Trailor of Fan was really great and went to the theater with lots of expectations. Before the interval, the movie went at a perfect pace, the madness a fan, desperation to meet him, crossing the limits to impressed him was depicted perfectly. But morning always doesnt show the day.
The good feeling about the movie got completely ruined in the second half. Most of the scenes were dragged unnecessarily. What was most disappointing about Fan is the climax.
Thumbs Up:
The acting of Shahrukh Khan is one of his best. Though Gauravs acting seems to be a bit over-acting, but Aryan was just awesome.
Look of Gaurav suits him perfectly. 3D Scanning process has been performed very aptly.
There was no song in Fan, which is not something which generally happens in Bollywood movies.
Thumbs Down:
As I have already have told, the climax was disappointing. As per me, its giving a very wrong message to society and will leave a wrong impression on youth.
A major flaw to me was, Gaurav, a person with a lean built and high incisors, at times disguises himself as Aryan who is a man with a great built, abs and perfect jawline and no visible flaw in incisors. But no-one, including his wife, can identify the same. Come on, at least the build should make a big difference if not the teeth.
One more thing which didnt go well with me is, how did he get access to a high profile marriage, is it so easy to get an access pass? Then what is the security? Also, just for an actor misbehaved in a marriage or in a museum, doesnt do so much damage that everyone will boycott his live performance.
The worst thing about the movie is the fight sequences, the chasing in both the sequence seems to be never ending. It was way to much dragged.
Verdict: As per me, considering the influence in the common human life, Bollywood should take ownership either to spread some good message for the society or simply entertain people. But, with Gaurav committing suicide in the climax, this movie has terribly failed in both the cases.
