ABCD - numma review

[POKIRI]

Theatre : Lakshmi , Bangalore
Status : 90%

The title of the movie says the boys are confused...but it is the makers confused more than them...!! they have got a superb Plot , 2 perfect boys , neat cast and rich production values...but the writers have just taken the safe route yet not striking the required chords..!! begins neatly, though misses sumthing there..but aft dat gets the momentum as the boys goes thru funny incidents..the frustrations and the discomforts of the boys are shown effectively till the interval card rolls.. So far SO good..2nd haf too moves same without much flaws...but when the movie elevates into serious notes the problems starts slowly.. the inexperience of the writers and the director is seen from here...even in some gud intended scenes direction falters.. the sub plots which have huge potential , are underutlized..still there are sum neat laughs wich comes just out of our 2 leads rather than script..but towds the climax its a test of patience wid repetetive sequences and slow narration...! d climax idea which got most of the negative feedbaks...was actually impressive but cud have been better in excecution...!!apart frm all these what makes us impress the writers is that they have cum wid a challengin PLOT unlike the other new-gen craps and also a big thumbs for them as they kept the boys charecterisation intact till the end..even if Johns and Kora are helping those poor naxalite- labelled people or presenting themselves in front of the media people , they are the same immature- confused guys...! from the tech side Joemons visuals and Gopi sundars bgm's are pluses.. but the real killers of the movie is its editing and avg direction..! it feels like the crew didn have an editor in their team most of the times as the lengths goes on and on...! from the cast Dulquer and Gregory as expected rocked even in the half baked scenes..! they perfectly carries that frustartion and tension throughout the movie in the most convincing way.. a thumb up for their stylists too...aparna is a sure delight wen its cum to her perfomance..! rest are okay..by the time end titles roles we are left wanting more from the movie..

have the movie trimmed for at least 20 minutes and have the direction was flawless this one could have been a perfect entertainer...!! still it deserves a watch for the teams good intention...!!

2.75/5
