Hey People,
My Friend Pinto came up as a wave of fresh air. Simple characters and clichéd plot, nothing extraordinary but still filled with life. MFP is very much like Forrest Gump except that he has no psychological issue. He is just innocent. He is good hearted and is rewarded by life for his qualities.
As I said, My Friend Pinto has drawn subtle references from Forrest Gump, at least as a viewer I feel so. Pinto's fundas are quoted by his Mamma. He doesn't judge people by their life style or social status. He stands by his relationships. The story is about an extraordinary night in a chaotic Mumbai where a Goan is struck. Everyone he meets bump into each other and every third person has some issue with other. Highly clichéd but very potent when one intends to use it as USP. To some extent it worked in this case.
2011 is a very promising year. Many impressive movies. Lately, Ra.One came and after initial hiccups won the market. It’s an visual treat. However, doesn't work much on content part and have got scathing comments about the story line or the lack of it. I hope Rockstar would deliver the goods its promising.
Wishes
Sujoy
