Ok guys! Here's an honest and unbiased review. I am old member who didn't make a new account after my last one was banned but I have been reading threads. I HAD to make a new account because I see BV unfairly criticized and getting a bad rep for no reason.
I liked the film! And I didn't even see it in a cinema hall. Reading all the bashing here and in twitter I thought this was not the time i pay for a ticket so I watched the movie online where the quality is so bad and I could not even understand all the dialogues. But the movie had my attention the whole time and in no point was I bored or I thought the plot went too slowly. Most things have reason to be in the movie.
Yes, it's not a soulful romantic movie that wants to make its audience cry. Kashyap didn't intend to make that. But it's a HIGHLY entertaining movie with a gripping story. I was reminded of Inglorious bas***ds, in the sense that these movies are more about engaging the audience's minds.
Ranbir and Anushka both ROCK! They are so believable and their chemistry is sooo good! I can already see Ranushka shippers growing in the future. Ranbir, especially, shines, and I could relate to the ambitious side of him to be a 'bigshot'. He is flawed, sometimes stupid, but he is the underdog and the HERO.
And of course, everybody has talked about the music a lot. That's not because there's nothing else good about the movie but because the music is absolutely ASTOUNDING. The music, I would say, is the STAR of the movie, alongside Ranbir and Anushka. It's quirky at times but is gripping and good and pleasant and spot on.
Of course, like every movie, this movie has flaws. I wish the climax had extended a little more, but it's still good. Watch it people! It's 100x better than the likes of HNY, D3 and Kick.
Edit: Yes, it's much better than YJHD as well. I could not even tolerate 30 mins of that movie.
