Tere Bin Laden - Notepad

Tere Bin Laden

Ali Zafar, Barry John, Chinmay Mandlekar, Chirag Vohra Dir: Abhishek Sharma
wogma rating: Buy the DVD already (?)
quick review: Tere Bin Laden is a subtle slapstick, if such an oxymoron exists. You'll miss out on loads of fun if you miss this one. When you are helpless and can do zilch, the least you can do is present a laughable solution to a hopeless situation.

Plot Summary

Ali Zaffar, a Pakistani journalist, aspires to go to the US. His one last attempt gets him to do the most desperate deed one could have thought of. And the ramifications it had, could have skipped ones' attention.

What Worked

    Just naming a few -
  • Zoya's "gait" when she's wearing a salwar suit.
  • Some of the things included in operation 'kickass'
  • The hand grenade sequence
  • Lazeez-Azeez joke
  • The joke on US' social security situation
  • The titles
  • The closing credits
  • The real Osama showing up!

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

  • Backlight while Zoya's doing the makeup, but her face is all lit up. Was distracting.

I have just one thing to say to you at this moment. Where is the review for Inception. I saw it three times this weekend and I still can't get no more.

Would have been much better if some well known face was there in the movie.

Samir:

Watched the film yesterday. Funniest film since Khosla ka Ghosla. Jaane bhi do Yaaron was pretty ham-handed compared to this ( I know I am inviting a lot of flak, but I have never been able to understand the high praise that even seasoned critics have showered on it. Try sitting thru it now and you'll know what I mean.)

@Harpreet sorry, I've stopped reviewing non-Hindi films. Unless I can cover every film released in Pune in that particular bracket, I see no point in covering just one-odd film.
I did watch Inception, unfortunately only once. Loved it.

@Joydeep the jokes are put in really well.

@Giftsomeone then, that would be a different film.

@Samir Oh how i agree! It's almost blasphemous to say anything again Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro. I don't think I like that kind of satire. Now let's face the flak together.
