Lupt

Watched this Hindi movie with subtitles and like sat through. Acting of some actors are good. The direction is neat. It is emotional film. Yes not scary. Simple story. The background music is good but in some places its little loud. VFX could have been better. This father character acted very well and the stranger on the road also acted very well. Like the momentum of few scenes. giving 5/10

I liked the movie because with a fair amount of suspense and twists. But it not that great either. So I'll admit that it isn't completely worthless. I think for its budget its a fairly decent movie. I will say that I liked the whole usage of the car. The script could have been bit better. Direction is not bad. Acting is decent. Over all a good timepass for me to see something different in horror genre.

My friend suggested me to watch Lupt saying it's a good horror movie. I have read some good reviews about this film. So took a chance and watched Lupt on Netflix. I wanted to see horror in the film, but it turned out to be a thriller for me. Not that movie is bad but its not my kind of film. Yes, the premise was good, but it is more of drama and some lengthy scenes. I don't think typical horror fans will like this film. The movie should have been promoted as a thriller and not as horror. Maybe I watched the full film because of Vijay Raaz and some good scenes of Jaaved Jaaferi. I am giving 5 stars for only for its decent acting and to the director for taking so much effort and making a film. If the director could have managed to tweak the story and make it a hardcore horror ,it would have been worked according to me.

Well, let's just start off by saying this movie is not one of the best in the horror genre but it's still its a pretty good one-time watch film. It's a little slow but if you have the time to watch it, you should. But you are looking for something very scary and stuff like that then this is not for you. Second half drags a bit, but it does have great suspense and does make you wonder a lot. I found the ending personally to be disappointing as there could have been alternate ending with some good twist. But otherwise It actually has a few very well executed scenes and some genuine attempt in the horror genre. So I'll admit that it isn't bad. Has it's really creepy moments, and even though there are few silly elements too, it still manages to remain relatively eerie throughout. The film is very well directed. Actors have done a fabulous job, especially Vijay Raaz. Meenakshi Dixit in good. Liked Rishab Chadha and his comic timings. Lupt is entertaining in spite of its flaws and low budget.

During lockdown the only entertainment was watching movies. Got to see Lupt on Netflix. There were some common horror cliches here. No network, car breakdown, getting lost on a strange road. However, I think that thats the case with most horror films. Moral of the story - always follow the known road and don't take shortcuts on trips because people that are close to you will either get murdered by a ghost, or go crazy, do something stupid and kill themselves. Nothing really special. Jaaved Jaaferi was good, Vijay Raaz is always the best, Rishab's comic timing was not bad, others were average. Story could have been better. Dialogues were ok. Direction was not bad. VFX not good. Although the plot twist was slightly predictable this was an overall one time watch for me. Giving 5/10
