Boom (I) (2003)
4/10
style over substance
30 May 2004
OK kaizaad gustaad is suffering from a major Tarantino/wachkowski bros ( from their bound days)hangover..

while this movie is groundbreaking by bollywood standards, one cannot but help feel a major sense of deja vue while watching it..seems to be an overstylsed mish mash of QT movies ( which are themselves an homage to hong kong movies)

the story is non existent,, the characters r not fleshed out and why is it that EVERY mob character HAS to have a quirk/idiosyncrasy? Despite that, the dialogs are clever and javed jaffrey excels..

I hope in his future films, kaizaad also pays a lil attention to the substance! he's got the style thing down pat!
