Kedarnath Movie Review: A more of a fictitious love story than a natural disaster movie.

Movie Name: Kedarnath
Cast: Sushant Singh Rajput, Sara Ali Khan 
Director: Abhishek Kapoor
Movie runtime: 2 hrs 
Genre: Romantic/Disaster
Release Date: 7th December

Plot Summary: A fiction love story set on the background of Kedarnath flood happens in the year 2013.

Script Analysis(story, Screenplay, Dialogues): Movie is a fictitious love story set in the backdrop of Kedarnath flood tragedy. The story focuses more on the love angle rather than the natural disaster for what the audience came to watch in the movie.  It is 80% of a love story and only 20% focus is on flood tragedy. The screenplay is good in the first part and fall flat right after the interval. It picks up when the movie focuses on Kedarnath tragedy. The love story between the two is great in the first half but after the interval, the story drags in the second half. They could have given less importance to the love story in the second half. Dialogues are ok.

Star Performance: Sushant Singh Rajput plays Mansoor a local guide(Pithu) who carries pilgrims on their back or horse to the Kedarnath temple. He is very convincible, Especially during the scenes where he carries pilgrims on his back. His Chemistry with Sara Ali Khan is cute. Sara Ali Khan steals the show in her first movie. She has delivered a good performance keeping in the mind that it is her first movie. As the movie focus mainly only these two characters all the other characters have somewhere sidelined and not have given much scope, which is one drawback of the movie. All the other actors don't have many layers to their characters and are strictly Ok (the fault is of the screenplay).

Technical Aspect(direction, Background Scores, Music): Movie is directed by Abhishek Kapoor of Kai Po Che fame. The movie is shot beautifully. The scenes surrounding the valley are well shot. The direction is good. Abhishek Kapoor successfully captures the environment of Kedarnath Valley. It feels like you are watching real Kedarnath city before the flood strikes. VFX is good. It looks real. Background score is good. Song Jai Ho Shankara is nice and cinematography of the song is also visually stunning. all the other songs are Ok.

Verdict: The movie is a one time watch. Watch it for Sushant and Sara performances and for the cinematography of the movie.

Who may like it: Love story fan, Sushant Singh's fans, people who like to watch good real cinematography and VFX.

Robot 2.0 Movie Review: Rajinikanth Sir And Akshay Kumar shine in this visually Stunning Movie.

Movie Name: 2.0
Cast: Rajinikanth, Akshay Kumar, Amy Jackson 
Director: S.Shankar
Movie runtime: 2 hrs 30 min
Genre: Action/Sci-Fi
Release Date: 29th November

Plot Summary: Chitti the robot is called back to fight with powerful villain Birdman.

Script Analysis(story, Screenplay, Dialogues): Movie continues the story from the first part. After the events of Enthiran Chitti, the robot is dismantled and has been kept in the museum. Strange things like mobile phones fly away in the sky and a bird-like figure traumatizes the city. Will Dr.Vaseegaran will able to solve the problem? Will Chitti be able to stop the Birdman? You will get all the answer in the movie. Storywise, this movie is more focus than the first movie. The screenplay is crisper than the first part, but the entertainment factor is less than Enthiran. I am not stating 2.0 is not entertaining but comparing with Enthiran is less entertaining but 2.0 is more story focus and visually stunning. The Screenplay is felt a little stretch in some part but it's ok. One thing is good that there is no unnecessary song thrown in between as it was there in Enthiran. More time is given to set up mobile phones flying events. The movie gets Fun once Chitti comes to the screen. Akshay Kumar entry comes in the Second half. He Should have been given some screen space before intermission. As it is Hindi Dubbed version of Tamil movie one can't expect much, dialogues are ok.

Star Performances: Rajni sir is brilliant as always. How someone at 67 of age can pull off such action with tremendous energy? Rajni Sir is good as Dr Vaseegaran and Chitti, But he is excellent as 2.0 and 3.0. Akshay Kumar has limited screen space. Most of the time mobile phone bird VFX is there than Akshay. He is Excellent as Panchirajan in the background story of his character. It was refreshing to see Akshay Kumar in an old look. Both his Panchirajan and Birdman Look is great. Amy Jackson is good but they could have given her character more layers. Adil Hussain is good in the supporting role. If there is a movie starring Rajni sir than you know the who need supporting characters. As the movie will only be focused on Thalaiva. 

Technical Aspect(direction, Background Scores, Music): S. Shankar Sir is master of the visually stunning movie. When Enthiran first came in 2010, it was the first time an Indian movie was made on such a scale. This time, Shankar Sir took the one step ahead with shooting a full movie with 3D technology. 3D was awesome as it was par with Hollywood standard in some VFX scenes. The movie was delayed as Shankar Sir want to make sure the VFX should be of top-notch standard and he gets successful in making a visually stunning movie. Background Score is good. There is no song in between of the movie. Only one song that plays during the end credit of the movie. The action is top-notch with the combination of visual effects and 3D.

                                 
                                                           2.0 Theatrical trailer

Verdict: Definitely worth a watch in 3d. If you want to experience a good 3D movie and want to make sure as India continues to make such a kind of creative cinema, please support these kinds of movies.

Who may like it: It is a treat for Rajni Sir fan. Akshay Kumar fan may also like it. Moviegoer of Sci-fi lover, action fan and 3d fan will love it. Watch it with children and family, especially children will love it.
