One fine day, when me & my friend had nothing better to do in the morning, we decided ( I still regret it) to watch KIDNAP. Considering Imran (JTYJN) & Minissha’s (HTPL, BAH) recent performances and the cast, I was expecting Fireworks. All went well till the movie picked (or dropped) up pace.
The movie starts off on a promising note, with minissha in the opening song sequence (she looked like Kylie Minouge to me. I can watch that song again) cavorting in Two piece swimsuits after that, the script seems to wander off into unknown directions, with a plot thinner than the security thread on a Rs.10 currency note. At one point, it felt like watching an Ekta Kapoor serial, with the mother/daughter/grandmother arguments over the Father.
Vidya malwade plays minissha’s gorgeous mum. She needs to seriously reconsider her choice of roles. The scenes between Minissha & Imran look artificial ( To quote somebody else... ’ Acting like being paid to act, but were unsure whether they would receive any payment’).
Then the involvement of the Father (sanjay Dutt) when his daughter has been kidnapped, poor emoting and the chase/action sequences so pathetic, they look like inspired from MTV Roadies 5.0. Not to mention Imran’s justification for kidnapping minissha. You might suffer a heart attack due to shock when you come to know of it. Rahul Dev is also under utilised
Only thing that kept me from dozing off was Minissha.. I’ve never seen her look so yummy before. Imran also shines in bits & parts. She managed to wear designer clothes all the while, even while in Imran’s custody... Her costume deisgner has done a good job!
Only reason to watch it wud be if you are a hardcore Minissha Lamba fan! Else dont waste your time and money and grey matter by watching through this crap movie. The director desrves to be banished from movies for life..
