The Vigil Idiot: Happy New Year
Here's the thing, director Farah Khan. I get that not all movies are meant to adhere to logic. And I get that spoofs aren't meant to be made fun of. But I also know that you don't get to use those lines of defence when a large chunk of your three-hour film is all melodrama and no spoof. If I'm expected to take a lot of it seriously, I'm taking all of it seriously! Maybe it's not fair of me but how fair is it that you made us sit through three hours (!!) of Shah Rukh Khan (as gang leader Charlie), Deepika Padukone (as legswali Mohini) and those other guys (Abhishek Bachchan, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani and the chap who is probably being disowned by Naseeruddin and Ratna Pathak Shah as you read) trying to execute possibly the worst heist to be put on screen since Players?
