ALL IS WELL Is Terribly Boring Film
Pluses: Few good songs Minuses:
everything else
Critic Rating: 1/5
Business Rating: 1.5/5
Verdict:
Skip it at any cost
Detailed Analysis: Bhushan Kumar has given some really terrible and dated films in last few months i.e. 'Roy', 'I Love NY', 'Creature' and 'Ek Paheli Leela'. Now another potential disaster 'All Is Well' releases today.
Rishi Kapoor plays a Mr Bhalla, who runs a bakery in a hill station called Kasol. He is never seen to be baking anything. All he does is to yell and shout at his wife, and sonny boy Inder (played by Supriya Pathak and Abhishek Bachchan, respectively). Why? That’s a mystery. Ms Pathak is to be found in an ‘ashram’, looking vacantly about. Abhishek switches locations from a Bangkok poolside with bikinied babes to the winding roads of Kasol, where he encounters college-mate Nimmi (Asin, colourless) who has feelings for him. Why anyone would have a tender spot for someone as indifferent as Inder is an even bigger mystery. Up pops a long-haired goon called Cheema who’s only job is to twirl a gun, and threaten people. Why the talented Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub took on this thankless part is a … yes, you got that. It’s a puzzle. Plot? Non-existent. The jokes? Screamingly unfunny. Rishi Kapoor doing ‘su-su’, singing ‘aiyi-aiyi-aiyi’? Groan. When will grown men wanting to urinate stop becoming an acceptable gag in Bollywood? Can someone solve this? It’s always good to see Supriya Pathak, but when will someone come up with a substantial part for her? - See more at: http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/movie-review/all-is-well-movie-review-abhishek-bachchan-asin/#sthash.7CQEWPe9.dpufRishi Kapoor plays a Mr Bhalla, who runs a bakery in a hill station called Kasol.

It’s always good to see Supriya Pathak, but when will someone come up with a substantial part for her? Performance wise Abhishek Bachchan tries his best but he can not save such a bad script. Rishi Kapoor starts from where he left in 'Besharam'. Asin is so bad that you feel happy about her getting married after this film and quitting acting career. Film is so bad that even Zeeshan Ayub looks irritating. Rest of the cast looks clueless. Film has outdated plot but screenplay is kiddish. Dialogues are poor. Film has below par editing. Music is only good pat of the film. Cinematography is tacky and production design is poor.
Director Umesh Shukla made impressive debut with 'OMG Oh My God!' and that was based on a play but this time he is completely exposed as director as he delivers really a poor film. A film lacks in every department. Film will release today and it will struggle and poor reviews will make it a sure shot flop. Looks like a tough ride ahead at box office !
Go for this one at only your risk! | |
