Love story that tries hard but fails to at least melt my heart....

Rating: 5/10 (5 August 2009)

Alright, so I heard a lot of hype and good reviews about this movie and people warned me to watch this with a tissue roll beside me....I finally decided to watch the movie last night and man was I disappointed....
The film starts with a cute young guy hanging on wheel ride for a girl to ask her out and on top of it, he doesn't even know her just met her.How many of us guys would do something so freakish in real life.From that point onwards I knew things aren't gonna get any good and they didn't.It went the typical way of boy and girl in love but family disagrees due to class differences, the plot so overly used in Bollywood cinema. I figured out that old couple was in fact Noah and Allie pretty early in the movie so the suspense of who Allie would chose didn't excite me either and were we supposed to cry because the old lady couldn't remember her hubby...they had three children and it seems lived pretty much of there lives together happily until she starts forgetting things, give me a break, what about "50 first dates" (Adam Sandler) that was more tragic as there she forgot her love everyday, thus that "pain" wasn't painful enough for my heart to bust into tears.....and that cheesiest ending of dying together was like icing on the cake in a sarcastic way....she wasn't even diagnosed with any disease that could kill her then why she died along with him(he was a heart patient so his death was understandable) what are the odds you die with the one you love at the same time, unless its deliberate, on the same bed.
Direction was okay, Script was the main culprit here.... Two thumbs down, go watch "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind" instead or Bollywood classic "Devdas" .
