It's a documentary on Ms. Peaks. There are no intimate scenes. It is a documentary without any plot or a story line. To put it simply,nothing, just a big busted woman in various stages of undress. You could easily find big busted woman with implants during the period of the movie. You could also find movies with very good plots as well. Did not find any USP for this movie. So not sure why one would watch it unless they are a fan of Ms Peak.

You could find better fantasy or X rated material easily. I am surprised to see that it has rating of 7.3 at the time of writing this review.

Not worth the time finding the copy.

I would say it is the Indian version of Shawshank Redemption. Both these movies are amazing tributes to the indomitable human spirit and that is where the parallel ends. The setting and context are very different for the two movies.

The love story provides a very nice context to narrate the story of how frail man surmounts all odds. The social issues of caste system, politics, corruption and the Indian indifferent attitude have been blended very nicely in the story which has taken inspiration from the life of protagonist Dasrath Majhi. There is an amazing simplicity in the entire narration with contextual comedy, scores at the right moment which maintain the tempo of the movie. I found it a gripping narration.

Nawaz-ud-din Siddque has done justice to the character. In fact there are very few in Bollywood who could have pulled it off. He is sure growing in stature with every movie.

I hope it gets a nomination for the Oscars in some category.

There are not many reviews which cover how bad this movie was and so I felt compelled to write one. For one, a rating of 9.1/10 on IMDb. Its an insult to the entire film making industry. Off late specially for the Bollywood movies people are being able to rig the ratings on IMDb as well at least for a short duration which is sad.

Coming to the point...everything is fine till Rani lands in Paris. Within a few sequences she completely forgets that she is in Paris and starts talking in Hindi with almost everyone...LOL. So the character is not conservative she lacks common sense and downright stupid. And then she has the guts to travel in dark and deserted alleys and is surprised to hear that the stewardess has a child without marriage...Give me a break..perhaps they did not have a television also at their home or was she from the 50's. I am not sure if the Rajouri they are referring to is in Delhi.

If it was Delhi, its an insult to the Delhites. The director tries all these gimmickry to evoke sympathy for the character of Rani but sadly there is none. In fact, the sheer stupidity that the character portrays evokes contempt for her.

It's evident why so many people have rated this movie highly as they take it to be female empowerment. Going on a binge is not becoming assertive or becoming empowered it only shows the weakness and shallowness of character.

I found Fukrey to a decent comedy movie from Bollywood after a long time. For a change it did not have the cheap and double meaning jokes that Bollywood crap is so prone to these days.

While the script was not that strong the movie had a good tempo all along and was fun to watch. Given that few Bollywood movies have any script this one was a lot better.

Most of the cast, specially Choche have done a fairly good job. Some of the stuff was mindless but that was the intent as well. The director did not try to pretend that it was something else.

The theme is about some kids wanting to get into college by any means and how they land into trouble and then get out of it. It was fun to watch it. One of the better stuff from Bollywood in quite a while.

Another Typical Yash Chopra Movie to sum it up!! Same old story with the crew traveling to exotic locations at your and my expense. If locations and songs is what you are looking for go for it.

If there is anything else you are expecting avoid it(not worth wasting the money and more importantly the time).

SRK does what he does best over-doing things.

KK has that same expressionless face of a model walking down the ramp.

The said part was that even the Discovery folks got drawn into this flick. Yash Chopra and Discovery are too brands that should not go together.

From an expectation and delivery standpoint reminded me of Ra-One.
