Welcome

Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Paresh Rawal Dir: Anees Bazmee
wogma rating: Switch channels if it's on cable (?)
quick review: One contrived situation follows another. Each scene outdoes the previous one in defying your belief in any kind of sense. No amount of good acting can help save the careless writing.

urmilesh dixit:

Hey your reviews are beginning to look less and less like from "a part of the audience" and more and more like from a critic.

Just an observation, no offense meant.

None taken, Urmilesh!

Well, a critic is also a part of the audience, right?

Kunal:

Hi,
One thing that strikes me in ur reviews is the titles u lend them. Like in this case, "Bad writing, worse execution". This is in sharp contrast with the very spirit of ur site, that is WITHOUT giving the movie away, which I believe is the single most pleasant aspect of ur writing.
With these titles though, u DO give away what ur review has to offer. It seems to sap that subtle sense of excitement. Doesn't it ???

meetu:

Hey Kunal :) It is hard enough not giving away the story of the movie...I couldn't possibly write a review without giving the review away :D

Jokes apart, the tagline is supposed to give a 5-10 word review, for those readers who don't want to read every precious word I have to say about the movie. Then there is the

Vipul Solanki:

I agree with Urmilesh.

Meetu, dont get offended. Urmilesh just wanted to say that the average audience likes entertaining movies even it doesnt have any intelectual value. Welcome is one such movie.

Critics mostly prefer and give ratings to movies with intelectual values. the ones with a message. like Munnabhai. Welcome doesnt have that. But still audience likes it.

You seems more like a critic than an Audience.

meetu:

Not really, Urmilesh. There are many sections in the audience. There are non-message movies that I have liked, Don, Honeymoon Travels, Bheja Fry to name a few.

No offense taken at all.
