The Age of Commercialism

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Race 3, an in-name-only third installment of a wildly successful franchise, has me thinking: Who let the filmmakers attach the name to this steaming pile of crap? It's not quite sure what it wants to be. Like a cross between a heavy-handed soap opera, a heist movie, an over-the-top musical extravaganza and a mindless Michael Bay blockbuster, complete with illogical explosions. By the end of the first extended action sequence, I wanted to tap out but I knew I wasn't getting a refund due to the use of MoviePass so I was in it for the long haul.Clocking in at 160 minutes (standard for an Indian film), we are treated to about a minute of thanks credits before being quickly thrown into the squabbles of this wealthy dysfunctional family, the Singhs. The film gives us a narrative, describing each living member of the family with great detail, as if these characters already existed. It's like watching someone narrate Dallas.Since almost everyone in the film has more negative qualities than positive, this makes it hard to find someone to relate to. There is one who stands out, Sikander (Salman Khan, who also produces), as a sort of black sheep. Decent performances are given but they're all hindered by the writing, which adds something new on so often one can lose track. I see it as a bizarre parallel to my own work.I don't have much experience in Indian cinema. Only a few have crossed my path (Dr. Cabbie, Padmaavat and Aiyaary) but this one makes me question the future of my seeking out more. I know there are way better ones out there, and I'll find those.Visually, the film has a rather blatant abuse of slow motion effects. Even to the smallest of details. This may be due to my lack of viewing but there was a lot of jumping between Hindi and English, and subtitles for both sides. As well as a number of inconsistencies in the translation (some words come out spelled differently, words being capitalized strangely).Don't get me wrong. I love musicals (I saw The Greatest Showman five times and I embrace all kinds of different selections) but here, the over-the-top flashy theatrical musical numbers felt so out of place and very overlong.I'll have to seek out some Indian films with repute, and perhaps not go gung ho next time. If there is a Race 4 after this (rumor has it, there will be), I'm afraid I may have to steer clear. 0.5/5.

Race and Race 2 were amazing! Saif Ali Khan was best for this role and Salman didn't suit this action role at all! Missed Saif a lot!

So Race 3 hits the theaters and I went to see it. What I would say is that this movie is just a waste from scene to scene. Remo D'Souza did a very very bad job making this film. This film didn't even had a good story but in fact it was incredibly bad. At least Flying Jatt was a little bit better than this one but the direction stays the same for these films. Salman Khan's acting was so bad that you will not believe that he'll do this type of acting. Jacqueline was totally not needed in this movie and so is the other actors and actresses like Bobby Deol, Daisy Shah and Saqib Saleem. The only good thing about this movie was Anil Kapoor as how his character was more focused than anyone elses. Let's talk about the action in this movie. The action was very bad because it won't look as realistic as how Race 2's action sequences was. But then again it was also pointless. Also I think that this is one of the worst films of Salman Khan. And I also don't get why he would do these types of films.Anyways I would give this movie a 4/10 because I think that this movie showed that it is going to be bad from the trailer and the then movie itself was very bad compared to the trailer.

Remo sir please don't try to direct again. This is the worst movie I've ever scene.
