Hooray for Bollywood

Taarzan the Wonder Car surprised me. I added it to my Netflix list assuming that it was going to be another terrible movie...maybe good for a few laughs, but nothing more (its poor box office return certainly seemed to support this theory).
It turned out that Taarzan actually an enjoyable film in its own right. Yes, the plot is somewhere between Christine and The Wraith, and much of the dialog and action are outright silly, but it's saved by the enthusiasm of Vatsal Seth and Ayesha Takia in the starring roles. They really looked like they had fun making the movie, and the feeling is addictive. It's not going to go down in history as one of the finest movies ever created, but it was still quite enjoyable.
Although there are no scale versions of the main movie car, I was able to add a representation of the movie to my collection by building Priya's CRX. And who knows...maybe some day a company will release a current Mitsubishi Eclipse and I'll modify that into Taarzan itself.
