Lame, lame, lame

Warning: Spoilers
What exactly was this movie about?? On the face of it, it seems watchable, yuppie crowd, good music, Bangalore......but all that seems does not eventuate. Extremely loose script, lame dialogs and just about bearable acting. The movie looked like it had been shot on a camcorder, with extremely bad cuts. Why didn't they just use that huge contraption that Purab was carrying around. Everything looked like it had been shot in a studio, maybe that was because of the echoing voices, or perhaps because of the lack of background music. Acting was so so, most of the time it looked like it was an extremely slow paced play. None of the characters were fully developed, and they always seemed to be in a hurry to go somewhere.......where?? I don't know, maybe you should ask the cast, and while you're with them, also ask Nandita Das why she felt the need to do this film. She looks different and acts as well as ever, but didn't she read the script before signing on?? Purab wasn't great, and as for the other actors........why were they even in the movie (esp Kabir's girl friend.........what was her name?) I usually appreciate experimental, young movies, but this one was a farce. Not worth watching, unless you'd like to see what Bangalore looks like in the director's dreams.
