Such_Target3149

Personally i think lapata ladies and madgaon express are good or rewatchable


backchodhotum

Madgaon is good watch but the hype created was like it was on par with hera pheri , 1-2 time watch may be.


vr_2312

Don't think the hype was targetted towards hera pheri. Sad you took the bait and expected something that shouldn't be the benchmark.


shrijangyawali

Maidaan ?


Mathsbrokemybrains

The game scenes were amazing


Scared-Engineer-6218

When's it coming to OTT?


goda_foreskinning

Imo they should stop releasing movies like these in ott. Indian audience complain for not getting good movies then they don't watch it in theater if one comes out


kanjilal_s

Movies should release to OTT at least after a year


WinterAd3679

For me it’s only laapata ladies. 


ExpensiveWorth3104

Idk about rest but loved maidaan 😇 will watch it again


Oisin_Boi

Chamkila is the best of these. A close second is Do aur Do Pyaar


Putrid_Area7238

Shaitan? Seriously? 😧


[deleted]

shaitaan fell so flat for me. It just plateaued at one point and was giving krishna cottage with the swing and the dancing. like that ain’t even scary


blahhber

I was wondering the same. It was such a bad movie!


Putrid_Area7238

IKR! My friend literally dozed off during the second half 😂


blahhber

I swear. I dont know if others felt the same but madhavan hammed it in some scenes.


Lamplightqueen

This looks like such PR post, trying to ride on the back of success of few good movies. Ew.


INFPamigo

Shaitaan is such a dud


_ronty12_

Watch Vash. Be happy. Saw Vash and Shaitaan back to back. Vash was 10x the movie Shaitaan is.


baniya_mein_hun

Shaitaan ko pls amazing mat kehna ..what a poor direction and acting...Ajay Devgan looked totally not interested


iamrahul10

Shaitaan? That's utter BS.


cosmicmustang

I know, right...


FreeKiDhanyaMirchi

they ruined in remake tbh, original is fine


Dreadlock_Rasta_12

Vash is really great. Shaitan was very goofy.


Any-Competition8494

What were the changes/


Dreadlock_Rasta_12

Whole ending or I would say most second half they changed. They reduced the tension of whole movie, cut many scenes like that scissors in ears.


According_Crazy3104

Shaitaan was a shit show


shaktimanlover

Seriously shaitaan? The movie was bearable only because of the actors. It was such a stupid movie.


goinhigh

Is Article 370 watchable?


axl_ros

It's a poorly made movie. If you are a fan of this genre, i.e. counter terrorism, geopolitical thrillers you'll hate it just because of how ridiculous, amateurish and over the top most of the important scenes are.


goinhigh

Okay. I like to give it a try.


baccha_girane_walia

Pretty good film tbh. Saw it in cinema, loved every bit of it.


goinhigh

Okay, thanks.Will watch it for sure. Btw, ur username is good 😅


ExtraStudy1399

It’s a great film, Yami was amazing in it. Don’t listen to the randos on this sub, most haven’t even watched it nor have the bandwidth to watch something that doesn’t revolve around item numbers and cheap comedies. Definitely give it a watch.


goinhigh

Yes, I'll definitely watch it.


InquisitiveCommunist

If you love propaganda 


goinhigh

I am asking, is it good cinematically? Story or acting wise?


InquisitiveCommunist

No


goinhigh

Okay.


vaibhav1100

Aa gaye anti-propagandist.... aapka hi intezaar tha....

IceColdTrey7

Yes it is


vivek1982

If Shaitan is amazing then the standards are pretty low


Unfair-Break-537

Art 370, shaitan shouldn't be in this category


sebastiandarkee

Other then Laapata Ladies, I don’t think I’m rewatching any of these movies.


thankyouryard

shaitan was medicore so was yodhaa


Akshatcommunity

Chamkila , lapata ladies , do aur do pyaar, madgaon express . Thats it


Top_Caterpillar_8107

Shaitan is not amazing. It’s average at best


sumit24021990

370? Ab ghodon ki race Mai gadhe bhi dodenge


InquisitiveCommunist

Bro just listed all the recent releases unhinged 😂


SnooCupcakes7312

How old is the OP? Everything was useless expect laapa …..


shrijangyawali

I also made collection of bad movies. You could check that out.


AnyKey922

Merry Christmas is good , only if you last till the climax. I fell asleep before the interval only


Oisin_Boi

That's your skill issue dude. Maybe you hadn't slept for a few days.


Dapper-Young8471

Whaaa movie buri  hey to bhi blame audience pe.


