This Fox needs fix

With the monday off and Sunday to b spent as liesurely as possible, I called up Satya and we met for coffee, which turned out to be a dinner plan and got extended to a movie.

We took whatever movie ticket was available at that time as most of the shows were alreasy on (it was past 9 PM) and Fox was the movie we could get teh ticket of. The expectation from the movie was zilch and we decided that we shall walk off mid-way if the movie turns out to be soporific or the one to wreck the nueral cells.

I feel it is always good to go to the movie with such expectation as then you enjoy the show the more.

The movie started on good note and seemed promising. Though the first couple of scenes were not so plausible, it nonetheless picked up a good line in another 15-20 minutes. The pace was slow but the story was being formed well, keeping one thinking as to what is going to go wrong with the main protagonist. in between soem unwarranted song, dance and romantic sequences were thrown in for whatever purposes the director found it to be. But we were waiting for Sunny paaji. Once he enteres, generally movies take a interesting turn and hence we were counting minutes when he would be on screen and lo he was there just before the interval.

Some confusion was created purposefully as to ‘who the çulprit is’ but it was worth it and somewhere mid-way you feel as if the suspense is no more. But as the movie rolls on, the earlier exposure of the storyline seems fake and you start guessing with lot of confidence as to who the person would be. The story is fast-paced after interval but it loses taste.

The worst part is the end. Though you would have guessed the person, the reason provided was too wacky and I would not take it.

Arjun Rampal did his bit of acting as much as he could. he has a natural limitation when it comes to showing expression but he did well with that. Ms Ghatge tried her best to bring on some emotions on her face but seems she needs much more than two movie experience to pull on some expressions on the screen. sunny paaji was wasted in the role. He hardly got any chance to act. The role was so run-down that you cannot relae to teh actor or Damini and Ghayal. the best was Udita Goswami. She never tried to act and remained naturally inexpressive throughout the movie then be as a owner or a publishing house in romantic scene.

some of the sequences seemed completely out of place and the story sometime looks illogical.

Overall I can say that the movie could have been made much better if concoction of brain, common sense and skills were put in.
