Movie Discussion Thread

[shekdown]

 

The First 2 bolded parts clearly shows that u hate srk and his acts thus reading your whole review is pointless cause as an SRK hater u will only bash the movie.Therefore the credibility of the review goes well down only there.But still if u read the review then

 

You sound like an absolute cry baby. Man up little girl. All reviewers have opinions, likes and dislikes. They dont let it affect their review. And like Ive said before. I more or less give my reviews straight up, football or movies or music. I hate Man Utd, but Ill praise them when they deserve it. I hate Tom Cruise but Ill give him credit for being a hard-worker. I hate Shah Rukh Khan but like Ive acknowledged, both in my post and before, that he is an entertainer and has delivered entertainment films like few others in Hindi cinema.

 

3rd bolded part,its not explained entirely but still at the start the of the film(shahana goswami) has explained some thing to relate to the ra one coming out of the game.

 

She attempted to explain something but done very poorly. Plus this is the kind of stuff that needs to be explained fully.

If G.One is revived again in the end, then so should Ra.One, which begs to question the point of the game. If Ra.One cant get back to the real world that obviously means that he isnt in the game either, right? So what happens. People who buy the game cant play it anymore?

You cant expect people not to be skeptical about plot holes in the crucial areas of the film. It should be explained holistically.

 

4th bolded part,u write 70 mins of BS and in the 5th bolded part u write excellent VFX of the film.In the 2nd half VFX takes the front seat in the film and if u think the 2nd half is BS then how did u like the VFX whereas the 2nd half is filled with great VFX.

 

Hold on. I praised the VFX that its good. That doesnt necessarily make the 2nd half good. If you enjoyed the 2nd half because of VFX, you might as well dangle a bunch of shiny keys in front of you for 70 mins. That would keep you equally entertained. No. Unfortunately, there is a story, there are characters, dialogues and also VFX. VFX is merely a part of the movie. Not the movie itself.

 

I dont want to go into the details of VFX, but in short, VFX should be used to tell a story, a story should not be used to showcase VFX. Ra.One has excellent VFX but fails to deliver on a solid plot, dialogue or intensity.

 

Last bolded part u have compared it with Harry Potter whos budget is way way way more than ra one so comparing them is absolute foolishness.

 

No, you misunderstand in your SRK support driven rage. It is advertised on so many levels to portray itself as more than just a movie. When really its just like Kal Ho Naho or Krissh or ZNMD or Crank or Oceans 11 or any other movie. It comes and goes. The way they are marketing it is like its an entire new world for the audience to enter, like Middle Earth or Hogwarts.

Last thing who the hell lets u write review for gods sake U have no credibility to write a review but if some one reads ur review he will only be mis-leaded rather than any thing else.

 

So stop writing please for gods sake.Do u even read what BS u post

 

First thing, who the hell made you a judge for people writing reviews? This is not the first review, Ive written, my fanatic friend or should I say 'Khan'atic friend. No, Ive written a fair few which are regarded as very well written and a very good description of what to expect and what it actually is. And the very same Ra.One review which I posted here has been liked by a lot of people and agreed with in terms of the view shared.

 

Ofcourse, you neednt alone have to go by just my review. A lot of reviews share the same view as I do. Needless to say, you've attempted to rubbish those reviews as awful as well. And surprisingly, you did all of that before even watching the film. Why do you think Id take your views seriously then?

[shekdown]

@shekdown, is it true that south indians are depicted very badly or rather crassly in the movie ? Saw a comment on fb like that.

 

They've been depicted badly, yes. But after watching the movie I can tell that it was an innocent mistake and not one meant to be derogatory. It just shows a thorough lack of research and effort put into the character. It was done to try and get a few cheap laughs in terms of accent and culture. It wasnt well received in my cinema hall and judging by lot of reviews, most people arent fond of it. But it was not a vicious attempt or anything of that sort.

Repped just for that.

Dude just read the first para of your review again and see how negative have u started.Thats not how reviews are written.There was no reference to the movie just negative it was,

even i said it should have been explained a bit more.

U r right,VFX shoudnt be the one leading the story.But how can u enjoy something and then call it Plain BS when the thing that u enjoyed was almost everywhere.So this just doesnt make sense.

U have yourself to blame on this one,how can u even think like that and compare it to Holly Biggies when there is clearly shortage of money compared to what goes in the Holly Movie.U wrote your review in consideration of that.U made false imaginations is not my fault.Also the trailers,it was clear what the story was and how it would pan out.

But your review is totally pointless.It doesnt cover anything up.From point 1 to Last u have only criticized where there wasnt that much too.And i did not even claim anything before seeing the movie,the only review which i commented on was that gave no star to the film which is impossible.

[hope]

Now this is plain BS.Just by speaking an accent and showing eating habbits makes you think that SRK has hurt you then god bless you

 

BTW i would really like to read ur other reviews and see how u wrote in them and rated them cause this RAOne review is just not acceptable.

[shekdown]

Dude, stop copy pasting my entire post. Im having a hard time identifying what your comments are.

[Death Stryke]

 

@Shek

 

Y u bother?

