New Delhi: Most of us who saw the 2010 action comedy 'Knight and Day' fell in love with the funny, brave and witty protagonists -- Tom Cruise as the sexy but rogue federal agent Roy Miller, and Cameron Diaz as the charming June Havens.
Now four years later, filmmaker Siddharth Anand is ready with the official remake of the film, starring Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif. 'Bang Bang', which has the look and feel of a slick and expensive action comedy with a dash of romance, will hit the theatres today.
Will Hrithik and Katrina be able juggle the romance and action like Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz? Will the item numbers and romantic songs compliment the fast-paced storyline? Prajakta Hebbar of IBNLive.com is in the theatre to find out.
9:44 AM: Stay tuned for the Tweet Review of #BangBang, by @imsopraj
9:46 AM: Directed by Siddharth Anand, #BangBang is an official remake of #KnightAndDay
9:51 AM: #BangBang opens with #JimmyShergill, an Indian army officer, talking hardball to Danny Denzongpa, a seasoned terrorist.
9:56 AM: It is a delight to see #JavedJaffrey in his element :) #BangBang
10:02 AM: #KatrinaKaif's on-screen dadi has serious boundary issues! Haha! #BangBang
10:09 AM: It is a little hard to imagine #KatrinaKaif as a sad, single pahadi girl, who resorts to online dating. #BangBang
10:11 AM: @iHrithik is juggling action, charm and humour perfectly so far :) #BangBang
10:26 AM: We were wondering how #BangBang will add songs in a tight storyline (like #KnightAndDay). But #TuMeri appears organically and dramatically.
10:38 AM: By the way, we're totally in love with @iHrithik's ripped jeans and blazer look. And the Ray Bans of course :)
10:41 AM: Maybe we spoke prematurely. The song #UffMereDilMein is quite unnecessary. Meh. #BangBang
11:04 AM: Slick product placements aside, #BangBang is fast-paced and action-packed so far.
11:06 AM: It is interesting to see that apart from songs and filmi dialogues, #BangBang has stayed true to the original storyline of #KnightAndDay.
11:09 AM: Oh dear. @iHrithik ACTUALLY says "Darr ke aage jeet hai," in #BangBang. Goodbye, subtlety!
11:21 AM: #KatrinaKaif's on-screen dadi refuses to give any quotes to the media without consulting her lawyer. Waah! #BangBang
11:34 AM: Sigh. #BangBang has lost some of its pace post interval. Chiefly due to the song #Meherbaan.
11:38 AM: We have rarely seen an on-screen kiss shot at such a great close-up. Too close, almost. #BangBang
12:02 PM: The background score in #BangBang is too loud at times. We get it, @iHrithik kicks some serious ass. Enough with the screeching already.
12:04 PM: Revenge bole toh #NashikDhol! Woohoo! #BangBang
12:13 PM: Of course @iHrithik finds a F1 racing car to hunt down the villains. Su-eet. #BangBang
12:15 PM: We doubt if @iHrithik did these many stunts and action sequences as #Krrish. #BangBang
12:18 PM: It is @imsopraj's opinion that Bollywood villains take too long to die.
Too. Damn.Long. #BangBang
12:25 PM: After a super-emo scene, #BangBang ends with all ends neatly tied-up, in a true #Bollywood style.
12:26 PM: #BangBang is full of thrilling action sequences, stunts and two good-looking protagonists.
12:27 PM: Slow in parts, #BangBang is a true #Bollywood adaptation of #KnightAndDay.
12:27 PM: Don't expect a mind-blowing storyline, and focus on the thrills and frills. You'll have a good time. #BangBang
12:28 PM: Thank you for staying with us through the tweet review for #BangBang####
