Hi Guys! Welcome to another one of my reviews where I will rant for another 500-600 words about how useless & fuck all Baadshaho was as a movie.
It started off on the wrong foot only I suppose. They showed the back story and thought the audience would just instantly connect with it. Even after having Emraan Hashmi star in the movie, they fail to understand what foreplay is. This is an Action Drama, and well yeah, it did have it's moments that I loved and will remember. But if we leave those moments aside, what the fuck was going on in this movie?
Ileana who played a princess of a Rajput housing in Rajasthan began to seem as the victim of the movie but then at the brink of interval, the plot twist is introduced where she is actually a manipulative woman who is making men in her life do the dirty deeds for her. You don't understand the role either, right?
But her role was not the only one that had really stupid plot twists associated. Every character had some or the other twist which at times did not even make any sense. It was very disappointing for me as I was pretty excited for this movie to do good.
The premise of the movie was great and interesting, but I think story telling couldn't happen this time by Milan Luthria. He didn't do a good job at directing this one.
It wasn't just the story that was flawed, but the action sequences were flawed too. Yes, I get that it is an action drama, but for the love of good you need to remember when you've to say cut in an action sequence. All the action sequences were pretty long and useless. If I had to explain them better, I'd say it was good foreplay, but 30 seconds of heaven just wasn't my cup of coffee. (Not sure how many people will understand what I said, but okay.)
Coming to the songs, well, Tere Rashke Qamar is my all time favourite song right now. And why wouldn't it be? It is such an amazing song. But apart from this song, I didn't like any other song from this movie, they were a waste of time and in quick intervals too.
And how can I forget to talk about the end? The end that was NEVER THERE... After a super long action sequence, everything is suddenly all white due to the sand and then it cut to fade and then it is just the four of them whiling away as everything was over. But how? What the fuck happened to Ileana? To Vidyut? Where the fuck is the END?
The whole climax was bad to a level that I haven't seen since a long time now. This just hit a new low for me, which I didn't think I could hit. There was the white sand just flying so much every where that it made everything so unclear and bad.
There also were so many minute details and stuff that I could see, but I can't really mention everything here now, can I?
But I can mention one thing, and that is one of Sanjay Mishra's dialogue that I absolutely loved, (You'll have some context to it if you watch the movie.) While talking to Emraan he says, "Tum akele nahi ho, tum jaise bahut saare chutiye hai pyaar mein." and I find that to be very trye on a reality level.
Anyway, I think this is about it with my view on Baadshaho, if any of you does end up watching it, do let me know as to what is your take on the movie in the comments section.
