A total mess up. Review on Kidnap

Kidnap has a great star-cast. a good plot and good performances and all messed up by the director. It was like using all good ingredients, great spices, but making a tasteless meal which was hard and difficult to swallow.

I wonder how did the director manage doing that.

The story starts of well with an impact of hardships a teenager boy has to go through in Juvenile court and jail.  You expect intelligent and some substance in the first scene of the movie. But it starts off very bad, with a song in which Minissha has exposed two three or four much.

And the tension and interest which was made earlier is lost.

Vidya doesn't look like mother of Minissha. Sanjay Dutt is wonderful. Dialogues are good. But too many songs diverted the attention of director. He could neither focus on the domestic problems and emotional conflict between Sanjay and Vidya He could not focus on the hardships and real pain of Imran.

Minissha doesn't look like a 17-18 year old girl. She doesn't have the innocence and sweetness. Her selection as the movie heroine was the first step of making a hamming movie.

Imran has carried his bearing well. ANd Sanjay Dutt is the saving grace of the movie.

If you miss it, don't feel bad. If you see it try hard not to get mad. Just an average movie.

The climax is ridiculous, with a long sorry-sorry episode, till u feel sorry to wahave watched a torture movie

I hope and wish that someone make a tension-filled movie without any songs or with very less songs. eg: Ittefaq, Benaaam etc.

But better movie-making techniques cannot replace brain power of the director.
