There were two films which released simultaneously that is DRONA & KIDNAP. I knew Drona will be short in merit but I had lots of expectation from Sanjay Gadvi the person who made super-successful films like DHOOM & DHOOM 2. But Kidnap fall short in expectation.
It had an interesting boy versus man revenge saga plot but sadly didn’t transformed into an interesting film on screen. Shibani Bhatija who gave us gems like FANAA & KABHI ALVIDA NAA KEHNA, this time fails to glue u due to her pathetic writing.
The disease which a thriller film suffer from is predictablity, Kidnap gets infected easily because it fails to grip you through out the show. There are many sequence which illustrate Sanjay’s let down as the director like New Year party in climax, the engagement party etc. The problem with Kidnap is that the kidnapper is very fond of her victim, Minissha gets a new sizzling wardrobe, where she gets it from? Imran pampers her instead of torturing. WOW!!! A new way of kidnap system. Thank you very much. The music by Pritam is also very thanda only barring Mit Jaaye & Hey Ya.
Sanjay Dutt looks disinterested throughout , an embarassing performance. Imran Khan gives an earnest acting but seems confused. Minissha Lamba looks absolutely hot in this glamour avtaar but sadly chooses a wrong script for skin show, in terms of acting she is always first -rate. Vidya Malvade doesn’t looks convincing as Minissha’s mother, even she tries to compete her daughter by showing her cleavage. Rahul Dev & Reema Lago are reduced to mere prop. All over, Kidnap is nothing but a disappointing thriller.
