Whoa buddy! Where do I start with this movie?Ok let me be positve and start off with the good things about the movie. It stars Sharukh Khan and I think that's the end of the positives.
This movie was seriously bad. I'm not really familiar with red chillies so I can't really compare this to their other works, all I can do is go off of this movie and I must say that if all their other movies are like this then I'm not looking forward to upcoming films.
The dancing, acting, story, music, just everything was painfully bad and it wasn't one of the movies where you watched the whole thing and afterwards you say to your friend "hey, Nisha yeah I didn't really like it". No, it's one of those movies where you say "oh my god Nisha! I'm 20 minutes in and I want to gouge my own eyes out of my head!"
I truly wish I could I unhear that stupid song that had the words "booty shake, booty shake" in the chorus. They tried to be clever and reference a few of Khan's more famous works. "My name is Khan" and "Dilwale Dulhania le jenge" make scene cameos throughout the film but instead of making me feel all cutesy and laugh with recognition. It made me smack myself in the face and say "I can't believe they just did that!?"
So I suffer through the whole movie hoping that it will have some glimmer of hope of getting better but it only gets worst and I'm thinking to myself "how is that even possible? How can it get worst?" Enter epic fight scene from the book of absurdity. Khan gets his ass handed to him by the giant brute of a guy who uses his head to smash the carefully lined up food stalls that are surrounding their carefully constructed fight circle. I just can't like it. I tried really hard because I'm a big Sharukh fan but all I could think was "why Sharukh?? Why?"
So please don't put this in your queue. Actually steer clear of it if you see it. It might rub off on better movies. Oh and wtf was with the little person in the forest??!'
