Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Just perfect...
Best movie ever!
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
I really do ُnt know why this movie has a rating like 5/8.Kank was not a great film but its better than 5/8.(maybe 7/4)Why I liked:Music:I think after Kuch Kuch Hota Hai the music of Kank is the best in Karan Johar ُs movies.(as a director)The song"Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna" is the best song.I think "Tumhi Dekho Naa" was a little like "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai" (song) and "Rock n Roll Soniye" is a little like "Shava Shava" in "K3G". Karan Johar can control the actors and most of he scenes. Performance:Kank is like K3g.full of superstars.but all of them have a great performance.I think Kank has one of the best ensemble cast in Hindi films.SRK:A lot of SRk ُs fans don ُt like this movie because of his character.He is Dev Saran.when you are watching Kank you must forget KKHH,K3G,DDLJ,KHNH,DTPH and all of the kind,good and comedy characters of him.He is not an idiot lover in KKHH,or even an obsessive lover in Darr.He has a special performance.He makes Dev Saran real and if you like SRK ُs positive character maybe you do ُnt like Dev Saran.Rani Mukherjee:I ُm happy that Kajol rejected Kank.because even her appearance is not suitable for Maya ُs character.Rani has an innocence face but she can be a traitor too.Rani can talk with her eyes.I don ُt like her but she has a good performance.Preity Zinta:Preity has 4 movies with Srk but it ُs clear that they are not good for each other!Because of this maybe she was the best choice for Rhea ُs role.she ُs beautiful and suitable for a fashion magazine. i think it ُs one of Preity ُ s best performances.Abhishek Bachan:The best actor of the movie.He and Amitabh Bachan are only funny characters.Rish ُ s angry face,kind face,comedy face and his love fr Maya.Abhishek can do all of these. Amitabh Bachan:He and SRK have problem with each other?(in movies)at first "Mohabbatein" that Amitabh was fighting with Srk.Then K3g and now Kank.but in Kank they had a better relationship than to previous movie. i thin Samarjeet don ُ t like Dev.Amitabh is amazing and makes you laugh in the most of scenes.Kiron Kher:she was ُ nt so important but she was good too.Characters:the characters were real,believable.they were ُ nt far or they were ُnt from another planet.They were near and I could understand them.None of them was white or black.all of them are gray.none of them was innocence,all of them had their fault.Dev was the darkest character and Rishi was the lightest.all of the characters failed.all of them had a part in their personality that wants to finish everything.but only Dev and Maya found that part.They are not as complete as their spouses because of this ,they feel bad about their marriages.Why I didn ُ t like:story,story and story!treason is not a bad story but it was bitter and different by Indian ُs culture.the hotel scene between Dev and Maya was not necessary. the story was real but usually people are not as lucky as these characters.you can leave your spouse for someone else!then...what happened?everybody forgives you and you can be happy with that one!Rishi married again Rhea found someone else,Dev and Maya reunited each other.Then what can we hear?"the foundation of marriage should be love not something else."It ُs right the way of showing this was wrong.the story is the happiest style of treason.But sometimes it can ُt be like this.9/10.
Sadly, this is realistically what happens often. People get married hoping that their partner is the one, but later to find out that out there is the real one, their soul partner.To what extent will one be willing to sacrifice for true love? Responsibilities, love of the present partner?Unfortunately, both Dev and Maya don't seem to have put in some effort to re-kindle their love for their spouse and save their marriages. Some effort here would have made this movie more endearing.Dev's father gave a practical advice, which may should heed. Love well, love deep and hold on to it tight. But if all else fails, let go. Let go so that each can find happiness in future. Time heals.
I don't know why the Indian film makers are always inspired or is it that it is a coincidence but it had occurred so many times , something has to be divine about it . Plagiarism at its best just that they spoil it especially if the person is Karan johar ,first he should learn direction i guess or better hire someone. Acting is acceptable but scripting needs lot to be worked on especially dialogs. Moreover why karan johar always have to be so lavish why they all have to be rich. while most of Indians are poor or middle class why didn't he take the aspect of middle class life and struggler could have easily made the story more realistic and touching.Because I don't think the portrayal of rich society adds so much to it . Further why the story always need to be told in foreign countries if it is expense then may be acceptable because i don't think only NRI have extra marital affairs ,in India it occurs too So mR KJ seriously learn some story telling skills else u can never be a raconteur.Acting by SRK,AB baby is good but scripting and story don't do justice to them.Amitabh is wasted ,i don't understand what he is doing there .he could have watched the movie in cinema theater i guess or maybe he wanted a live experience .
In France, they would have hanged Karan Joker by a lamp post. Anyone who likes this movie should have their head examined. All these people are great actors in a way. They act as if they are actors, but all they are is a bunch of money grubbing pimps and whores. They will do any movie for money. Forget about giving anything back to the industry which gave you so much. Hey Karan Joker, you want to do some good to Bollywood ? Eat a bullet. I feel like I have been violated. This guy has a talent for making people throw up. What a waste of foreign exchange. Freedom of expression is great but this movie falls in the same category as hate speech.
