Saw this Bollywood Movie called RACE at Hollywood Theatres yesterday. For a late night show of 11:30, I must say the theatre was pretty packed ..lets say about 80% full and out of that maybe 20% were fellow Nepali's.

This flick was just another Hollwood wannabe with lots of style but little substance. The movie was not a total disaster but one expected more from a director duo (AbbasMustan) who has in the past produced great ones like Baazigar, Gupt and even Ajnabee to name a few. The twists are way too many in this movie but none of them are enthralling enuff and moreover they are at most times expected. The director(s) concentrated way too much on the twists but left the story behind. After the interval, all that the story does is drag amidst a lot of goofs that even a 6th grader would have no troubles pointing out. For instance, How the heck could SaifAli Khan's car manage to drift at damn high speeds without either of his brakes working? Well!! anyway Saif is the only one who acts pretty well. Akshay Khanna and Katrina Kaif is at their very worst. Anil Kapoor and Sameera were refreshing at first but got damnn irritating with time. The two things that did go well with the movie were its songs and sexy Bipasha Basu. But those are hardly reasons one would go to watch a movie in a theater for.

RACE - 1/5
