If only I had had the good sense to turn of the DVD after the intermission. Because the first half of Out of Control is pretty good. The story is very simple. MILD SPOILER Indian boy goes to find his fortune in America. The twist comes when there he falls in love with a gori 'exotic' dancer and singer. In India his proud father however has found him a nice Indian ladki. What makes this first half entertaining is its humor, the fact that tradition is thrown into the wind and the fact that you can relate to the actors.
The second half is the exact opposite because the makers of this movie didn't have the courage to follow through with the story. As a result all of the characters start acting out of character and in stead of loving them we start intensely disliking them. The only constant factor is Amrish Puri who sticks to his role like a stamp to a letter.
Watch this at your own peril!
