Audience Member Arbit story line and gets draggy and boring towards the end of first half Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Gem. Yes, Bollywood is capable of doing this. Whattay plot. Yes, Premise is small. But, the thing writer/director wanted to convey is easily conveyed. Who on earth can think Butterfly as a metaphor!? Superb. Amir Bashir as loving, patient husband is brilliant. Sandhya Mridual plays a nagging, love hungry wife. And how? Koel Puri has got much to do. But she has done her job well. The Shibani Kashyap song could have been avoided. Little pacy story and this film was a benchmark. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member While the story and theme are nice, the movie's utterly boring. The narrator that keeps on coming in and interrupting the flow gets really annoying. It would be better to watch this as a play than a film. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member tries too hard to be an off beat independent movie, an art movie but fails superbly. one of the worst movies i have ever seen. it has nothing, no story no life, no nothing. empty movie, just crap......... bad bad worse.... hate it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member The tagline read, “Is happiness a rare insect? Is it for real? “ A tagline like that, I had totally expected a somewhat corny ride, but went ahead and picked out the DVD. don't get to watch hindi arthouse as oft afterall. So? Is the Great Indian Butterfly for real? … The answer was clichéd and expected alright, but I hadn't wanted anything mentally taxing so this fitted the bill. Dun hate it; it didn’t offer nothing new that’s all. The ‘narrator’ was kinda irritating though, with the philosophical-like bullshit he was spewing. And the soundtrack was quite bad. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member a slow movie, but a really nice one too. somewhat predictable but really beautiful!
