Saj72278 I can see how if you actually paid money to see this in the theater and were expecting to view the first major Bollywood blockbuster, you would be very disappointed, and a 0-2 star rating would be understandable. However, my husband and I watched this last night on Netflix, so our expectations going into it were quite different than those of other reviewers.I don't know how my husband decided on this film other than it had to be listed under Sci-Fi, because otherwise he would never choose something like this. I walked in the room as the characters were breaking into song for the first time and laughed. "You're watching a musical?!" "I don't know, this is the first time it went this way." I expected him to immediately turn the movie off after the schmaltzy, young lovers suddenly broke out into a schmaltzier song, but for some reason we kept watching... and watching... all the way through the entire odd, even at times excruciating, three-hour production. Why?The hero and heroine of the story, two young lovers named Sana and (I can't recall the boy's name), were simply flat characters, but so are every prince and princess of all the classic fairy tales as they were originally written. It doesn't mean such a story can't be enjoyed, it just means you have to put more of yourself into it, or appreciate it on a more metaphorical level. Despite a lack of character development and a lot of predictability, we still wanted to see exactly how the happy ending was going to play out.The original concept of this film is great - a modern-day, Bollywood interpretation of The Time Machine, except instead of futilely, repeatedly returning to the past to try to keep his lover from dying, the young beau overcomes that snag by retrieving her from the future instead (in reincarnated form, of course). And there's a nice, little paradoxical twist thrown in. Our hero who was the thrill-seeking loner turned to mush by the sweet, goody-two-shoes Sana, is now the softy who has to win the hardened, self-absorbed, doesn't-need-anybody future Sana (now named Zeisha) all over again. The main problem of this film is its complete lack of editing. It's like a 90-minute teen romantic comedy and a 90-minute Sci-Fi/Action flick pasted together. If they could've stripped the romantic development down to just the basics, running at around half an hour, and then spent an hour on the Sci-Fi and action, this could potentially have truly been a Bollywood blockbuster. The hero's father and other elements should have been cut from the beginning, and the villain, Dr. Hoshi, was completely unnecessary to the second half, for example. The stereotypical, genius scientist uncle and generic siblings I can deal with. (They actually fit with this type of storytelling.)So, long story short, a great Sci-Fi/Romantic story concept that was beautifully rendered is botched by poor or nonexistent editing. What could have been a Bollywood blockbuster is reduced to at best a guilty-pleasure "bad" movie, as there are parts that are enjoyable if cheesy, if you can sit still that long. Love Story 2050 gets an A for concept, an A for effort, an F for editing, a B for effects and a C for everything else - so I think 6/10 is maybe a tad generous, but overall fair.

lucidlad To think had they used the money to make this movie to open a factory in a poor village and provide jobs how it could have helped so many people. It is just so bad on so many levels.1) Every character is incredibly annoying or outright useless. It is a bad sign if you start wishing for the main character to die a violent death 5 mins into the movie. The rest of the cast is equally infuriating...from the annoying teddy bear robot to the ugly whiny kids.2) In 42 years India has progressed that much? If this movie was called Love story 3050 I would have forgiven the future scenery but this is suppose to take place in a country where cows are still used as main methods of transport by a lot of people and buses get packed to a point of tipping over circa 2008. In 42 years the world has mastered hovercrafts, hologram technology, materialization etc etc? Looked more like New Jersey 2050 than Mumbai.3) The plot makes no sense what so ever. The main plot, the sub plots are all entirely ridiculous. This movie can used as an example to teach in film schools why professional writers are still an important part of the movie making process.4) If you're going to make a sci-fi movie it is not a good idea to take 1hr and 30 mins to get to the sc-fi part. The first half of the movie is bogged down with utterly useless courtship scenes. Like many others, I actually started to check if I was watching the right movie.5) The Hero of this movie can't act. I've seen box of rocks with more range than this guy. He is the poor man's version of Hrithik Roshan. Why won't the new Bollywood understand that having muscles does not equal talent.6)Priyanka Chopra is very hot. Nothing else to add to that...she is smoking hot.7) I am convinced Gulshan Grover if defaulting on his mortgage payments and therefore is accepting any role which will pay to keep him from losing his home.8) I want my money back.

shuvro There was huge expectation from LOVE STORY 2050. Special effects, new hero Harman Baweja, hot Pryanka Chopra, outdoor location and big budget, it surely deserves a lot expectation. But I am really shocked on this movie. The plot of this movie is very lack of soul. Its a romantic movie by genre but I yawned uncountable times during very emotional romantic scenes. The screenplay were extremely awful and untouchable. The robots and special effects will surely make you cry. Even I started playing snake games in my mobile while watching this movie and crying into myself why this crap is not finish yet! Harman Baweja, looking good, very promising, got potential but he copied Hritik Roshan so much that I couldn't even find him in the movie. His acting, dancing, even the talking style, all were copied like a stupid. He should be himself in the future. Pryanka Chopra looks great all the time and also her role here will annoy you all the time. Its the worst get up I have seen her ever. Overall the whole movie sucks. Director Harry Baweja is not worth to be a director. This is total loss of money and time. His only average hit movie is QAYAMAT which is shamefully copied frame by frame from the English movie "THE ROCK" . Some people rated this movie 10 here. I don't know who they are. Hope they are the crew of this movie. If not, then those people should be find out immediately and treated in mental hospital. If you want torture someone,punish someone, then gift him a DVD of this movie. But for God's sake, don't watch it.

davinci_loves_movies This is the worst movie I have seen even in my life. Seriously, I don't know who gives cameras and money in the hands of such moron clowns, who ultimately end up making movies like this. It is a mass torture. Every single second in theater you will suffer and suffer.Direction is pathetic. Even a 3rd grade student would have better direction skills. Harman is a pathetic actor and all would agree that he is a promising duplicate of Hrittik Roshan. I guess in future, his bread and butter is secured, for he can do all the duplicate stunt scenes for Hrittik. He does not know how to act. With his silly acting (remember 'chap- chap' in rain water??) he tries to woo a mature gal.........lol.....I mean even a teenager would laugh on such stupid wooing acts, and call a cop instead.Inspired by many movies...namely collage guys holiday trip (Dil wale dulhaniya le jayenge), Kris, Koi mil gaya (the time machine touch), i-robot( the robot assembly line), flying cars (fifth element), energy sword (star wars), and the list is endless. The director thought that he would copy all the tits and bits from different movies, and nobody would notice?? Sorry, Harry Baweja, we are not morons like you.Most annoying is the 'Hinglish' language used in the movie. Please, even village people don't like hinglish. Even they prefer to speak either Hindi, or English....while in the movie, all the actors (especially the hero) speaking I don't know what language. To look 'cool' and 'sophisticated' you need not to screw you language. He is such a moron, that he even says "Jesus Christ" despite being a hindu! This time he really jumped out of his briefs...........lol Robots are so ugly. Scientist uncle is so annoying, main villain looks more like a clown, kids are really irritating........I hate this movie....and I had to leave the theater even before the movie finished........after all I had to live for the rest of my life.Please IMDb, introduce some negative marking system, so that stupid movies like this can't go boasting upon their 1 ratings.
