The Dirty Picture
Critic reviews and ratings
-
...is in line for a flood of awards. Vidya Balan will walk away with all possible trophies!
-
A film with a universal theme and terrific mass connect, it has remarkable potential to set the cash registers ringing for one more valid reason -- entertainment, entertainment and entertainment.
-
...a seminal work that will be studied in feminist discourses.
-
Watch The Dirty Picture for the gutsiest, most versatile actor we have today.
-
Get ready for a force of nature performance in Vidya Balan.
-
It's dirty and you'll love it. For its wit even if might seem a little over-written. For its nerve even if the after-taste is that of an under-cooked story. For Vidya Balan because she is entertainment!
-
...reiterates that bold is beautiful. A ballsy entertainer that deserves a watch!
-
...forsakes much potential nuance in its urge to please crowds but is still far more engaging than most Bollywood produce.
-
...the film is recommended for the undisputed Performance of the Year. Take a bow Ms Balan; you make the film worthy of a second viewing!
-
...is in-your-face entertainment that should not be ignored.
-
The film shocks, titillates, makes you laugh, and gets you involved.
-
The film captures evocative montages of the protagonist's troubled turbulent and titillating life. Luckily Vidya Balan's performance comes from her heart.
-
You may have some issues with The Dirty Picture. Never mind because Ms Balan rocks big time.
-
It's an average film made eminently watchable by its courageous star.
-
Silk (or Balan) concludes – There are three things you need for a successful film: entertainment, entertainment, entertainment. Over here, "I am the entertainment." She is absolutely right, beyond first-rate.
-
The writing is confused as to point of view and weightage, and post-interval, like most Bollywood films, 'The Dirty Picture', dives.What makes us watch, despite everything-the overheating, the overwriting-- is Vidya Balan...
-
Balan is The Dirty Picture. From the aperitif to the dessert. Unfortunately, the movie doesn't do her justice.
-
...is just so needlessly smutty, when it sets out to do just the opposite. It's bump and grind without enough perspective.
-
It may do well commercially, but it will remain a wishy washy and yes, exploitative film, redeemed entirely by Vidya Balan's bravura performance...
-
Like most of The Dirty Picture, these supposedly stinging observations are little more than storms in a D cup.
-
The film crumbles while negotiating the thin line between a woman's inherent power and her vulnerability.
