THE DIRTY PICTURE -MOVIE REVIEW





A director fresh from the success of his last movie, a writer who garnered accolades for his screenplay and dialogues in his last movie, an actress who won a Filmfare for her last movie and a sensational storyline.
Looks like a deadly combo!
But the final product though, is not as good and racy as it looks in the promos and the teasers.

The good thing about the movie is its bare-it-all approach.

Among the other things about this movie, "sex" has been used as a theme but at the same time the mature handling of the theme has kept it away from going down the vulgar lane!

The movie looses the grip just before the intermission and towards the end (it even tests your patience in certain scenes) and that is probably the only fault in this movie Due to this the movie seems a bit stretched.

The movie fails to live up to the huge expectations but it does come close!

There are those OOH-LAA-LAA moments! The dialogues are sleazy at places and are very smartly written. One couldn't help but smirk and lough out loud at some witty one-liners.


Screenplay is not as consistent as it should be for a biopic. It is racy and slow at the same time! Had the screenplay been more powerful this movie could have been the best movie of this year!

VIDYA BALAN-ohh yess! She brings enough oomph and aahhs to the character she plays! What a superb actress! She’s not shy of showing her tummy when the other's are running behind size-zero!
She is "THE DIRTY PICTURE"!! And yeah she's going to get all the awards this time too! No words about her acting. No one could have done as much justice to Silk Smitha's role as she has done Her portrayal of the lonely girl hungry for love and attention is just fantastic. *salutes*

Emraan Hashmi does a good job but there is a monotonous string attached to his acting.

Naseeruddin Shah was a tad disappointing.
Tushhar hardly had anything to do.

Music is strictly ok. ooh-la-la has become a chartbuster. Ishq Sufiyana is hummable.

Direction is good and honest! If only Milan Lutharia could have done a little more justice to the screenplay, this movie would have become a modern day classic.

Enough said. This movie is an out and out Vidya Balan's movie and she delivers her sleaziest and sexiest best!
This movie is worth your time and money.

Go enjoy the ooh-laa-laa moments.
