I just watched this film and I have to say I was completely bored by the first half of it. I can’t make comparisons with ‘The Notebook’ as I haven’t had the time to see it yet. I wouldn’t be surprised however, if U Me Aur Hum was a blatant copy of it. The first half of the film was so clichéd and uninteresting for me. There were very few scenes in the second half of the film of which I found mildly appealing. But the whole film just dragged! I found myself daydreaming throughout a lot of it. I guess it’s just harder for Hindi films to capture my attention. I don’t even want to talk about Tamil films… (they’re a whole different story)…
Wow, I had this insanely bizarre day today. First, I have to skip lunch to finish work and then hitch an auto in the heat to the cinema hall. The movie begins late because the previous show, Bhale Dongalu, doesn't end in time. Which means the projectionist starts U, Me Aur Hum immediately after, and there is a small stampede reaching the seats, during which I hurt my elbow a little. Then the seats are in the corner, so my viewing angle isn't that great…
Are you bored yet? Because if not, I highly recommend you go watch Ajay Devgan's directorial debut. But if you were even half....
