Review of The Bong Connection (2006) by Ritesh S — 09 Jul 2007
It's not the typical song, dance and hullabaloo; neither does it fit the so called 'crossover' cinema bill. The Bong Connection is yet another product, resultant of the need to create a non mainstream, meaningful film yet bound by the need to be an outright commercial success(such a paradox).
Comedy is the essence with which the film has been treated. Serious and complex issues are dealt with humor and cynicism. While this is fresh, the commercial stints are seen throughout, making it on the whole a restrained watch.
On the whole The Bong connection moves slowly and encompasses too much, it's great in parts and that's about it.
