Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
sofia I'm a late watcher of the movie, all I will say I understand how they wanted to make the movie, what came out was complete rubbish, Direction 2/10, Dialogues 0/10 Script 1/10 Songs 2/10 Story 0/10, Amitabh Bacchan's acting was very confusing, 3/10, Jackie Shroff was clearly better than Amitabh Bacchan, 5/10, Javed Jeffery 7/10, Gulshan Grover 8/10, Seema Biswas 9/10, Models 5/10, seriously katrina Kaif in the movie is just a pretty face nothing else...was it Salman khan bought her into the limelight or was she really that pretty...? For heaven sake Where's the acting...? The models in the movie just proved models can't act...lolSome of the vulgarity in the movie wasn't necessary at all, Zeenat aman has chosen the role which I wouldn't look at it twice if I was ever offered it, even junior artists would think twice...if I ever had to re make this movie it will be a life time block buster just by learning the mistakes from the whole movie itself script writer/ dialogues cameraman and the rubbish director...Ayesha Shroff if you ever go into production again make sure huni you do your homework, cause the movie Boom was not worth releasing or risking your house and life over...I'm surprised Jackie Shroff as superstar went ahead with releasing the movie when he clearly knew the Indian audience...so therefore Ayesha Shroff you are not just bolay like Jackie calls you, cause Jackie is dumb and your dumber...but Tiger Shroff your son rocks he will definitely replace the khan's few years to come, but please Ayesha don't make another disastrous movie with Tiger by risking your house again that will cost Tigers career the way it did to Jackie's Career...Back to the movie, when Jackie was pointing the fingers on the models boobs was disgusting it was disrespectable to women...you could had done that scene in a different and dignified way...Amitabh Bacchan looked complete pathetic...Javed Jaffery and seema Biswas came out shining the rest star cast appeared confused...I decided to watch this movie when I watched koffee with Karan, Jackie Shroff's Mrs Ayesha was talking about the movie Boom...bless her she was ever so emotional about the whole process of the movie before and after...If the movie ever had to be re made, they would need a better script, Dialogues,DIRECTION and decent realistic character names and actors who can act for sure... then the movie will rock...
TheNecromancer Good God. My eyes.. they still hurt..after being exposed to this movie. But the pain is mitigated, for my ears hurt even more, after having to listen to some of the most atrocious dialogue ever uttered.I'd like to consider myself to be fairly tolerant. I managed to sit through Kaante. Mind you, i did not enjoy the debacle in the least, but I could sit through it. Boom is downright repulsive and ridiculous. I walked into the theater with no expectation and still came out traumatized.I smelt trouble the moment one of the actors appeared on screen and for no rhyme or reason proceeded to say "Tick tock,tick f**king, tock f**king tick" in the most horrendous accent. After that it was all downhill.Acting - Unbelievable. The three models should be banned from acting. For some reason the director decided that it was best that they all put on weird accents. Almost all the dialogue is spoken in english. Apart from amitabh bachan , i can quite safely state that none of the other actors speak english. All the rest of the actors looked confused most of the time. I honestly can't blame them for being at the mercy of a screwball director.Dialogue -Downright annoying. Characters say random things, act like imbeciles on crack. The writer seems to be desperately trying to copy Tarantino's writing style. He comes closer to imitating a drunk moron who's vocabulary doesn't exceed the F word. They use F**K generously and randomly. It never even sounds normal at any point, for all of them have such horrendous accents.Plot - Mind Numbingly bad. It doesnt even pretend to have one. Characters do random things for absolutely no rhyme or reason. Amitabh Bachan throws a female out of a moving car just for the heck of it. Zeenat's role in the movie is even more worse. There are no character arcs. The story is too absurd to be bothered about. To top it off there are plot holes the size of russia.Overview - The movie is annoying, disgusting, repulsive, childish, inane, moronic, absurd, incoherent, retarded,pointless, boring, embarassing.Those are its good qualities.Rating 2/10. What prevents me from giving it a one is the fact that it did have some decent cinematography and production values.
dbanati Going to the movies is a wholesome experience for me. I look forward to the movie as soon I have my tickets booked. I have certain expectations from the movie and I switch off the outside world along with my cellphone as I settle in to watch the movie. This is how I settled down yesterday evening to watch this movie called Boom. The movie promised to have the elusive right mix of oomph and a real story coupled with good actors and behind it all a director who has been threatening to deliver for a long time. The spin-doctors had given good publicity to the movie by making sure that its every round to the censors was well publicised along with the usual comments on whatever happened to freedom of expression and self-censorship.The two hours of the movie passed in a whirl and it was difficult for me to conclude on what was worse- the movie or the audience. I for once pitied the censor board who has to see such junk like this in its raw form and then be criticised for censoring parts of the movie. I also came out of the movie with significant additions to my knowledge bank- I got to know, for example, that a bag of cement costs around 100 rupees or so and can be delivered the next day morning if it ordered around 7pm. How I know is because the person next to me was a cement dealer and obviously likes to conduct his business on the phone in a cinema hall when he is not whistling or nudging his partner everytime he saw a bikini on the screen. In addition, if I missed a double meaning dialogue in the movie then I only had to concentrate on the animated conversation behind me to hear it again amid a thousand giggles. With such wholesome entertainment all around me who wants to see the movie. Not that there was anything in the movie to watch. It's amazing how easily you can go wrong even if you put a bunch of talented actors on screen and some models who can also talk and a woman named Bo Derek thrown in for some more oomph. So much of oomph in that movie that I almost oomphed my way out of the hall! They were traces in the movie that reminded me of Pulp Fiction or even Sex and the City, which are both amazing productions in their own right and if only he had copied them we would have got everything we wanted. But no sir, we are too much into the East meets West syndrome these days. East meets West and takes a dive into the Pacific Ocean never to show itself again. Atleast not in the form of Boom! If this is what fusion of cultures is about I am all for pure breeds. I cannot imagine that I paid money to see a movie like this. I won't see it even if someone offered me money for this. The movie is like an orchestra in action and everything is being played out of tune and what is worse is that you can recognise what they are trying to play and that is driving you even more crazy.As for the crowd, what can I say, it deserved the movie as much as the movie deserved the crowd. Every show of skin and every raunchy dialogue were greeted with such cheers that you would assume that these women had landed in their laps! All this while cellphones were buzzing in the hall and everybody was talking to everybody else telling them they were sitting in a hall watching a movie- and what's up?Please go and see this movie and maybe it will help you appreciate how bad movie making can get. Its always nice to see the worst so we can better appreciate the good.As for the director and producer - BOOM BOOM!!
ajy1 I just saw this movie last night and really enjoyed it. While I was with some people who disliked it, I felt that the film was provocative and a really gutsy move at being anti-Bollywood. I'm not Indian and I saw the film in NYC without subtitles (it was a mix of Hindi and English). While the film wasn't perfect (and the last third of the movie really sank it downhill), there were some unique moments (the song-and-dance number, a lot of the wide-lens cinematography, Big B and Jackie Shroff's disturbing and brazen performances). And I really felt that I didn't know what was going to happen next from scene to scene. Heck, during much of it, I felt like this guy was reinventing the crime genre black comedy much like Quentin Tarantino did with "Reservoir Dogs." I do wish that the director was a little more disciplined but I guess if he was, he wouldn't be crazy enough to launch what seems like drug-addled, adrenaline-fueled imagery. A definite must-see in my book and one that even a Western audience may appreciate in spots.
