Kites is a one-time watch and there too it falters too many times. The film's ending was supposed to be moving but instead it looked corny and stale. Kangna Ranaut is criminally wasted in a role that is clearly just a favour to the one who actually launched her career in the industry. Barbara Mori is extremely attractive but she too seems lost in this lingual mess. There is something sincere about his performance but overall he is not very convincing and at points looks way too pretentious. Their relationship was poorly executed by the director. At points I wondered if there was something else to their relationship and sometimes I struggled to understand why they actually loved each other so much, and that was not clear to me from what I saw on-screen. Sadly, their interaction was not brought out very well. Which brings me to the next point and it is the lead pair. Some action sequences are entertaining and so are some of Hrithik and Barbara's scenes together. None of the songs is particularly memorable but some of them are enjoyable when played in the film. The narrative is filled with flashbacks and some sequences are devoid of words, resulting in a very confusing development which distracts from the main proceedings.
The script is very poor and the story is generally uninspiring and at points does not even make sense. I expected to see something that is both romantic and light, but this film is awfully clichéd, heavy and melodramatic.
