Thanda response to Mallika's 'The Myth'?
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,September 19 2005]
Has Mallika Sherawat's international debut vehicle 'The Myth' met with a cold response in Toronto International Film Festival where it was premiered on 15th September?
If initial reports from the festival are to be believed, the story and script lack lively scenes for most part with the biggest weakness attributed to Chan's flat act in the emotional scenes. If audience accepted him to be as funny as he has been in some of his recent action-adventure films, then that doesn't seem to be case in 'The Myth'.
As far as Mallika is concerned, she seems to have stolen the show wherever she gets any screen time [which is believed to be just about 15-20 minutes], though even her role seems to have suffered from some weak writing.
Having said that, there is good news for all Mallika's fans worldwide. The prime reason for which one goes to watch Mallika is very much present in this Stanley Tong movie as well. So go check it out for yourself!
