I.M.C.F Review
Not many would agree to this but in my opinion... Chetan Bhagat is a good writer with respect to novels, but not a great script provider for movies. Of course, his novels are Cinematic, but how many of them were seriously successful as movies?
Well, keeping other movies aside, this movie is a sheer disappointment. Right from the first frame, seemed very cinematic and no way natural or realistic. Most of the scenes looked like they must be there to give a cinematic effect or to keep the movie running. This film strictly had no emotions, no proper base for romance, the love story seemed like a lust story because of the lack of depth in their relationship.
Madhav (Arjun) starts off the film as a guy with a goal but all he does is to run behind Riya (Shraddha) and live with a sad face for most of his life. Didn't seem like a love failure. Seemed like he was sad he could not get himself laid. And coming back to his goal... never seemed to be focused on his goal. Does something with Bill Gates and all... but it only seemed foolish and stupid on screen. Studied in a good university in Delhi and never managed to learn English. Gave a stupid speech and impressed Bill Gates himself? Wow... a new level of B'wood BS! And the point of 'Half Girlfriend' or the Basketball, never made any sense. Is there love among them or what? Does she like him or what? Seemed like she loves him then what's the point of Half Girlfriend? Well, they tried to justify it, but in a stupid way.
Well, I don't want to describe any more of this stupid film. Just ignore it and save some time.
