OK PACKAGING GREAT PRODUCT.

 The following opinions are my own so if anyone feels bad or hurt, I don't care pal !!
Also during the making of this blog no animals or aliens were harmed. Any resemblance so someone alive or dead is purely co-incidental so please free to comment to share your opinions with us if any.

As in my earlier blog, we were closing the gap on "Hollywood" (hahahahaha) but here comes an different Political flick "SHANGHAI" based on the book "Z". From the director Dibakar Bannerjee who has previously done work like "OYE LUCKY LUCKY OYE", "KHOSLA KA GHOSLA"and "LSD" which were undoubtedly great. But this time He went a little inch down with the movie, some where "I felt". The title SHANGHAI has done justice to the movie script as the Politicians who are highly educated (hahaha) trying to make a city like Shanghai which is called IBP( Indian Business Park) and things start going haywire with the arrival of an activist. 


Lot of time has been taken to lay the foundation and build character according to the demand of the script but unfortunately "WE" like a little fast movies where Salman punches, and the villain falls 10 feet far from the hero and then he takes the girl in his drugged ginormous arms and fly's away(please don't ask me how he did that). People during the movie were going to loo's and smoke cause frankly even I felt that a lot of time had been put in building the stage for the finale.

HUMKA KA PASAND AAWA !!!!

1. Great story, amazing direction and very good performances by the actors.
2. Really nice twists and turns.
3. The movie is like a circle where it comes back to the start and you figure out why everybody's life in the movie is interlinked.
4. Slow, but worth the wait.

HUMKA KA PASAND NAAHI AAWA!!!

1. No background score and also the song "KHUDAYA" has not been filmed in the movie or maybe Vishal & Shekhar's  instruments were busy on some other project, who knows!!!.
2. Should have started the twists and and turns a little earlier so that the people wouldn't have left the theater so soon.
3. A little background should be shown for each character rather than in a way of narration in the screenplay because we are more visual than kinetic or auditory.

Many things to go on and on about but I'm not going to bore you I'll leave that to your better half'(if you have one, heheheheheh) 
All in all a great movie, which other directors should learn from next time they take a project, which is worth the money you pay for so please catch it before it is out of the theaters. And no Dibakar Banerjee has not payed me to blog this also if he would have I wouldn't have taken the money cause I am very respectful that way (hahahahaha).

Toh Aapko Kya Pasand aawa aur ka nahi aawa ?????????? please do share !!
