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...
... View MoreI had earlier seen Bombay boys by Kaizad Gustad, hence this prompted me to rent out the video for Boom. The name itself is pretty unusual for a bollywood movie and the cast is the best that bollywood has to offer. Jackie as "Medium" again shows Jackie's potential as a versatile actor and Javed Jaffery as "Boom Shankar" is his usual eccentric self. No wonder Kaizad decided to name the movie over his character, Javed Jaffery lends the comical edge to the otherwise dark-sided movie. 3 gangsters bade, chote and medium rule the fashion industry helped by boom shankar. In a world where everyone is being terrorised by the 3 brothers 3 models are forced to work for them. Taking advantage of their beauty and charms, supplemented by their utter distrust of each other and aided by Boom shanker - these 3 models fool everyone including Boom shankar himself. Madhu Sapre along with the Kaif lend the bitchish touch the models character, showing why beauty is skindeep. As expected this movie was treated like a shocker by the indian cinema houses, because by any bollywood standard this movie is ground breaking. For the simple reason that it does not follow the nuances of a commercial bollywood film and follows on Quinton Tarantino's path i vote this movie as a must see for every hindi film critic.
... View MoreGoing 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!!
... View MoreWell so finally we are here. After having waited for so long for this movie the only thing you get is frustration. The Movie lacks everything from direction to storyline to dialogues.What did Mr. Kaizad thought when he started this project? how could you possibly impress the indian audience with the extremely obscene dialogues (which was supposed to be humorous)....Uff! I cannot go on with the review... it's truly the worst movie of my life and those 2 hours the worst spent.
