Would a Grand Theft Auto film be more of the same? If not, would it really be a Grand Theft Auto film, and if so, what’s the point? From Goodfellas to Miami Vice to Menace II Society, the entire GTA media juggernaut has been lifted wholesale from classic movies. That idea however, raises a crucial question: The Grand Theft Auto games have all been pastiches of various crime films.
Of course, there’s also the more speculative option: That Rockstar is planning a Grand Theft Auto film series, and has no faith in Hollywood studios to do the game series justice. Maybe Take-Two is just keeping its options open. In truth it could merely be a successful publisher ensuring the ongoing viability of its burgeoning media empire. What exactly does this mean? For now, not much. The trademark text summary is suitably vague:Īnimated motion picture films featuring entertainment, namely, action, adventure, dramatic, comedic, children’s and documentary themes pre-recorded video discs and other pre-recorded digital and electronic media in the field of live action programs, motion pictures, or animation featuring entertainment, namely, action, adventure, dramatic, comedic, children’s and documentary themes.Īdditionally, gaming industry news outlet SystemLink reports that Take-Two owns URLs for both “” and “.” That trademark has since been approved, though the purpose of the filing remains mysterious. Take-Two Interactive, publisher of such fine, upstanding titles as Grand Theft Auto IV and LA Noire registered “Rockstar Films” on December 21, 2010. Watch Rockstar and wait for Imtiaz Ali's next from his compendium of love.If a new trademark filing is to be believed, Rockstar Games might be churning out films in the near future. Shammi Kapoor's presence as the classical artist enhances the gravitas of the film. But eventually, the film is a milestone in Ranbir Kapoor's career as an actor and a classic cut from the AR Rahman and Mohit Chauhan combo. Nargis Fakhri too stands tall as the delectable Heer who sizzles on screen with her unconventional ways. Ranbir Kapoor displays an amazing growth chart as a performer as he gradually changes from a two-sizes-too-tight jean-clad upstart to a musical genius seared by a love that threatens to scorch his very soul. Of course, Sadda Haq is the youth anthem by now, but there are so many beautiful tracks in the film, you get heady and stirred. The vocals by Mohit Chauhan, the lyrics by Irshad Kamil and the music by AR Rahman are stuff classics are made of. The fact that this romance unfolds on screen in the form of an explosive musical, capturing JJ's transmutation into Jordan, the edgy artist, makes the film an absolutely engaging affair. It is a love that transcends all social barriers, decimates all conventions and ends with a spiritual promise to meet in the field that exists beyond the concept of right and wrong (Rumi). Great bonding, which gets even greater when the two realise it's time to kiss. Before she gets nice and clean, Heer wants to play real dirty and JJ is more than willing to play the rule-breaker rogue with her. Their relationship begins when both of them display a yen for the wicked and wild side of life and ignite the bohemian lifestyle by watching a show of Junglee Jawani in a seedy Delhi theatre. The highpoint of Rockstar is it's high tension, high-on-passion romance between two unlikely people: the completely low brow JJ who doesn't like his girls nice and clean and Heer (Nargis Fakhri), the uptown Stephenian who is all set to get married and settle down to sweet domesticity like all sweet girls do.
Love literally smoulders under his narrative, albeit in a completely modern idiom. With intelligent entertainers like Jab We Met, Love Aaj Kal and now Rockstar, he is evolving as a new age Yash Chopra.
