Have you heard
the story about King Bruce and the spider? The one in which King Bruce is
thrown out of his kingdom and hides in a cave.
He sees a spider that keeps falling off while building a web. King Bruce takes inspiration from that
incident. Comes back and wins his
kingdom. The story of never giving up
that has inspired a million lives.
What they didn’t
tell you was the spider’s name. I can
say, with a whole lot of conviction, that the spider was called Vikram
Bhatt. I am serious. There is a whole amount of thought that has
been put into this hypothesis. I have
seen every Vikram Bhatt movie over the past 7 years to arrive at this
statement.
That spider from
the King Bruce story may have fallen off a zillion times before building its
web. Much like Vikram Bhatt has continuously
fallen over the past 21 years of attempting to make a half decent movie. But Vikramji hasn’t learnt to ever give
up. Never ever give up. Someday.
Maybe someday soon, I will make something that can actually be called a
movie!!!
More power to
you Vikram Bhatt!!! But let me make a reference to a dialogue from this – your 28th
attempt at making a movie – “They are vultures.
But I am not a dead body yet”!!!!!
This is what Ahaana (Bipasha Basu) says when almost all is lost in her
fight against the Bramha Rakshash (Brahmin Monster).
Unfortunately
for Ahaana, she couldn’t look beyond the screen into the audience. The vultures were definitely circling waiting
for the last stab into the already mind numbed audience. An audience that had killed itself with
laughter – thankfully – in reaction to a story that surpasses all previous
benchmarks that Vikramji had set for himself.
Creature 3D (not
that the 3D makes any difference whatsoever) is about the Brahma Rakshash
referred to a few lines before. Thanks
to a highway (which has never been shown in the entire movie), the BR’s sacred
abode i.e. a Peepal Tree is chopped down.
Now, homeless,
the BR has decided to make a meal (literally) out of the hapless villagers and
of course the inhabitants of the Glendale Forest Resort owned by Ahaana. The local police express no interest in
solving the series of deaths. They
attribute it to a maneater leopard (do they exist in Himachal). Of course, the onus now falls on our heroine
and her new found love interest Kunal (Imran Abbas).
Like all his
previous attempts, Creature is hilarious.
It is great fun to watch the meek attempts at horror. Go with a bunch of friends and you will
probably have an awesome time. Surely,
that was the intent when Vikramji made this movie and of course his previous
attempts as well. How else can one
explain more money being put into his movies? 2 on 10 for the humour.
