Elaan (2005)
Elaan-Waste of Time
2 February 2005
Warning: Spoilers
This was a bad movie, it was my time wasted but it was also producers money wasted. Why would you not do little homework before making a Film. Some sequences just leave u dumbfounded not because they are marvelous but because they are not entertaining. Film maker has spent money in shooting outdoors but what does he bring to his viewers despite that. The answer is NOTHING. Movie has no story, some scenes are just simply stupid, it feels like this movie was completed in a hurry. Director goes back to old bollywood formula of revenge films, which made no sense at all. Heroes will fly, cars will fly, and also beat up guys with better gun yet end up victorious at the end. Every time a car crash in the movie it was big fire ball, how come. They said in the promos it was a Hollywood style movie yet the action scenes were horribly shot, the sound was horrible, music was below mediocrity. The characters looked misplaced. Some were good and most of them were not good. Mithun was good, but disappointing because he just sat there and talked on the phone, he should've bagged out some of his old karate chops. Rahul kHanna could act nice and controlled performance. Arjun Rampal was OK, he was there in the movie but he was pushed all the way to the side by the story. John didn't fit the character, his tapori dialogue delivery was bad, and comic timing was awful, and he did overact most of the time. There is not much to talk about the ladies as i said this is re-visitation to old bollyflick where ladies sing, dance and look pretty. No Acting talents require. OVerall story was horrible because it had too many loopholes. ITs too many to write about, see it to believe it. I feel bad for the producers cause there money is put to waste. And advice to action filmmakers chill with the wire action sequences beats the whole purpose of watching a good movie when guys start flying for no reason whatsoever out of no where. Thats not Hollywood style of ACtion.