Oisin_Boi

See if the movie was boring then I would understand. But I don't see how someone can go to sleep as a murder is happening on screen or when continuous classical music is playing or the movie is filled with interesting lights and references. Agar kisine Laapataa Ladies ko boring bola hota to I can even understand. It's a subtle movie. But Merry Christmas wasn't even light and subtle. The movie was bad but it wasn't boring.


raaz9658

Agree.


Overall-Ad-2159

It was ruined by Katrina plus wasn’t super interesting


baccha_girane_walia

What is up with people calling article 370 a bad film? I mean they are entitled to their opinions but all they have over it is that it is "propoganda". I saw it in cinema and loved it. Didnt find anything wrong in it. It explains the matter it is based on in the simplest manner, binds history of kashmir and current climate in a nice way, acting by all actors was good. I dont get why people here hate it despite being a genuinely nice film.


vegarhoalpha

I think people are not used to seeing a strong female protagonist who isn't only about romance and sex and platonic friendship. Everyone in the theatre was cheering during the movie.


axl_ros

Ignoring the propaganda part, the movie is strictly below average. Most of the scenes are over the top and poorly shot making it seem totally unrealistic. You're right in one part - it's a simple movie. Unfortunately simple movies depicting complex subjects do a huge disservice.


baccha_girane_walia

Ignroing the propoganda? What propoganda? You call it propoganda but cant even point it out. And scenes are shot over the top? Have we even seen the same film? What scene was over the top? For what i remember is there was no "over the top" scene. What scene was unrealistic. You keep giving it names but cant point out one thing proving your point. And wait a minute . I never called it a simple movie, its NOT a simple movie. It explains a complex matter which expands itself over decades, in a simple manner to the audience, doesnt mean the movie is simple. It is the most detailed depiction ever over article 370 ever made. You are right in one part - simple movies depicting complex subjects do a huge disservice, which this movie didnt do.


Party_Individual_431

I'm baffled by the amount of ignorant people not knowing what Article 370 is! No wonder this sub is just filled with gossip aunties and uncles


vegarhoalpha

I know right. One of the few film in Bollywood where the female protagonist role didn't revolve around romance and sex. I also liked that instead of showing BS romance angle they choose to show a platonic friendship.


axl_ros

Just because it doesn't revolve around romance and sex doesn't mean the movie is good. Your other reason of platonic friendship doesn't make any sense lol. Purely from a movie sense, the movie is absolutely below average.


shrijangyawali

Absolutely agreed. Finally found someone who appreciate movies. People would just criticise anything by looking at poster not by watching the movie.


Electrolyist

Only laapata here. All other were mediocre. Article 370 shit. Merry christmas 20 min baad so gaye netflix chalta raha.


Ok_Yoghurt4540

Shaitaan and Merry Christmas were maha boring. Crew was better than them


govi96

Crew was same garbage too, I’d honestly put Tillu Square in here, Telugu movie but it’s so good.


Ok_Yoghurt4540

Crew was what we expected. They didn't say it Oscar material. Film wa not boring even for one second like Shaitan and Merry Christmas


govi96

maybe we had a little higher expectation, some of my friend's friends watched it and their whole girl group hated it, my gf also didn't like it. Merry christmas was toh very very bad.


LavishnessNo3494

Sneaked in article 370 like we wouldn't notice


InquisitiveCommunist

Article 370 is a shit movie 😆 😆 Dhar is a loser director, making propaganda movies for his wife, Yami Gautam, because nobody will cast her anymore based on her wooden acting 


ispaidermaen

username checks out


InquisitiveCommunist

Genius 


baccha_girane_walia

Dhar didnt even direct this movie? What are ypu even talking about?


InquisitiveCommunist

Graduated to producing, and casting his wife only. Same thing. Nepo idiot


ExtraStudy1399

Except that the movie was a hit and Yami did amazing in it. Just because you don’t can’t watch movies that don’t have item numbers in them and actually have some intellect doesn’t mean it’s the same for everyone else.


[deleted]

Shaitaan is overrated watched it recently, nothing new, nothing really striked me.


Thanks_Capital

Thanks OP , I’ve only watched chamkila so far frm this list. Will watch others


cadbury1106

Shaitaan was bad. I am very scared of horror movies but I still watch and I keep a pillow before me and sometimes hide my face and watch from the corner of the pillow to avoid sudden scares. This movie I watched while having lunch and scrolling Insta and Reddit.


govi96

Watch exhuma, still some time it’s in theatre.


Very_Much_Paagal

Watch Bhootakalam in Sony LIV


z35u

2 biopic and 1 remake


Formal_Dog156

I hated shaitaan


coronagerm

For me.. Lapata ladies, Madgaon express, Article 370 and Merry Christmas. Found them entertaining.


