  • The rating must be a joke, one of the worst films in years

    I rarely write reviews it's been ages since the last one but am writing this to vent out some frustration. To think this film currently has a 6.3 rating and generally favourable reviews elsewhere is really strange. There is booze, sex and drugs but you need something of substance to make even a half decent film, this doesn't even come close.

    Acting is poor, girls are largely annoying and there is nothing happening whatsoever, it makes no sense, it just dwells on the over importance of spring break, there is no character development and it's a total waste of time, I was bored. It plods along pointlessly for an hour gets decent for 10 minutes and finishes off with a meaningless ending.

    I haven't seen After Earth and yes it may be disappointing but it will never be this bad, it's a shame a film like that would get such bad reviews, I mean at least they have tried something, Spring Breakers doesn't even do that, the plot has more holes than a string vest.

    If I was to think about a top 10 worst films list this would most likely be on it, it is definitely one of the worst I have seen in years I would have gave it a 1 but it does have a catchy soundtrack for the younger crowd, some scenes are well shot and James Franco does pretty well for his part which does however start becoming repetitive like everything else due to the poor script. Very overrated not everyone will agree but I'm sure some will, especially if they have seen or watch after this review.

  • Ya ya it's a classic

    I remembered this film from when i was a kid even up until we were adults me and my brothers, cousins still remembered the classic tune and the ya ya ya ya etc.

    Even so i wasn't quite sure I actually watched the whole film when I was a kid so recently brought the DVD online, yes its a dated movie but I wasn't disappointed this is quality Indian cinema which still deserves some recognition today. Govinda's a class act although his standards have dropped recently.

    I haven't seen all his films but I'm confident this is still one of his best.

  • Average Actioner

    I was quite looking forward to this and ignored the reviews because I like my 'masale' bollywood movies from time to time and it did have Nana in it. However, I was slightly disappointed to find nothing new story wise which I'm sure has similarities to Bobby Deol's Badal. Nothing quite stands out in the film so it's understandable why it wasn't a hit. Positivies were Nana Patekar who even though needed more screen time in his limited role still managed to nearly save the film with his unique and funny womaniser character and the actress, who I saw for the first time was simply stunning. Now I have found out Shriya Saran is big in the south but hopefully she'll get to test her acting skills with more Hindi commercial films. Overall, decent performances all round making it good timepass giving is slightly better than 5 - 6/10
