this is the worst movie i have ever seen in my life.


Seen this in the cinema on Saturday, I was thinking that it will be good because it was so hyped up, but it was the complete opposite. This movie has no PLOT, acting was terrible, songs, or should I say SONG was sh it. They kept on playing the title song over and over as though they have no songs which they didn't. They just used Big B to bring in the audience. The whole "story" didn't make sense.
I gave it 1 out of 10 but it doesn't deserve 1, it should get a 0.
what was with the mr and miss southall thing in the end? that was just added in to give the movie a song. because of the movie title. doesn't make sense anywho.
I have foreign friends who watch Bollywood films, if I show them this they will hate Bollywood forever! the diana and dodi joke was in bad taste. very bad. none of the jokes were funny at all.

Definately one of the stupidest movies ever made in the history of Bollywood cinema.

This movie was really really pathetic..

The last time I remember being through such torture was Jaani Dushman.

It seemed like I was getting stabbed with a needle every 5 minutes. God help me.. I need some Panadol now!!

reply

heh heh, thank Zeus I'm not the only one!

What a chore it was to sit through, if I'd been alone I would have left!

I went to watch wid at da cinema and it was a total torture. I wanted to scream!

All the characters were so damn irritating. Preity Zinta is ma fave actress but she was way too bad in dis movie. And Big B- looked like a total idiot!!! Pathetic!!

Atleast da songs were foot-tapping =)

I disagree. I almost didn't see this movie because of all of the bad reviews, but I finally got around to it and was glad I did.I've seen some really awful hindi films (har dil jo pyar karega, hum tumhare hai sanam, dhoom 2) and I thought that this movie was fantastic.It was entertaining the whole way through and I did not feel the length of it at all like you do with some movies. I love Amitabh Bachchan and Tabu and so I saw Cheeni Kum recently because it got pretty good reviews but that movie was so slow and very boring at times, the character of and end situation involving Sexy were ridiculous. With JBJ there was never a dull moment.

Clearly this isn't the genre of intelligent/witty dialogue so why even expect a script any different than this? There are some super popular films that have terrible (super cheesy and cliche) dialogue (almost everything of karan johar), much worse than JBJ and everyone loves those films.
I also wanted to address this alleged "diana dodi" joke. everyone is writing about how offensive it was when in my perspective it wasn't a joke at all, they were just unnecessarily mentioned/incorporated in the story. but then again, i'm not a hindi speaker so perhaps something was lost in the sub-titles.
I'm mexican-american and I took a Chilean and Filipino friend to see this with me and they both loved it.
We didn't go in expecting much but were pleasantly surprised at the level of entertainment and the extravagant production values which unlike many hindi films, looked like it came from 2007 rather than 1992. I give it a 10 because it was thoroughly entertaining.

This movie should be in film school as a lesson for kids going into filmmaking.

Wow.. that was *insightful*. I simply saw the hindi version without subs. I guess I need to go watch the movie again with the subs on, maybe.. just maybe it wont suck soo hard. jackvela9411, I'd recommend watching some decent hindi movies. Then, come back and watch this utterly abysmal hunk of doggy poop. For now, go watch chak de. Will give u ur next assignment after u finish this.

reply

I wasn't saying that JBJ was a masterpiece, I was just saying that it was super entertaining and actually a lot better than the trash out there that people love.

I've already seen Chak de India and I thought it was good. I didn't think it was as exciting as it could have been or as amazing as everyone else thought.
It followed the same format and cliches of all other sports movies about underdog teams. that's not to say i didn't like it though. it was nice to see srk try something different for a change.

i usually don't share the same opinions as the majority when it comes to hindi films. i thought heyy babyy was the biggest piece of trash i've ever seen,i hated koi mil gaya, and while i will admit that ddlj is an entertaining film, i don't think it's a masterpiece by any means.
I have seen over 130 hindi films over the span of a year and a half (yes, i have too much free time), the films have ranged from oldies, to mainstream masala, to offbeat art films.
I will be interested to hear your next suggestion.

I totally agree with you. It was totally entertaining and overall a cute romantic story. The music plays a great part to the movie as well.
=D

reply

dude are u kidding me, and it got a 4.2 on imdb, great!!! read the comments here and u'll just drop with a shock.

well, i went to watch this utter crap and i just fell asleep by the interval.....which has never happened to me be4.
but, i watched it once on t.v. as there was nothing else on, and i must say that i'll rather get kicked in the nuts once than go through this again............it was just so cheezyyy..... i mean how can anyone like this??????????

I rarely ever like desi movies and I thought the first half of the movie (train station) was pretty well done; unpredictable and very "hatke" (kind of like Jab we met). The second half was a typical Bollywood masala, boring and utterly predictable. Remember, this is a romantic comedy. Give me a break about bad taste and all; ever seen how desis are portrayed in Hollywood movies? Ever watched the Seinfeld episode about Gandhi? This is a comedy, Diana/Dodi are fair game...Check out most Hollywood movies in the last decade and you will find that a very large majority of them show desis as terrorists or nerds.

i found this movie entertaining....i also found bunty aur babli entertaining. In fact, compared to the dross delivered by hollywood on a regular basis, i would rather watch a bad bollywood offering, to the latest hollywood blockbuster release any day!
due to my isolated circumstances, i buy bollywood movies through ebay, generally before i've had a chance to view them. i just get to check out the write-ups here and make my choice based on the opinions i read. i bought this film as a double feature, along with 'One, Two, Three' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1176960/ which is funny in parts, but mostly incredibly silly, noisy and i consider it to be the most inferior bollywood film i have watched so far.
however, i not only enjoyed jbj, but i've watched it several times, and frequently find myself humming and dancing to the title tune :-)
