Ghanchakkar Audience Reviews

Steineded How sad is this?
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
braddugg A wonderful starter had a sour dessert that made the whole dinner bad. It had a wonderful premise and in fact a terrific robbery scene that I must acknowledge as a great one with the use of those really funny and original props. Come on, we have a mask of Utpal Dutt, it can't be funnier than that. But after the first half, the director seemed to have lost it all. The way first half ends and the whole movie ends are completely radical and irrational to say the least. The writes seems to have lost all ideas in the deliberation to make it a really engaging film. All the good ideas were plotted so early that the ones that come in the later part of the film seemed very dull and indeed boring. You cannot have ridiculous things happen and repeat them time and over again just to make it look funny. When you overdo something, it becomes dis likable more often than not and that's what happens even to few delicious dinner table dialogs and those original costumes of Vidya Balan.About the casting, I was happy with Rajesh Sharma (Pandit) and Namit Das (Idris) and even Emraan Hashmi (Sanjay) managed to pull off a good deal but it was Vidya Balan (Neetu) who was completely miscast. She defied my logic of going to a movie for her by selecting a very low-key role and her Punjabi accent seemed so fake. Utterly disappointed by Vidya Balan and I will be cautious next time in watching her movie. The cinematography was good and even the background music. But editing undid ail the good work by others, this movie seemed too long and too repetitive, are those too many dinner scenes and too many references to the fashion magazines necessary? I really doubt. Also, the art direction was commendable as the whole apartment was setup very realistically and even the locales were real. Yet, good things turn bad when they are overdone. This film is an example of a good premise written so very lazily and deliberated into a film that it makes us run away from it after a while. Except for 45 minutes, all remaining time is lost and can never be bought back. Only because I have my own discipline of reviewing each film I watch, I am posting it. I may save 3 hours of someone's valuable time too by sharing a bad review. A 1/5 for this, nothing more.
keepmissingme Where's the money ? Where's the money ?? That's all you can really hear through out the movie. It starts off well and then its a nose dive. I would never recommend this movie to anyone. I can't believe Vidya Balan decided to do this movie. There are just a few funny moments. Well you cant really call them funny. I love both Emraan Hashmi and Vidya but I will think twice before watching their movie again. Waste of time and money. Very poor direction, screenplay. A few dialogues were good and funny but other than that an embarrassment. Hope Emraan Hashmi and Vidya Balan learn from their mistakes and think twice before signing up even if your husband is producing the film.
v-3-gupta No director has done it before. Indians cannot accept it. We want or rather crave for closures and this is exactly what this movie is missing.We are a society who has to be spoon fed. We cannot marry up the knowledge to reach a conclusion. Someone has to do it for us.An open ended movie is never going to do well.For me this movie was awesome. I liked every bit of it. The plot, the scenarios, the situations and the acting. Well written and well executed comedy.I think Vidya Balan is criticized for her role but I think she was completely honest with her role. She did exactly and precisely what director wanted her to. Her character was who loved her husband and exploring fashion.Very creative story but not cut out for Indian audience as they are not familiar with amnesia or similar disease.
anupamwww let begun with why we watch movie . we watch for entertainment , for fun and to look for some effort of nobility among others.this movie focus mainly of husband-wife relationship among daily chaos . which i think has covered it well by actors .the villains to done their pat at dark comedy role .so through out the movie their is a comic feeling .. which at end blunts as splashed simple .. either a twist or a simple progression with the usual satire wood have been justified rather then a sudden change from comedy to tragedy .. its a movie where audience laugh all through only to see a tragic . making no-sense unjustified end (such end can not be the end neither it ties the loose strings it put your effort and your laughing meaningless)
