Short Circuit (2019)
A Fresh Breeze for Gujarati Movie Goers
After a long wait, finally I went to see this movie. It was marketed as first ever Science Fiction in Gujarati cinema. Indeed it is. And to my surprise, I was actually blown away by the movie. The visuals and VFX were beyond what I had expected from a Gujarati movie. The editing and pace was superb and the movie keeps you hooked till climax and you can't even judge what is gonna happen next.
With engaging first half, co-actor Smit Pandya steals the show. Other actors were also good. Second half was bit rushed and climax was not that much larger than life like it should have been. But I do understand the budget limits. Overall it was a thrilling experience.
I think this movie showcases that Gujarati Movies can move out of generic themes and attempt something new. It has also proved that we also can successfully make movies with VFX and stories with different themes like Sci-Fi. Great effort and a movie every Gujarati should be proud of.
Vitamin She (2017)
Even love comes with an expiry date! A must watch
I laughed through this one the entire movie. It contains a well written script that will appeal to young folks and even older couples in love. The storyline is nothing new. Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. They are so different in the way they think that they can never be made for each other. Good relationships happen only when both partners understand this and make compromises. One must give credit to Faisal Hashmi however for the fresh treatment and a different way of narration. RJ Dhvanit and Bhakti pull off their rolls as a confused couple as they work to sort things through. There is plenty of good advice given here as well and makes you step back and realize just how things can easily go wrong at times. This is a nice family friendly flick. Though it is a romance-comedy, there is a bit more comedy in this one so even guys will like it. 3 friends of the hero are real show stealer here. You are gonna love them.
The movie does have some minor downsides. In some scenes it becomes preachy and over dramatic. But I guess, that's just me and older people will love this.
But overall this movie will make u laugh, cry and in the end you will have a smile on your face while u get out of the movie. I recommend it watching with your special loved one or friends or parents.
