Insipid and Messy
While Bollywood has learnt to officially remake hollywood flicks instead of just shamelessly ripping them off, we still are miles and years away from creating sensible indianised versions of these. Brothers, a remake of Warrior, is a messy affair that just does not engage at any level.(more)
