Ten things I learned after watching Tashan


Well, Yeah I did like the movie...

Expect it to be comedy and you'll also...

But... There are quite a few things I learned from the movie:

1. Gravity does not effect Akshay Kumar

2. Villains speak half Hindi- Half English all the time, even while dying.

3. If you have an infatuation for someone when you are a kid, do not fall for anyone else later - she will return as a bombshell.

4. Villains keep hi-tech speedboats in their Den just to ensure that the hero would use it some day to navigate through the dirty-water trench dug outside.

5. If a grenade is thrown inside a closed room and it blows up in a ball of fire, shattering all the windows - It will NEVER kill a single soul inside. Specially if they are on a fuel-laden car, which is generally considered to be highly inflammable.

6. Even though the hero has never fired a gun in his life, when he starts doing it he has a aim better than the most hardened criminals and can kill multiple people with one shot. He can even do a somersault on a speedboat and still manage to shoot everyone around.

7. Indian villains keep Chinese martial artists, dressed in their full martial art gears, to combat his enemies.

8. People working at call centers can easily switch between an incoming call and a private call on the same phone, then throw the headset down and run outside.

9. Neo of Matrix was taught his deadly movement by the great Bachchan Pandey.

10. The villain, when being defeated by his enemies, rides a rickshaw to escape.


I can probably go on and on.... but I will leave the rest up to you to write.

You just revealed Mr. McLovin!

reply

lol... good work, man! Haven't watched it yet, and don't plan on watching it either. I just sense how these bollywood flicks, that get over the top publicity, turn out be really really bad. [ Race is a recent example, I don't know about others, But I think the film was CRAP] They try and copy hollywood, lose the Indian element, forget that the people actually potrayed in the film ARE Indian. And don't even get me started on the idiotic action scenes, stupid unscientific logics they show these days. Damn!

I love James Marsden wiff a burning passion

1. Someone at Yashraj really really likes Jek-skis. A bit too much.

2. Even ninjas aren't a match for Akki.

3. Rikshaw chases are the new car chases.

4. Talking to camera makes Saif Ali Khan look retarded.

5. A moustache is not a good look for him.

6. A guy can be enamoured with some girl yet not recognize her after just a few years.

7. When you give your assistant a lot of control over your finances remember to be nicer to her.

8. Jet-skis are the future of transportation. They can go over water, under-water, fly through the air, and they are always available at villains' hideouts.

Don't forget *Saif's character somehow had acess to the train that carried thousand of pounds which belonged to our villians.

This is YOUR LIFE and it is ending one minute at a time!

Okay, so did anyone else have the feeling that this was intended to be a parody of silly action movies that ignore such petty things as the laws of physics?

I could be totally wrong on this, but I went into the film with the idea that it was trying to be ridiculous in the stunt department with some comedy bits and big boomy songs thrown in between. Approaching the film from this angle, I was certainly not let down.

I expected it to be goofy, and it was.


So I kind of liked it.


Is it just me?

reply

I agree with you . Tashan is the grindhouse of Hindi Masala cinema. In my opinion it was intentionally goofy and i loved it.
