Life in a Metro : by Anurag Basu

Message for all City Dwellers ... come into the reality of a Metro ... life is a race not a morning walk....

The movie throws light on the above aspect in such pratical way that you feel one is living the movie itself

The way the stories of couples are interwined in a maze of Emotions , Deceit , Infidelity , Loyalty , Detachment , Courage , Love and Hatred is par excellence ...

The best of the lot is Irfan Khan and Konkana Sen's chemistry which exudes innocence and at the same time imparting deep lessons which will leave indelible marks on the cinegoers psyche!

Kay Kay Menon,Shilpa Shetty,Shiny Ahuja bring out their best performances in a complex relationship tangle.

Sharman is awesome in an ambitious yet "down to earth" guy's character caught in a whirpool of bonds with his Boss, GirlFriend, Landlord ...

Kangana looks tired in a different role by her standards. Her look is pretty refreshing though.

It s hard to point the negatives but Dharmendra and Nafisa's lost in love therapy was not required !!

The movie throws light on every aspect of an individual trying to find his or her identity in today's fast paced world trying hard to strike a fine balance....

Tears,Laughter,Anger ... you name it has myriad of emotions ... kudos to the director for handling it with aplomb..

As far as the music is concerned , breakthrough tracks in terms of guitar riffs and rocking feel given by the newly formed band Metro headed by Pritam ( of Dhoom and Dhoom2 fame)

Memorable Sequences : 1 . Climax itself 2. Theater Play Sequence 3.Beach Side Convo between Irfan and Koko 4. Sharman's matchmaking exercises brings the house down!

Watch it for sure .. I have seen it twice already!

Rating: 4.0/5.0

sahi hai Tanny.. you have outlined the movie very effectively.. I was also trying to write something abt it.. but couldn't.
The movie was truly awesome. and irfan's role was too short and we could easily see much more of him..
But nevertheless, each and every actor's performance was excellent.
