i purchase this dvd a it be a merchant and ivory collection piece and hop for a good sunday even bed time view . i wasn not disappointed and the movie generate some beautiful scenery and life a far with strange paradox in a complex bombay society . the story be quite similar in fashion and form to red heat ( 1988 ) and and the rush hour series of movie . the plot be ridiculous and the screenplay rather dull and nothing ever fit together to solve the riddle a you would like to in this movie . but the laugh be a plenty akin to more to the bumbling inspector clouseau genre . acting be well than the screenplay and the chemistry between the two detective could be well . the dvd be very sparse and why criterion ever get involve i be not sure . the transfer be disappointing and somewhat grainy .
