Bride and Prejudice

So my apartment hosted a bit of an Indian party, complete with saris. We watched this made for America Bollywood film.

Review: Meh. Having throughly enjoyed my first Bollywood film, Kal Ho Naa Ho (see earlier blog), I was disappointed that this film seriously didn't come close to Kal Ho Naa Ho on the enjoyment scale. I was also hoping I would enjoy it more than I did because it was made by the same directors who made "Bend it like Beckham," which I enjoyed; I wasn't enthralled either but enjoyed. There were a few parts that were funny more because of how ridiculous it was (the cobra dance and the full baptist choir just singing on the beach, complete with risers), but on the whole it was lacking.

Bottom-line: As far as my Bollywood suggestions go, Kal Ho Naa Ho is the champion. One could go without this one.
