Movie critics are hammering Yash Raj Films‘ new movie Badmaash Company.

In recent years,  Yash Raj Films has established a strong reputation for putting out trashy films and Badmaash Company doesn’t stray from that self-destructive course.

Here are excerpts from a sample of critics.

NDTV:

Badmaash Company is a proof that the Yash Raj Films formula is irrevocably broken.

The posturing stars, snazzy styling, foreign locations, plastic textures and necessary dash of family values simply can’t cut it anymore.

Badmaash Company is a staggeringly tedious film, which takes two hours and twenty three minutes to give us the moral science lesson that honesty is the best policy.

IBNLive:

Packed with lazy clichés and convenient plot-holes, “Badmaash Company” is unforgivably long and insufferably boring. The acting — from all four leads — is nothing to speak of, and Sethi’s direction is amateurish to put it politely.

….Flogging the infamous Yash Raj Films formula of stylish costumes, gorgeous foreign locations and hip dance numbers, Sethi delivers a film that is entirely superficial and staggeringly dull. I’m going with one-and-a-half out of five for director Parmeet Sethi’s “Badmaash Company”. Unless you enjoy being punished, stay far away from this one. Continue reading »

We may or may not have a soft corner for Shahid Kapoor.

But we certainly don’t have a soft corner for garbage like Badmaash Company.

No Redeeming Elements
Badmaash Company is the latest piece of shit to emerge from the Augean stables of Yash Raj Films.

Folks, we tried hard, really hard to come up with some redeeming feature in Badmaash Company.

Alas, we came a cropper.

No, no, no. A peek of that bimbo Anushka Sharma’s 34B (??) globes encased in a golden yellow itsy bitsy bikini or the generous display of her fair upper thighs was definitely not a turn-on.

By the way, if we really want to see some skin or tit-show of a sluttish-acting gal there are plenty of night-clubs and go-go girls in our area. Why head to a theater to see an inferior B-grade product!

At its most basic, Badmaash Company is a boring, predictable, moral tale of the importance of not resorting to devious means to make a quick buck.

We’re mighty disappointed.

And to think we deprived ourselves of sleep to watch the midnight show of Iron Man 2.

Boy, whatever possessed us to do that. Must be our inordinate love of Robert Downey Jr after Iron Man and the more recent Sherlock Holmes.

Not Gripping
Although good ol’ Robert Downey Jr is back again donning the familiar maroon heavy iron suit and raising expectations sky-high among fans of the actor and the comic character, Iron Man 2 is not even a third as gripping as its predecessor.

The primary problem with Iron Man 2 is the ho-hum script, absence of crackling dialogs and the failure to meet the heightened expectations raised by the phenomenal success of the earlier film (Iron Man).

Even as industrialist Tom Stark a.k.a. Iron Man is boasting about ‘privatizing world peace’ and testifying before a Senate committee that it’d be a long time before there can be other Iron Man rivals, danger rears its head in the form of the Russian Ivan Lanko (Mickey Rourke), whose scientist father (one-time partner to Tom’s father Howard Stark) dies passing on the knowledge to his son.

More than Robert Downey Jr, we were enamored of Mickey Rourke’s revenge-inspired character Ivan, building a rival design to destroy Iron Man and joining hands with Stark’s business rival Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell). Continue reading »
