ALADIN - Movie Review : Nobody learned from the mistake called \"Drona\". (Review by Bobby Sing) |
Last year we had a heavy weight fantasy debacle from the banner of Eros Entertainment called “Drona”. And like a child committing the same mistake repeatedly, this year we have a similar kind of forgettable fantasy movie titled “Aladin”, once again from the same prestigious banner of Eros. Wasn’t there even one thinking mind in the team who could see that they were repeating the same horrendous blunder again leading to a big loss, both on financial and goodwill grounds? Wasn’t there any creative person at all, who could point out that “Aladin” was also having the same distasteful ingredients, which were earlier universally rejected in “Drona” in the very first few days of its release? In addition to this, it was really funny to know that the film based on one of the weakest script ever was in reality a product of "Boundscript Motion Pictures".....Looks like they only took care of the outer binding of the script and just forgot to read into the content.

It was your personal review on Aladin, but dear friend every coin has two sides I am on the other side if the said film is bad, and you felt really bad I respect your opinion but any film which is made is with great effort,and money and no one makes a flop film the film which were made brilliantly were flops and GHAR (based on true incident happened near Drive In Theatre the open theatre in Mumbai) was also a flop, but the flop tag does not take anything from the film which was brilliantly made, and there are many examples that films which were badly made were successful and which were made brilliantly.

Hi, As mentioned in my Introduction Text, I am not here to write good about any BAD movie taking into consideration its prodution house, director or actors. I might be the biggest fan of Sir Amitabh Bachchan, but I cannot applaud a poor film only because its featuring my dear Amitabh in it. And yes you have to try & try again until you get success. But one should also know that he cannot scceed in life while travelling towards the North, when the desired destination is actually lying in the South. So even the repeated attmepts have to made in the right direction. I saw an interview of all the artists, director and music directors on the TV and what confidence they had while explaining about "Aladin". But when i saw their actual work, the only thought i had in my mind was "What was that Confidence all about." To end, I would like to mention that even the word "Aladin" makes you think of children and your childhood. But what was there in the movie for the children in the theater. Saying from my personal experiences the kids in the theater were busy playing with their popcorn tubs and drinks rather than looking at "Aladin" running on the screen. Morevoer you gave the examples of GHAR & TAXI NO. 9211, which were well made but could not be that successful. The examples were fine but you cannot keep ALADIN in that category from any angle and the coming days will clearly give you the right picture. One of the recent movie which can be included in that category was "Luck By Chance" But I really enjoyed reading your elaborate comment and even more enjoyed answering it. Keep Writing. |
