Featured reviews
A loose story with twists which though intended to bring out awe and thrill instead just ends up disgusting the audience with a senseless and illogical plot. It all starts with a business man played by Arbaaz Khan getting a call from a kidnapper demanding a ransom of 50 lakhs to free his wife . Later revealed that it was a setup by his wife to test the loyalty of his husband planned with a protagonist played by Kher who she befriends in a bar . Seems to be an ordinary story until the time all those twists are un-curtained which sound way to far fetched and completely put off the audience off to an extent level that you just want to leave the movie midway.
Sikander is new, and so is Neha. We gotta take it a bit easy on them, come on people. Sikander didn't act bad, and neither did Neha! Of course it's a different thing than Arbaaz Khan doesn't know acting... The storyline wasn't bad...but the soundtrack was humiliating, no doubt. Woodstock Villa, the opening of Sikander and Neha to Bollywood, is, overall, a treat to the eye and the ear. The small twists were little bit expected, but the overall effect was surprising still. If you take my opinion, then if you like movies which pass your time easily, and have a bit of thrill and suspense in them, then go for it. A brilliant cinematography, choreography, beautiful editing and a good production and direction will leave a good impression. The strategy of the whole storyline is good. 6/10 - not a bad start for both the newbies. After all, Times of India gave it a *** and a half...Can't be that bad can it, when Jannat and Bhoothnath got a ** and a half each? Hoping for something better from both next time. Nice try Hansal. Not a bad shot.
I'd too much expectation from this one, but it turned out to be a real letdown and the most tragic experience. The plot has been frequented and the execution could only have made the difference. Considering that director is Hansal Mehta (dir of "CHHAL" which wasn't outstanding, but nevertheless, was far satisfying than expected), I felt that though the plot isn't fresh, the execution will be effective and make the movie worth watching. But again, I was wrong. It's been handled in the worst way it could have ever been. All the songs were totally unnecessary and were purely intended to extend the duration of the movie, since a movie needs to be more than just an hour. Otherwise, the topic fitted the best for a TV series episode {I remember having watched many TV episodes with same plot, however can remember only one series name for now and that's "SURAAG" (produced by Adhikari Brothers; Sudesh Berry playing the lead role) and "APRADHI KAUN" with Ashutosh Rana playing lead role}.
With the director and script at their worst, most of the actors too tried to match up with them and delivered their worst performance ever (especially Sachin Khedekar). I can't understand why Sikandar (Kher) chose to begin his career with such a disastrous movie script. Anyways, his acting suited his choice, it was also as worst as the movie, if not more!!! There's no point in discussing Neha Uberoi, Arbaaz Khan and others' performances.
If you haven't watched this movie as yet, you're quite lucky and do yourself a favor by not even considering to watch it. Save yourself from a tragic experience by skipping Woodstock Villa, a movie which truly deserves to be in a trash box.

With this one "Bollywood" has once again proved it keeps on wasting lacs of money to introduce youngsters who can't act, can't dance, don't even look good and most unluckily aren't backed up by good storyline. I went to the theater with lot of expectations from Sikandar(Unfortunately I never saw him in the newspaper, magazines) who is related from the family of great names like Anupam Kher and Kirron Kher. In the end I could only say if you don't have a good face for Hindi movies you must know how to act and how to dance (Unfortunately, my dear, Sikandar, you know nothing of them!!). The whole story is based on a kidnap/murder, which is rather comical than being a thriller. The music scores are pathetic and I must add the songs are not required in the movie at all. And specifically I just don't want to discuss about the storyline because there wasn't any real story behind, it's all real CRAP!
Unbelievably stupid amateur effort.
Complete waste of time. Of the 10 people in this theatre in London tonight where I watched it, half walked out midway through the film. I hung around thinking surely things would improve since the plot and direction had hit rock bottom....and how wrong was I...they kept digging.
Songs are pointless except one catchy tune. All the songs are out of place though.
Film's plot is embarrassingly stupid. The director has gone overboard trying to make this a classy project. The production team must be living on a different planet to think that this movie has anything good to offer. I am so upset wasting my time that I would term this film as a real TRASH.
The direction is AWFUL!! Real amateur. A smart kid can do a better job with directing this. 'White Feather Films' - I'll be wary of them henceforth.
GUYS STAY WELL AWAY!!!!!!!!
