Rock On 2 – Movie Review

2 out of 5 stars (2 / 5)

Rock On (2008) was Directed by Abhishek Kapoor and now the Sequel Rock On 2 Directed by Shujaat Saudagar is a complete disappointment in the terms of entertainment. Movie is same as old based on Rock Musical Drama but this time the soul is not there, neither the music is good. Story is the culprit; it is not holding the audience to movie. Till the interval I was searching for pickup in the story line but it was lagging from the beginning till the interval. Exactly I want to say it was too boring till the interval. But it doesn’t mean that after interval it picked up, it was still in the same lag. In the last 30 minutes of the movie it looks like yes now something interesting will happen and was waiting for that. But the climax also was not much happening but at least better than the ninety percent of the movie.

No complaints regarding the actors, everybody did well as per the characters and the story demanded. The movie failed with the story, direction and music. The Rock On (2008) has set a certain level of expectation and standard, so this one should be above that. I believe even Farhan Akhtar also may be realizing after watching this movie that it is not up to the mark. Other than the previous cast Farhan Akhtar, Arjun Rampal, Purab Kohli, Prachi Desai the new add-ons are Shraddha Kapoor, and Shashank Arora. Kumud Mishra is there in the role of a famous traditional musician and father of Shraddha Kapoor and must say not used him as per his capability.

When we think about Rock On, it is all about the music. Now this sequel is with such music which is completely pathetic and with soul less story. In the climax they played the old Rock On title song for some minutes which at least brought some smile on the face.

Well, it is a disappointment from Farhan Akhtar.

Wazir – Movie Review

4 out of 5 stars (4 / 5)

Wazir is a chess piece that moves like a rook, but can go only one square. This movie is a thriller story of an ATS officer along with an accidentally disabled man fighting against an anti-social evil. It is a brilliant package of awesome things bagged in one as Amitabh Bachchan, Farhan Akhtar and story by Vidhu Vinod Chopra… This deadly combo can make awesome movies like this undoubtedly. Director Bejoy Nambiar has given his best .

The legend of acting Mr. Amitabh Bachchan is somewhere overshadowing Farhan with some really catchy and bold dialogues. But the way Farhan acts, it is like, how effortlessly he is in the character, is commendable. Movie starts with a very sweet song featuring the beautiful Aditi Rao Hydari and Farhan Akhtar sung by Sonu Nigam (after a long time, I am hearing  Mr. Nigam in a new release). Every scene is filled up with thrill and emotions which will definitely give goose bumps to audience. You can see a surprise appearance of two persons in the movie giving addon points to the story.aditi

Director worked on every aspect and angle of the movie for example there is a scene where Farhan Akhtar is trying to suicide with a revolver but something distract his concentration and then he give up the idea. This is a natural tendency of human being as once the brain is prepared for suicide and if it get distracted, it is hard to get it back to that decision as the wise part will take over the evil side of our brain.

The only lacking part I felt is the final climax, which was little predictable for me. This made me to rate the movie 4 stars rather than my mid movie decision of 4.5 stars.

Well watch it for some really good cinema with awesome story.
