Naqaab: Most Shocking Movie of the Year

The movie is being promoted as the most shocking thriller of the year, well I wont comment on the thriller part, still it's the most shocking movie of the year. I think the real intention behind making any commercial movie is to earn money. Then why would someone make a movie that can only be enjoyed by either people with very high i.q. (it requires good memory to remember all the twists and turns in the movie, there are so many of them and specially in the second half) or people with very low i.q. (they will not bother about remembering the twists and be happy in watching gorgeous Urvashi Sharma).

Since I have mentioned Urvashi Sharma, lets talk about her first. She is good looking (I love her since something something) and knows how to act. It's her first movie, and have heard that she has already signed an eight film contract with some film company. I guess by the time these eight movies are made, she would be a fine actress. In this movie she has played the character of Sophia D'costa who is engaged to multimillionaire Karan Oberoi (Bobby Deol). Sophia meets Vicky (Akshaye Khanna) and falls in love with her. You are being shown camera shots during regular intervals throughout the first half. Second half is all about tying the loose ends followed by multiple twists and turns. I have lost count of how many times story changed it's course in the second half.

Akshaye Khanna is good and the only actor in the movie, who manages to play his part well. Bobby Deol has proved again, that he can not act. Vikas Kalantri is the worst, if he was to be in the movie, he shouldn't be given any dialogues. His dialogue delivery is third grade. There is nothing to do for other characters in the movie. Background music is good and goes well with the thriller genre. There are only two songs in the movie "Ek din teri bahon me", is the one you would want to hear again. Abbas Mastan should know that their style of movie making is outdated now and should change. Why is this affection with Bobby Deol, drop him from all your future projects, please. Take some newcomer, probably you could provide a new Shahrukh Khan to the industry.

The movie is average and would rate this as 5 out of 10. In the end, I enjoyed Aap Kaa Surroor more than this one. Either the movie should be good or bad, average movies don't entertain me much.

i have to agree to you on this issue for sure that average movies dont entertain much...good movies are always the preference and some movies are so bad that they end up making me laugh at then but average movies are just not right.
