Synopsis
A love triangle revolving around the lives of a filmmaker, a thief and their mutual love interest.
A love triangle revolving around the lives of a filmmaker, a thief and their mutual love interest.
A film drenched in cigarette smoke and melancholic happiness. Characters feel like they could disappear at any time, entire places feel like hallucinations. Conversations lead to everywhere or nowhere. A strange feeling of knowing how the story will go yet knowing nothing at all. Feeling every emotion through the film yet feeling nothing at all. Being the best movie ever and also the worst. Roy has everything i love in film and also everything i dislike- it's simply one of the most frustrating films I've ever seen-yet i love it.
The film starts off as a a never ending road, an ever growing landscape, Vikramjit Singh took a canvas that never ends and painted his film but as the narrative…
Behold the most misunderstood and unnecessarily hated movie ever made.
Roy has some of the most breathtaking cinematography and beautiful dialogues in modern Bollywood. It also has a very powerful scene which reminded me of the ethereal dance sequence in Burning. On my recent rewatch, I made it a point to note down the time stamps when great dialogues show up and hopefully I'll soon compile them and further my case of going absolutely out on a limb to call this an exceptional movie.
Trash.
Just watched it because of Ranbir and I loved the album, but in the end, that also felt like...
Oh my god! How bad It can be? I thought.
Damn me. It was unbearable.
No doubt the writer/director haven't made any movie after this.
0.5 star for all their hardwork and 0.5 for songs.
I'm respectfully asking arjun rampal and Ranbir Kapoor to have a threesome with me.
Very evident how Ranbir Kapoor took himself a tad bit too seriously as the connoisseur of ‘ahead of its time, pretentious ’ breed of cinema in the 2010s.
Product placement was too good.
Underrarted Gem Of Bollywood ~ A Masterpiece Movie Beyond 10 Years Ahead Of Time.
Thoughts:
1. Celebrating Independence Day with Roy lmao
2. Ok but why did Kabir name his thief films Guns Part 1, 2, and 3
3. What writer in this age would willingly use a typewriter
4. Showing Kabir struggling to write something for 45 seconds straight is so real
5. Everyone and everything in this film is so aesthetic (especially Aisha's film screening scene). All the actors looked their best here
6. This is just a continuous flow of poetic, philosophical dialogues 🥰
7. The chokehold this soundtrack had on all of us in 2015... man I'm nostalgic
8. Jacqueline was so good here, what happened to her career??
9. How did I just notice the Awara poster in Chittiyaan…
obviously not the best film starring ranbir in 2015 about how stories find themselves in us and vice-versa. i guess ranbir strikes somewhere between mr. a and the driver but the emotional weight simply isn't with him, it's with the Cool Dude Director and an Indie Film Director love story instead. even if i appreciate a healthy portrayal of the industry and artists, it's just too self-serious and even boring at times. tho everyone's ramp walking here with fire af fits 😎
watched this in my dream. i’m pretty sure the actual film is nothing like that but the dream one sucked so like….. idc
If only they casted a female for the lead actress role
