Kites Review – OMG, Utter Garbage

For the first time ever in the U.S., we witnessed and heard the audience loudly jeeringΒ  a Bollywood film.

This unprecedented incident happened on Thursday evening at the end of the 8PM show of Kites at Anil Ambani’s Big Cinemas theater in North Bergen, New Jersey (just outside Lincoln Tunnel) in Screen 2.

To the folks in the last two rows in the middle section of the cinema hall, we feel felt your pain. πŸ™

Really.

It’s hard to believe this nonsense was two years in the making.

Principal Villain – Rakesh Roshan
To those who believe the villain of the film is Tony (Nick Brown), hell no.

The main villain and primary architect of this garbage is Hrithik Roshan’s father Rakesh Roshan, who is responsible for the story and production.

If Kites proves anything at all, it’s that Rakesh Roshan is completely inept in the story business.

Hey Hrithik, if we were you we wouldn’t have jumped off the cliff but we’d have gleefully pushed the bald bozo Rakesh Roshan off the high peak into the sea.

Messy Story
As we had suspected, Rakesh Roshan steals the basic plot of a young man falling for his would-be brother-in-law’s girl from Woody Allen’s brilliant Match Point.

But that’s where the similarities end.

Where Woody Allen skilfully develops the plot through the marriage and the murder and ultimately the hero getting away with murder, the Kites story is a complete mess as it weaves back and forth into the past and present.

The story starts going off the rails the moment we learn Natasha a.k.a. Linda (Barbara Mori) is actually our hero J’s (Hrithik Roshan) wife. From that point on, the story plunges into amateurish territory and can never rise up through the dance competition, the love-scenes, the escape into the desert et al. All of it downright amateurish stuff.

Our young Las Vegas-based hustler J’s favorite money-spinner is to marry immigrants desperate for a Green Card. And Linda happens to be his 11th bride.

They part after the wedding. They meet again at Bob’s palace-like home (not unlike the country estate in Match Point) when Cupid strikes.

Never have we seen a love angle so clumsily executed and totally lacking depth.

Tony (Nick Brown) is the archetypal Bollywood bad guy – loud, crude and violent.

What Rubbish
No, no, no. In Las Vegas, casino owners don’t cut off the ears of crooked employees with a plier nor do they shoot them dead or hang them upside down.

Are there no limits to rubbish?

The orgy of violence toward the end in which Hrithik Roshan’s character mows down the entire bunch of bad buys was again sheer nonsense.

By the way, the chase on the highway by the police was underwhelming as well. We’re tired of seeing cars rolling off trucks on to highways. It was nice the first time we saw it in Bad Boys. Now it’s tiresome.

Think of something different, guys.

Mediocre Acting
Neither Hrithik nor the girl Barabara Mori covered themselves with glory.

Will somebody please tell Barbara that flashing your teeth every few seconds and speaking in Spanish is not acting.

Hrithik too was disappointing in some key moments. First, when his friend Robin takes Linda to the hospital and again in the final moments of the film before he takes the big dive. He was plain awful in both scenes and merely passable other times.

There’s little chemistry between Hrithik and the Mexican actress Barbara Mori.

None of the songs did anything to lift us out of the disappointing stupor into which we’d succumbed.

Kangana Ranaut and Kabir Bedi hardly have any role to speak of.

Bottom line, Kites came across as no more than a breath of stale air.

Restless Audience
As we said at the outset, the audience clearly seemed unhappy with the movie.

There was continuous chit-chat, particularly during the second half. And no one objected.

Folks, Kites is most definitely not worth your time or money.

If you are desperate to watch a nice flick this weekend, borrow Match Point and see it. You’ll thank us.

Show Kites your middle finger with mucho gusto. The stinker deserves no better.

    Raavan/Raavanan will be no different

    They screened both Rajneeti and Raavan trailers tonight.

    Rajneeti seemed the better one.

    Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai are the kiss of death for a movie. They bring Shani with them wherever they go.

    Let’s see how the two movies turn out.

    Hi SI,

    Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai are the kiss of death for a movie. They bring Shani with them wherever they go.

    LOL..what a statement!!

    Then can you explain how the film Guru starring both of them escaped that Shani?

    Since Guru was based on Dhirubhai Ambani’s life, did the Ambanis have anything to do with it?

    hrithik’s best movie is koi mil gaya,which is the worst?

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    This Kites trash easily ranks among his worst films.

    What a silly, boring story.

    The failure of Indian cinema is at bottom the failure to write a gripping story.

      I am wondering if you’d shower praise on Koi Mil Gaya, if you watched it now. I have a feeling that you may not like it as much. I wasn’t much impressed at that time.