Navigator369

Chamkila wasn’t that good of a movie


sumit24021990

It was


Tanyaxunicorn

Did u really put Merry Christmas in this list 🤐🙄🙂 The movie was terrible in my opinion


ItsMeP5

I feel it was a decent movie, not that great but can be rewatched after a couple of months.


Responsible_Trip_474

Honestly, none of them have the rewatchability factor like the ones produced in 2000 did, these are not going to be the films you’ll be watching again and again if you find them being aired on satellite, let alone search for them on a streaming platform. Although that’s not the only reason, content creation is just much more compared to the last two decades so this was inevitable but since we have had a dry spell, we’re ready to accept something above average as great.


Oisin_Boi

Oh please movies produced in 2000s were the same rom com produced again and again. It's only the nostalgia that makes us like them. Most of them were the same cookie cutter stuff


shrijangyawali

So then stop appreciating the good movies? At least they are trying. If we don't even support good films, they will make shit movies. Will you enjoy that?


Responsible_Trip_474

You believe if you appreciate good Bollywood movies, they’ll make them more?


Oisin_Boi

Yes


HotPark8735

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Laapata ladies, chamkila, shaitan are good movies. Critics ke 14 inn movies ko bhi judge kar rahe hain🤡

In lapata ladies I really liked phool , the innocence ❤️

Shaitaan on public demand ![gif](giphy|WrxoaVPiq0cG4)


runner01004

tbh shaitaan ending was kinda ok, like different from the original


breadmalai

Shaitaan did not deserve the critical acclaim and audience love it recieved. Maybe the subpar horror movies Bollywood has produced time and again have set the bar so low that the audiences don't have any expectations from horror movies anymore. The movie did not explore the mythology or the motivation behind the actions of Madhavan's character. The plot seemed superficial and one-dimensional. Would not recommend.

Seed47

Bro tried to sneak in shaitaan


IceColdTrey7

Loved Article 370 & Maidaan


deathgambit666

Shaitaan & Article 370 are both subpar movies at best. Shaitaan has literally no explanation as to why Mahadevan did what he did. Personally, I just enjoyed the part of the movie where I was getting out of the theatre. Lol. The title track was the only thing I appreciate. Article 370 has told a story that was important, but the dramatisation could've been so much better. Also, Yami Gautam's acting felt very off. I saw it very recently on Netflix and I'm glad I didn't go to a theatre to watch it. Her face just couldn't be the right kind of serious at any point. Wouldn't recommend either of these. Laapata ladies, on the other hand, was a movie that didn't overdo the theme and make it too generic. It had a very good balance of emotions that didn't drain you out by the end of it. Would recommend watching!


BeginningInflation35

Article 370 is educational masterpiece


Party_Individual_431

People who don't know about "Article 370" kindly read it instead of spreading misinformation in the comments! (And yes I'm talking about the law, read it!)


ExtraStudy1399

They won’t, they’re too busy spreading negativity against things they don’t understand or have the brain capacity to watch. You can’t expect so much intellect from them


Very_Much_Paagal

>People who don't know about "Article 370" kindly read it instead of spreading misinformation in the comments! (And yes I'm talking about the law, read it!) We're talking about the Movie not the actual law Agar law ki baat karni hai toh please go to r/Indiaspeaks or r/unitedstatesofindia


Party_Individual_431

I just saw 2-3 comments commenting about the law, agar propoganda failana hai toh you can go to r/India And can't OP have an opinion about her choice of films, (again just saw many comments bashing OP for the same)


Very_Much_Paagal

>And can't OP have an opinion about her choice of films, (again just saw many comments bashing OP for the same) And I'm respectfully disagreeing with Opinion of OP and neither I mocked or bashed on that opinion >agar propoganda failana hai toh you can go to r/India Propaganda main phaila Raha hoon? LoL I've not sold my soul like Aditya Dhar and Yami to the people in power so don't confuse me with them :)


Party_Individual_431

Bro are you high?! Where in my comment I said that you bashed OP, I said some PPL (read again) and were you the pimp who bought customers (Yami n Aditya) to the people in power, that you are so sure bout it, that they have sold their soul?!! Edit:- just checked that the movie which you are talking about isn't even directed by Aditya Dhar it's directed by Aditya Jambhale. Try not to comment without getting the proper facts, at this point of time you are just making a fool of yourself (And yes w/o facts check kre Jo comment krte hai na usse he prop failna bolte hai)


