Review of Zubeidaa

Zubeidaa (2001)
6/10
yaaaawn....
16 June 2001
this movie is pretty yawn friendly...the rather insipid screenplay by khalid mohamed does no justice do the movie which is better than average in almost all other aspects. the dialogue, once again by khalid is pretty good, but the narrative leaves much to be desired. the music by a r rehman is, once again, mind-blowing stuff. so gaye hain is probably one of the best songs in its genre ever. kudos to rehman and benegal for the great music. karisma kapoor comes up with a good performance, but it is in no way great. yes...karisma has come of age from the days of jhatkas and matkas... but she still has a long way to go before she can match up to bollywood actors like amitabh bachchan, tabu, kajol, shahrukh .. and yes, amir. as for the rest of this movie... keep it for a lonely afternoon.
