Line of Descent

Well I watched this movie only due to Abhay. A bit disappointed to see he was not given that much screen space in the movie as others. But apart from Abhay, Ronit roy was a treat to watch in this movie. He pulls this kind of role to the perfection. Neeraj Kabi was average. I don't know there was something different about his performance. Maybe it was he didnt suited the character. Coming to Prem Chopra, it was good to watch him after in a movie.

Apart from performances the story was pretty average. Slow paced but not that boring as people are saying the movie is. Very predictible.

Last line, watch this movie if you are a fan of Abhay, Neeraj or Ronit. Other than that there are better crime movies than this one.

At best "Line of Descent"is an average movie with matching direction and acting by everyone, except Brendan Fraser who was an absolute disaster. The production values were very poor and this further reduced the quality of the film.

When I first saw its trailer in one of the streaming site, I had high hopes of from this movie with ensemble star cast like Ronit, Abhay, Neeraj Kabi and above all Brendan Fresar. 15 minutes into watching and got to know that I was wrong, a great potential got wasted . Narrative of this movie is very patchy, no thrill moment, it's like a family drama. Ronit's role was short, Neeraj and Abhay was ok. I don't know what makers wanted to show - a family issue, a thriller or action. But found nothing. Only good thing was it's running time which typically was less.

We decided to watch it because we are big fans of Abhay and to a lesser extent Ronit. It looks like they got Abhay on board with a small role to serve as clickbait for people like us :-( Ronit gave the best performance of the lot so it wasn't a complete loss.

The movie started out with some promise as the story of generations of criminals but then got lost in various side stories. And what was Brendan Fraser doing in the movie?

A good crime family drama. Director's view of crime is well noted, screenplay seems to be nice, acting was fairly delivered on the screen. In fact the character of Sidharth was amazing he seems to be fit quite well in Delhi goon image. Dialogues were good. Situations are well placed and applause for director's effort for the film. Very well written as well as adapted on the screen.
