Teesri Ankh - Cheap thriller at its best!!!

Have you ever watched a movie completely and then wondered why the hell did you watch the movie at the first place itself?
I did today! I watched "Teesri Ankh" on DVD ;-)
I wouldn't say that the experience was bad. But it might not, for obvious reasons, suit everyone's palate.
The following sections may contain spoilers. But, I am certain that no one will mind. Coz I trust that none of my readers are crazy enough to rent out a Sunny Deol DVD.
It was extremely supportive of one of my roomies, Mr X, to watch the movie with me. Thank you Sir.

;-)
I had a wonderful time listening to your expert comments than the movie itself.

Coming back to the movie, I am going to tell you the story of "Teesri Ankh - The Hidden Camera".
"Villians" have become more technology oriented. They use hidden cameras to capture innocent people in compromising positions on video.
Good Cop, Sunny pra ji is engaged to voluptous Neha "Julie" Dhupia.
Neha wants to do something BIG so that Sunny ji can be proud of her. So she goes to "Videsh" for a beauty contest.
The Villians take some nude pics of her while she is in the changing room. She is blackmailed and not allowed to leave "Videsh". Our Good Cop, starts an investigation in Videsh to expose the crimes of our Villians.

The Villians split, have a fight, and our poor gal Neha dies in the process. This death is witnessed by our mute herione Amisha Patel. By the way, Mr. Black wants me to tell you that it was good that Amisha did not have any lines. "She cannot act!!!" Well that's what he said.

Now our mute herione is the only witness to the crime, and finally meets our Good Cop.

Good Cop fights all goons. He kills them one by one.... ;) with the typical Sunny Bhais "Dhai pound da mukka" ke dhishum ... dhishum .. dhishum. Add to it amazing super power kicks too which he uses to kick away villians and cars alike....And icing on the cake Sunny can even stop and pull apart motorbikes with his bare hands.
;-) I am telling the truth. You have to watch it to believe it!!
And thats where the story ends.

It is a Humpty-Dumpty movie. You definitely know that they are going to fall, but still wait it ;-). Very very predictable with some really out of place item numbers. A Jazzy B track!!! LOL. Who hears Jazzy B anyways?

The movie will bore you to death if you do not enjoy some desi action. If you have seen as many B grade thrillers as I have; you might actually end up enjoying it.
Make sure that you have people around you who are ready to whistle and dance at every fight and cliche'd sunny bhai's monologue.

Mr. X hats off to you for making this movie viewing so interesting. We were laughing and whistling more at the cheap action stunts then anything else.

Hurray!!! Sunny pra ji is the MAN!!

Cheers.
