Jhoom Barabar Jhoom Audience Reviews

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Peter Young I love Bollywood films. Ravishing, well-invested musicals, song and dance, dialogues which are larger than life, wonderful actors, strong characters. The song numbers have been an artistic tradition Hindi films, and what particularly amazes me about all these films is the complete irrelevance of the song numbers to the film's story itself (unless it's a film like Dil To Pagal Hai, where the music is part of the script).I think Jhoom Barabar Jhoom is a brave attempt to make a film with the songs being part of the screenplay. But even then, it just doesn't work. Why? Because there is NO screenplay. The entire film is a big dance show. And it shouldn't be like this. When there are no songs, the film consists of silly jokes and plastic "acting". Some sequences are so ridiculous that you start hating anyone who's been ever involved with this film. It is intended to be funny and crazy, which is a good purpose, but this film manages to be neither this nor that and instead, it sadly ends up being a big silly show. I do admit that the songs are well danced and catchy, but they become tiresome at some point, mainly because most of them are actually the same song in different versions.The acting (not that it can be called acting in this case) is bad. Abhishek is annoying and miscast. Pretentious performance. Preity, an actress I like immensely, is her usual bubbly and vivacious self, but here, somehow lifeless. The fact that a great actress like Preity could even think of appearing in this film makes me want to slap her. Bobby and Lara are terrible. They ham, overact, and even in the dance numbers get overshadowed by the leading stars (at least here they make some sense). Lara is particularly horrible as a prostitute with her fake French accent. All in all, I do recommend to watch it if you intend to go and dance through the entire film. Quite a special watch buhaaaa...
kcunnin2 I have to disagree with the previous comment. I didn't find the film to be "crap" as the user so delicately put it. I found it engaging and just plain fun. The story isn't supposed to be taken seriously as the tone suggests. It is a lighthearted look at a "what if" situation. From the way Abishek and Preity's characters tell their off-beat love stories to the way the movie climaxes, it is one funny moment after another. The musical numbers are very stylized and full of humor as well, with Abishek chasing Lara Dutta and his "Ticket to Hollywood" and Bobby and Preity staying away from the "Kiss of Love" which has a very Moulin Rouge feel to it. I found myself laughing every time Abishek said,"I got class!" And who can forget Bobby's "I hate you!" Jhoom Barabar Jhoom is a zany, off-beat love story with some great visuals and a very creative way of telling the story. I loved it and, in fact, bought it. Do not watch it if you're looking for a typical melodramatic look at love, but if you have something a little different in mind, pop this one in and enjoy the ride!
kpatel0809 I loved this movie, it was super funny. The movie didn't show in NY and I really wanted to watch it so I found out you can even watch it online - Streaming. Supercool!. I watched it online at watchindia.TV Amazing movie Amazing site. Also this movie has one of the greatest song clips that have been filmed in a long time. It was shot at the Waterloo station with Amitahb swinging and singing. Prita, as usuall, is at her prime and I could stare at her even without a word coming out of her mouth. She is so so so beautiful. Anyway I loved this movie and recommend it. Like I said you can see this on watchindia.TV in streaming at high quality.
virindra Once I wrote, as a Bobby Deol fan, that he only had to play in a Yash Chopra movie. Because Bobby is a great actor, and Yash Chopra makes good movies. But I was wrong, yes Bobby Deol acts very well, but his part in this movie is too small. His entrance was great, but the special effects were horrible! Yes, Yash Chopra can make a horrible movie! Abishek proved in Kabhi Alvida that he can act very well. In this movie he did not act good. It was very bad! He could not make his character alive. It was like a painting that did not come out of his paint.Preity Zinta still is an annoying actress. The combination Zinta and Anishek was not good. The story between these tho was too predictable.It was funny that Amitabh Bachchan played in a song in this movie. It was like a good joke. But this joke was repeated several times. Then it ain't funny anymore.The actress Lara Dutta I guess was also annoying. She reached the annoying level of Zinta. Her accent was terrible. I didn't see the whole movie. I put the DVD out en I started to watch Cheeni Kum. Maybe tonight I am going to watch the end of this movie.With saying this, I must add that I never have seen a bad movie like this from Yash Chopra before.
