8 mile is good, worth it for the rap battles, especially the last one.
Liked Barfi too, but Anurag Basu has shamelessly ripped off scenes from other movies. And Pritam as usual copied music. It's shocking to hear Amelie's soundtrack in Barfi.
Wasseypur 2 - Not sure what I liked the most - the songs and background score by Sneha Khanvalkar, the acting and the black humor or the direction by Anurag Kashyap? Awesome blend of everything. Watched few scenes again and the movie does have a repeat viewing value. Probably the best bollywood movie for me from 2012 (havent watched Barfi yet). Its pity that movie like Ek Tha Tiger affected its share of recognition.
Buzz was about not sending it to Oscars. I dont think the subtitled movie would retain it's charm. Who would know that 'Pelpendiculal' is imitating Bachchan style while having difficulty in articulation, just by reading the subtitles - the humor just wouldnt be appreciated. The movie thrives on the language and local flare and I doubt would appeal to international audience.
