Played
(2006)

Beats U-Turn for Worst movie ever.
New contender for worst movie ever. Do not be misled by Val Kilmer's name appearing in the credits, he appears for all of one minute. Reminiscent of Executive Decision's posters who made it appear as though Steven Segal played a central role in the film (even though he disappeared after 5 minutes).

The film has no plot, no story, no point. Worst of all, it has no ending. To date I had listed U-Turn as worst movie ever, but I think Played has taken the bottom spot. It reads as a gangster thriller, but none of the scenes are backed up. They appear more like events that follow each other rather than integral parts of a story. No climax is built up, the love story is stated but never portrayed. Characters dart in and out before any portrayal is required. All in all a complete waste of time.

Best advice: DO NOT WATCH.

The Hero: Love Story of a Spy
(2003)

Good Movie (except for Political Mishmash)
Sunny does a good job. Politics are the only thing that stand between good and great. Pakistanis are not evil. Muslims are not evil. Kashmir is a land blighted as much by ISI as by the Indian Army.

That said, there were some problems with the plot. However, those used to Deol's fanciful movies will ignore this oversight.
