Now, one thing that i would like you to ask yourself is without those shots bursting in your mind, would the film be any thing more than a plain old biography. you must keep in mind that the film is not only about sprints and records, it also reflects a very turbulent period in the Indian history. And now, even if i overlook the historical part, the flashbacks impart originality to the film. Excuse the director, put yourself in his place, while narrating incidents, don't you suddenly move on to another event of your life in times gone by and then again come back to the old one? Perhaps you should try Christopher Nolan's film 'Memento', if I am unable to make you understand what I want to communicate.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280248311372033269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7883305335930464476.post-64613591272444706342014-02-09T03:25:52.296+05:302014-02-09T03:25:52.296+05:30First of all BMB was a great movie, just a tad lon...First of all BMB was a great movie, just a tad long. Better than most Indian movies.<br /><br />India with its huge population is GENERATIONS behind numerous tiny countries in sports, which is a shame (according to me), courtesy red-tapism and politicians.<br /><br />Great review Asmita. Appreciate the amount of research which has gone in to etch this review. Had you been a bit lighter on ROPM (director), few readers would have been happy...<br /><br />Another minute negligible slip in the movie was that Milkha rides a Royal Enfield Classic Desert Storm (launched in 2010) during his journey to Govindpura in 1960.

And definitely the casting could have been better (Art Malik and even Yograj Singh as the head coach).<br /><br />All in all, I would say a very honest review by you...liked it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00561605033794900368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7883305335930464476.post-55114193562166802352013-10-14T09:59:23.145+05:302013-10-14T09:59:23.145+05:30Thank you so much! :)

But most importantly what disappoints me is the RUNNING . The film could take a few points from Chariots of Fire where the coach actually talks about the techniques and real science behind running. In this film they only show Farhan running like a mad dog in training .....blindly running with sole intention to sweat and get tiered .<br /><br /> But having said all this , when compared to the current quality and content in Hindi cinema this film ROCKS.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7883305335930464476.post-78500803745914258152013-08-19T16:12:05.756+05:302013-08-19T16:12:05.756+05:30Non-linear narrative has been successfully used in...Non-linear narrative has been successfully used in many acclaimed and award winning biopics throughout time. It perfectly 'WORKS' for a biopic.The real problem here being, the complexity related to its usage. To be honest, Mehra did a decent job using this tool which is one of the most complicated when it comes to direction. Accepted that the plot meanders at times. I feel the real problem was the duration and inclusion of some really unnecessary sequences like the 'ghee drinking' or the whole Sonam Kapoor part for that matter.

Unnecessary it was, for depicting a story being-worth-told on the big screen. I kept swinging between his childhood flashbacks and the present ongoing track. Non-linear narrative structure works for some 'kind' of stories and not for others. BMB comes in the latter category. At least for me. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14594088067941359602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7883305335930464476.post-44100470721036718822013-07-24T00:44:56.918+05:302013-07-24T00:44:56.918+05:30About the non-linear narrative structure, I rememb...About the non-linear narrative structure, I remember Christopher Nolan's Memento.

I couldn't really make out the point of the film (didn't give it a second try), but I guess the beauty of some films lies in it's complexity.

So many scenes meander,so many scenes are taut. Crisper writing and esp a sharper edit may have helped.'<br />This is exactly what I have pointed out in my review.
