Year of sh*tty Duds | Under Lens

What to say, man! What a sad year this has been for Hindi films. Rather for the filmgoer. I for one think that industry-wallahs think of us as morons who’ll scramble for to watch anything decorated with stars and … well nothing else.

 

2010 has seen duds like Veer, Khatta Meetha, Anjaana Anjaani and my favorite shitty movie of the year I Hate Luv Storys. (Okay, don’t get angry Mr. Reader-of-this-post  there were more like Pyar Impossible(Uday, with you truly pyaar is impossible), Chance Pe Dance(which had no dance),  Teen Patti(hey what was happening ?!), Paathshala(Zzzzzz… ), Phoonk 2(You could have donted the money to charity RGV), Aisha (Wasn’t it supposed to be Jane Austen and NOT Sex and the City …. aarrrgh), Lafangey Parindey , Knock Out, Kajraare(when did this release :O), Break Ke Baad(give me a break), Khatta Meetha (Shout-your-lungs-out comedy))

 

Veer- Year started off with the big budget Veer penned by mighty Khan, Sallu himself. It was pretty much a cringe fest. Anil Gadar Sharma thought his shit would be accepted once more. “Wait a minute”, Gadar Sharma might add, “at least Sallu didn’t do his Hello Brother humour trick here.” Yeah but you made Sohail do that for us, you moron.

 

Anjaana Anjaani- Well you know what, I wish at least one of the protagonist had succeeded in committing suicide before the story began. At least we would have been spared all the trouble L

 

Prince- So-bad-it-is-good category. Vivek made sure we had a good time. With a premise this silly they couldn’t have possibly thought that we’ll take this seriously. With seriously funny dialogs and some actually good action sequences, it was pretty bad.

 

Hisss- For years we have been hearing about Mallika’s Hollywood venture, and then it came. It went off theaters before we could say FLOP. This sure is one movie we wouldn’t misss…

 

I Hate Luv Storys- Imran you’re the man. When it comes to not-acting while trying to act, you’re the go-to guy. This guy didn’t have ANY expressions in the most crucial scenes of the film. Sonam was Oscar material compared to Imran. With a plot that was paper thin and silly that eventually did sacrilege to Dil Chahta Hai climax. My Dear Imran, You single handedly made it worst of the year in my books (And will somebody care to explain HOW this went on to be a hit L )

 

I know I might have missed out on many of your NOT-favorite movies of the year in this post but that is what comments section is there for. Vent out your anger, we’re listening.

 

PS- Kites some might feel  wasn’t great, but come on compared to greats like IHLS it was heavenly. Moreover it did work for me so no bashing for Papa Roshan venture.
