Jism 2 Hindi DVD (2012/Indian/Bollywood/Cinema) with English Subtitles

I heard about and bought Jism 2 because of being a fan of Sunny Leone, then I was surprised I liked watching the overall movie too. It was confusing that it began with and sometimes had some English sentences, so I went back to the Menu and turned on English subtitles. It wasn't as intense dramatic as other foreign films such as, "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" series, but while all the acting was good there were a few scenes that got overly dramatic as in a soap opera and the viewer may wonder if it's a flashback scene or a sentimental music video but it does balance out by the ending. It is not even softcore, as there is only about four brief scenes (often shown in trailer video clips and basically no more intimacy is shown than that) that are implied (usually in more of a romantic way) but there is no nudity at all. Personally I would have liked an unrated version, but I still liked the movie so that's saying it was interesting enough in other ways. Much of the vibe of the movie is very sensual because of Sunny Leone, but the theme is more of a visual romance novel and thriller, and overall they did it quite well. The plastic the DVD was on had too much glue holding the plastic but still fell off (that's ok as I put it in another case anyway) and as with some plastic holders it required being very careful getting the DVD out of the plastic without breaking the DVD (this is why I put it in a different case), but the DVD played and I liked watching Jism 2. There are a few seconds of instances during it of ads for ringtones maybe for India to be ignored. I am going to look up purchasing a song from a U.S. site if I can find it. I wanted to buy Jism 2 as an Amazon Instant Video, but it's not available yet. The acting of Sunny Leone and all the actors was overall very good. Sunny Leone as always is incredible, beautiful, amazing, and I would like to see more movies with Sunny Leone. There are very few movies that I intentionally watch more than once, such as "Shall We Dance (Japanese version), "Pulp Fiction," and I will watch Jism 2 again. I am glad I bought it. I personally enjoyed watching Jism 2.

So nice to see that India has loosened up from the sexually repressed culture that it is and is actually trying to think outside of the box with new material other than the sob love stories one was forced to endure over the 70's and 80's. Sunny Leone is a fresh beautiful face and her pairing with Randeep gives the audience a chemistry like none other. I actually saw the movie for free on YouTube but loved it so much that I purchased a copy for my DVD collection. Hats off to Pooja Bhatt.

Great Movie

The chemistry between Bipasha Basu (actress) and John Abraham (actor)is ridiculous. Some of the songs are romantic, catchy and quite steamy. The plot thickens about 20 minutes into the movie. Overall, its a good watch but not a classic or anything.

Terible movie I had to fast forward all the way through. I think Sunny should stick to porn. Her acting is atrocious and the only good thing about the movie was the set in Sri Lanka. I am embarrassed I let my curiousity get the better of me...

"Body" is not at all a bad film. It is quite unashamedly a reworking of "Body Heat," the 1980s film that starred William Hurt and Kathleen Turner. It isn't just that the plot is the same - several scenes are lifted directly from the source movie.The plot is a good one. Poor lawyer meets beautiful young woman who's married to a wealthy older man. They begin a torrid affair, she claims to be in love with him but too afraid of her powerful and dangerous husband to get a divorce, and out of passion for her he decides to kill the husband. Because he's been thinking with his genitals rather than his head he fails to see how he's been manipulated, fails to understand that a beautiful woman can also be calculating and smart, falls head-first into a plot within the plot and discovers that, like a sex toy, he's completely replaceable. This plot worked very well in "Body Heat" and has more than enough dramatic potential to survive transplant from the American south to India.Then why do I give this film only three stars? First, the chemistry between the two leads is less sizzling than the chemistry between Hurt and Turner. The stars of "Body" are both attractive, and the female lead has the sultry presence (even when she breaks into the requisite musical numbers) to pull of her side of the film. The male lead (John Abraham - surely an odd name for an Indian) rarely rises above being attractive, though. He looks like a model rather than an actor, and he seems to pose his way through the movie. In fact, he's beautifully handsom even when lying drunk on a sidewalk, a mannequin who's partied too much rather than a man in despair. The Indian settings are lovely, but the film editing produces some jarring transitions (almost as if the film skips from one scene to another). The sound is very nice, the songs often quite pretty, but passion, lust and murder call for something more than pretty. The musical numbers are much less intrusive or jarring than they are in other Indian productions - the Bollywood aesthetic is relatively subdued in this film.This being a Bollywood production, the sexual content is much more subdued than it was in "Body Heat." Given the subject matter, the Bollywood treatment feels oddly chaste. This movie is "Body Heat" with less sex, prettier actors, less sexual chemistry, prettier scenery, no sultry atmosphere, musical numbers, and less heat (the actors hardly even sweat; perhaps that's why it's only called "Body"). Not bad, but not terribly good. It is, however, entertaining, and sometimes that's good enough.

Debut performance of John Abraham was really amazing. Story took a few twists that were surprising. well acted and well done for a newcomer at that time.

This movie was missing something…don't ask me what.
