Overrated.

The first 3/4 of the movie sucks. The last 1/4 was bearable. What's the deal with that song? I wouldn't of even noticed it if so many people hadn't bitched about it. Anyways...moral of the story: Very average movie.

The girl with the big puffy curly hair pissed me off with her lame drunk acting.
But then again, I only saw the previews.

I'm one of the rare desi girls who gave up on bollywood.

Overacting trick.

She was acting like a crackhead instead of a drunk.

I gave up too.

But then I get this itch. I've scratched it over the past few days with like 5 movies. You're right about the girl, absolutely no skills at acting drunk. Who the ell walks like that?

You should see this movie called 'Maqbool'. It has some amazing actors and a stellar performance. I haven't seen it as yet, but have heard quite a lot about it.

:p

How can you say such good things if you haven't seen it?

Well I can watch it right now...if it seems worth it. What's the general plot and stuff?

Well to be honest, i watch only selected bollywood flicks. And this review has come from a friend who shares the same point of interest.

It's the Indian version of Macbeth. But i can assure you the actors starring in the movie are really talented. When you have the likes of Irfan Khan & Pankaj Kapur in one movie, you can expect a stellar performance!

I'm looking forward to seeing this movie myself. Might do so in a day or two.

Maqbool is a good movie, check out Sarfarosh if you can.

Honestly I've given up on looking at the actors.

Unless I hear the name Nana Patekar. The guys is an amazing actor. Other than that, I just look for plots and such. I love movies along the lines of D-company, where the plot is realistic...and there's good acting. No typical bollywood bullshit, where everything's over dramatized and there's a damn song/dance scene every 10 minutes.

I agree to what you have to say.

Very few actors are actually worth watching. For the rest you should just look for the plot and decide. But in my opinion, i would level Pankaj Kapur and Irfan Khan with the likes of Nana Patekar!!

Well there are reviews there.

I've seen it. It's one of my dad's fav hindi movies and he's a movie buff, likes movies like The game, Godfather etc etc. Anyways, it's a good movie overall though the love story bit with Sonali Bendre gets a bit boring, but you can just forward the songs, though Sonali plays a role in the end.

Well in my personal opinion, they are as good!

Anyways, i guess we have been talking more about the movie Maqbool, the actors Nana Patekar, Irfan Khan and Pankaj Kapur, than the topic itself: the movie 'Gangster'

:p

From a review:

The movie does push a fairly unbalanced "Pakistan aggressors, India = victims" message

sounds wonderful. :rolleyes:
