LONDON DREAMS: Buy One, Get Two !!!!

COMBO OFFER!!!! Buy one ticket and get Two dreams free. One on screen called london dreams and the other one in your sleep during the first half!!! Infact, there are two movies in one. It sucks in the first half but picks up in the second. Its a classic example of being plain Stupid to sheer amazing from first to the second half. Cinematography and AD's performance are damn neat. Salman is okay. Music is Bad. Story was damn good but script screwed it. One time watch and i soooo wish somebody makes the same movie again but keeps it short and to the point without stupid jokes and masala stuff. Watchable.

First things first, Its not too bad a movie as well provided you can survive the stupidity, not funny jokes, zabardasti ka character establishment and illogical stuff (i am sure you are not looking for logic in a salman starrer anyways..) The second half is very nice specially performance by AD. He does his usual best in the intense scenes.

Plot: I am sure you would have guessed through the promos, that its a story of jealousy between two friends because the second is more successful than the first. Just to add that extra flavour, a love triangle is also thrown. Add to that some senti family pride motivation. and you get London Dreams' plot. Honestly i love the storyline but script and dialogues were just so pathetic that you start pitying the poor story writer.

Performance: AD rocks. He is known for his intense performances and he delivers damn damn good. You just need to be patient and ignore his spiked-gelled-colored hair, earrings, tight white t shirts, tight brown checks wali trousers and yeah.. he does look damn funny when he tries to perform on stage like a Rockstar!!!!! ;-p But once you ignore that part. He is amazing. Salman does his bit as the 'star performer'. Keeps the audiences interest alive. His character is written pretty well, just that the extra bit of his being a 'playboy' was not required. Asin has nothing to do but to 'dance' in the background while a rock performance(!!!!) is going on with all that 70s look. (Imagine!!!!) She does her bit as the cute wide eyed girl who just runs here and there and keeps giving a shy smile. Thats her job and she does it well.

Technicals: Cinematography is damn good. Ammazing actually. The color combinations in 'Tapke Tapke' was great. Light sequences during stage shows were damn neat as well. Apart form that everything sucks. Direction, Script, Music, Dialogues everything.

Music: One or two songs are hummable. Rest are PATHETIC to the core. You tend to start laughing actually!! I sooo missed Rahman :-(

Positives: AD's performance. Cinematography, Salman is good too.

Negatives: Direction. Script. Dialogues, Stupid jokes, Length

Overall : Its a one time watch with a few friends when you are just planning to have fun. Provided you can ignore Salman and AD miming at hindustani classical songs wearing Black suits with white ties (that too with silver polca dots!!!) AD Rocks. Definitely a one time watch for him.

Feel-o-Meter : 5/10

PS: I soooo wish somebody makes the same movie again with a tigher script, keeps it short without the stupid jokes and parallel tracks, AR Rahman as music director. I will watch it 10 times over. Is anybody listening :-(
