A big disappointment...
16 August 2006 | by (Denmark) – See all my reviews

Normally my expectations for Karan Johar movies are very high, but I am really disappointed this time, because the plot of the movie is very bad and very boring. There are no great and sudden scenes in the movie. Everything goes slow and expected. You can guess the climax of the movie from the every start. There are no trills, no excitement, no surprises. There is just a couple of dramatic scenes and that is all. I don't know why Karan Johar has decided to tell the story in this boring style, but there is just one thing I can say to him right now: "DUDE, YOUR MOVIE SUCKS" I will definitely try not to get fooled by trailers of a movie further on.
