Movie review

From Time Out London

Two beautiful strangers (Ranbir Kapoor/Priyanka Chopra) meet on a bridge; they both want to jump off it. They make a pact: a ‘wish-list’ of all the things they would like to do before they kill themselves at the end of the year. He wants to fall in love and lose his virginity; she wants to forget her cheating boyfriend (Zayed Khan). Will they commit suicide on New Year’s Eve or fall in love with each other? This genial yarn is unusual in that it focuses entirely on the two talented leads. They rise to the challenge and breathe credibility into a predictable journey. Different but not groundbreaking (an Indian woman loves only once!) this NRI (Non Resident Indian) bolly-romcom, set entirely in America, is undemanding and unpretentious.
