Movie Review: Omkara
The Reviewer |
|
Watched it |
At home on a DVD |
Bottomline |
Deftly Executed – Othello films are not uncommon – This one stands out – The film is good to be sent to the Oscars this year The look of the film gets 100% marks Music complements the film perfectly Language is hard to understand – Needed subtitles to understand Pace is slow – But that was perhaps deliberate – Could have shortened the film by 15 odd minutes It's hard to survive the first 20 minutes of the film (When the story does not move and the language is a shock) |
Peformances |
Saif and Devgan stand out – Kokona and Kareena are good – Vivek Oberoi and Bipasha are passable – Naseruddin Shah doesn’t get scope. |
Recommendation |
Highly Recommended (Only if you are not looking for entertaining movies) |
Expectation |
*** |
Rating |
*** and a bit |

u mumbaikar's can't even understand hindi and blame it on director for using such language.
i bet you liked satya with all that mumbai language.
did we ever say it was a shock?
* In lighter vein *
Just like English is the language used worldwide, Mumbai Hindi has become synonymous with India - You don't expect the movie going junta to complain about the same
A) Because everyone understands
B) Because it is so darn nice
C) Because they don't have a choice.
Howzzat!!?! ;-)
Mumbai hindi has become synonymous with India?!!!!! really Mr Shah, where in hell is is that?
Thank God yours is just an opinion, and highly flawed one at that. If it were true, there is no real hope for the poor natioanl language at all.
