Dude Roast
One line review: Dude tries to please both progressive and regressive audiences and fails at both - while succeeding at being shallow. 1. A woman proposes and the man she proposes to cracks a bawdy joke. Progressive: Woman proposing - appeals to progressive audience. Regressive: Man uses a blue film reference to the kneeling position - appeals to regressive male audience. 2. Kural proposes marriage to Agan without even asking if he has mutual feelings for her. She assumes that he loves her because he's her first cousin. I saw this in Romeo Juliet as well. How can people assume such things? It's like an arranged marriage setup - everything works presumptuously. 3. Nuptial thread isn't important - what's important is the girl's heart behind the thread - then proceeds with a dialogue that yarn can't thread a needle without the needle's consent. Honestly, it was exhausting and confusing at the same time. The film tries too hard to round up divisive audiences...
