Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
nnk-39990 I still can't believe havent watched this movie , Priyanka nailed it , she proves that no one can beat her she truly nails her role so well , she's just fabulous , love you PC !
Cinephile404 One of the best dark thrillers Bollywood has offered, 7 Khoon Maaf is a stirring, dark film. The film deals with Susanna (Priyanka Chopra) who, in her quest for 'true love' murders each of her husbands one after the other (played by Neil Nitin Mukesh, John Abraham, Irrfan Khan and many others). The story starts off with Priyanka Chopra holding a gun to her head and from there on, the film has you in it's grasp and doesn't let go of you, even hours after it had ended. The film follows a similar story line throughout - Susanna finds a husband who later is almost inevitably dead - and although it does not get boring at any point of time, I almost start to wonder whether the ending too will be quite the same, but it does not disappoint. Many thrillers have a good body but disappointing endings. 7 Khoon Maaf is not one among them. The acting is nothing short of amazing. Priyanka Chopra's acting is effortless and is definitely one of her best. The actors playing the husbands are really quite good too - Neil Nitin Mukesh and Annu Kapoor are particularly outstanding. Watch out for some others who appear in the movie - Ruskin Bond, Usha Uthup and Konkona Sen Sharma.Although I don't generally like songs in thrillers, I'll make an exception for this film. 'Darling' and 'Oh Mama' make good additions.With a great story, different from the usual, and excellent acting, 7 Khoon Maaf is definitely worth a watch.
rsa5387 Saat Khoon Maaf is a daringly different film that falters under the weight of its own ambition. Bhardawaj has taken great care in crafting the aesthetics; every frame is splendid, from staging to cinematography and costume/sound design. From the panoramic vistas of Pondicherry, Kashmir, and Moscow, to the hushed, dark tones used for the grittier portions of the tale, the film is dripping with ambiance and style. In Bhardawaj style, this is a dark, brooding work in lieu of other genre favorites such as Sympathy for Lady Vengeance & Kill Bill. Though not as hyper-stylized as those films, 7 Khoon Maaf has a far more engaging, drawn out plot that is involving and emotionally fulfilling, yet ultimately disappointing due to a few of the stories being half-baked. At times, it seems that Susanna's (Priyanka Chopra) faults with each husband she eventually murders is of her own vocation, stemming from rushing into one affair after another. For the majority of the film, however, the outcome of these relationships is rightfully on the masquerading male, each with a fatal flaw that is hidden until the knot is tied. The ultimate problem with the narrative is not with the flaws, but the majority of her husbands are not fully developed, for the most part their personalities and actions seem archetypal and single-minded. To Bhardawaj's credit, the majority of the supporting characters are three-dimensional, especially Susanna's adopted son Arun & her servants. Moreover, Susanna's emotional plight resonates and the conclusion is affecting and satisfying. Priyanka Chopra owns every frame of the film. Susanna's character is one that is rarely seen in Hindi cinema, her ability to display the complexity and various shades of Susanna across a period of sixty-years cements her position as an actress of great depth. While this is by far her best role, this is not Bhardawaj's most accomplished film. As daring and innovative as the theme and treatment of the film are, the lack of depth afforded to Susanna's husbands ultimately affects the films narrative and emotional quotient. Even so, the screenplay is engaging, the film looks decadent, and Ms. Chopra's brilliant performance is worth a watch and a few accolades.
saur-78 The build up to the movie made me believe that it could be a thriller that would keep me on the edge of the seat but did not turn out to be. And it was not bad either.The movie is all Priyanka. The only men who made themselves noticeable were Irfan Khan and Anu kapoor. I like the part at the end when she says "she is going to drink the blood". I like the sound of it. The movie builds up as if to make you expect that something chilling..eerie may happen but it doesn't.I watched it for Vishal Bhardwaj and Priyanka and was not completely disappointed. An original attempt by the group but i will say watch it on DVD.
