So I JUST saw Cocktail..(the movie..!)..yea I know its kinda late but whatever..I was busy and well had better things to do..Not that i'm free n all now..but somedays you just WANT a drink right? Yea..So today..This was the cocktail I downloaded! ;) (pun intended)
Hmmm..I'm not gonna write a review..its a little too late for that.. just gonna bullet point what I liked and what I didn't..Here Goes:
--> LIKES
* the SCRIPT..!!.. It was a typical Imtiaz Ali..and I absolutely love his writing..! :)
the dialogues had this colloquial-ness to them..which if you ask me is awesome..i hate corny and over-the-top filmy dialogues!!..seriously..we KNOW we are watching a film..please don't make it THAT obvious.!.!.Its relate-able when they talk like real people..n thumbs up to scriptwriters of cocktail for THAT!!
* the DIRECTION..offcourse it wasn't THE best direction ever..but i feel it had its positives...That kind of stuff actually happens you know..rather it happens JUST lyk dat..specially that scene when Deepikas dancing in a crowded club..but she feels like shes dancing all ALONE...(feeling lonely in a crowded place..!..YES.. happens ALL the time..truth of LIFE)
* Deepika's wardrobe...that's obvious ! I actually liked Saif's too
* Music..
* SAIF...i feel hes an underrated actor..
* the REAL point that the movie was trying to make(which I already know & follow in life and sincerely hope & wish that other people would follow too) ..BE FRANK..Don't bottle up you feelings.. and DON'T try to be something that your not..(that's for you deepika..when you recover and try to copy that Penty person..DID NOT suit u!!)
--> DISLIKES
* Boman Irani..seemed unnecessary in the movie !
* Randeep Hooda ..won't hurt you to eat a little bit skinny boy !..Go to Salman Khan..and come back looking like a MAN...instead of a 19 year old with AIDS!!
* How the movie sort-of steered towards the notion that " screw the girls who party..fall in love with the ablaa naari !" I really felt that at some places..BUT..Seeing the movie in totality and Imtiaz Ali's previous work AND the fact that it was basically a love story..I'm gonna give it a major benefit of doubt and IGNORE that feeling..
YUP..that's about it...I hope you weren't expecting me to rate it in stars ! :P :P
Love
