3.0 out of 5 stars
Enter this apartment warily, January 3, 2010
This review is from: 13 B (Bollywood Movie / Hindi Film / Indian Cinema / DVD) (DVD)
The good news or is it that this movie has been sourced by a leading Hollywood studio for a remake. How the tide turns after recycling countless Hollywood movies Bollywood is inspiring studios in the West. So how is the movie? It depends.
Madhavan and his brother are upwardly mobile and pool their resources and buy a lavish house for themselves in a multistory building. Their apartment or flat number is 13 B. As soon as they move in trouble starts brewing starting with the milk turning sour every day. Then the family gets hooked on to a TV Show called Sab Kairiyat. This show strangely echoes Madhavan' s life and gives him a preview of what's to come. Some of the scenes are scary and the direction is passable. The resolution could have chillier. If you like horror movies, then this is lite stuff but still enjoyable it could have been scary. Madhavan is okay playing the frantic person, rest of the cast are all sugar filled. Poonam Dhillon is wasted and miscast as the mother. My opinion could have been scarier and a bit shorter. I gave it 3 stars. 02/01/10
