Ready

Salman Khan, Asin Thottumkal Dir: Anees Bazmee

wogma rating: Watch when on TV ^(?)

quick review: This is no Dabangg because it has a plot that the makers try to stick to. Or is it just me being wishful? And it might sound like it, but this is a positive review coming from this forum.

The titles! The least any decent film does these days is to have good title sequences. They didn't.
The special appearances.
The stunts.
Random placement of songs.

Rahul:

I am shocked. You make the film sound almost "watchable". I might actually see this now.

amit kaundinya:

First this shock of a movie, then this Shock of a review. Guess, you had hyper low expectations for this movie. Ready is a retarded film. And coherent plot? Plot? whats tht....they even forgot the Chunky Pandey character they created. Masala movies doesnt necessarily hv to be this crap tht is churned out.

ligne:

@mitu: this is a remake of a telugu film, which was fun only because of some humorous dialogues, the story was a serious stretch but still sort of paisa vasool. perhaps that explain the tangible story?

Nitin Sharma:

Ready is completely for mass audiences out of metros, embedded with masala ‘one man army’ formula. It doesn’t justify itself as a full on laugh film.

Thanks Meeta, was waiting for the 'Ready' (pun intended) from you and now I will go and watch this ;-)

meetu:

@Amit oh come on! it's not like i wrote a glorious review. And the "coherent plot" line was a joke!

@ligne i don't know. there just seemed to be a flow in what was happening notwithstanding how weird it all was.

@Nitin. So-so that's what i'm saying.

@Simy aha! let me know how you like it.

nice review meetu as usual........but it's strictly for Salmaniacs of which i happen to be member as well.we only enjoy watching Salman bhai on screen and don't care much about the plot or logic if required.we simply enjoy Salman bhai and yes we are impartial towards others in our ideology.

Rahul:

It was not as over the top as Singh is King (the last Anees film that I watched), nor was it all over the place as Dabangg was. Of course, the side characters are dispensed off without an explanation, and each character is a caricature. Nothing unexpected happens, yet somehow it does not get boring.

Then there is Asin, so why not watch it! :P
