Review of Sarkar Raj

Sarkar Raj (2008)
6/10
Bring your earplugs!!
7 June 2008
I am a huge fan of Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan and they were the only reason why I wanted to see this movie since I am not a fan of the genre. They both performed very well and the story was OK. What ruined it for me in a major way was that excessive "background" music. It was so bad that I had to block my ears at one point. It's as if the filmmaker thought that the audience was so stupid that, unless he used overly dramatic music to underline either what was said or what just happened, then the audience would not grasp the importance of it. I also did not care for the weird camera angles. Since I do not understand Hindi, I had to rely on the subtitles and quite a few times, they were unreadable because the words were blended in with the background. As for Amitabh Bachchan, I don't know what all the fuss is about!
