A Flying Jatt: Movie Review

“A film made with good intentions but proved to be an anti-pollution lecture towards the end.”- A.T.M reviews,

A jatt who gets some superpowers through a tree and a villain who gets some superpowers through the same tree and their fight is what all about in this movie, and of course some not so great lectures on pollution at regular intervals towards the end.

The story revolves around a school martial art teacher (Tiger Shroff), a good for nothing guy who loves his mom and falls in love with a girl who basically enters the story from nowhere. Most of the first half of the film focuses on Amaan’s (Tiger) comedy, his family history and the love story between Amaan and Kriti (Jacqueline Fernandez).

A big business man Malhotra (Kay Kay Menon) who wants a bridge to be constructed on a river starting from a village to his factory, to reduce his cost of transportation. But what hinders this plan is a 200 year old sacred tree that is just on the point where the bridge has to be constructed.

Towards  the interval, a huge sized villain Raaka (Nathan Jones) is introduced. The villain is backed by Kay Kay Menon. When Raaka is hired to cut the tree at night Amaan coincidently comes across him and next a much expected fight scene while it is heavily raining is showed. Eventually, by god’s powers when both get in physical contact with the sacred tree, both attain super powers.

This is what leads to the opening of the actual story.

The major drawback of the film is that, by this moment the audience looses their interest from the film and even starts moving out of the theatre, this is an assured response of the audience from most of the theatres.

Like every movie Tiger Shroff, in this movie too is shown somewhere connected to martial arts but what impresses more are some specific scenes in the song ‘Toota Jo Kabhi Taara’ and Shraddha  Kapoor’s voice in the same song. But it’s advised not to expect anything more than this in the movie.

Being a Remo D’souza film, it was expected that the film would have some great dance moves but this film disappointed the viewers on that section too. Talking about special effects, the film fails miserably, visual effects of some scenes will probably haunt you at night.

Go and watch ‘A Flying Jatt’ for a good chapter on Pollution and nothing else.

Rustom: Movie Review

Rustom: Movie Review

‘3 Shots that shocked the nation’- RUSTOM,

A crime-mystery film directed by Tinu Suresh Desai and written by Vipul K Raval is based on the real life incident of Indian Naval Officer K.M Nanavati.

The story revolves around an innocent officer, Rustom Pavri(Akshay Kumar) who finds out his wife’s affair with his friend, and even goes to the extent of killing him. Public support, sympathy, love, revenge, corruption is what makes the film RUSTOM a heartwarming experience for those 151 minutes.    

  

K.M. Nanavati’s case (Filmed as RUSTOM) was the last jury trial case in India, maybe because later it was felt by the authorities that a murderer was declared innocent by the jury out of sympathy and media influence, which makes the film more interesting to watch. The flow was appreciated by the viewers, for right from the first scene to the last the unpredictability was well maintained by the film-makers, thanks to Tinu Suresh Desai.

However, Ileana was able to express more from her face than Akshay in the film, a good film for Ileana but a just another patriotic film for Akshay, maybe because this is his 4^th or 5^th film that is fundamentally based on a guy’s passion towards his own country.

Basically this is a no-masala film so those looking for a masala weekend entertainer, RUSTOM will not be the cup of tea for them. It’s a story with good content, direction and acting. 

The story somewhere in the middle tries to tell the audience that Rustom had a secret motive behind killing  his wife’s lover and he just used his wife just as a medium to kill that guy. But later this little not so useful spark is dropped and the film finally reaches its end that is probably known to most of the audience.

If you like films with investigation and lots of background story revolving around it, go and watch RUSTOM and celebrate your Independence Day with your friends and family.

Suicide Squad: Movie Review

Suicide Squad: Movie Review

After Superman's death, the central intelligence was worried for a common question was revolving in the minds of all, that– what if the next superman killed the U.S. President and got against the human race, thus, operator Amanda Waller assembled a team of dangerous criminals—the deranged Harley Quinn; elite hit man Deadshot, pyrokinetic ex-gangster El Diablo; opportunistic thief Captain Boomerang; monstrous cannibal Killer Croc; and specialized mercenary Slipknot, so that they could all fight against a  witch-goddess known as "Enchantress".

Each member of this squad has a small bomb implanted in their neck, designed to detonate if any member tried to rebel or escape. Thus named it “The Suicide Squad”.

Apart from this simple plot what is interesting is the cinematography of this film, every character has been given a certain importance and the way the story moves forward keeps the audiences binded together.

Being one of the to-the-point movies, this film has got mixed responses, but if you are a true ‘super hero’ fan then it is assured that you will be in love with this ‘super villain’ film.

The part that disappoints the viewers will be the less screen time given to the Joker for the audience expected Joker to play a major role in the film.

The direction of the film flaws when it reaches towards the end, for it becomes a much predictable end. Also the film awkwardly shocks the audience when it kills the Joker, but at the end brings him back from death without a proper conclusion (Maybe for a next part).

Besides its awesomeness this film has nothing much to offer as practically the story does not build up.

The madness, the passion, the willingness everything that resembles to these words are found in this film. So nothing much can be wrote about this film for it will completely ruin the experience of watching it in the theaters. 

A cool film with no much cinematic liberties taken makes it a perfect weekend entertainer. Go and watch SUICIDE SQUAD for its awesomeness and for its strong star cast.
