The film starts off with a bedtime story scene of a father and son. That concept of conversing the story of the film to the audience through another story is a bit cliche but I'll give it a pass. Other than that the film is about gold smuggling and hard to believe this one is the dumbest gold smuggle movie I have ever seen.
The story and the script had a nice potential which could have been made in to an amazing movie on screen, However the casting, dialogues ,shots,CGI and execution have made this one an average movie for a niche audience. The director is the guy who made B.tech, which was a hit indeed for the most part. And this movie just undermines his skill and makes him look like a noob in so many instances throughout the film.
Let's do some nitpicking here
# the goons slashing the kids at 10.54 , the kid is having a cut on his shirt with blood even before the knife touches him, the same is followed and visible on the 11th minute as well , that CGI made me praise cartoon network and it's literally visible, like it's 2023 man this ain't no blind screening.
#the mom of the dead boy is doing a wonderful job at putting an utter fake shock in her face ,lady who in their right mind casted you for something you can't do.
#At 11.24 the slashed dead boy looks right on into the camera , kudos for edits!!!
#At 11.29 the goons flee the scene and that shot looks it was shot on an old nokia phone with a dusty lens.
#Asif Ali's intro shot was totally cringe , like who hotboxes a car with a ciggerate!!
I'm tired of writing up this stuff like this is visible throughout the film the scene executions look super mediocre and cringe evoking when you have expectations for the director and cast.
When you compare the final film with the hype the cast and crew have been putting on social media pre-release to this film , this one is way subpar and a total disappointment. This film is full of unnecessary fights and people raging random stuff like their all on a chemical trip disaster, background scores just adds on to the cringe factor when you look at what's on the screen for those particular soundtracks.
Also the biggest flaw in screen i could notice is the climax fall of Asif which pretty much looks like the 2023 version of the fall of jayaram in friends (1999) , and it looks way more mediocre than jayarams fall shot,like are you guys for real, it's 2023 dudes freaking wake up!!!
I'm glad i didn't waste my money for a theatre watch on this one.
