C'mon Indians, learn a little discernment!

Rating: 5/10 (31 October 2010)

If you are gonna love such a HUGE piece of trash, and one of your reasons is nationalism - at least have the good sense to reject the completely perverted way this film insisted on STILL having to be looked at from a British perspective - (McKinley, first, conquering your ar ses, then contemporary times, that not hot, just white, Sue, teaching and inspiring you . . . like the g darned Brits weren't enough the protagonists the FIRST time around!) If you think this movie has a lot of merit, you are unconsciously supporting your dependence on EXTERNAL influences AND PERSPECTIVES - (profoundly insecure, in terms of nationalism. WAKE UP.) Anyway, I hate nationalism and I hate India's caste system and that you have the worst distribution of wealth and income in the world. I am not a racist. THAT IS WHY, HOWEVER, THE (PREDOMINANTLY) "ELITE" INDIANS WHO WAVE THE FLAG HERE, well, only a minority of you have a decent command of the language and/or deeper aesthetic and/or political understanding. Once again, call me a racist if you will, but it is the (ignorant) elites that I hate, not Indians.
And all that politic diatribe was not at all the very worst thing about this film. It was a TERRIBLE, WAY TOO LONG, film clip. Of the thesis about how this film was wrong, bad, not much more needs to be said than it was an over-glorified, horribly drawn-out, badly made, film clip. And of course, many or most of you have been brainwashed by Bollywood's lack of talent. NOT because it is Indian, but because it is India's Elites, stupid (lazy, pathetic, too much money, little know how) way of keeping the mass of billions, well, stupid and "happy", (we all want some opium, huh? Nationalists, from India to the USA want a flag smothered in Opium that they can beat off while passing out to!). The best of Bollywood only reaches the level of the worst of Hollywood, in about 99% of cases, or thereabouts. Again, I am anti North American Imperialism also, but Hollywood does have some very refined, quality film making. ONE Bollywood film, once, I found good at the time, I can't even remember it because it just wasn't THAT good.
STUPID A RSE CLICHÉS - India's Elite, I SINCERELY HOPE THEY WILL NOT PROTECT YOU FROM THE SEETHING MASSES . . . and that is a nice segue into what was actually good about this film :) I did fully appreciate the subject matter, it had its moments, some of the acting was pretty good, if or when the script, direction, etc. allowed. Hats off to India's Revolutionaries, YOU, I LOVE. The rest can go and stink with your Bollywood daydream turn nightmare.
