Commented on fenil_seta's review
Hi Fenil A wonderful review there. You've read my review so you know how I feel about it as this is a subject that is very very important to me. I honestly felt that Kabir could have done better, (I had liked Kabul Express more) and here, though the movie was technically superb, there were a quit read more...
Commented on anuraag_chandra's review
Hi Anurag Another neatly penned review there. I have seen this film recently and penned a review as well. Overall, my main complaint was that it presented only one side (an immigrant's perspective), though compared to average Bollywood flick it was better. I had really liked Kabul Express, but co read more...

Commented on Reader999's review
Hi Preetishi I agree, me too was very disappointed with this flick in many ways! Good review there. Technical aspects were impressive, script, and everything else were mediocre :( V
Hi Saj, Sorry to be late. But, (a) I didnot want to read reviews before watching the film, and (b) Since yesterday, MS pages are just not loading for me..I mean it is either too slow, or not working at all for me. Dunno if you are having the same problem :( Buddy, your review as usual is very w read more...

Commented on own review
Hi Vineet, Thanks for returning and for your value added comment. I guess I was comparing John in those scenes with Omar Metwally, who was simply brilliant in 'Rendition'. Buddy, do watch 'Rendition' if you get a chance. That was a brilliant film on the torture issue and stuck to the point. It di read more...
Hi Paul :) As promised I am back after watching this film. Brother (if I may call you so), I was kinda disappointed overall. May be I was expecting too much. But honestly, so many things were just completely overlooked. You know as film maker, if you want to make a political statement, one sh read more...
Bobby bro :) Thanks a million for the lovely words!! You write very well too brother! Well, this movie could have been a lot better, somethings really disappointed me big time :( But yes, over all it was a decent attempt. Thanks once again for showering all the compliments and for your s read more...
Hi Ajay!! Bro! Thanks a ton for your lovely comment! Glad you liked it. I wish the film was better. Thanks again brother for the lovely words! V
Hi Mazhar!!! Buddy!! This film I was actually disappointed, as I have written in my comments above, it has only represented one aspect and overlooked many others. Technicality and visuals were top notch, rest was just ok...nothing great :( I recommend watching 'Rendition' instead. Thanks for read more...
Hi Sujata:) Good to see you here buddy! Welcome to my space and thanks so much for the kind words. You know, I can't tell you how overwhelmed with emotion I was as I was penning this review. I was disappointed with the film, it could only touch the surface, and represented one angle and overlo read more...
Hello Samir :) Thanks buddy! You were there as well, so I am sure you can relate to my feelings at many levels. What happened was unfathomable and I think people like us will remember it for the rest of our lives. I don't know if you have already seen 'Rendition', but if you haven't as yet, I read more...
Hermit!! Brother, thanks for the wonderful comment. Even as I was writing the review, all those memories were coming back to me and I was feeling awful. I will try to pen it as a DP someday, but its quite hard, as it makes me very very emotional. You know, I have still kept the suit and tie as i read more...
Nirvana!!!!!!!! Dude! Will wait for your comment after you have seen the flick. Looking forward to discussing it. Thanks for being here! V
Hi Nonu!! Booking confirmed buddy! Will wait for your detailed comment! V
Hi Raj, Thanks buddy! Good to see you here. Yeah, I could not help but write about my experience here. That is the reason I went to see the film in the first place. But, honestly was kinda disappointed with the flick. Thanks for being here! V
Hi Ajeet, Welcome to my space buddy! Glad you liked this review of mine, thanks for the kind words buddy! V
Hi Paul, Good to see you at the numero uno spot on my space Sir!! I guess I had very high expectations from this film, and came out feeling empty and disappointed. Honestly, what impressed me was the technical aspects and the visuals. Rest was just very mediocre. Thanks! V
