As an aspiring film-maker and actor, I hate to speak badly about another artist’s work, but movies like Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap make me scratch my head – Why do people waste so much time, and effort on projects that lack any artistic merit or entertainment value?

I can honestly write a better script in about a week. The script writer of this film should be hung, drawn and quartered for serving this plate full of caca to the audience.

Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap revolves around a reformed Vijju (Amitabh Bacchan), who has given up his life of crime, and moved to Paris to run a pub.

In the beginning, we are given to believe that Vijju has been flown to India as an assassin to take out ACP (Asst. Commissioner of Police) Karan (Sonu Sood) because a Dubai Don (Kabir) is pissed at Karan, and wants him dead.

As the film unfolds, we learn that Vijju is actually Karan’s biological father, and for reasons only God knows, has flown to India to watch over his son. I mean, are we to believe that after all these years Vijju had a vision that his beta is in trouble?

The whole plot, as well as the script, is shoddy and poorly constructed.

I feel bad for all those directors and producers who have powerful scripts that will never see the light of the day, but the likes of Mr. Bachchan, owing to his stature in Bollywood, can raise a mountain of money for this pile of crap.

I feel investors should look at the script, rather than the lead actor. I have friends who swear by Dabanng, and I personally could not care less for it for the simple reason, it had no substance. The script was full of fillers, and clever one liners, and of course “Munni badnam hui”.

The only thing worth mentioning in Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap, are the action sequences, and the ones with Sonu Sood, not Big B. I was getting cramps in my stomach watching Big B kill about 2 dozen goons without reloading his gun. Are we to believe that he is the reincarnation of Superman? Continue reading »

Delhi Belly Box Office – Decent Collection

Oh, no darlin, we didn’t hate Delhi Belly.

Au contraire, it’s a pretty decent English film.

At least by Indian standards, Delhi Belly is most certainly an entertaining movie.

Paisa Vasool, as all ye putzheads like to say.

It’s just that we’re amazed to see Aamir Khan forever chomping on one film-maker or the other’s drill-bit.

This time, Aamir Khan goes down on British film director and former Mr.Madonna Guy Ritchie and neatly slides it  down his cavernous, stretched throat abyss.

Boy, Aamir Khan must have liked the experience so much. For it shows in Delhi Belly, which is a very slick movie, at least, for most of its 1hr-42min playing time.

BTW, one of the main characters in the movie even boasts about a blowjob he got from his girl-friend (at her wedding to another guy) and then gets into a rollicking, disco song.

Delhi Belly is in the mold of Guy Ritchie’s crime films like Snatch, RocknRolla and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels featuring a bunch of oddball, colorful characters with all the frenetic momentum, wild antics, weird twists and bullets flying. But all of it happens in Delhi Belly within the confines of an Indian setting.

You’re unlikely to get your undies wet if the Guy Ritchie genre is familiar terrain but you’ll likely still find Delhi Belly an enjoyable experience.

Now before you schmucks jump down our throat, Aamir Khan is the producer of Delhi Belly and makes a fleeting appearance as well in the film toward the end.

A fast-paced film centering around three youths (also roommates in a dingy place) who are trapped in a diamond smuggling enterprise accidentally, Delhi Belly is a wild-ride for those of you schmucks habituated to crude Bollywood drivel like Ready or boring romcoms like Tees Maar Khan.
