Surprisingly good movie from India

Rating: 2/10 (18 February 2006)

Indian movies tend to be too pathetic, with unrealistic song and dance sequences; the lead actor killing hundreds of bad guys and politicians. This movie comes as a good escape from such stereotypes.
The current generation of people don't believe in traditional values which has been one of the reason for India's relative underdevelopment. This is very obvious from the nature of the lead characters. The first half motors along, with the lives of a bunch of happy friends, who roam around without any purpose in life. The second part is better where the director shows the confusion in their minds when they hear that one of their friend gets killed in an accident. This confusion leads to vulnerability as they try to find a reason in killing the person responsible for the accident.
The beginning of the movie, when the British writer 'Sue' meets the lead characters and the next half hour of movie is poor. Also it seems a bit odd as to how a defense minister can be killed by assassins in bicycle. The ending needs some improvement, and it does not seem believable as to how you can go on air in a national radio station without any moderation.
Overall this movie is good, considering that the average movie coming our of India is of worst quality. But its not as good as the ratings suggests. Hence I have given a rating of just 2, to complement for the biased ratings.
