So it was another go for lagaan, the movie, I hadnt been able to see the movie yet, though I have tried for it several times.. Everytime, I miss the movie due to some or other reason.. Today I had another try.. and ended up watching a totally different movie.. The Swordfish..
Finally a moive where villian wins. I have always been irritated by bollywood villians, who always has to lose in the end. Bollywood villians can kill any other character, except the hero, with just a single bullet, but even when the villian sprays the bullets at the hero and out comes the hero, unscathed by any of the bullets.. to bash up the villian and make the story totally illogical.. (oops!! I forgot.. logic and Bollywood movies?!! A wild stretch of imagination??!!)
Swordfish was a good “time-pass” action movie, and a thriller too.. In the movie Jhon Travolta asks a question to the hero.. I asked the same question to some after the movie.. The question goes something like this.. “you will be offered permanent cure of all the diseases of humanity., but in return you will have to kill an innocent child.. will you do that?”
What would you do?
