Thought i'd try this film out as i haven't seen many foreign language films before, especially Punjabi ones. And i have to say that i was stunned by how godawful this film was. I wasn't expecting a masterpiece by any metric, but the entire film felt like a joke, like i was being pranked.
For a start, the film is unintentionally hilarious on many fronts, including the soundtrack which is intrusively loud and the lyrics to the songs are comedically terrible ('What is happening? What is happening? What is happening?' Indeed! WTF is actually happening??). The story was both threadbare and didn't make much sense, the acting was laughable with everyone either absurdly over-the-top or in a coma, and the director thought he was cool by making almost every character walk in slllloooo
-mootiiiooon constantly even when doing something as mundane as pouring a cup of water.
The story and characters didn't hold my attention and i didn't care how it ended. I saw another review saying they were on the edge of their seat. Yes, i'l admit i was too, desperate for the credits to roll so i can do a Usain Bolt impersonation from my seat to the exit.
Dire!!! Avoid this garbage at all costs unless you want your sanity tested.
