Mediocrity

Yesterday there was a debate with my colleague over 3 idiots. While he found the film great, I just found it mediocre. For me a film should be great in what it tries to convey and 3 idiots should be looked at purely an entertainer. In that way it was a nice film. However, 3 idiots tried to make a point and fell flat on its head. It was a film with false pretentions. The other flaws were the character sketching of Aamir and some average writing. So what could have been a masterpiece was reduced to a mundane Bollywood masala film.

On the other hand I liked Dabangg totally because it was a good masala film and did not try to be anything but that. But then this is only my opinion :-).
