102 Not Out

A lovely movie, great acting by all 3 characters. The movie maintains a feel good tone throughout. A great mixture of comedy, drama.

A great quote by Amitabh, "I never died not even once". The movie re-emphasizes this quote and oh so beautifully.

Definitely recommended a must watch

Perfect casting.. I cannot imagine any other two actors playing the two roles.. Amitabh as witty father and Rishi Kapoor as serious son.. Great combination.. Needless to say performances of both actors are amazing, faultless.. We talk about Amitabh Bachan getting better with age.. But recent roles of Rishi Kapoor also indicate the same thing.. Movie is really enjoyable.. Not a dull moment throughout.. A rare but important message

102 NOT OUT REVIEW :

I had seen the original drama on which this film is based so obviously i knew everything about script and i didn't need to watch the film but as a movie buff i prepared myself to see how cinematic version turns out. Despite being predictable/seen story to me, this film ended up as a 'Classic' for me then just imagine how much someone will like it who hasn't seen the drama. 102 Not Out is not only a Brilliant Film but also a Life Lesson to everyone.

Story is very interesting and unique, every cinema lover is always ready to see something new and this film is gives you that something new and very interesting theme. Amitabh Bachchan has nailed his role and i believe he deserves some respectable awards for this mind-blowing performance. Rishi Kapoor has done excellent job, he completely suits for that 75 years old guy's role. His voice, expression, body language is just wow. Other cast is okay. Screenplay is tight and engaged, throughout. Runtime of 107 minutes is so perfect and may be that's why film doesn't look boring for a single moment. Cinematography is Average, as i feel scenes in the house, mumbai roaming scenes, nature could have been captured in better way. Music is Decent, this script does not have a place for songs but come on it's a Film, not a drama so anyhow director gonna put some songs for sure, and it was unnecessary. Dialogues are Good, few are so meaningful so does memorable. Direction is Very Good, film has some lose scenes in the first half but thank god Umesh Shukla has covered the loss in second half and especially in the climax otherwise a Classic script would have gone in vain.

Overall, 102 Not Out is Close to Classic Tag, i'm 90% calling it a Classic but 10% unsure because of some mistakes in the first half. Still, somewhere climax has hit the right chords so yes This One is A Classic. A Must Watch for all generation audience. I would have loved to go with 7.5/10* but it's not available on IMDb so yes 8/10* for this one and thumbs up for the team.

I am not a fan of bollywood movies for obvious reasons (there is not much good cinema left here). But every once in a while, a soul-searching movie like this comes out which just shakes me to the core of my heart. The great script coupled with the 2 greatest actors of all time, is just simply too good. Everyone should watch this movie.

Story was great it was an inspiration to live more and a great comedy presented by rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan. Real great movie loved it.
