It's like sitting around a fire, listening to a great story-friends you root for, a villain you fear, and moments that make you laugh, cheer, and ache a little. Decades later, it still feels familiar, warm, and unforgettable. The dialogues continue to rule pop culture. Not just a movie-pure Bollywood swag. A great cast, unforgettable characters, and epic performances. A true '70s classic, and an example of how Indian and American films were made back then in the '70s which is my favorite decade of cinema. Wish movies were still made like this today...

A chaotic, hyperactive blur that tries too hard to shock. Harrelson and Lewis are wild, sure, but the film ends up feeling more noisy than clever. By the end, it's less 'satire' and more 'headache with a soundtrack.' Great cast and great performances, but the storytelling feels weird. It has that Tarantino-style vibe in the writing, but Oliver Stone seems to miss the mark.

Two friends trying to figure out life over too many glasses of wine - awkward, funny, a little sad, and very real. Giamatti and Church make their stupid, honest mistakes feel true to who they are: where one's driven by sexuality and the other's driven by emotions. The moments stay warm, and the whole film goes down smooth, like a good pour on a rough day.