[hope]

Dude, stop copy pasting my entire post. Im having a hard time identifying what your comments are.

thats why i bolded it,if u find it hard to read after that also then

[silentassassin]

 

Can we move on...Enough of this Ra One

 

Also whats with the big posts ??U really expect people to go through them ?

[CM Sunny]

There is a huuuuuuge difference between Chuck Norris & Rakhi Sawant,

Mode correct the custom title pileej

I think Ive summed up what the story is in what Ive written. Its straight-forward enough.

 

Visual Effects = Excellent; everything else = Crap. Is that so hard to understand?

 

I am not comparing it in terms of budget. Im comparing it in terms of the setting. Even Star Wars or Batman Begins or Thor.

 

If my review if pointless why do you take so much time and effort to try and point out its wrong. Besides, I cant understand your animosity to people's views. A lot of people dont like the movie, they've given it bad reviews. Were their reviews pointless also?

 

Now this is plain BS.Just by speaking an accent and showing eating habbits makes you think that SRK has hurt you then god bless you

Are you dyslexic?

Point taken.

[Sufyan]

Even though i am sick of the Ra.One discussion,couldn't resist posting this

The foreign press seem to have loved it

[dante77]

saw few movies last week, forgot to post impressions

 

 

Super 8 - Its an ok movie with a very bad ending. Not bad but not really worth watch either. VFX job is well done but they are very less. I had high hopes especially since there was a lot of talk about this movie. Disappointing :|

 

 

30 mins or less - decent comedy. Its short but the version I watched had some cuts. Watch it if you have time.

 

 

Wrong Turn 4 - first of all I am not suggesting this movie to anyone. I enjoyed it, it was better than WT3 and I was following the series too. I usually enjoy this type of flick. Its pure "Gory Fun". Watch it only if you love Gore genre and have watched its earlier parts, also if you have no problem watching low budget b-grade actors movie. Yes, I am saying the movie is a third class low budget with b-grade actors movie yet I enjoyed it coz i don't mind all the problem I mentioned. Yes, there are also some scenes where you'll laugh instead of getting scared.

ok sheku.np

 

It was just that when i first read the review,it looked very negative and anti film to me.U extensively elaborated the negative points in the movie but as u said u liked the VFX,u didnt even try to elaborate the standout VFX nor did u mention what u liked in them and how well it was done.Therefore your whole review goes into the anti film tone whereas the good points should have been included but u did not include that.

 

If u can elaborate the bad points then whats good in the film should also be written,and that was the main let down of the review that u have unseen the good points.

 

U also didnt mention the music about the film which is a big mistake as Music in Indian movies plays a big part plus u didnt mention anything about the Effort tried to make the film,nor did u praise the movie makers to attempt such thing thus the review for me feels anti-srk and negative.Hope u write better reviews next time and cover all the points and dont be biased.

 

Also i m not dyslesix but are surely dumb if u thought that

 

Can u post ur Robot review here if u have written it?

Ive practically addressed every single thing you've mentioned if you bothered reading all my posts. But clearly you havent bothered reading them and thats why I asked you if you were dyslexic. After I said the South Indian thing was an honest mistake, you quoted that very post and insulted me saying that I am a fool to get hurt by that. The very post where I said I wasnt. Clearly something is wrong somewhere.

 

Furthermore, Im not going to appreciate the effort for the movie. Its the most idiotic thing to praise about a film. Every movie the same effort goes into, if not more, the same and more level of dedication is given by directors and producers who have to work twice as hard to market the name as they are unknown to the world, much like the actors of the movie. Just because the lead hero and lady appear in a gazillion interviews doesnt make it = more effort than say a director who appears in 1 interview on Doordarshan. Your logic is terribly flawed.

 

Again, you havent bothered reading my posts where Ive clearly said I HAVE NOT watched Robot/Endhiran.

Ra One My Experience:

 

More money into it and ra one could have nailed it.The 150 crore is clearly visible in the movie,kudos to SRK to think and attempt out of the blue

 

Some of the jokes will not tickle many persons but they dont hamper the film.Chitti`s Entry was Ra.One coming out into real world could have been explained more rather than just give a sneak peak at the start of the film.The Special Effects was Faptastic,No Indian Movie comes close to this and i mean not even close.Hats Off to VFX

 

 

Ohh.. God, somebody please explain this guy!

 

Well, this is my final verdict:-

 

"I lost my HOPE in explaining HOPE that there is No HOPE for Ra.One"

I still prefer VFX of ROBOT > VFX of Ra.One.

 

@Hope: Did you even see ROBOT before claiming that nothing comes close to Ra1 VFX!!

 

Murder 2 --> A Typical Bhatt Category. I still don't understand some Mohit Suri tries to tell through his every film about the lives of Girls who are in Human Traficking. Be it in Kalyug or Aawarapan or Murder 2.

I always love Bhatt movies, Even though they are Dark,Gritty but you can learn a thing or two and has social elements in it. Not a routine formulas....

 

I give Murder 2 a solid 8/10 ( Emraan as usual, does great when it comes to Bhatt Camp, Prashanth is the Show Stopper of this Movie, Jacquilene is just for Steamy Scenes and nothing great particular.... The rest all did fairly good job.)

 

Movie Reviewed on Playstation 3 : Murder 2 BluRay.
