The Rediff review is a complete waste of time... You go through the entire review and all its says that this is COPIED!!! But that is how Bollywood has been for long... What we want to know is whether the movie is good or bad and the reasons for the same. Just stating that the movie is copied and giving it a single star is NO REVIEW!!!
And anyways, Rediff reviews are not true at all. Lats week they criticized Bhool Bhulaiya like anything, which infact turned out to be quite an entertainer... I wonder whether whatever review is given should be take in the opposite way!!!

I agree. No one has seen the original English movieEven if it copies, what is the problem.He was aksed to review the film and not comment on Harry Baweja or Vikram Bhatt's comments.
What is more imortant is an ordinary Hindi moviegoer will like it or not?

You are 100% correct. The reviews on total dustbin quality.. and this D Morgan had to write a review in two minutes and so he scribbled without even watching the whole movie and passed it on the rediff which they posted up without any checking.
Few months ago a Malayalam film titled hallo was released on the same story line. The kidnapped girl makes a call to a random number from a smashed telephone. The only difference is that the girl was not married ........the film stars Mohanlal and Parvathy Melton!

Hey! CAT / DUDE... its people like u why Indians cut out a sorry figure in the world... Yes copying is bad but understand how many of the normal Indian movie goers actually watch English movies so for them this works... Also you so called follower of English movies, quite a number of hollywood projects are completely copied from Japanese (horror flicks), Iranian, Italian, French (Drama, Romantic comedy). I would tell you to start watching world cinema u'll understand a thing or 2 bout your much praised HOLLY WOOD FILMS... Are u an INDIAN... Just checking cause you have very loosely used the term "Bloody" for Indians... take care and grow up.
Excuse Me Mr. Morgan, Ok agreed, its a ripoff, then what? Thats all!!!!, whr is d review? Quoting what producer n director said is review? Even though its a exact copy of Cellular or Speed whatever what u feel, whats ur analysis? According to u if producer n director said its original n now u found that its a ripoff of some film then is it a not watchable film?
What we wann knw is if a film is good then how good and if its bad how bad or why bad? Just tell that .......
Mr Morgan that was evident from the promos of the film itself that it was a ripoff. Even if it wasnt, no one is going to watch a Zayed Khan film. Urmila must not be getting film offers at all inspite of being a fabulous actress... which must be the reason she must have agreed to do Cellular... Speed... whatever!
