I agree with the review in bits - she's kinder to the movie than me for sure. To me the film felt random, repetetive, rambling and cocky... in all departments including the so called outstanding background score. The director evidently thinks the core idea that excited the studio heads and stars is enough. For no reason whatsoever, the film keeps zig zagging between three unconnected storylines - all with heroes called David who have problems with their pappas (actually, the Goan one doesn't even have that) ... There is no unity or even connection between the three Davids. If there is, the film certainly fails to make it! Actors are earnest and trying to have fun, but unfortunately the guys who made the film are tripping more than me, the audience. Pity.
i think ur fiat to every reviewer is to wake up early in the morning , open 10 pages in the dictionary and select 10 most brain - numbing words and ask them to use it in a review , ur reviewer is not making herself comprehend-able, thats the tragedy , not even their family members in the deepest corners of their heart wil find any platitudes to offer to these reviewers...

The reviewer is very bombastic like Raja Sen. They are deeply influenced by the yesteryear Critic, Khalid Mohamad. Guys, cultivate your own style. Do not show off. I've understood only 10% of the above piece.

the fact that you compared this review to SHAKESPEARE means two things...One, you are probably illiterate and two, you are insulting Shakespeare! This review isn't really badly written but it is NOT SHAKESPEARE, the genius poet of the mid 1500's to the early 1600's....
