Tubelight

I just saw Tubelight now on Star Gold HD. To begin with, I really do not understand how critics operate. Nor why Tubelight did so poorly at the box office.

This is such a watchable movie. The story was interesting, the locations were fantastic, the acting good, the cinematography exemplary, even the songs were catchy .... what more is required for a film to be entertaining?

At worst I could say that it stretched a bit, just a bit, and perhaps there was too much music. The story is meant to be fictional and every film isn't meant to depict absolute stark reality. Tubelight held my interest, made me laugh, made me smile and even made me cry my heart out towards the end ... just before the happy ending! Salman was great as Laxman and the little child Matin was adorable. Om Puri - I think his last film .... may he Rest In Peace. Every actor performed well.

I enjoyed Tubelight and I am really glad that I do not choose to watch films based on critics reviews.

Today I thought that I should watch this movie so I booked tickets for the movie. The show was at 12:00 PM. When it was the time for intervals I was regretting my decision.Salman does not know how to act and he was annoying. I suggest you not to watch this movie and waste your money. I think it's enough for now Bollywood is intolerable

Being Salman Khan comes with a responsibility, sometimes that turns into : i'll do anything and fans will still watch. The original movie LITTLE BOY is so honest as we can believe a small childs fantasies and innocence. but tube light seems like forced. the easiest way to gain sympathy is by showing the protagonist as a non matured kid, innocent and childlike. we have had a long history of that in bollywood, gain sympathy by showing some rare disease (pa, guzarish, barfi) or show non realistic themes.

locations and cinematography is wonderful, so is the other cast. Om puri and the little child. rest it just feels like a safe bet by kabir khan, put a goody goody world and ppl will grab it.

of course one can't argue with salman fans as they get personal in case anyone criticises the movie. how ever it's more important to understand who exactly are they helping in this case, their IQ or Salman Khan

Complete copy of Hollywood little boy. Pathetic acting n screen play. Torture for audience.Songs r average. How can someone make these kind of movie. Worst movie ever. Story line based on self believe. But after seeing these movie everyone might lose their self believe.Film is very slow nothing happens only a pathetic actor who pretending of a dumb boy always crying.

It is difficult to believe that a Director with good track record can node yes to lead such a lame story and screenplay. It seems that someone else of his name has directed the film. Director must be aware of the lead actor strength because of his long association with him but in this movie he totally exposed actors weakness. In emotional scenes sometimes lead actor looks funny sometimes irritating. All characters and actors in film look visibly alone even being connected to each other. Film is so slow that you pray to its end in climax. First they punch you irritating assumed emotional pre climax then kick you with childish climax. That shoe exchange excuse is so stale and repeated. Kid looks cute but then his name was kept, thinking it is funny but repetition of his name sounds eventually filthy. Background gun shots sounds as cannon shot. I just cherished a moment when lead actor throws ash and second lead actor runs and then diffuses as ash. Performance wise all good actors are wasted. Especially lead actor doesn't fit this character.
