B+B - High on hype , low on substance



I saw "Bunty aur Babli" this sunday after reading the amazing reviews that it was getting. All i can say either the critics don't have a clue or they are taking money from the producer's.After all the hype the movie turns out to be a total let down. There is no story , no presentation and music is very average at best. The acting by the leading pair is pretty good but it can only carry a movie so far which lacks the basic foundation of a good script.

dont agree with u a lot....
altho this is not a brilliant movie, its fairly entertaining... abhishek is really showing himself to be a really good actor, Rani is top class as always, Amitabh is.... well ... Amitabh! the gags were good, altho they shud have had a lot more of them... the Taj Mahal scene was pulled off really well... Some of the songs are quite hummable too... I'd rate this 3.5 stars out of 5.
CheerZ!

kindly watch some more hindi films, discuss them and develop some taste, is all my advice to you. also if want to do some reality check go, stand outside theatre and ask the audience coming from theatre what they think about it (atleast 15 of them) i am sure you will be shocked.thanks

i think i've seen a lot more films than you, so kindly refrain from getting personal.

I thought it was hilarious, just pure entertainment!

I agree!
It was hiliarious. I went to have a good time and did! The jokes were funny, Abishek was looking great aswell as Rani. It did drag a few scenes though, the Aishwarya dance number was crap, cant beat Shushmeta's "Mast Mahol"
It was a great movie guys if your looking to escape from the big bad world...

Hahahahah! Nice one!

"Ek woh jo bakwas picture ko bhe enjoy kartay hai"

BUT then, where does it take us?...towards tonnes of more "bakwas" films!!.. cuz the producers know that there is a big market for crap so why put effort to make quality...huh?...I guess with this line of thought, we simply perpetuate mediocrity.

Well BnB is an enjoyable movie.The script is definitely not a greawt one but the screenplay is just awesome. Guys who are saying about developing a taste about movie watching shud do a reality check first on themselves.You guys are talking about talking to people who coem out of the theatres...man this is that time of indian film industry when Movies liek KKHH n Zeher are making profits how can you expect people appreciating good taste humor of BnB.

I totally agree with you, and I think people should lighten up and enjoy it. I think it was very well done, and bucketloads more interesting than the stuff Hollywood churns out. Viva Bollywood!!

It's a kid's movie.