      You Write: I am wondering if you’d shower praise on Koi Mil Gaya, if you watched it now.

      We’ve watched so many fine movies since Koi Mil Gaya that it’d fall terribly short in comparison.

      Other Hrithik movies that should be avoided like the plague – Aap Mujhe Achchhe Lagne Lage, Mujhse Dosti Karoge, Yaadein and of course, that epic display of ineptitude from Karan Johar: Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham.

      SearchIndia.com Responds:

      1. With the exception of Aap Mujhe Achchhe Lagne Lage, we’ve seen the other movies in your list. Pitiful, all of them.

      Mujhse Dosti Karoge, Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, Maine Pyar Kiya, Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya, Hum Aapke Dil Mein Rehte Hain, Hum Aapke Hain Koun, Hum Kisise Kum Nahin, Humko Deewana Kar Gaye, Humko Tumse Pyaar Hai…..

      God-awful titles.

      We’ve abandoned all hope of decent content but can’t we at least get decent names!

    Here’s a joke: Hrithik claims he’s ‘humbled by all the great reactions!’.

    Ha ha ha.

    Does anybody believe such nonsense.

    There seems to be two versions of Kites.

    An “international” version with more action and sexuality, 90 minutes long , and a Hindi version, which is about 130 minutes long.

    Some reviewers have been scathing in India:

    http://movies.rediff.com/review/2010/may/21/review-kites-is-a-trainwreck.htm

    In contrast, looks like American reviewers are far more charitable to Kites (as I inferred from the following links which were given in an article in rediff.com):

    http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/movies/la-et-capsules-kites-20100521,0,6572141.story

    Thanks to some nimble fingers, I was able to watch and enjoy ‘A Prophet’.
    I was hooked on to the movie, and despite some (very few) not very convincing parts in the movie, I found it great. My favourite scene is, when towards the end, the Italian boss Luciani wants Malik to come to him, but instead Luciani is forced to walk up to him, and to his dismay, finds that he is not allowed to meet Malik. That was, to me, the moment when Malik’s Prophet-like status was fully underlined, although he probably had become a Prophet a bit earlier.

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    1. Perhaps, the American reviewers were all soaked in gin. πŸ˜‰ Just as we are now on this hot day. Gin + Ice Cold Seltzer Water + a Little Salt + 5 minutes of the combination in the freezer = Nirvana πŸ˜‰

    We were aware of those reviews, having seen them on RT. It’s hard to understand how Bollywood movies seem to find favor with American reviewers. Most likely, they go in with very, very low expectations that are easily exceeded.

    2. We watched A Prophet in the theater recently and found it to be a good film.

    The three Ritz theaters in Philly and the Landmark, IFC and Angelika (all in NYC) get nice foreign films.

    in case Vijay does do such a movie …..who will compensate the theatre owners when that one flops ? ….. Also Surya’s Singam ….trailer is out ………looks like a Vijay movie ……….

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    Agree with you on the Singam trailer.

    Surya is turning into the second Sivakumar

    His father Sivakumar was a C-grade star in the old days.

    The son is merely imitating the father!

      I heard his next next one is called 7aam Arivu /Ezham Arivu, directed by A.R.Murugadoss. Shruti Hassan is the heroine. What do you think of her?

      oh, and i watched the audio launch of Singam, and Surya said that apparently Abhishek Bachan and John Abrahams watched his Ayan, and were considering remaking it… (i honestly dont know what to say regarding this, im still in the shock phase)

      Have you heard that John Abrahams (again) and Asin are doing the remake of Kaakha Kaakha?? omg, out of anyone, they chose John Abraham. why why why? and why Asin? she was bad enough in the telugu remake Gharshana with Venkatesh. They are gonna slaughter the film, im telling you πŸ™

      SearchIndia.com Responds:

      1. You write above: and Surya said that apparently Abhishek Bachan and John Abrahams watched his Ayan, and were considering remaking it…

      If Abhishek Bachchan sees us peeing, the schmuck would consider it high art and insist on remaking it in Hindi. πŸ˜‰

      2. You write: Have you heard that John Abraham (again) and Asin are doing the remake of Kaakha Kaakha??

      Yes, we read somewhere that Kazhudai and Kazhudai are remaking Kaakha Kaakha (a movie we love) in Hindi.

      Watching/listening to Uyirin Uyire on YouTube as we type this response.

      3. You write: Shruti Hassan is the heroine. What do you think of her?

      Shruti? We’ve seen her in just one movie Luck.

      Here’s an excerpt from SI’s review of Luck:

      Debutan-tit
      What about Shruti Hassan, you ask?

