Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl - ALL REVIEWS HERE - Page 7

I don't think anyone can understand my extent of excitement for this movie (except Preeti ) even though I knew that it wont be as good as BBB, so I went in having no expectation and just went with the thought of having fun and watching Ranveer & Anushka, who obviously are the show stealers :D.
The movie is NOTHING like BBB but still entertains and is quite fun. The first half is amazing with Ranveer conning the three girls and then Anushka entering. Parineeti has the most appealing role out of the 3 since its quite like Shruti Kakkar and hence, she is the best out of the three. The second half slows down a little with the love track but its fun to watch how the girls are conning Ranveer Anushka lights up the screen everytime she appears and needless to say that she's a natural. You actually feel excited seeing her on-screen and some of her scenes are funny esp her entrance scene aftwer Jazba and the hotel scene Ranveer is charming and super HOT as Ricky Bahl and acts amazingly and does make all his characters vary from each other. Even though he's a conman but you can't help but fall in love with him Dippanita was good too, quite a smart character. Aditi plays a simple and sweet girl and is very likeable and cute. Parineeti was cute especially when she keeps getting jealous of Ishika Her dialogues were cute too!
Ranveer and Anushka have such amazing chemistry They are a treat to watch together and I loved their scenes together, made the movie worth it. Parineeti and Ranveer were cute too. Their scenes were cute.
The songs are great with Thug Le being the best but I was sad to see that it came at last Jazba was great fun and Anushka brought so much freshness to the song. Aadat se majboor was good too with nice cheorography and Jigar da tukda was funny LOL but quite nice and Parineeti is a nice dancer. And I looved looved the background music especially the one which said "Bloody Kameena"
Overall, a nice, fun and a good timepass watch. Go in expecting a good entertainer and you shall get exactly that. Forget the fact that its the same director and team as BBB because then you will get disappointed Its not anything never-seen-before but still has its own charm. Obviously you dare not miss it if you're a Anushka or Ranveer fan

Low opening was expected. The movie barely had any promotions going on plus there wasnt much hype in media or tv either... The movie budget is not much so it wont be hard to recover plus music is hit😃

Wow go Parineeti Chopra :) she's getting rave reviews! Happy for her! Might catch this film.

Ranveer and Anushka probably did this movie cause Aditya Chopra wrote the story. They probably couldn't refuse. I will still give Ranveer a chance cause he certainly can act. I hope his next movie turns out better and he actually does a action film cause it would suit him much better than a love story kind.

Devika Bhagat wrote this movie?? No wonder the script is crap. I'm yet to see this woman write a strong, credible script in ANY medium...be it TV or movies...

BBB had Habib Faisal writing the script as well I think...that's the difference.

Watched it this afternoon. For a brief non-spoilery review: absolute chick flick, make time for the movie if you simply want to relax, sit back and unwind. It's nothing that will blow you out of the water, but a very decent time pass. Much more bearable than some 'blockbusters' for sure. If you're a fan of either Ranveer or Anushka, you'll find it decent too.

Nice review, Fatty...dedicated phangurl checking out the movie first day first show?? Kya baat hai :P

This Devika Bhagat can't ever write a good script...ALL her scripts have been half-baked...she wrote the script for Aisha as well as for Mahi Way...superficiality rules in her scripts.

BBB had real heart.

Ranveer said in one of his interviews too that Maneesh Sharma had worked with and developed BBB for so long that he knew and believed in it like the back of his hand, whereas with LVRB he was working with a script that was pretty much thrust into his hands, so he was in an uncertain territory. I agree with what Mayumi has said...the only reason LVRB was made and is so mediocre too is because YRF wanted to instantly cash in on the unexpected success of BBB and the entire team associated with it. Jhatt patt they put something together with one person coming up with the story, one writing the screenplay, another writing the dialogues, and no surprises that it ended up being paltry. They'll be lucky enough to recover the costs and make maybe some profits, but the movie is pretty much stagnant in terms of growth and benefits to Ranveer, Anushka, and even Maneesh Sharma.

Yeah it was pretty obvious from the promos only just how much "thought" went into this movie...from music, to story/script whatever it is...it was clearly intended to cash in on BBB quickly and this is what happens when you try to put together a movie like Maggi 2 minute noodles.

Hopefully Ranveer-Anushka get better material in their future projects...cuz clearly mere chemistry can't salvage a movie...BBB was fresh cuz of it's cleverly written witty script as well. And YRF seems to be in love with Devika Bhagat when the woman is yet to write any decent script...sab sifarishi kaam chalte hain😆
