This week's book giveaway is in the Agile and other Processes forum. We're giving away four copies of The Mikado Method and have Ola Ellnestam and Daniel Brolund on-line! See this thread for details.
Overall pathetic and quite a drag.....brilliant in pieces though. Good performances by Amitabh, Abhishek, Preity Zinta & Rani Mukharji -- Shahrukh is loud as usual!
Unfortunately I watched it on Monday night. The movie started at 10PM and got over 1:30 AM. Man..the movie is too long...toooo long.
First half is watchable..second half sucks big time. Abhishek is best and exceptional, Rani's character does not make any sense, Priety is fine, Amitabh is good, Sharukh is noisy, become old and become irritating. His loverboy image does not fit here.
The script is weak...no not weak there is no script..just some infidelity from Rani
Not worth to go to a theater to watch it...get a dvd at home..believe me you will use that forward button of the remote control too often.
If at all you are forced to go to the theater..drink plenty of booze..and fantasize all the cool babes Amitabh (dude) hangs around...that is the only good part

First they make this kind of movie, so people don�t go to theater and purchase pirated DVD and watch at home. Directly they are supporting piracy by making such kind of movies. [ August 16, 2006: Message edited by: Chetan Parekh ]

How do you figure that? Who is forcing anyone to buy pirated stuff? It's always a conscious choice.
Besides, if a movie isn't worth the price of admission to a theater, then it's not worth to spend two hours time to watch it at all, IMO.

I can't tolerate Shah rukh khan. In his every film its the same. He would cry so much as if the ganges flow inside him.
And now watch him in Don. I'm sure it will be full of hamming and over acting.

Reviews of KANK :-IT style
1. The program *KANK* has not been built as per the Functionality Design Specifications (script).
2. The director should have first created a proper Design Document (screenplay) and then begun the actual coding.
3. *AmitabhBachchan* is a powerful class with a number of methods and functions but it has not been effectively used.
4. *AbhishekBachchan,* a derived class of *AmitabhBachchan*, inherits all the attributes and properties of its parent class.
5. *ShahRukhKhan* and *RaniMukherjee* are emotionally overloaded and go into an infinite weeping loop every 60 milliseconds.
6. The methods such as *Songs()* and *Cinematography()* have been properly executed and produce fantastic results.
7. *PreityZinta* is an abstract class, which looks pretty but actually does nothing.
8. Functions like *ArjunRampal, JA, and KD* pass NULL values and are redundant.
9. The program takes an unbearably long time to terminate? about 3 hours and 20 minutes.
10. Overall, the package is not worth purchasing. You may opt for pirated copies, though.

One more to add in list:
Behaviour of Rani Mukherjee is not well defined.

There is a story in newspaper that a husband killed his wife to marry other woman, after seeing KANK. Director Karan Jhohar had to give clarification on the theme/messange of the movie.
