I like to watch RGV’s movies because his movies do not have the usual Bollywood stuffs like 3 hour movie, Group dances, stinkingly rich people, taking movies in America or Switzerland as though India is not a good place to shoot the movie etc.,
So I went and watched night show and was disappointed.
A good outlaw (Amitabh) has one good son (Abhishek younger) and one bad son. Bad son antagonizes father by killing an actress’ (who he likes) boyfriend. One bad outlaw from Dubai tries to eliminate Amitabh with the help of the bad son and how Abhishek foils it is the story.
The scene where Abhishek escapes from being killed (his trusted lieutenant saves Abhishek by taking bullets) is taken pathetically. These are the scenes which should be taken properly and RGV failed miserably. The rise of Abhishek to Sarkar is equivalent to hero becoming rich in one song, love at first sight etc.,
Performance:
Throughout the movie Abhishek has same expression (only one place he cries) and same tone. Did not RGV tell Abhishek that there is something called voice modulation. Probably RGV thinks that underacting means natural acting and cool. The bald sidekick of Amitabh has better expressions and better voice modulation than Abhishek.
The screen presence of Big B is awesome and I dont have to write anything more about it.
Music:
The only saving grace is there is no song in the movie. But the ’’Govinda Govinda’’ hum really tortures you.
Screenplay:
When you copy you lose your creativity and taking a 2 hour movie does not mean that movie has a good screenplay and this movie is testimony to that.
The movie is worth watching if you don’t have anything to do.
