Looop Lapeta

I was eagerly waiting for this movie since I saw the trailer. It surely has a brilliant concept, although it's a remake of German cult Run Lola Run. But this movie is completely Indianized. A large section of people are hating it just because it stars Tapsee pannu. But look beyond all that and appreciate the art. It's technically brilliant, beautifully shot. Cinematography, art, production design, music is great. It does have it's flaws as well. People may find Time loop thrillers boring due to its repetitive nature of events in the movie, this movie suffers a bit there but that's compensated by the wackiness of the characters and the way their whole world is shown to us. Tapsee is great to watch, but Tahir Raj Bhasin steals the show. Also noteworthy to mention the characters of two brothers, they've done a great job. Even if it's a remake, it's still better as a genre concept. It's not a masterpiece, but it should be viewed as it is. Once you get sucked into the world of these characters, it's a great ride. This movie can be put with the likes of Kaalakandi, Delhi belly, Mard ko Dard nahi hota, etc. Hindi film industry needs to make such kind of movies more.

I'm simply fed up of Bollywood's petty remakes. Where is the originality? Looop Lapeta is another lame remake of a very entertaining German thriller 'Run Lola Run'. Even the dialogues are the same; they've translated the German dialogues in Hindi without even thinking for a second that they don't seem to fit the Indian context.

Tahir deserves better movies/shows.

First thing I want to say is that this film is visually amazing. I don't remember if I've seen such type of camera work & editing in any Indian film before. Now, the film tried to be a dark comedy, but unfortunately most of the moments didn't work specially the scenes of two brothers. Some scenes were very unnecessary. But, loved the mythological angle.

Both Taapsee & Thahir were okay but in supporting cast only the character of Divyendu was memorable. I enjoyed watching the film specially in the 1st half. The positive thing of a time loop film is that you can't stop the film in middle. Finally, it's good to see this type of making in a Hindi film. Bollywood should explore these genres more, maybe one day they'll take the best out of it. So, watch it.

Available on Netflix.

I really enjoyed the film, it successfully creates wacky, fun, thrilling ride and keeps you super glued to your screen. I know it's a remake of Run Lola Run, but still one needs to adapt the film in your environment and time frame, the director perfectly done his job in this regard. Tahir and Tapsee are on point in the film. Here and there you find some easter eggs and homages, these are note worthy.

The monolog of Shneha Dhanwantry and the two brothers Appu and Gappu are the other highlights of the film. I need to congratulate it's technical team for the efforts they make for this film, it is very praiseworthy. Keep looking for your next venture Mr. Akash Bhatia, your Edger Wright style of filmmaking is phenomenal.

I always admire the choices of Tapsee, despite her hits and misses.

I didn't watch the Original German film. But this movie seems meaningless plot. Only time pass. Netflix hindi making totally scrap nowadays. I think Indian Bengali films got better plot. Netflix should try Bengali film.
