36 China Town: Movie Review

Rating: 2/5

First thing First; ‘36 China Town’ is no way comparable to 1974 cult classic suspense potboiler ‘Chinatown’ starring Jack Nicholson. 36 China Town isn’t even a thriller. 36 China Town is at best a moderate masala film with a medley of songs, comedy, romance, murder, suspense, bikinis and bums.

Abbas-Mastan who gave us hit like Khiladi, Baazigar, Soldier, Humraaz have a strange habit of dishing out half hearted attempts like Daraar, Baadshah and more recently Taarzan: The Wonder Car. At 36 China Town, loaded with an atrocious script they again find the going tough, try too hard and eventually mess it all up. (more…)

Model-actor Upen Patel’s popularity is growing so much so that he already bagged six prestigious projects even before his debut release - Abbas Mastan’s thriller ‘36 China Town’ also starring Akshaye Khanna, Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor.

Apparently Patel has been getting plenty of offers but has been cautious in his selection. The actor said, “Yes I’ve been meeting a lot of people but it’s too early to confirm details. I’m all set for my debut with 36 China Town, and looking forward to its release. I’m glad that the industry seems to be accepting me.”

So far he has been signed by Subhash Ghai, Ashtavinayak films, Sunil Darshan, Tips, Shyam Bajaj’s next and Vipul Shah. (more…)

A promotional video of Abbas Mustan’s 36 China Town has been shot where people will get to see, off screen couple and lead pair of the film Shahid - Kareena shaking legs with Chinese dancers.

This Subhash Ghai and Mukta Arts films video is the remixed title track choreographed by Remo. The song also has model Upen Patel who is making his acting debut in the film. (more…)
