review Lokesh ka hai ENJOY :meeno:

Starring: Hrithik Roshan, Katrina Kaif
Director: Sidharth Anand
Rating: 2 stars

Bang Bang in a line is Krrish sans the mask. Hrithik Roshan plays Rajveer, a trigger-happy thief who is on the run with the most precious diamond; Kohinoor. Unlike Krrish he doesn’t boast of a mask and a robe made of those black garbage bags but does all that a superdah is supposed to do - dodge bullets, defy gravity and mouth holier-than-thou dialogues like, ‘mere karan kisi begunah ki maut nahi hoti’. And this is when he has caused a dozen office going cars meet with fatal accidents as he dodges the police on the busy roads of Shimla. Mind you, they were not innocent people. Their biggest crime was that they came in Rajveer’s way. After all “Rajveer ke karan kisi begunah ki maut nahi hoti.” BOOM. SCREEEEECH! CRAAAAAAASH!

And then he meets a bank receptionist, Harleen (Katrina Kaif) who is more irritating than all the contestants of all the seasons of Bigg Boss put together. She has no more gumption than a grasshopper and nervously lands herself on a dating website. She meets Rajveer on a blind date to eventually get a Carpe Diem lecture from him- “seize the moment, live the day…blah blah blah blah…” Arey but that’s the same lecture she gave him in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. Copy with subtlety and different actors,baba.

So together they go to foreign countries minus passports or visas. Because in Hindi films we don’t need documents to travel. We just need dresses. That magically appear from nowhere. There are no suitcases but with invisible Manish Malhotras (Anaita Shroff Adajania in this case.)

So Rajveer and Harleen elude the police and land on an island. Why? Because Hrithik-Katrina have the hottest bodies in business and it’s a crime to hide them under unnecessary layers of Trench coats in Shimla. But before you can drool over their bare bodies, the location shifts to Prague. Oh ho, why Prague now? Because Imtiaz Ali had some unused footage fromRockstar that he had pitched to Sidharth Anand at a very cheap price. Expectedly the thief and the bank receptionist turn into Vogue models. They walk the cobbled streets, wear colourful clothes and pose prettily against a romantic number before they finally reach the climax.

Undoubtedly, the high-octane stunt scenes are par excellence but they are as pointless as Rajveer’s very badly photo-shopped family picture or the shameless Mountain Dew product placement.

Equally inane are Rajveer’s kissing and self-confidence tutorials to Harleen that are given either when the foreign police lurk around or on a high speeding bike! And if that wasn’t enough there is a daadi (shamelessly borrowed from Vicky Donor) who continues her broad-minded act. Her idea of being modern is to barge into the bathroom and watch her 20-something naked granddaughter take a shower. Err the last I checked it wasn’t called modern, it was spelled as – c-r-e-e-p-y!

Hrithik Roshan as Abbas Tyrewala (the dialogue writer of the film described in his Facebook post) can really seize a frame by the collar and quietly say, "I’m a God. Watch me, mortal.” True THAT, every word!

Katrina Kaif is either taking a shower or being drugged in the film. In between she is still speaking Hindi like it wasn’t a language but some sounds. But what can poor Harleen do? She was born in Canada you see. Again? Yes YET AGAIN! The question here is not when Katrina Kaif will ever learn Hindi. The question is who between Sonia Gandhi and Katrina Kaif, will nail the language first?

But it’s ok. The locations are exotic, the action is impeccable, the music is foot-tapping. And then there is a shirtless hero and a heroine in hotpants as bonus. Though it hurts to see such a colossal waste of both talent and money. It’s appalling to see how names like Abbas-jaadu-ki-jhappi-Tyrewala (dialogues), Sujoy-Kahaani-Ghosh(screenplay) and Sidharth-Hum-Tum-Anand(director) can go so wrong. Wish they had used more logic than bullets to create the real ‘bang bang’.

:rotfl:

What a funny funny write-up.

What’s the source ?

Re: Bang Bang!!

Not interested. I'd rather watch Haider! That one looks amazing.

Re: Bang Bang!!

With Faiz/Mehdi ghazal cover 'Gulon main rung'.

Re: Bang Bang!!

I had seen original movie Knight and Day.. and this is Indian version... I am not interested.

Re: Bang Bang!!

^ Yup seen it too. And I'm sure this one is just a bad copy like all other copies. Knight and day was still watchable and somewhat entertaining.

Re: Bang Bang!!

releasing in uk today.

i think from promos it was pretty evident that it will have senseless story (just like knight and day)...i read the film had a great opening and its due to hritikh and kats pair, hot quotient, dances and glamour.

Re: Bang Bang!!

Watched Haider yesterday, highly highly recommended!!

Re: Bang Bang!!

Bad guys in the movie had names after Pakistani public figure? Is it just me or a coincidence?

Hamid Gul
Shoaib
Saqlain
Wasim

How did the write - up escape the editorial scissors? Tauba, tauba

Re: Bang Bang!!

I was wondering how it would have been if Tom cruise is made to dance like Hritik and Cameron Diaz is made to romance like Katrina :)

Re: Bang Bang!!

:smack:

Re: Bang Bang!!

Saw bang bang yesterday, its ok film to watch once. Katrina is too botoxy and expressionless. But man, hritik has seriously toned body and his fashion designer is also doing a great job.

If you thought it was a copy of Knight and day then you were right.

Re: Bang Bang!!

last knight was this movie I watched all night long and could not tell was?

Re: Bang Bang!!

Body ho to Hritik kesi warna na ho

the guy is amazing
