Review of Masti

Masti (2004)
the dregs of Bollywood
22 August 2004
I tend to enjoy Bollywood movies without shame, despite the campiness that makes my friends roll their eyes. For example, while the reviews were pretty harsh about Hum Tum, I thought it was cute and satisfying. However, this movie was just awful. The acting was incredibly bad, the story was stupid and abrasive, and the technical quality was dismal. It would not compare favorably to old Hee Haw reruns for subtlety and wit. I gave up half way through the movie. See it if you must, but don't use this movie as an introduction to Bollywood for your uninitiated friends or it will be their first and last. Of course your mileage may vary; numerous other reviewers seemed to think this movie was fabulous, just as several of my friends loved "Weekend at Bernie's" (and I've made it a point to discount their opinions ever since.)