      Yeah, what about her.

      Sure, her 34B (??) tits in the two-piece bikini debuted in this movie.

      What’s the big deal (or small deal, depending on your preference). It ain’t the first pair of Malgoas we’ve seen and, if our luck holds, won’t be the last.

      The gal doesn’t have much of a role in the movie and mercifully, in the limited screentime she has, she didn’t inflict any horrible damage. Hopefully, Shruti will land a meatier role in her next movie.

    I quite enjoy reading your Hindi film reviews even though I rarely agree with your critiques; you’re very entertaining and I have to smirk at your condescending tone towards us readers.

    But here’s the million dollar question. Why do you watch Indian movies so much given you have such a strong dislike of the vast majority of them?

    If I disliked Bollywood and its stars as much as you — the frequent use of words like garbage and references to fecal matter are a dead giveaway — I would stay away and put that money and those 2 to 3 hours of my life to better use each week.

    And for the record, Priyanka Chopra is a great actress!

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    1. You write above: And for the record, Priyanka Chopra is a great actress!

    And for the record, mental illness is often curable. Hope the link in the previous sentence helps (sorry about the distance though). πŸ˜‰

    Priyanka Chopra is a pimple festering sore on the bad ass of Bollywood. She wouldn’t recognize acting if it bit her on any part of her anatomy.

    Thank God, her recent movies are all biting the dust. Kaminey succeeded despite her presence.

    But to be fair to that freak, most of her peers can’t act either. Tabu auntie, Konkona-Sen Sharma didi and dadima Shabana are among the exceptions to the rule.

    Just returned home after watching kites with my family & friend.

    Huh!… u say 1st half was junk! Was it junk?? na it was the most pathetic piece of 1st half(shit) i have seen in my whole life!! Thank GOD i didnt go to see all those movies like HOUSEFULL, SURA, etc.

    During the intermission we(me n my friend) just looked at each other and put our hands in the air saying “what was that??!”… then giggled and ran to buy a pack of popcorn and Fanta. ( U’r Manchester girl is in Fanta ad.)

    U see SI, i saved a lot of money by not going to see all that god awful movies by ur reviews!! Thank u for being honest and to the point!

    The second half was also not good too but there was something to watch.But most of the time we were saying “story evade di??””(“Where’s the story”??). It was a really messy story, we couldn’t understand where it was going!!

    The songs were mediocre but had some very good cinematography.

    Just rang up Hrithik(my dream boyy!!) and told him ” nalla poli padam aane, nalla potta love story !!” (” films a gr8 hit, what a good love story!!”). By the way it actually means ( ” films a gr8 flop, what a messy story!!”). He thinks its a gr8 compliment and has byhearted it and is going around and telling to everyone (just like he said in the film “i shitted in my pants wow”! lol how was my joke??).

      Bet the above is also ripped (unlikely you’d have heard of the word Nazi).

      We pick #31: Overdose of sex with Ingrid Bergman and Audrey Hepburn. Jointly, may we add. πŸ˜‰ With Ennio Morricone conducting the orchestra of the theme music from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly at the foot of the bed.

        You write: Are u sure u want to die with these 2 dead corpses!

        We’ll take the dead Ingrids and Audreys over the Ranis, Asins, Katrinas, Deepikas, Kareenas and God Forbid the Priyankas any night oops any day.

    hmm the duty of a critic.

    BTW I feel it may be a fake news (wishful thinking??).

    Read the piece in your link.

    We are skeptical about the sequel seeing the light of the day.

    You were right SI.

    Kites was PATHETIC.

    Same reaction by the audience here too.

    Loud jeering at the end. When Hrithik was about to fall off the cliff, almost everyone shouted
    “come on, fall down quick” and by the time the ending credits rolled, many of them started clapping their hands, with joy as the film had finally ended. πŸ˜›

    Hrithik put in a fine performance IMO. His dancing at the start of the film too was impressive.

    SearchIndia.com Responds:

    We shudder to think what Kites’ failure will mean for us.

    Anil Ambani’s Big Cinemas will probably completely switch off the AC in the theaters here. Now they switch it on and off. πŸ™

      I was watching some Tina Munim songs on DVD.. what a babe. That’s probably Anil Ambani’s greatest decision.

      SearchIndia.com Responds:

      1. Tina Munim will always remind us of only one thing – Her (in)famous statement that she and Kaka (Rajesh Khanna) use the same toothbrush. πŸ˜‰

      2. Anil Ambani has never given us any other impression save that he hit the jackpot when he was born into the Dhirubhai Ambani family.

      Dhirubhai for all the criticism heaped upon him was a legend. A non pareil character.
