'noughties'. Unfortunately i think the film reception overshadowed what was arguably some great, great music which i still listen to now more than 5 years on!!!My rating of 9 is not for the movie but as you guessed it the gorgeous tunes. Definitely check out Yeh Bekhudi Deewangi, which was my favourite track!
