Reviews
You won't be disappointed!
To me, this movie is perfection.
One of my all time favorites.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
By and large,I agree with the precedent user :it's a bit a missed opportunity.When Louise is alone in her room ,hearing screams and shots ,we do feel her terror : we are caught in this macabre hide-and-seek ,we are shivering :the treatment recalls sometimes "panic room",but with a big difference:during Louise's terrifying ordeal,we never see the terrorists ,only their shoes in the corridors ,and our fear is all the more intense since danger remains faceless while making its presence felt every second.By the same token,the scenes with Giovanna ,the woman on honeymoon,are full of emotion and human touch ;both women stand by each other,and it helps them get through their nightmare .The moment when they embrace each other is perhaps the most moving in the whole movie.(Now,I'm speaking of the actors and obviously,not of the real life characters)It may be the directing or the script,but the father figure is a namby -pamby man, his wife ,a woman who sings lullabies (which infuriates her daughter ,and considering the impending fire,who should have known better);as desperate parents ,they fail totally to convince ;one could add that in the first part ,Louise appears as a spoiled child ,not particularly endearing ,and we only side with her in the second part.The first part is mostly filler : a tour in Bombay,please remember the guide!As the Greek user already pointed it out ,the third part is desultory ,and we could easily do without it;only the phone call to Pierre makes sense .It would have made an excellent 45 min movie;artificially stretched out ,it does not make it as a 90 min one.Watch it anyway:its central part will scare you to death.
November 2008. When her parents go out for diner, Louise, 18-years old, finds herself trapped in a room of the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai during a terrorist attack. Taj Mahal is not a bad film by any means and for sure it's not a 5.6 kind of movie but unfortunately there was way more tension and story in the trailer than the actual film, as far as acting goes Stacy Martin gives a really good performance but the story lacks the shocking effect that it wanted to pull from the audiences hearts and there's way too many scenes that i couldn't even see anything. Also the movie has like 3 or 5 different endings that i honestly didn't like that much and kinda ruined the movie for me. It's not a bad film it's just that the story it tries to tell it's not as effective as maybe it wanted to be and that's why i'll give it a 7/10.
