Movie Freak Very nice effort by director Ravi Udyawar. It is one of the most sensitive and realistic Hindi movies that I have seen in a long time. Almost all the actors have done justice to there roles. Sridevi as we all know was an amazing actress and she did an excellent job once again. Nawazuddin appeared in a cameo all did very well, but the most impressive of the lot was Sajal Ali, she was exceptional with her expressions sometime she did not even speak but her eyes tells the pain and anger that she was going through. Adnan Siddiqui also was impressive.
kennmac The film was very good but the story was totally predictable all actors were excellent in their respective roles but nawazuddin just stills the show by his cameo.
r_mantra_r The feminazi takeover of Bollywood continues with it's anti male, feminist propaganda, this time churned out by Boney Kapoor & Zee Studios.Following the likes of 'Pink' & Hollywood's 'I Spit On Your Grave', another slyly crafted feminist film, with overly dramatic performances by Sridevi & Sajal Ali.The script is terribly twisted, advocating male castration, murder & violence among other crimes.Double standard exists within the plot, as a group of young men have committed a gang rape, however the film comes to an abrupt end failing to address the outcome of other heinous revenge crimes being committed throughout the second half by lead character Sridevi under the pretense of a 'mother's love' all while seeking validation of her spouse's daughter who is not her own biological offspring.A scene is also shot where Akshaye Khanna's character (main cop) gets put off the case by his senior because the second suspect in the case (Sridevi) happened to be a female.Yet another film where men are prosecuted for committing crimes, but if you are a woman, you get to commit crimes and walk away scott free! Nothing special about Sridevi's performance here other than her resurgence making great marketing for the film subtlety pushing it's feminazi propaganda. Something not new to many of her casted roles since the 80s.Akshaye Khanna's comeback performance is refreshing. He is casted well along Nawazuddin Siddiqui whose character, given his acting talents, could have been given better depth, however ends up being mediorce, as comedy did not seem to not be working within the overall theme of the film.Pathetic music by India's once musical genius of the 90's A.R. Rahman. To compare to Hans Zimmer here is ludicrous!Writer Girish Kohli seems to be an atheist or spiritually ignorant, since tagline for the film reads: 'God could not be everywhere, so he created MOM'. How blasphemous a statement! The script also contains skewed feminist views surrounding character 'Draupadi' of Hindu mythological text Mahabharat. Not forgetting the transgender character casted to appease feminists, LBGT & Gays.The notable strong aspects of the film however remain in its technical aspects being its cinematography, editing & direction which are all well done.
Gunjan I think what makes Mom a little different from other films about gaining justice is the gray character of Devki and how far she's willing to go to make sure it happens.The premise is quite clear and Devki remains to be a consistent character throughout the story. I would say that Akshaye Khanna and Nawazuddin Siddiqui are good characters to the story and complement her well. However I still wished they had a little more screen time. Most of their appearances were just meant to bring out more of Devki's character.The small amount of screen time that Sajal Ali had as Arya was enough to see that Arya was a pretty heart wrenching character. It was disappointing that she wasn't given more screen time because a lot of character growth could've been explored.I would recommend this movie for Sri Devi's great performance as a determined mother willing to go to any lengths to gain justice. The songs weren't notable and the character of Devki tends to outshine the other characters in this movie.
