Crazxy

I don't know why everyone is calling this like one of the best thrillers. I honestly felt only parts of the film to be engaging. Other than that it was just a normal story being continued.

First half was almost average for me. Second half picked up the story and some level of thrill was present. Though the ending was pretty underwhelming for me. I predicted it few seconds early, the finale and still it wasn't exactly clear to me why.

Barring the ending also the thrill factor wasn't constant. I didn't even feel anything for the characters. I was like why even go through all that effort by the character.

Honestly, I was disappointed but it was, what it was.

Making a movie with the protagonist as the only cast is a unique . Sohum Shah delivers the onerous task as an actor quite well. The Cinematography is top class with background music keeping pace. The let down is that Sohum 's character is not fleshed enough ( though it began promisingly with middle finger showing sequence with biker in the beginning) While it was intelligent to show the way he named his characters as " white coat", " Ex" , not many people who watched get to understand why did he name people like that. What suddenly causes him into regret as a father is not well established. The first half is slow and doesn't really build the tension. The second half however is fast and fulfilling. The only drawback for is was that at least we could predict the climax.

Having watched this film today, I can confidently say that it delivers an incredibly authentic and dynamic cinematic experience. The storytelling is immersive, keeping the audience engaged with suspense at every turn. The realism in the narrative makes it deeply relatable, and the film's ability to capture raw human emotions is truly commendable.

One of the strongest aspects of the movie is how it explores relationships under pressure. It beautifully portrays the essence of true relationships-how they are tested in difficult times and how genuine care is revealed in moments of crisis. This emotional depth adds weight to the story, making it more than just a suspenseful thriller.

The cinematography is outstanding, with cleverly executed shots that enhance the storytelling. Every frame feels meticulously planned, and the direction ensures that the tension never wanes. The background score is another major highlight, perfectly complementing the mood of each scene. The music intensifies the drama, making key moments even more impactful.

While the film excels in many aspects, the climax fell slightly short of my expectations. Given the gripping build-up, I anticipated a more powerful conclusion. However, this does not take away from the overall brilliance of the film. It remains an engaging and thrilling watch.

I would rate this movie 7 out of 10. Despite minor letdowns in the climax, it is a film worth watching multiple times. The meticulous direction, strong performances, and exceptional background score make it a cinematic experience that stays with you. If you appreciate suspenseful storytelling with emotional depth, this film is definitely a must-watch.

Crazxy: Overhyped but Underwhelming

*"Crazxy" is an okayish movie with a simple plot, but the way it was promoted and the hype surrounding it don't do it justice. Some unnecessary elements were added to the storyline, which felt out of place, especially given the movie's already short runtime. Sohun Shah's performance was commendable, and the background score was well done.

There was an emotional touch to the film, which worked well in certain scenes. However, the way it was marketed created a completely different expectation, making the final product feel underwhelming. After Tumbbad, expectations were naturally high, but Crazxy falls short in comparison. While it has its moments, the storytelling lacks the depth and intrigue that made Tumbbad so impactful. The use of mythological references, like Abhimanyu and Chakravyuh, could have added richness to the plot, but they felt forced and didn't contribute meaningfully.

Overall, Crazxy had potential, but the execution didn't live up to the anticipation. It's a decent watch, but not the groundbreaking experience many were expecting.

I rated it 5 for Cinematography, background score and acting of Sohum Shah, as he's the only actor in this film, rest of the cast are in voice role. But man I'm disappointed with this movie, it's a glorified short movie. I mean even 90 mins is dragged. You can see this kind of story in facebook video with AI narration. Not a movie that you should go to theatre to watch. Complete waste of money.

According to me a thriller only works if the climax works but the climax doesn't work. I guessed the climax at the start of the movie and I hoped to myself that please don't be that but it was that and it sucked hard. No need to check other review. Idk what they are on while reviewing but this, this is absolute sh#t of a thriller.
