Just saw " Rocket Singh " .....
I must say it was one of the better movies o come out of the YRF factory ( Yash Raj ). This is not to say that it is a great movie...my views on YRF movies are that they should not have been made. The only reason their films were hits were because there was no one during the 90s who raised the bar and these people dont bother about such things. To give you an example...just the other day caught the last 10-15 minutes of 'Mujhse Dosti Karoge". This is probably a 2002-3 movie and the climax of the movie was the proverbial unintentional sindoor falling from the temple alter onto the heroines head in a clean red line !!! I am glad that now there are good movies which make people realize how bad the yrf movies generally are.
Back to rocket singh.....cant help of a better analogy...that a dog chasing a car. The movie was like that....good to watch until th dog caught up with the car...it then has no clue of what to do with the car. Same thing here. For the most part it was interesting enouh for us to watch it and then the dog caught it..and the movie did not know how to end...and they have made a hash out of it. That said..it is still a decent move with some cheesy lines...' risk to spiderman ko bhi lena padta hai...hum to salesman hai'.
overall a 6/10....have fun watching the dog chase !!
