Do you dislike any movie if the story goes against your values? - Page 9

Life in a metro goes against what I would believe in still I liked the movie.. And I do not believe in love shove or marriage (with due respect to those who believe in) I feel these are all momentary feelings if it doesnt involve your blood relations or thick friendship... still I like to view movies on these topics because these movies create a world different to mine...

Yes and No.

I consider myself pretty open minded about many things and what happens in a fictional setting rarely offends my morals. I have seen many movies and tv shows where the characters have done so many things that I wouldn't support, agree on or understand but that didn't make me hate the movie. It doesn't mean I support cheating, killing, raping, incest, etc etc. but If the movie maker succeeds in making the audience see the character's mindset then I can't hate the movie.

But, at the same time, I have disliked movies based on true stories where the director or the writer or whoever has white washed or tried to justify the character's wrong doings. Historical movies are a pet peeve for me at times because many of BW historical movies try to make historical personalities who have done a lot of wrong seem like some epic love hero whose love is a love you have never seen before. This character might have done a lot of horrible things which I do not agree with and he/she is a real person who lived in our world so trying to white wash their actions and white washing fictional character are two different things for me so that would make me dislike the movie.

I have also disliked a few movies because I really couldn't wrap my mind around the character's actions or motives. Ram-Leela is one example where I couldn't justify their lust filled relationship as love and I definitely couldn't support the characters in the movie thus making me dislike it (it might also be the fact I was forced to watch that movie like 3 times! )

ditto.Ramleela failed to show love it was all lust so when they died for each other it was not convincing.though I have doult on original romeo juliet too they barely knew each other throughout the story and romeo went to the party to persue a girl he likes from a long time and sees juliet there and fell in love [/QUOTE

I didn't like the original Romeo-Juliet either but it was all about love at first sight so I guess, sorta understandable but the ending where they died still seems silly for me. However, Ramleela was lust at first sight and no one can deny that, all their conversations were centred around getting into each other's pants.

I do'nt blv in love at first sight so it felt silly to mebut ramleela totally was about lust. I never understood when did they even fall in love.Lust is a part of love but ramleela was all lust between two horny youngstars🥱

kank could be a good movie given proper direction.It actually showed that people do'nt cheat just cause their souse is a jerk,for a relation to work compatibility is must.Rani and shahrukh's characters were complex people,with the tendency to analise and overthink,their spouses were too simple and basic thinkers for them.intellectual and emotional comaptibility plays a vital role in longterm.Your spouse can be the best behaved person but if u find his thinking too basic and not on par with your way of thinking,you start feeling suffocated. I did'nt like htpmy didi is my world I would never involve myself with her fiancee whatever the situation isbut that's strictly my pov.It was a cute film though.I do'nt like triangles involving sisters basically.

I would have loved it , had Shilpa's character Shikha would have divorced that looser .(Kay Kay Menon's character). How could she forgive him?
