Masand's Verdict: Love Story 2050
Cast: Harman Baweja, Priyanka Chopra, Boman Irani
Director: Harry Baweja
There is no easy way to put this so I'm just going to come out and say it - Love Story 2050 is a film so preposterous, it makes you want to round up the people associated with it and flog them publicly till they apologise for wasting your time and for burning up good money making this trash.
The movie kicks off in present day Adeleide where Karan (Harman Baweja) falls head over heels in love with Sanaa (Priyanka Chopra) the moment he sees her chasing butterflies in a park. An hour of childish wooing and many songs later she returns the sentiment, but is killed by a speeding truck when she's crossing the road with an ice cream. Such a scream!
Unable to put up with his whining, Karan's maama, mad scientist Uncle Ya (Boman Irani) cranks up his time machine and takes off with Karan for a trip into the future. For some strange reason that I can't be bothered to explain, they're convinced Sanaa is alive and well in Mumbai 2050.
Somewhere in the middle of all this, there's also a Darth Vader-like villain (complete with black cape, silly mask and heavy breathing voice) who's got his eyes on the mad scientist's time machine, and won't give up till he's chased our protagonists through this special effects-heavy futuristic city.
Sitting in the cinema watching Love Story 2050, you realise you're watching something historic - a film that for years to come will be the punch line of jokes about bad movies. A film people will use as a benchmark to compare other bad movies. After all, it's that rare breed of film that gets almost nothing right - starting from a script that's part-predictable, part-gobbledygook, direction that is surprisingly conspicuous by its absence, and acting that is so amateurish you want to admit them all into Kishore Namit Kapoor classes.
This is a very mild review by masand of the movie by my standards . Iwould not care to give even one star to this piece of garbage by this panjabi bhai in the guise of cinema ..The film is so shoddy that you feel as if some novice or amateur has directed it..The guy looks so much gay in his mannerisms that at one point you feel happy that the girl isnt showing any interest in him...!!!!
harmans voice resembles sonu nigam and no he doesnt copy hrithik hes simply nowhere near him ..Harman is too busy proving that hes a nonactor that he wont remember hrithik at all
all the chahracters in the movie serve only one purpose make the ordeal worse..Archanapuransingh with her corny lines is insufferable...Boman irani hams like there is no endin his predictable way..Dalip taahil must be sick of his bad dad portrayels surely..I see no end in sight if i continue derading this movie like this ..So my advise to you is if i have suffered it so should you..So please go and see it
You need a psychiatrist aishwarya :d
It is roking film
