Garam Masala (2005)
If you like Pakistani Stage Comedies (Bakra Kisto pe) this is for you!
Just came back after watching it at Naz8 in Fremont. For those who want my opinion straight away, without having to read the complete review, here's the gist:
Watch it if you have:
-Nothing better to do.
-Free passes.
-Respect for Priyadarshan's earlier movies.
-Appreciation for Pakistani stage dramas (sans Bakra Kiston pe etc.)
-Not been keeping up with clichéd jokes.
-Huge crush on Jon Abraham, who delivers dialogues as if he is trying to recall forgotten lines.
-Curiosity to see Akshay and Paresh's excellent comic timing being wasted in poorly written dialogues (again, not an excuse for Jon)
-Desire to see TV standard actresses getting more screen time than so called established item actresses.
I gave it a 5 out of 10 because sadly, it is still better than the other junk being churned out of bollywood factories. I rate movies higher when I find them enjoyable in a repeated watch. This one is sadly miles away from that.
