Elaan
AV-*
EV-*1/2
Five unlikely heroes and their one Elaan. "Baba Sikander, Kutte Kamine main tera khoon pi jaonga." Not exactly the same style but its same after all. Here is a brief profile of our unlikely heroes who are supposed to bring Baba Sikander whose army is bigger than that of Bangladesh and Nepal combined back to India and handle it over to the Police.
Rahul Khanna : Captain of the ship knows more business than guns but his father killed by baba & his sister accusing him for the fathers death, so revenge time. Doesn’t even need training to handle guns.
Amisha Patel : Only reason she is in the movie is 'coz movie is directed by Vikram Bhatt. She looks pretty. I mean pretty ugly with her so-called new blonde look. Well she is a reporter closely watching Rahul Khanna and his mates and finally falls in love with Rahul, can’t have a better reason to join the gang; well after all the person who was killed was supposed to be her future father-in-law.
John Abraham: He’s Baba’s ex –driver. Falls in love with Lara and wants to have a clean life so pleads Baba to let him go away from his big bad world. Baba listens to him and sends him to jail. He breaks out with help of others and is on the mission with some new tattoos all over his body.
Lara Dutta: John’s sweetheart is a bar dancer,doesn’t have much to do, wear some skimpy clothes and some sizzling item songs and of course has to accompany John on the mission.
Arjun Rampal : Ex-Cop with sweet li’l daughter and living happily. Only some bad memories of his wife’s death make him join the mission. Leaves her daughter for a foolish mission, only to know he isn’t going to see her again. But the only sensible man in the gang.
Baba Sikander : Mithunda please do whatever you have done earlier. At least that appealed to some class of audience. This performance appeals to no one.
This movie is a sort of remake of any 70’s revenge movie. Nothing new in it; not only the movie has wasted my time and money but at least a million bullets. Some times I wonder why it is so difficult to hit the target even from 10mts away. And also the so called humour and Chunky Pandey in the movie are bad or more to say pathetic. You will curse yourself why did you go and see such a movie. Mr. Bhatt please stick to something which you know better ie to make remakes of Hollywood movies blindly, atleast in that you won’t come up with your own logic and audience would be happier. Rahul Khanna is only ray of hope during the entire period of 3 hours.
Moral of the movie.
If you receive extortion calls, please pay the money and spare the audience and think twice before going for another Vikram Bhatt movie.
