What do you get when you take an 80's style plot, steal Batman and Iron Man's gadgets and use them, have 80's style item numbers and a few skimpily clad women and loads, I mean LOADS of leather?
Prince.
Of all the leather clad bollywood heroes, Vivek Oberoi a.k.a. Prince definitely steals the cake for the most clueless. Every five minutes finds him standing(read: macho posing) at rooftops, hilltops and other tops staring into space or at something... Songs pop out of nowhere and you're suddenly confronted with bikinis and bikes when you least expect it!
Oh! AND he NEVER gets hit by a bullet!! He's even better than Iron Man! At least Iron Man got hit. He can't afford to. So Prince just keeps running and running and bullets spark off everything visible on screen except him. Even at point blank range, he manages to pull of a leg sweep before the bullet leaves the gun!
Mr. Rajnikant, are you watching? I think we have a thief for you!
What Kan't Rajni do? From the looks of it, manage to shoot Prince!
Corny dialogues, a highly predictable plot with some pieces of action thrown in for taste; watch with your best of friends for a laughter riot. And if you manage to notice, there are hundreds of shots fired from the same gun, yet they never are reloaded!
On a positive note, the wardrobe is quite good, women are relatively hot and although sparsely used, gadgets are cool and totally recognizable from Hollywood counterparts.
Two stars for sheer amount of laughs shared during the movie!
The question shouldn't be, "Is it good or not?" it should be, "How bad is it?" Action we saw in yesteryears, dialogue we have been listening to from earlier than that. The lameness of a story and its execution, of course, has been taken to a new level.
Switch channels if it's on cable!
Deep political subtexts, exciting scientific insights and a roller-coaster ride is what Prince is all about. Unfortunately, its way ahead of its time and hence, grossly misunderstood.
Himesh Reshamiya or Rahul Mahajan would have been the best choice for the foremost character of the movie ‘Prince’ – Prince. The always-ready-for-revenge style of Himesh Reshamiya (that terrified people after ‘Karz’ released and coerced one particular young man from Benaras to believe that his present life was a reincarnation of his last life in Los Angeles) or the smarts of Rahul Mahajan of maintaining the same expression for every scene (horrible, tragic or funny; remember ‘Rahul ka Swayamvar’?)
This movie is not bad.It delivers some good fun to enjoy it.It is brainless action thriller which entertains you.Yes action is worthy and most of part film grab your attention.This type story is not seen in bollywood yet that is why i like the movie.Although it is better than average flick.Music is awesome.I think movie should not be that expenses too much money is spend on unnecessary scenes.
That gonna be a mistake.As it not going recover its expensive cost through theater run.Please have cost management guys.
