Yes, the recidivist dickheads in Bollywood have done it again.

You ask, done what again?

We say, what else – Theft.

Kidnap director Sanjay Gadhvi and his dirty accomplices in crime have stolen a fairly decent Hollywood movie (released in 2007 as Shattered in the U.S. and Butterfly on a Wheel elsewhere) and mangled it into a ugly horror-show starring one real-life criminal Sanjay Dutt and three artistic criminals – the ex-dopehead Sanjay Dutt, fluke-star Imran Khan and that half-naked monsterpiece Minissha Lambha.

Following a tip from a reader of the SearchIndia.com blog (Thanks – Araj), we borrowed a copy of Shattered from our neighborhood Blockbuster to see if there were similarities between Shattered and Kidnap.

After watching both Kidnap and Shattered, we have not an iota of doubt that Kidnap is one more instance of the lazy Bollywood pigs trying to take the easy way out to profits.

Featuring Pierce ‘James Bond’ Brosnan (kidnapper), Gerard Butler (father of kidnapped girl Sophie) and Maria Bello (mother of kidnapped girl) in key roles, Shattered is a good movie with strong performances by all three.

Here are some similarities between Kidnap and Shattered:

1. In both movies, the story revolves round the kidnapping of a young girl and the efforts by the parents to rescue her.
2. In both movies, the actual kidnapping is not shown as it happens (it’s shown very briefly in Kidnap in flashback).
3. In both movies, the kidnapper is not motivated by money.
4. In both movies, the motive for the kidnapping is revenge.
5. In both movies, the kidnapper orders a series of bizarre tasks to be completed under Continue reading »

Abhishek Bachchan Sets New Pathetic Record

So, you thought Love Story 2050 was ugly?

And you thought Sarkar Raj was lousy?

You thought God Tussi Great Ho was crappy?

Well, count your blessings if you ain’t seen this pathetic piece of shit called Drona.

Compared to the nightmare that Drona represents, Love Story 2050, Sarkar Raj and every other ugly Bollywood movie ever made is a Oscar-worthy masterpiece.

Take it from us, this duffer called Abhishek Bachchan can’t act.

Yes, Abhishek Bachchan can’t score even an F in acting. Period.

Somebody, please unleash Charles Bronson or Dr Jack Kevorkian on this jackass.

And Drona’s bozo of a director Goldie Behl, who also claims responsibility for this asinine story, knows less about movie-making than the dumbest spotboy on a Tamil movie set.

Why do we believe Goldie Behl is the patron saint of all jackasses? Because the Drona story is so utterly unconvincing and unappealing, the settings are so amateurish, the music is so pedestrian, stunt scenes are downright mediocre and the overall effect of watching Drona is of walking into a room full of Down’s Syndrome cases.

You say special effects in Drona – We say what special effects? We didn’t see any.

Besides its hopelessly inane story, the most striking thing about Drona is an expressionless Abhishek Bachchan, who zombie-like sleepwalks through Continue reading »
