Hey guys,
Just a quick review from last year and as we all have noticed that it was a bad year for bollywood. This new year started off with Chandani Chowk To China and gave us one more flop. Do you guys think this year will turn out to be a flop or there will be other movies that will bring up this film indutry's level back again.
Cheers
Yep Bollywood is a complete disaster but there's always a hope that it will recover…
Cheers:)
What is your opinion on Bollywood movies?
What is your opinion on Bollywood movies?
Many people believe bollywood films to be extremly long movies that are stupid and clichéd with thin plots, the same love triangle, melodramtic and super ficial.
I agree some of the bollywood movies that have come out today aren’t the greatest. The all-to familiar love triangle, crappy musical numbers, and then something unexpected happens which makes no sense. Some of the acting today isn’t up to mark today either. Not to mention the whole trying-to-be-american thing with the slutty tops and dresses women wear in bollywood films today and hindi songs mixed in with American words. Many of the recent bollywood films purely broad cast the word “SEX” or associate with sex. The plot that you’re pretty much sure you saw some Hollywood movie have the same one too. The crappy ripped off movies of some other countries film industries.
Bollywood has had some major success over the couple of years with hits like 3KG, Laagan, and Water, etc. But the recent Bollywood-Hollywood release, Marigold has been a flop, receiving many harsh reviews from both Indian and American reviewers. Marigold wasn’t the greatest, Salman Khan’s acting sucked. The plot was similar to some of the crappy movies made in the industry today only with the 80s look. Marigold sullied many American’s views and perspectives making many of them to believe that all Indian films are like that.
I’m tired of those films too. I’m tired of the stereotype that non-indians believe that a high percentage the actors in Bollywood have personalities like rapists or terrorists. But please, those who believe that all Bollywood are the same: clichéd, long and stupid with the same thin plagiarized plot, listen. Not ALL Bollywood are like that or are the same.
There have been great, true, classics made with an original plot that doesn’t always revolve about love.
I could name some movies from the late 90s and 80s. But the recent ones that I have seen are:
The remake of Devdas ( a little over the edge with the budget and the costumes but the film was really great.)
The legend of Bharat Singh
Black
Viruddh
Lagaan
Water
Guru
Swades
Pinjar
Sandstorm
Chak De India
Taxi No. 9211 (Was not the greatest but the moral was good.)
Baghban
The shootout at Lokhandar
Lage Rago Munnai Bhai
And etc.
There are many more. Some, not too big at the box offices and others, huge block-buster hits.
So please, before you claim that all Bollywood are the same and claim “It’s a terrible, horrible industry that creates all crappy films”, take a good look at your own film industry. Everyone has flaws. Every industry has flops. It is great Bollywood has come so far with the little time directors have to create films and the low budgets they have.
And remember, Bollywood hasn’t always known was “Bollywood.” They weren’t the first to don slutty short skirts and barely there tops, encourage sex scenes, and etc. That is just a fad in today’s film industry. Bollywood was copied these stupid trends from other film industries in other countries such as Hollywood and etc. Bollywood only does it because that’s what seems what people want to see in movies and other industries are doing it too.
So anyways, I would like to hear your opinion on Bollywood. Do you enjoy Bollywood movies? Do you think the film industry has detoriated in the few years? What do you think about recent movies such as Cash, Marigold, and Partners? What Bollywood films do you enjoy? And what improvements would you suggest for the industry?
I agree with you. I'm a teen in the U.K.
90's Bollywood is for me. I know it was cheesy but I still don't like the new movies as much, only the comedy ones are okay. Bollywood is trying to hard to be all American, with the silly songs mixed with English words which just doesn't suit. Another thing I hate about Bollywood is that they always copy Hollywood. Cash was TERRIBLE. Partner was a rip-off, but it was funny (I mean…it had govinda in it!) and I didn't want to see Marigold at the cinema because it looked bad, I'm going to watch it on DVD soon.
I enjoy Shahrukh movies, to me he's a great actor I just love him. Salman Khan is good too.
Improvements I would suggest for the industry is to STOP COPYING HOLLYWOOD MOVIES and not to make their songs too try hard. Use the tabla, Make it Indian for chrissake, but still modern.
