Reviews

I was initially skeptic about this due to the negative reviews from others, however I am glad I stayed with this feature. It is a collection of 4 different short movies, with different actors and plots, done by different teams and production houses (you can see it at the end in credits). Each movie has nothing to do with the others, they are all independent (exactly as it says Anthology in the opening credits).

The 4 short movies are reminiscent of Twilight Zone, the only common thing in these movies is that they all deal with some abnormality related to time. The acting is quite decent, score and sound effects are done well. Overall, they retain the interest level and intrigue for each piece on its own.

I would say this anthology is a decent effort, perhaps some people were/would be disappointed who might have been looking for action / thriller and lots of moving part relating to time jumps or discontinuities (perhaps the title name is a bit misleading in this respect), however these movies are quite subtle in their approach.

Total Siyapaa is Total wastage of time, a torture to watch because it was so boring and slow moving.

It has been a Massive disappointment.

The only face saving is the last song at credits.

Ali Zafar's 'Tere bin Laden' was funny and well executed. Total Siyapaa on the other hand is not. It is sad because it could have been a good movie, however, I constantly had the feeling of a movie made with no real effort put in to it, poor direction, overacting and bad dialog with even worse delivery. Rest of the family felt the same also.

Save yourself, watch something else.
