99 (2009) *HQ*
With the release of People Picture’s 99, the great filmi depression has finally come to an end.Three cheers and a huge round of applause for that! Cinema can breathe in peace for now.99 reminded me of Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can.It isn’t as brilliant as Spielberg’s film but it does have that tinge of wickedness, one that is thoroughly entertaining and rare in Hindi cinema.99 is about match-fixing, bookies and people who spend fortunes on illegal betting.The film takes reference from the 1999 cricket match-fixing scandal to create a delightful comedy of errors.
