TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

ashdoc53 This movie looks like its been made for the front benchers ,so we decided to watch it from the front bench ........okay I am lying .......there was no advance booking done today ,so we had to take the only available seats .Both Neil Nitin Mukesh and Deepika Padukone are lower middle class Maharashtrians living in a chawl in Tilakwadi in Mumbai .Difference--While Neil is a Lafangaa ( what else ? ) working for the local goon Usmanbhai , and other boys in the neighbourhood including Deepika's brother waste their time horsing about in the gullies ,Deepika dreams about getting out of the rut of lower class existence and making it big as a skate-dancer...............until her dreams are shattered by an accident and she turns to Neil to restore them ........not knowing that he harbours a deadly secret......Deepika certainly plays the role of a tough-talking street smart girl well , daring to claim that she is the one who makes passes on her dance trainer because he doesn't...........and looks as good as she has in her every film......and dances great too.........Sadly , the rest of the film doesn't match her...........its rather mediocre......The Mumbai street language of the chawls has been a bit overdone .......Neils acting is just about okay......music is not worth talking about........ending is insipid.......

lprulez88 I was really quite hesitant to watch this movie at first.I mean ,it had bikes and gangsters and there was a girl.It was such a cliché at first glance,but since I believe that Neil Nitein Mukesh has always managed to amaze me in each and every film,I decided to go against my guts. And as usual I was blown away by Neil's performance.Yes,the storyline was undeniably predictable all the way but it wasn't that much of a cliché.There was still some very good scenes,like for example when Munna dunked Pinky into the water.Did I mention how good Neil is,he is.I think he's one of the most underrated actor in BOllywood.I really wasn't quite surprised to find that he pulled of his character with conviction.Deepika as the blind heroine also should be given a mention,To me, Deepika was always a pretty girl but she held her own beside the oh so amazing Neil Nitein Mukesh.Her stubborn blind girl act is definitely way better than the bimbo head she played in Houseful. I enjoyed the songs especially Man Lafanga and the stunts were good,since I'm no stunt buff(whatever you call it)and I don't think I should mention to much of it,but overall the movie is definitely a good watch.

Ankush Singhal You can surely tell 'Lafangey Parindey' has been passed through Sanjib Datta's editing bay one too many times. Style over substance is the norm as the whole film looks like what someone might vomit up after partially digesting Natarajan Subramanian's digitized footage. Eldridge Rodrigues' insistently fussy and grandiose production design mistakes extra-crisp textures, brilliant colors and high contrast backdrops for story atmosphere and style. Yes it's flashy as hell, but amphetamine-fueled methods do not compensate for distinct lack of substance. Sham Kaushal's action all but forces its bulky, twitching mass down your throat until you realize you haven't been entertained but assaulted.'Lafangey Parindey' is certainly a front runner for one of the worst mainstream Bollywood releases of the year. It will try your patience and give you a throbbing headache - about all it does with any success.

Gurudutt Kamath This film truly surprised me. I was expecting one of the same old formula gangster cum romance film; but, surprise, it takes pot shots at life! It is definitely one of the most entertaining films of the year. Gopi Puthran the story/screenplay/dialogs writer is truly a great find and we will certainly hear more about him.In the acting department, the entire cast surprises you by giving very competent performances. I really loved the Bhai, KK Menon makes a good guest appearance. Both Deepika and Neil surprised me with their performance! All the other goofy named characters were also good.The story is extremely well written and the film is well directed. The dialogs are memorable and strong! Mumbaiya and tapori (rowdy) language rules! This film reminds you of the good old day films where story and entertainment was paramount. Basically, that formula has been worked out for today's audience.The songs and music are quite good. The photography too is quite good.What is outstanding is the skating choreography (Sandro Guerro)! Deepika and Neil really shine in the skating scenes!The end is a little bit abrupt and predictable!Will I watch it again? Yes, of course. There is a bit of violence and gangsterism is the backdrop, but this film is about life and love. Definitely worth a watch, if not more. Go for it! Finally, a truly entertaining film.
