The Big Bull
Without comparing it to the popular web series SCAM 1992, the film falls short of expectations; in its own league, it is merely okish and below average. 2 out of 5
All hail Abhishek Bacchan, who has put in tremendous effort and delivered a superb performance as Hemanth, driving the film with his soul. The story is based on Harshad Mehta and the Scam that surrounds him, and it is stitched in a 2.5-hour setup, which is something to be commended, as is the screenplay, which is written with minimal lag.
There are some dramatic parts and transitions between a few scenes that stand out, but the terrible BGM makes it appear extremely conventional and dull, and the filmmaker has failed to build detail, as the characters that surround Hemanth never mature throughout the film, making it look half-baked. Dialogues aren’t very memorable or catchy, further devaluing the film’s main characters. Because the plot moves at a quick speed, the film’s pace works in its favor. It’s also worth noticing the climax. The songs in the film were unnecessary since they were not up to par. The strangest portion of the picture was Abhishek Bacchan’s bizarre laughing, which was sprinkled throughout the film but was clearly unnecessary. Overall, it’s a film that’s much below average in its own league. Also, please don’t compare this to SCAM 1992, as it would be unjust to criticize the efforts of the cast and staff that worked on this film and its production.
