F.A.L.T.U - Notepad

F.A.L.T.U

Jacky Bhagnani, Puja Gupta, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi Dir: Remo D'Souza
wogma rating: The keen should rent; else TV (?)
quick review: Because we live in a world so imperfect, FALTU creates an alternate reality. In which they show us a way to make the world perfect. So what if that route itself is as imperfect as the system it's trying to correct? So, while it is lively and fun, FALTU isn't something that'll stay with you after you've walked out of the theaters. Though I think it wanted you to, what with the strong message it tries to convey masked under all that light-heartedness. Oh yeah, and that one brilliant dance performance in the climax.

Plot Summary

Four good-for-nothings manage to land themselves responsible for 300 other good-for-nothings. And then set out to make use out of this waste

What Worked

  • The picturisation of the line "jahaan jail ho gaya", simply brilliant!
  • The coinage "over-educated"
  • The way the SRK-arm-spread is incorporated in the dance in the climax.

What did not

Note: This section simply lists the things that I did not like in this movie. This is not the overall impression about this movie. Please read the full review here

  • How did 300 people find the website? If only websites were so easy to make and bring up on search engines! They touched the wrong nerve here :D

so wiki says its a remake of an English movie Accepted, which was quite funny. I hope the Hindi version is not just a 3 hour extended version of the same!

dfuser:

The film, from the trailers, looks like a rip-off of the Hollywood flick 'Accepted'

Simy Mathews:

I liked your opening line Meeta and yes I did shudder and then shuddered some more watching the trailers.........Even the dance moves look the same throughout all the songs! But yes I won't condemn till I've read your review. Good luck to Remo though, I mean Jacky Bhagnani - yes both need lots of luck!

idiot:

This movie is just a re launch for Jacky Bhagani...and the plot (and the trailer seems too similar to the Justin Long starrer Accepted)

FALTU stands for Fakirchand and Lakirchand Trust University.

in Accepted S.H.I.T stood for South Harmon Institute of Technology
