Would you be alive after a deadly explosive, fabricated to kill hundreds explodes a meter away from you? Well the firang FBI agent in KURBAAN was. This was the level of banality and doltishness this film offered.
Starting with the plot, . . . I don't even want to talk about it. If you have seen the Katrina Kaif, Irfan Khan starrer New York, then this is pretty much the same. The usual muslim turns terrorist story. The desperate attempts to bring twists and turns into the film are barely exciting and are a total failure. Saif and Kareena are devoid of emotion. Kher and OmPuri have been wasted. Vivek Oberoi, I must say has done a good job(as usual) but dear Mr.Oberoi, consult an astrologer, you are a very 'unlucky star'.
Now why did I decide to watch this film?
1. TOI gave it 3 and a half stars
2. The Kurbaan hua song video, with the Adam and Eve concept and the rose catching fire was brilliant so I premised, the movie would be half as good.
3. I had great company(Although it was a crappy movie, the seven of us made sure we had fun)
4. I had to choose between this and 2012.
If you haven't watched any film that is even remotely close to terrorism, or bomb blasts or gangsters etc. and you are spending your miserable life watching 'happily ever after' stories with angels and magic wands, and don't know how to spend your papa ka paisa, then you might want to watch this film.
Overall a thumbs down from me. A BIG thank you to the front row audience who, with their humorous parodies kept us entertained.
LOL!
