Remo D’Souza, the director of RACE 3 said before the film’s release, “This is not a film for the Critics”. The arrogance in his voice hinted at the same sad story. A badly made film will again make money at the box-office.
Well, Mr. D’Souza, forget the critics, this is not a film for anyone, not even for the Salman-devotees. And I honestly wish that this time a bad film stays the way it is and not become a successful film.
The problem with RACE 3 is not just that it is a bad film.( that was a given with Remo D’Souza at the helm). The problem is that how brazen and shameless it behaves in being such a dull and insipid affair.
Still then, I went in to see how bad it was and it wasn’t disappointing on that front. The filmmaker’s incompetence was on display right from the start-Excruciating slow-mos, pedestrian dialogues, dim-wit presentations unfolded quite consistently and predictably. The Proceedings kept on going from bad to worse and the arrogance of the celebrated star left no stone unturned to mock the viewers expectations.Almost every character in the movie behaved as a star and not as an actor.Their weird accents added further insult to injury.
Every scene, it seemed was constructed only to glorify the stars, every proceeding portrayed only to showcase the lavish production values and the entire product assembled in a manner as if the makers knew that the audience would be taken for granted.
It is sad to see such extravagant amount of money being splurged on such stale and poor film projects.There is no shame in experimenting and failing. But it’s a sham if they don’t even make the effort.
It is time the filmmaker understands that his competence matters, the stars understand that their efforts and preparations matter. It is time the film fraternity understands that the audience matter.
Don’t watch it and spread the word.
Hurt the film and its makers.
