      a really ugly movie remake

      how can they ruin such a beautiful loving and my all time favorite romantic comedy.Luckily i watched my sassy girl before the ugly ..."ugly and pagli" what a horrible movie they have made, this Indian film industry cant even copy properly horrible ....i watched this movie for 30 mins and i couldn't bear the insult of on e\e of my favourite movies so i had to stop[.....gyus if you really want to watch a great real life true romantic story go and watch "my sassy girl" the original Korean version with English subtitles ... not the Hollywood remake which is not as bad as bollywood ..

      but still if you want to watch a masterpiece go and watch my sassy girl you will find in btjunkie torrent

      Truly "Ugly aur Pagli" movie

      What were the makers of this movie thinking. They thought they could give an Indian touch to the Korean original "Yeopgijeogin Geunyeo" which is a masterpiece by itself. Though I do not understand Korean, I watched the Korean version (with English subtitles) and was touched by every moment in it. A friend of mine suggested this movie and I thought it must be some kind of Korean comedy (with animated expressions). But the end result was totally different. It turned out to be a heart rendering, natural comedy with touching moments and a warm ending. Haven't seen the Hollywood version "My Sassy Girl" but the original is special and probably no remake could recreate the magic of the movie. Ugly aur Pagli is an utter failure in an attempt to do so. Instead the comedy is slapstick and makes no sense in the Indian context. Ranvir has been wasted here and Malika should stick to what she does best (which is not acting). Music has nothing to it, except for probably "Main Talli Ho Gayi". Overall the movie makes a mockery of the original and has nothing much to take back from it.

      Crap Comedy

      Cant understand what to say about this movie. Surely, watching this movie will make you think that this movie is a crap, but the acting of Ranvir Shorey will surely make you laugh. Not only the acting, but the situations are also funny and fresh. But what i think was missing was the right direction, or the inability of Mallika Sherawat to act. Ranvir Shorey has certainly come a long distance and as it seems, he has become capable of being a solo hero, but there is something wrong in this movie, which takes away the charm. Added to that, we have dance numbers, which are forcefully inserted without any reason, Ranvir's funny dancing although he was trying to dance seriously, and the glycerine scenes of Mallika hard to believe. All this have been the offset of the movie. So, even if the situations make you laugh, in the end, you will find that there was nothing new and this was all a bloody crap.

      Very ugly indeed...

      A rip-off of a successful Korean film. I never really understood why certain filmmakers in India have to copy others' films. I do enjoy the occasional films of this category though as long as they are made in their own special way, as long as the elements are somehow changed and the only thing that remains is the basic plot elements, and as long as the film is generally well-made and entertaining. This film has none of it. They put two actors in one piece of a very very boring joke. The film has a Ranvir Shorey, who is generally considered a good actor, hamming and acting like a kid, and a Mallika Sherawat, whom I personally like very much, trying to be cool without success. Nothing about this film is memorable, though I really liked the scenes in which Mallika slaps Ranvir. The film is badly made, the narrative does not go anywhere, the development is dull, and the director seems to have no interest in it. In one word: avoid. In two words: avoid it. In three words: don't watch it.

      An experiment on a borrowed thesis.

      Pritish Nandy Productions comes with another experimental movie after its "Pyar Ke Side Effects". But this time the experiment has been done on a borrowed thesis. The film is a loosely inspired from a korean movie "Yeopgijeogin Geunyeo" or "My Sassy Girl" (2001) which was then remade in English in 2008.

      The story – no there is no story but it's a collection of anecdotes about the meetings between a boy and a girl. Its how the boy is rudely shaken and ill treated by her girl friend and then he keeps on trying to cope up with this strange relationship. The director couldn't catch the right spirit of the movie with no particular scene worth talking about.

      Ranvir Shorey underplays his role but as he doest get any support from the script department therefore fails to impress his fans. He gets very few funny scenes to satisfy the viewer. On the other hand Mallika Sherawat acts pricey and pretends to be the top most actress. She is surely the most sought after actress in one sense but strangely her enigma failed to bring in the crowd this time.

      Musically film has very less to register with one song becoming famous due to its cheap lyrics, "Main Talli Ho Gayi". Here Poetry takes the back seat once again in recent times. In today's competitive world of young music directors Anu Malik will have to rediscover himself once again.

      The promos were innovatively planned with good tag lines but the movie is another example of good promotion but bad content. Seeing some recent flicks its time the makers should concentrate more on the movie and its ingredients rather than on its promotional tactics. No doubt, good promotion is a must but you should not fool the audiences with wrong and misleading promos.
