A look at why SAAT KHOON MAAF failed *SPOILER* - Page 2

Aseem Chhabra's review was spot-on. He is the one who recommended Band Baaja Baaraat and I loved it. His movie columns are effortless.

I was so excited to see this film and now I don't even feel like watching it....too many bad reviews. Yikes! Only dhobi ghat and NOKJ has been good so far. I hope Zindagi na mile dobara does not disappoint. But with Hrithik and Katrina in it, I wouldn't be surprised.

Is NOKJ good? It looked forced and superficial from the promos. I didn't bother to watch it. I will trust your view on it. 😊

NOKJ was good, but Aamir was better. If you've seen Aamir, you wont be as impressed with the director's recent outing.

i read raja sen's review on this one....and i keep thinking what if sussana was played by tabu or a waheeda rahaman or a penelope cruz....the mere thought of it makes me wanna desperately watch the film....i dunt think priyanka's performance was bad...it was quite good...but its not up to the calibre of what one expects from such a fantastic role....it truly could have been the best performance of the decade/past few decades...it was such a special role.....but somehow...the performance didnt match up to it...just like the film which i felt could have been soooo much better....

not a bad film at all....but i wouldn't call it good either....i'd say it was a good effort...but the result?? well...not quite good...it wasnt really a satisfying experience....but novel yes...

Vidya's scenes were good, I think she nailed her part. The whole media involvement in the case was melodramatic; Rani's character was OTT too. Either way, I thought it was one of the better movies of the year but no where near as good as Aamir.

I agree with Vidya scenes. She was good and restrained but Rani not only OTT, but she doesn't have the persona of some fiery journalist. I understand now why she was given foul lingo in movie. But movie can be seen for time pass along with other activities.

Not a bad movie. Just an average one. Performance wise PC is strictly ok. let down because I had huge expectations from Vishal.
