Review : Few things give me greater pleasure (and pain) than to acknowledge some of the pathetic cinematic moments bollywood has created. Here is my take on the top 10 worst movies in the recent past:
1) Mother - This bomb of a movie with an overaged rekha and an irritating cheesy starlet as her daughter was the laughing stock of the industry. A lesson for rekha - do not ever make movies simply to try and be 'young'. Its not about age... its about presentation. wish she could bemore like dimple who doesnt do trash and when she makes the rare appearance, does so with grace (dil chahtha hai, leela etc)
2) Bachke Rehna Re baba - No prejudice against rekha but seeing rekha in a blonde wig and a mini skirt trying to be seductive is something which still gives me nightmares. as far as mallika sherawat goes, she needs a guidebook called ' newcomers guide to bollywood'. WHAT a disaster of a movie !
3) Farz - I havent seen the movie but I guarantee that by merit of its promos itself the movie would make it to this list. Was Preity Zinta coerced by the underworld to do this movie or what? WHY would she EVER even think about doing this apology of a movie? She would probably need to get stoned on the sets everyday to shoot scenes.
4) Yadeein - On second thoughts, this movie is the perfect night time movie to induce sleep. For all the insomnics reading this, please get a copy and keep at all times. Aids terrifically in deep sleep!
5) Boom - The name says it all! I think the producers got an inkling on the final results when they saw the first cut and hence named the movie boom, in the spirit of the sureshot bomb the movie was ! wish mr bachchan would have done 3/4 extra commercials to make the extra money and not this black spot in his movie career.
6) Bewafa - Nothing intriguing about remakes! Not every remake is a devdas thats for sure. This snooze inducing bomb with a hysterical KAreena KApoor doing a Mala Sinha act (from the original) is a sure shot entrant for this category. who can ham better than kareena? tough to find a competent match for this media made actress (?)
7) I know.... you have all been waiting for this inclusion (if you have actually read till here:) - Aap Mujhe Achey Lagney Lage - Kareena's firm rival in the hamming category, Amisha Patel gets in the drivers seat and promises that what Kareena is good at (ie hamming) I can be better at! In one sentence, she SURE does live upto that promise. Ms Patels rendition of the agonized damsel in distress needs Oscar attention please. Ably supported by 'Hyperactive Hammer Roshan' this movie is a sure shot classic !!!!
8) Dhai Akshar Prem ke - Ahh, some people never learn. Ms Rai needs to understand that only 1/2 directors can make her shed her plastic act on screen. For the rest of the movie makers, can we suggest padded walls to beat yre heads against just trying to make Aishwarya Rai act? Accompanied by 'Abhishek' in his pre-yuva days..... I rest my case. nothing more to be said
9) Chalte Chalte - Yeah, I mean the shahrukh rani movie! Dont howl fans of the twosome and acknowledge that the movie was nothing short of disaster! The off repeated tale of marital woes offered zero cinematic excitement. Which socialite in mumbai/delhi would happily fall in love with the owner of 2 trucks? Not an iota of reality in the movie. Only merit - rani mukherjee looked jhakaas (i think thats what saved the movie)
10) DIl Ka Rishta - Another sleep inducer for a 'RAI'ny day. Aishwarya rai gives the worst performance of her life (so far ie, I still have my hopes on worse performances from her in the near future). Ably supported by wooden wonders arjun rampal and the guy whos from tum bin (truly belongs to the BIN). Seriously, one more giggle from Aishwarya Rai and I am going to cry uncontrolably. Hope you enjoyed the list....
