A fake of a movie - avoid if you can

bibban - imdb.com
An overwrought movie relying almost entirely upon an implausible plot. And before people go on celebrating this movie's "brave" darkness.. watch for the sequence of clichés: alcoholic, abusive husband who suspects wife of having affairs; intelligent and sincere wife who... Full review
Bas Ek Pal is a film I was waiting to savor. I had heard so much about the excellence of this movie, about Onir's outstanding direction, about the wonderful cast. This was clearly a standout movie for the year 2006.... Full review

After running a good trailer and Aatif's intense "Tere Bin" I was kinda curious about Bas Ek Pal. It genuinely sounded like movie which will take a fine look at relationships. This is second film by director Onir whose last... Full review
In mid-August, many an unknowing filmi buff was psychologically impaled in the cinema halls during screenings of Karan Johar's hopelessly awful "Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna" which purported to be a mature examination of extra-marital affairs. It was, of course, nothing... Full review

As has happened so often before, the Indian reaction to this movie doesn't predict my reaction at all. I have to say that Urmila Matondkar makes the most interesting movies! Banaras, Bas Ek Pal, Main Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara, Ek... Full review

Among all movies this year, I was definitely looking forward to this one most. I wasn't let down. The movie is like a breath of fresh air. I don't think Bollywood has ever attempted to make such a movie with... Full review

We are talking about the film 'Bas Ek Pal', the music of which can be counted as one of the best ever for the current year. While Mithoon composed songs like 'Tere Bin' and title song 'Bas Ek Pal' have become a rage over the months, what cannot be discounted is the fact that songs like 'Zindagi Hosh Mein', 'Ashq Bhi' and 'Dheemey Dheemey' that have been composed by Vivek Philip have been priceless gems too. ...

So much so, the film does tend to get somewhat bizarre with the umpteen plots and sub-plots, but for those with a yen for the unfamiliar, it might still work. Watch it for its third dimension: Bas Ek Pal is no ordinary love story. ... Full Review
