the criticism begins- "ajab prem ki gajab kahani"

perhaps i had a little too much expectation from the movie. maybe i wasnt in the mood. its also probable that the movie was, simply stating, BADDD!!!. for starters, it made no sense whatsoever. i tried very hard. i really did to understand the whole mindset of the director, story-writer, producer and the others involved in compiling that... do u call that a movie???.
the humour was unalterely copied from the 80's Govinda's movies. they used to sound good then. but now... well times change and so does the mind set of people. when u star ranbir kapoor after the release of wake up sid u need to come up with something equally good if not better. the audience expects that.
ok i assent that there were a few light moments in the movie in which the comedy over took my frustration and i actually laughed but as i said they were few. very few.
coming to the action sequence. the rajnikant defiance of physics laws is history. people are educated. even if the creators of the movie want to ignore that then please atleast respect poor Newton's discoveries. he really worked hard and whacked his brains to come up with the concept of gravity and laws of motion.
my guess is that the director (or whosoever is responsible for that torture) wanted to be at par with priyadarshan and his creations. well i hope that this experience has taught him something. that something being the fact there are somethings better left to the experts. also while making a movie people should bear in mind that not everywhere are the cinema halls air conditioned and coushin seated. we do have rock hard seats. some individuals (like myself) will also sit in the cememted (not carpeted) aisle too if the occasion asked for it. so the 3 hr experience should not be this bad atleast. have some humanity.
for a change the music was real music to the ears, the only thing that the movie was worth sitting for. i didnt get the name of the music director and the lyricist but both had a good synchronization. the lyrics actually made sense (surprise!!!) and touched my calloused heart and stultified mind.
