6/10
Could have been much better
26 August 2006
Krrish the most ambitious project by Rakesh Roshan may open doors for Superhero flicks in Bollywood. But whether the movie is worth hype.Definitely not. I am not in mood to write full fledge review so will write main points.

Rakesh Roshan tries to make this flick mix of 'Superhero' and 'Love Story' and thats where the muvy flatters I have to rethink the movie name while watching whether its name is 'Krrish-Love story of a Superhero' or 'Krrish' Cauz this muvy takes ur almost 2 hrs out of 3 hours in establishing Hrithik-Priyanka love story While the future vision idea was lift up from John Woo's 'Paycheck' but even that doesnot support this mediocre flick cauz that idea is only around for sometime in movie while most of the time movie wanders around Hrithik-Priyanka love story.

Now the actions.There was nothing like never seen before for those who have seen 'Matrix' and 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon' But looking at budget and all i can say that was good attempt.

Superhero flicks needs more to be at point rather than every now n then going into emotional themes. This movie is made for the kids and will be liked mainly by the kids. And inspite of being E.T ripoff Koi Mil Gaya was much better product The biggest disappointment is Rakesh Roshan's direction who tries to mix mag things

Now music.Music is big letdown as we know already.However if u have heard it few times before it will not hamper muvy progress However RR should take care of better music next time.

Acting-Inspite of being good footage Priyanka hardly leaves an impression.Sometimes she looks amazing,sometimes horrible And her friend not only looks horrible but she acts horrible too Hritik's friend whose name is perhaps Hemant Pandey is good Nasruddin Shah overacts and a villain who could have send a chill in blood makes a laughable material by his news act and all. The only actor who leaves most impression after Hrithik is offcourse Rekha.She makes you believe however short her role is written she can act gracefully.

And,i will end on a positive rating due to two reasons.First cause of attempt of 'Superhero' flick which will open doors for more such flicks in bollywood cause of its commercial success.

Second and most strong point is Hrithik's sterling act.He is the heart and soul of the movie. And he is the only reason to watch this flick which is a forgettable and kiddish affair.

3/5
