Gunday : Review

Director: Ali Abbas Zafar
Actors: Ranveer Singh, Arjun Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra

Rating: 1.5 / 5

For this movie, I'll summarize it before the full review because the movie went just like it's trailer, the first one was very interesting and others were terrible.

Gunday fascinates well in the start with good cinematography and direction. Two child actors who played young Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor picked the story line with their wonderful acting and dialogue deliveries. First fifteen minutes enjoyment gives a good feeling and one starts expecting atleast something good from the movie, but the film comes down with a huge impetus similar to a hanging criminal whose support is removed. Unfortunately the hanging person is the viewer itself. Their is an effort made on dialogues but nothing suits well when the actor grow up. I would have loved the movie to continue with the child actors and rather give last fifteen minutes to the lead actors.

Priyanka Chopra fans like me will keep on searching for something good from her but she never delivers anything. Rather after her entry, search for any kind of story will begun. Ranveer and Arjun tried to act well but they never succeeded. At the interval, you would love to leave the dud but I gave it a chance if someone can pull it from the grave. Stupid climax is predictable which I shouldn't say climax at all. Songs deepens your wound although Entrian song force you to shake a leg for a minute.

Second half gave few glimpses of pickup but all proved to be fake. I'll applaud for Irrfan Khan as he managed to act well in this type of story flow as well, the reason I managed to complete the film alive. As far as direction is concerned, I'll not blame it a lot and would rate it decently.

Overall, this is surely avoidable and I'll suggest a better time utilization this Valentine.