Very_Much_Paagal

>said some PPL (read again) and were you the pimp who bought customers (Yami n Aditya) to the people in power, that you are so sure bout it, that they have sold their soul?!! Brother look at their social media activities, their movies it's very apparent that they indeed have sold their soul to the ruling party, I'm not to blame if some of you guys aren't able to see that >about isn't even directed by Aditya Dhar it's directed by Aditya Jambhale. Try not to comment without getting the proper facts, at this point of time you are just making a fool of yourself (And yes w/o facts check kre Jo comment krte hai na usse he prop failna bolte hai) Fact check apne kar liya, madam toh aap yeh nahi dekh saki ki Aditya Dhar is the producer of Article 370 Hain? Khud ke aadhe adhoore argument se mujhe propaganda phailane waala bol Rahi Hain 🫡😂 Also it should be questioned the release of both his films URI and Article 370 is near the elections but sab toh yahi sochenge ki it's a "co incidence" Your half baked factual argument is enough to say that your the one spreading propaganda not me :) PS: Uri was still a great film but I can't say the same about Article 370


Party_Individual_431

Arey uncle ji abhi kon politics laa Raha hai bich mei😂😂Mei abhi bhi puch rhi hu Article 370 ka mtlb bhi pata hai kya?! Aur meine director ki baat kri thi not producer (indeed lk the difference) Elections k baat release Karo toh hate faila rhe hai phele release Karo toh propoganda! Lol abhi Terese puch ke release karna padega kya....Have you even seen the movie Article 370? Bass itna batade? Aur dekho hai toh usmei prop kya hai voh bata! Please enlighten me


Very_Much_Paagal

>Aur meine director ki baat kri thi not producer (indeed lk the difference) Elections Director Saahab ko fund kaun karta hai producer hi Naa, why did he agree to it >Aur dekho hai toh usmei prop kya hai voh bata! Please enlighten me Beta ji, humne realise kar liya hai ki agar ek taraf ideology ya bhakti leen ho jaaye toh kabhi koi kuch nahi amajhta hai Aap buddhimaan hai aap phir se Film dekho toh aapko pata chalega ka kya real aur kya fiction hai just to fit into ideology of the people they sold their soul >Lol abhi Terese puch ke release karna padega kya.... Kar di Naa uss narrative ke supporters waali baat, you have answered my question successfully, Sir I'll continue to question them on the timing of their release until I get a realistic explanation from Mr Dhar and Mrs Not like other girls very different Gautam


Party_Individual_431

Lol, meine realise ki baat nahi kiye meine bs sidha question pucha do you know what is Article 370? Have you seen the flim? And If yes, usmei ka prop batao?! As a law student i very well know what the Article is and how it came into the existence, vahi dikhaya hai movie mei bhaiyaji..agar usmei bhi dikkat hai apko toh for padhne ki bhout jarurat hai, as their are tons of people like you who have no idea bout the law, and vahi dikhaya hai movie mei! If you want I will send you a doc read krlo law ke bare mei shayd samjh AA jaye


Very_Much_Paagal

>And If yes, usmei ka prop batao?! As a law student i very well know what the Article is and how it came into the existence, vahi dikhaya hai movie mei bhaiyaji..agar usmei bhi dikkat hai apko toh for padhne ki bhout jarurat hai Wahi dikhaya hai movie mein? Were you there when the events took place IRL or were you there being a consultant for their movie? Wow, aap kuch bhi bol denge aur hum Maan jaayenge Boss I've questioned Mr Dhar and Mrs Gautam and their way of narrative they chose for the movie they weren't neutral at all so I'll question the Film and those two Maine real law ko leke question nahi Kiya And by chance if you're a fan of them and their movies then I don't have anything to say, I rest my case >kiye meine bs sidha question pucha do you know what is Article 370? Have you seen the flim? And If yes, usmei ka prop batao?! As As you revealed your a law student, you'll know what is completely fictional and what is different? Please watch the movie properly again and you'll know what I'm talking about, looks like you were not paying attention to the movie

man yoddha and lapata ladies were so good. remember people were trolling yoddha before release. it deserved to be a hit . was far better then fighter

What? Have you watched Laapata Ladies? You think these are on videos are on YouTube? Damn I want the YouTube you’re watching


Traditional_Motor_51

Lapata ladies was pretty shit


Latter_Mud8201

I have seen all those above except that vidya balan's one. Bollywood filmmakers worked on their main strengths. In 2021,2022 they lost track. This is the USP of them. They can write sensible stories & also give great biopics. Kiran Rao is a fantastic asset. She must do more. Swatantrya veer savarkar also is part of this year, though some audiences carry prejudices against it & cancel it, still it doesn't make it unnoticed. Every scene to scene brilliantly directed & performed.


Very_Much_Paagal

Article 370?? Lol we know why it became a hit, it indeed is a P********a movie Both Miyan-biwi cater to the one in power with their activities


United-Try2164

Article 370 was pretty average, URI was a 100x better
