Things will turn bad, but not just yet

Muthu is a terrific Bollywood movie, with everyone's favorite cliches. Muthu is sort of the Pootie Tang of this movie's universe, endowed with semi-explained, heavily SFXed powers. The whole thing goes on a little long, but it's mostly harmless (wander off for a cup of tea, everything's fine), and it does include the only hiccup-based dance number I'm currently aware of.
Mitchell is a fine old MST3K classic, but that doesn't really make the movie itself okay. Even through the MSTing it's still pretty bad. Mitchell is a crummy cop, who isn't really all that competent, but he seems to try to make up for this with persistence. It's not very appealing. The movie also doesn't seem to care about following its own plot, which is probably for the best, since it seems to involve guys being shot from behind a wooden screen thing of some sort, and... drug trade? Somehow? And a hooker who likes pot.
