2 States (2014)
2/10
Lost Opportunity-Shows weak characters
28 April 2014
Two States- The problem in the movie was not people from two states falling in love and trying to get married but in fact was alcoholism, domestic violence, and dowry. The movie made no attempt to educate the general masses about these social issues rampant in the society instead everyone acts as though they are part of a certain culture and acceptable norms in certain cultures.(especially north) Instead of reporting the dowry case to the police the heroine just negotiates with the bridegroom to accept what he is given. BS! Lost opportunity to show how an educated girl can be assertive and take action. No attempt is made by the hero to end the domestic violence in his house or to curb his greedy mom and her likes from trying to get the highest market value for the boy. Bollwood should make an attempt to be more responsible, as the masses in India are heavily influenced by what they project as acceptable norms. Personally, I was very disappointed with the movie. Come on people we are in the 21st century, just adding more bold kissing scenes is not enough.
