Featured review
Rockstar- Poignant and one of a kind with soulful music and Ranbir's noble performance
Rockstar is an enchantment to watch that how Indian Cinema is up-and-coming with some different subject matter.
Janardan Jakhad(JJ) a regular lad with vehemence for rock music and die-hard fan of Jim Morrison goes to an indistinct length. He was recommended by his mentor that to become an eminent artist there must have occurred a catastrophe and pain deep in heart. The efforts to break his heart are very funny with some witty dialogs and great body language by Ranbir.
Eventually Nargis Fakhri's screen presence is a cool breeze, she is striking but lacks in the acting skills. She missed the expressions and unable to deliver nevertheless having a counterpart role.
The supporting cast has done very well, special mention for Kumud Mishra (Katara) & Piyush Mishra (Dhingra).
The first half of the movie shows the character development of JJ with some fine moments of mirth and splendid cinematography. However, the second half drags a bit with some no obvious reason deeds.
Ranbir adds a new feather is his cap with outstanding performance. He shows a great potential in every movie with a different shade. He is going to take the Kapoor's legacy to a whole new level.
Ultimately, the Music, given by our own Oscar winner A R Rahman, is exceptional and soul of the movie. Every score is blazing with the correct situation. Rahman is a genius and kudos for compiling such stupendous music which will remain in our hearts until the world ends.
Imtiaz Ali has given us some fantastic movies including his best (My Opinion) SOCHA NA THA and with Rockstar he chooses a very fine and daring subject. Waiting to see more from him!
