Since it's my blog's second birthday this week (26 April 2014), I have decided to blog every day up to it. However short. However frivolous (which of course goes without saying).
I saw 2 States last weekend.
The trailers during the interval were more interesting than the movie.
Alia Bhatt was wonderful though.
Now only if someone advised her to not do bland romantic comedies. (And physically restrained Randeep Hooda from doing trash like Jism 2).
The two trailers I saw were of Revolver Rani and Samrat and Co.
Revolver Rani looks horrible. But I am still going to watch it out of academic curiosity. And to express solidarity with the feminist cause. Though I doubt that's what the film-makers were going for. It looks more like they first saw Neha Dhupia in Phas Gaye Re Obama, then watched Loin and his moll in Yaadon ki Baarat , and decided how fun it would be if the tables were turned. Not that that's a bad thing.
The hero of Samrat and Co. is a detective. He sports curly hair, goes around in a coat with an upturned collar, and talks very fast. In one sequence he runs out of a building (presumably in pursuit), stops in front of the gate, shuts his eyes and seems to concentrates hard. Maps appear on the screen, indicating directions (presumably of the possible routes his quarry may have taken).
And ooh, he has a 'seventh' sense. Since the sixth one is so passé.

I don't know what you are talking about! Revolver Rani looks excellent! The one with the curly haired detective on the other hand list me at the declaration that the protagonist had a seventh sense as opposed to a sixth sense!
ReplyDeleteLet's watch Revolver Rani together then :)
Delete(I tend to not like films like that though...I remember being disgusted by Ek Chaalis ki Last Local).
I was being sarcastic about Samrat and Co. :(
I thought the description would make it clear to Sherlock followers that it was a rip-off.
