Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi!

Mahesh Manjerekar was a top director with VAASTAV and KURUKSHETRA and ASTITVA and slowly he begin doing cheap films

this is one of his crap films

The film has a plot which mixes Mr.India and many more but it's handled very cheaply the villains stand out like cartoons of course even in KMG type films they do, but here the comic scenes are too childish

The film has lot of stupid scenes which are too childish

forced songs plus some weird comic scenes between Sanju and Shahid and both competition in making weird faces, weird tones

Mahesh is at ziltch here Music is okay

VFX is okay

Sanjay Dutt hams in his role though he is likable in parts Shahid copies SRK in many scenes and hams it badly Amrita Rao annoys

Average music, average acting, not to mention an average script, and lastly, average directing. I was expecting a lot more from Sanjay Dutt, as I love his movies. Sadly, I was disappointed. The only half-decent thing is the plot. Its not a ripoff like many Bollywood movies, and has some originality to it. Note that I said some, not all.

Shahid Kapur is appalling, he does a horrible job and does not fit into character at all. Amrita Rao does not do anything apart from looking pretty, and I raised my eyebrows with Arshad Warsi's performance. I like him as an actor, he has done great roles, but I don't like this one. The character was very fake.

To sum it up: VLHTA is mostly a film that we will be enjoyed by kids. There isn't much point in the movie at all, its what I would call "rubbish". Even Sanjay Dutt's incredible presence could not save this movie.

I like Mahesh Manjaraker's movies. Viruddh for example was so well made, I went expecting at least a decent movie. But for me this was a terrible waste of time. This movie was torturous at best.

But of course, if you have liked Main Hoon Na, you probably would like this one too. There are some nice visual effects but they are used out of context. The story is confused. It has got elements copied from Sound of Music, Ghost, Bruce Almighty and also from Hindi movies like: Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke and Brahmchari. But there is no blend.Characters doing anything at times and the story going in every direction.

This movie, had some interesting parts and if it was properly edited, could have saved us from a lot of torture.

If you go in expecting a serious movie, then you need help. It is easy to tell from trailers that it is a family/kiddie movie, nothing more. It makes you laugh a bit, has some nice songs (and some very nice music every-time that Yamraj is entering) and is not supposed to be the least bit realistic. The movie is made for the family, enjoy it that way. It's one of those where you have to leave your thinking cap at home. If you analyze it, you'll hate it. The movie is not made to be thought of like that. The trailer lets it be known that Shahid Kapoor is killed, and you can guess by the story line (and by previous reviews) that he'll go back to help his family. That's what the story is about. He has a sister, who needs to be married off. There is Amrita Rao (once again, the actress gets little scope), who loves him and was going to marry him or something. All the youngsters, who just lost their older brother. Dadi, who needs dialysis and all; and the family has no money. And the evil guys, who all want their house. It is after all this is introduced that the movie starts. Though the ending is expected, it still provides laughs. I still get kicks out of Yamraj and the music that plays in the background.

The movie is mind blowing. That is it blows your mind off. A terribly pathetic movie for which i have no words. Shahid Kapoor acts and talks like SRK. Each scene, pose of him will remind you of SRK, is that his tribute to SRK. huh. he is so bad at everything.

The story -- mix-up of things. In the very beginning of the movie they tell the movie is gonna be nothing other than scary-go-round around Aadi (played by alarming Shahid).

there is a desperate attempt in the movie to look cute with its scores of uh-huhs and oh yeas! in which they terribly fail.

everything is bad about the movie -- just about everything. e1 in case someone writes to spoiler about the movie one won't be able to Reason 1) the movie is already spoiled 2) no one can survive the entire movie -- I ran out of the hall in the middle.

after every scene i kept shouting - Interval - AND NOBODY IN THE HALL MINDED. but the movie breaks for interval after torturing 90-100 minutes.

Yuck! why does not IMDb have -ve rankings.
