A Movie: Bombay Velvet (2015)

Bombay Velvet has glimpses of Tarantino's touch in multiple scenes (which is good), and also shares the lengthiness of his movies (which isn't the best thing). You have to really listen to every dialogue, and observe each scene if you are looking to tie up loose ends. Commendable performances except for the leading lady (thank goodness that she had few dialogues). Adored Raveena's cameo (they should've casted her instead of Anushka) and KJo's debut performance (he has presence). Lovely retro songs and background music, blending in with the perfect costumes and slightly sepia backdrop of the 60's Bombay. Typical gangster movie with a stale plot, but the rest of the elements make up for it. And Ranbir only keeps getting better!
