A biopic of a man like Veerappan was expected to be full of intense drama and mind blowing planning sequences, but this film has completely thrashed these expectations with irritating and senseless background music and a really bad  execution.

This film’s main protagonist had to be Veerappan but Sachin Joshi taking away most of the screen time confuses the audience that who actually is the hero?? Even that could be pardoned for once but the poor performance and lack of acting skills of Sachin Joshi in the film makes it a complete waste.

What attracts the audience most is the fabulous lookalike of Veerappan and the curiosity about how Veerappan was killed?

The expected comeback of Ram Gopal Verma disappoints the audience not because of the story but because of its poor execution.

This story revolves around a lean man who made it to the history of brutal killers who also was a Jabra fan of  the late LTTE Chief Vellupali Prabhakaran.  Veerappan had fancied  to share his idea of joining hands with him in kidnapping celebrities for extorting huge sums of money.

This guy’s story has the capacity to grab the audience’s attention but its poor execution really disappoints the audience.

A guy who became notorious for his brutality was  killed brutally but to know how one need to go and watch Veerapan.

Nothing more can be written  because there is no major content in the film.

Go and watch Veerappan, a clever and a notorious killer ever born on the Indian land, but not for anything else.

Move Review: Waiting

Waiting: Movie Review

2 strangers, 2 lives, 2 stories, 1 connection.

Waiting is a movie which has a simple plot of two different people having everything different except one thing – their hospitalized loved ones.

A situation of a newly married wife whose husband has met with a serious car accident and the life of a 65 year old man whose wife is in coma since 6 months are beautifully portrayed by Anu Menon (Director).

An unlikely friendship of two people coming from two different walks of life is quite interesting and engaging.

This film while watching hinted me for another unlikely intimate relationship between the two for making it just another predictable film showing the embarrassment and guilt of the two towards their spouses.

But this film had something different message for the audience.

Life is about hope and waiting, taking some decision and again waiting for its result. Although this film had everything but its bit indication towards an artistic and its ending justifying the title ‘waiting’ makes it a cup of tea that is probably not for everyone.

A good piece of direction can be felt by watching this film, showing the incidents of two people at different intervals and almost in a single frame is commendable.

The film is well connected and does not over exaggerate the emotional and confessing scenes.

Honestly speaking about the performance of the two protagonists, every single viewer of the film was convinced and amazed. I think every second person could relate him/herself to the film for it showed the mentality of two different generations, and its addition with the natural acting made the audience believe that two such characters really existed for those 98 minutes.

A must watch for people looking for some different out of the box entertainment.
