Pride is what caused Kaal. I could somehow feel Karan Johar in each and every shot, and the forced acting, the worst use of the wide angle, funny jungle sounds you could buy on a cheap CD, and of course, Shah... Full review

Thriller, wierd film, has 5 a class actors: lara, esha, john, vivek, Ajay.To start off this the song with SRK and malaika was hot. Esha and John are animal researchers and they go to a jungle to investigate on some tiger poachings and human killings. A group of tourists/hunters go to the jungle aswell for a bit of camping and fun. In the jungle there are several unknown killings happening, the star casts get trapped in the jungle and one by one each person starts dying. These killlings are wierd as it is not human and animal doing. Then ajay comes in as a guide for these advernturers, ltlle did they kno that he was the cause of the killings and he is not alive, he is a spirit out for revenge, on those who disobey him and the jungle rules. He warns the adventurers on several aspect but they don't listen and they die.Ajay plays an awesome negative role, his twist is awesome as he controls the jungle and the animals and kills thse who do wrong in his jungle. All die except lara, john and vivek (poor esha dies). Watchable film, prepare to be wierded out

The upbeat mood is retained in the second number Kaal Dhamaal which is an item number shot on Shahrukh and Malaika Arora. While the former is an instrument piece set in the wilderness of a jungle, the latter is more like a tribute to the famous tunes of Karan Johar's previous flicks. ... Full Review
