life is an impressionist painting

bollywood is back, and back with a bang! bollywood, with the physics defying stunts, logic defeating plots, unbelievable vixens, unattainable men, RACE brings it all.
I enjoyed the movie for it's sheer lack of sense and the cliff hanging suspense. the story line was not bad but a little too convoluted for the regular bolly buff.
what i fail to understand is how the women in our movies, (read: bipasha basu and katrina kaif) manage to have their hair in place irrespective of whether they have been showering or driving a convertible! the make up remains 'dior' perfect, in absolute disregard of the situation or time.
the movie was a regular mix of betrayal, tonnes of skin show which, as always, was really not required, except to compensate for the lack of acting skills in the female leads.
it is always amusing to make a note of the way the women dress, in this case, tacky and cheap dressing. does pink boots, red earrings and red nail paint read sophisticated and sexy?? the men on the other hand, (read: saif in particular) dressed impeccably in well stitched suits. wonder how they land up with the most empty of women..
no matter what happens on the personal front, work takes care of itself, irrespective of marriages, 'races', fraternal spats, romance, the work is self sufficient. the offices are plush, but somehow the bigger the business the emptier the office.
the music is bearable most of the times, while otherwise it is just a filler, like when a woman is being interrogated and she is giving her statement, why must a song be featured?? surely there are better ways of showcasing long legs and luscious lips.
men jump around defying gravity, making newton turn in his grave, women run in stilleto heels, suitcases overflow with money, alcohol remains staple, sexiness stays big.
love is all in the eyes, sexy, glamorous and all in the first sight. slit your throat, put everything at stake, die for you love.
the i don't want to lose you, i hate losers, you are the most beautiful woman ever etc etc dialogues shall maintain the light side of it!
let me not spoil this for you, watch the movie for everything it has to offer!

disclaimer: the review should be taken with a pinch of salt. just the like the movie was!
