Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

gaurav-kukreja666 It starts with a positive and impactful note. A realistic and light- hearted take on actual condition of gangsters and effect of recession on them. After 30 mins, it starts going downhill. Every side character except the 4 gangsters (Anni, Bhai Sahab and 2 fellow gangsters) looks forced, out of context, absurd and meaningless. By the time Neha Dhupia comes on the screen, you would want to switch it off. And once she starts delivering her dialogues, you would want to break the screen. Her character (Munni Madam) is the most cringe-worthy ever. Totally makes this movie another stupid piece of mainstream comedy with no originality. The ending is as unfunny as the later half of the movie, with a wannabe 'happy ending, everyone so happy yay' vibe. Go ahead if you want to get deceived by the ratings. By the end, you would have wasted your two hours on a stupid movie which you would forget in lesser time.

a_2 Nothing about this movie should attract you if you are a selector when it comes to watching a Bollywood movie, but Subhash Kapoor has made a mighty big impression with this incredible story if you have or happen to be watching the ending credits. If there is something called as sensible humor, then this movie draws upon a real world theme and blends it with a tactfully written plot which only gets increasingly entertaining and curious before the perfect finish.The movie draws the audience with true to happen, yet hard to believe state of affairs in village gangs and Anni is a character that sticks like glue right away. While the pristine performances of all not so popular actors are brilliant, the true hero here is the script. Backed by authentic, crackling, and situational dialog's, the movie paces comfortably and makes every scene enjoyable. And if that is not impressive, a few scenes like the YES WE CAN chant and the English class turn this into truly memorable movie watching. Rajat Kapoor is very himself in the role while Neha Dhupia and Amol Gupte are very good. The page turner and the star of the show is Manu Rishi (Anni) and his brilliant performance. His portrayal of aspiration, honesty and comic timing will make you watch this movie again. Sanjay Mishra is over the top again with the character of Bhaisaab.Not plaguing this story with item numbers, unneeded songs or illogical twists makes this a "Diamond" in the golden Bollywood ring!

siddhartha-sharma This a Brilliant movie and deserves all the accolades in the world. The way movie moves from one instance to the other is just flawless, the whole story has a sense to it. I don't know how to put it in words but this movie is such realistic depiction of India that it never feels absurd or impossible. The picturization is so beautiful, the language of characters is so natural, the acting so true that everyone added value to the film. Dhupia looked sexy, better than what she looks with short clothes. Foremost I want to congratulated this little known director for the GREAT effort and tremendous movie. Please know that your Screenplay, writing and Direction has completely blowen away, us - viewers !I hope I could have watched this movie in the theater. Best luck Mr. Kapoor for your future endeavors and I will definitely watch your next movie.Thanks a ton for the entertainment ! Sidds.

namashi_1 Subhash Kapoor's 'Phas Gaye Re Obama' is a golden opportunity, gone wrong due to monotonous writing. Subhash Kapoor excels as a director, but as a writer, he disappoints.When any filmmaker attempts to make a film on a satire, he/she must raise the questions efficiently, and more efficiently should be ready with the answers. But, Over-here, almost everything comes across as half-baked. 'Phas Gaye Re Obama' is an outstanding idea, which begins with a bang, but becomes a bore after a point. The Screenplay repeats itself, and there is no novelty after a point.Subhash Kapoor should've worked on the writing. If the writing was sharper, this film had all that it takes to become a gem, but what finally comes out, disappoints. Cinematography is alright. Performance-Wise: Manu Rishi is effective. Rajat Kapoor is stiff, while Neha Dhupia scores in a supporting role. Sanjay Mishra is good. Amole Gupte gets limited scope.On the whole, it's an opportunity missed! One expected much more!
