2/10
Smug, repellent,and disturbingly bad.
1 March 2012
This film thinks it's a whole lot smarter than it is. Trotting out the hoary, smug idea about how small towns are stultifying and full of stupid people is the least of its problems. Everything in it rings utterly false. The most slowly paced, and depressing movie I have seen this year. Every moment of almost every scene was composed of non-stop cringing and the entire audience hiding their faces in their hands. Of all the films I have ever seen, none has ever had a more unlikeable or irredeemable script. This was clearly the intent and to this end the actual acting was pretty good, but it did nothing to make the film any more watchable.

The most annoying part is the performance of the female lead,Ali Zafar was pretty good,but Aditi Rao Hydari ruined the chemistry.

My recommendation, in a nutshell, is don't touch this one with a barge pole. Seriously, do not be tempted- life is short, and you'll never get these 2 hrs back.

Oh- unless you're the sort of person who likes to laugh at stupid jokes. If you do, maybe you'll enjoy this movie, but judging by my fellow viewers' sighs and groans of disgust and disbelief you will be one of few. Overall : 2/10
