the first review- chennai express

hi guys, you thought i wouldn't be back huh!
guess you were wrong!
hello you filthy downloaders, send your keyboards to clean, you jerkers :D
last time i was writing a blogpost, i went off on a coffee break, its been months, but man its good to be back!
so, back to awesomeness guys, i just have one life and too much to say...
and as the name i gave this is 'talk about everything', i thought, oh hell, i may do that as well.
so today i am reviewing a film of bollywood, thats something i thought i'd never do.
but the disastrous, wretched condition the bollywood is facing, the dearth of good directors, compelled me to do that.
the "chennai express".
for all the non-bollywood watchers, this is one new movie of shahrukh khan (webcake-wiki) and deepika padukone.
so, i'd start with a publicity stunt that was quite inspiring too, the actress' name was shown first in the opening credits, instead of the actor's. as you all must be aware of the sad fact that india is a very sexist country, and that when a girl is raped here, the bloody rapists not only do her in groups, they also insert iron rods upto her intestines to remove the DNA prints. naming the heroine first really helped the problem.
              but about the movie, it sucked. its a real hope killer, and i expect a huge migration of indian people ahead. i will start with the legend. the shahrukh khan. he doen't go well in comedy. humour is not his cup of tea at all, maybe he should remember this if he needs more years in bollywood. because the industry forgets very easily. he can still do that 'albatross' move, that open wide arms thing, but he can't make people laugh. though he tried a lot, but in this effort, he killed the scenes.
             now about the actress. deepika padukone. she was the only one limb that tried and held the movie upright. ms. dimples has acting in her and i see a great future of her ahead. maybe it was my indivisual problem, but i did not like the south-indian accent. maybe it was too much of a deal. but with such a cute face and cute acting, my ears weren't even working properly. hahah.
             the problem with the most seriousness is the direction. has rohit shetty lost it? he did his signature 'car flying, car crashing' thing in this movie. but the direction was lame, a schoolkid with a handy-cam would have done it better. no scenic scenes, no notable twists, it was the most predictable movie of the decade, i can predict that. there is so much scarcity of good story tellers that people like rohit shetty etc. can fry bullshit and they will still be in the game. i think directors can make great changes in the thinking of an indivisual, and as they say, the thinking of an indivisual is the thinking of the country.
              the movie had no listenable songs, let alone any that gets on the chart. everytime that chenn-ai-ai-ai background played, i had a massive urge inside me to throw something at the screen. but being a social animal as i am, i controlled my anger. no notable background score, nothing. if i rate it out of 10, i'd give it 3. you earned it bros. now, like every other review on the street, i should give you some pros too right?
well beep off, i found none.
              as i go, people, i'd give you all one reason to watch the movie. you will get to know how creatively backward we indians are. that 2.15 hours.mins of bullshit earned 100 crores rs. (18 million dollars) in one weekend!
ENJOY THE SHOW!
see ya soon, stay awesome.
