Intro
Delhi Belly is rib tickling... I still laugh thinking about some of the jokes in this movie.
Synopsis
Diamonds are flown in from abroad and an air-hostess (Shenaz) unwittingly hands it over to her fiance (Imran) who makes an attempt to deliver it to the smugglers. The diamonds transform- 'Yeh toh tatti hai!' (still laughing). Shit happens in this movie, quiet literally.Good
The entire line of guys at the urinals, after the movie, were still laughing... Its well made, good use of the medium and though it reminds you a lot of modern day english sitcom... it is still pure genius. The songs are short, the action sequences long and comedy spontaneously hilariously dirty. The characters are very real and you will hate them as much as you love them...
Bad
This is one of those good attention to details films. I will need to watch it 5 more times (which I intent to do at the soonest) to find anything remotely bad. Perhaps not philosophical enough and if there were layers I could not find it.
Ugly
There are many things ugly about this movie. All this comes in pure hindsight- was laughing too much to think beyond the next second of the film. I can imagine that the incredibly dirtiness inherent in the film will be humorous to only a niche albeit a huge niche in the world population. Please do not watch if you are below 18 or if you are a conservative prick or if you don't like silly, toilet, profane, slapstick humour. Also I read somewhere that the women are treated badly in this movie. And now in hindsight (eyesrolling) I realise that the portrayals of the 'bad girl,' 'noisy girl' and 'heartbreak girl' varieties was indeed stereotypical, but what the hell- Its still funny.Marks- 8/10. I am going to end this review exactly the way that I started it. Delhi Belly- Rib tickling!
