FITOOR (2016) Blu-Ray from UTV

[Hindustani]

Believe it or not.

Not even on DVD first.

!!!! straight onto glorious full HD 1080P with Dolby Atmos !!!!

This super flop is releasing on Blu-Ray on 03/30/2016 even before WAZIR (03/31/2016).

Dunno if its the power of Hurricaine Katrina's long legs that beat legs-less Bachchan to BluRay release.

[mrbrat_Boy]

Wow, Now that's a shocker of note.

Amit Trivedi's score is the only plus in this otherwise mundane, regressive movie.

[kaykaysud]

Makes better sense if you view the film as a sci-fi film set in Kashmir, where two androids struggle with the complexities in their newfound emotions, and the creator of one of them tries her best to keep them apart in order to test their compliance for Asimov's laws.

I agree Fitoor was a very boring movie , unanimated acting aditya roy kapoor lacks passion as an actor, the script and story was very dull. Yet any blu ray release that is quick is a victory for us, and its good news so i will get it.

Waiting for Bajirao Maastani anxiously, hope its out quick

ofcourse we are all happy but thats besides the point.

How can a superstars-less movie get a release on BRD for Rs 1350 ($20) retail this quickly when no one saw it on big screen for Rs. 110.

Not even a single memorable charbusting song in FITOOR.

Imagine how much yearning for SAAJAN (1991) in Full HD and Lossless audio with average story and every song is memorable chartbuster.

Pip is a 6-pack b(e)aring model type and Estella is a mannequin. Enough for me.

[nitin]

fair enough, but it's by Abhishek Kapoor isnt it? That's enough for me to try it out at least.

^ Do you think Director can do magic if there is no script/story/songs in the movie? We have many big names (Directors) which couldn't do anything with average movie plots. Subhash Ghai is one from them.

Can Anyone Know Hate Story 3 BD50 will release or not ?????

Directors cant do magic but they can elevate films, at least IMHO.

As for script and story, this is an adaptation of Great Expectations. It may be a poor adaptation, I dont know as I have not yet seen it, but as the source material is one of the all time great novels, I dont see how you can say it has 'no' script or story.

Songs, I personally dont watch movies for songs. I know many people do but I dont.

Lastly, I dont think Subhash Ghai is a good director, at best he is very very average. We have not had genuinely great directors for a while now in indian cinema. Many popular and big name ones yes but that's a different thing.

[Anurag1700]

I may be sounding too generalistic here but i find the subjective nature of this field so exciting, that I feel even if everything is right, still everything can go wrong and vice versa as well if you know what i mean. Essentially thats what the magic means.

I used to go by director long back that 'this guy's work may be interesting even if bad' but ultimately i gave up on that too. Now i firmly belive someone or some team of filmmakers who made the best film of my life are perfectly capable of making the worst one as well. I just need to wait

Of course, if lot of people are working on a movie, they expect that to be good. That's different thing if it doesn't turn-out good. It's one of them.

It's completely your/our choice to whom we like or not.
But saying AK is enough for you who failed as actor and did 4-5 films in his entire carrier (16 yrs), only 2 were good. And don't think Subhash Ghai is good director, VERY VERY average who did lot of chartbusters, but it doesn't made sense to me (IMHO, no worries).

Mostly Agreed.

Most of the average and good directors cannot be innovative and rise above the scripts EXCEPT

1. Hrishikesh Mukherjee
2. Mukul Anand
3. Sriram Raghavan

Mukul Anand's developed exceptional shot exectution technique. He was also technically ahead of his times for Bollywood. From SULTANAT (1986) to AGNEEPATH to HUM to KHUDA GAWAH to TRIMURTI (1995), you can see how innovatively he can build drama and create tension with camera angles alone.

Sriram Raghavan is today's Mukkul Anand. He is the most technically innovative film maker working in current bollywood. AGEND VINOD was boringly horrible. Raghavan's direction and shot execution is outstanding. When a director of his calibre gets JOHNNY GADDAAR like script, he can be a world calibre competing with hollywoods best easily.

In 1970s, I think Mukherjee was ahead of his times too. His scripts mostly depended on his excellent direction but was limited technically.

Others like Yash chopra, Subhash Ghai are mostly overrated. Although Ghai has one or two exception with KHAL NAYAK. Chopra cannot even rise with a good script (DEEWAAR, TRISHUL). He direction never stands out.

[Hindustani]

I also believe Shekhar Kapoor is underrated in Bollywood.

Shekhar Kapoor's direction is outstanding in MR INDIA and clearly complimented Salim-Javed's remarkable script here.

I dont believe Mogambo's character was only and solely a brainchild of Salim-Javed screenplay. Kapoor must have been innovative in getting the best out of Amrish Puri with various improvisation technique.

I wasn't surprised when his ELIZABETH (1998) was nominated for Oscar Best Picture. Story was decent. Kapoor's direction is outstanding and lifted the movie close to greatness with improvisational performance by Cate Blanchet.

I can imagine kapoor blanchet speding hours to get performance right.

Ironically, Blachett won Oscar. Kapoor was even robbed of Oscar nomination for Best Director.

To each our own, but I dont see what making chartbusters has to do with quality. Are Rohit Shetty or Farah Khan quality directors? Each has put out many chartbusters.

Also re Abhishke Kapoor, I am not saying he is a great director or anything even remotely approaching that, just that his last few movies have been the sorts of films I would like to see more of from Indian cinema and so I will give this a try.

[prepress]

Farah Khan and Rohit Shetty are not directors, it's a big word for them. They are no where near this name.
For a good movie, I never see how it did on Box-Office, I and many don't like superhits (PRDP, Dilwale etc.) and like Titli, B.A. Paas, Ugly, Maanjhi-The Mountain Man etc.

In 90's when I saw Ram Gopal Verma's Shiva and Raat. I noticed he did something new, he was technically ahead with time. Then Satya, Kaun, Company (not Rangeela for me). But later don't know what happened, I am not sure if any of his employee was working on earlier films and later left the job.

@Hindustani, Sriram Raghavan did two great films (Johnny Gaddar, Badlapur) but remember his first movie? Yeah, it's RGV's Ek Hasina Thi
(In the search of new employee he found Sriram Raghavan)
