BigTree Entertainment, the company that launched the online movie and events ticketing portal, BookMyShow.com, has launched its maiden facebook application.

The social web app allows you to show movies to your friends, absolutely free!

Faltoo Flicks brings you the very best of B, C and D grade bollywood entertainment. You can send the wholesome goodness of bad movies to your friends. Passion, lust, action, emotion, comedy and tragedy, there’s a movie for everyone.

The concept is to share movies such as Bichhoo, Bhookha Sher and Adi Manav and have a laugh with friends. The application is created and designed by the digital agency, Webchutney. The inspiration behind this app was “Everybody talks about popular films, but nobody writes about movies that are bad. So we thought of giving viewers a platform to fret about bad movies and see what they say about them!” The Faltoo Flicks page features about 70 such movies.

InsideSocialWeb Review:

The facebook applications main catch is the funky movie names and the descriptions. The application is more towards “play a prank on your friend” types and the fun does not last long. The User Engagement for the application is very less since the movies are limited and there is nothing much to do other than booking a ticket for your friends. The application does play the prank really well and the navigation and the interface is really polished. The app could do more on orkut than facebook for a straight fact that the number of Indian users on facebook is really less ? 496,000 as I review this.

All in all a great start with a unique idea.could go a really long way if they could work on the user engagement part.
