7 Khoon Maaf. There was so much potential here but what a waste.

Raajneeti. Combining the Mahabharata with Godfather and adding some desi political masala (e.g. the Gandhi family) was a brilliant idea IMO. Sadly the end result was boring. Shyam Benegal did a much better job at adapting the epic for modern times in Kalyug.

Completely agree and to that list i'd like to add Raavan, as well as Delhi 6.

Kal: word about Rajneeti.Such a boring movie...


DhobhiGhaat and Peepli live..Politically correct or whatever. I think I liked it initially cos m so gullible😡 but honestly when later I thought about it they were not so interesting.

Peepli live was such a waste of time...
I had already watched an episode of Office office long time back which had exactly the same story as Peepli live so was nothing special for me..

Raavan - such gorgeous visuals, edgy soundtrack, a story which lets heaps of character exploration, an intriguing central character, gr8 promos...had mani ratnam worked more on the script and appointed an accomplished actor and NOT AB jnr to play beera, this would have been a gr8 film...the tamil version was flawed too but it was not a disaster because it was Vikram playing beera there...

Saawariya - when i saw the promos,read the synopsis, it all seemed soo interesting...a love story set in a magical nowhere fairytale neon land, 2 newcomers, SLB directing it...i thought it was gonna be amazing...turns out the only amazing thing abt the movie is ranbir...the rest is just

Love aaj kal - i know the movie did well,but i think its imtiaz ali's weakest work to date...The concept was gr8...the contrasting of love in different eras...the 70s and the present...it was the perfect setup for attempting a love story with a difference...
BUT, cringeworthy hinglish dialogues, deepika, slow pace, W*F scenes,lack of any chemistry between the leads,all screwed it up...the best part of the movie was the 70s...which was actually romantic (the leads shared some chemistry)...the "aaj" part of the movie was pathetic...

Other than the ones already mentioned;

Saat Maaf Khoon and My Name is Khan. Both couldn't keep my interest.
