Lost

Sameer lodaya.

The movie is well balanced between the fact and assumption

The movie has a general content of a missing boy in which a politician is involved..yami as a criminal reporter tries to join the dots and investigates about the missing boy

The making is very good with yami again played a very strong character after her thrilling movie A THURSDAY though she looked a little soft but managed very well as good support by pankajji, Rahul as usual looks very fresh and young also played a smart politician...some scenes were really very strong in dialogues deliveries

The core part of the movie is the climax which is very good and will ask you what is right and wrong

Let's see how other movies performs as there are many releases this weekend.

What could have been 45 mins short film is stretched for 2 hours. Story is just ok, nothing extraordinary. Many story points dont have much logic. As far as performances are concerned, Yami Gautam is fine not the best, Pankaj Kapoor is legend anyways so he wont disappoint, Rahul khanna is ok, other actors are also just fine. There is one interview in last 40 mins, even if you start watching from there, you will understand all the story till that point. Critics are giving unnecessary high reviews to this film. They made the film like something very artistic and award winning, that effort is visible, directors do this now a days, when they have no substance, they try to make it artistic.

If you want to address too many issues and you don't have strong story nothing can save you. Lost picked up haphazardly and then set some momentum but then collapsed. Everyone tried little too hard and no actor other than Rahul Khanna is convincing. Yami sadly was main lead and her role was most confusing. She had to be brave, journalist, vulnerable and she get connected to the antagonist due to her father.

Film was too repetitive and unnecessary songs were introduced which did nothing but were irritating. At times you too give up with Yami that film will remain bleak with unnecessary introduction of unnecessary plots. Most hilarious was the ending when you hear lecture which was more repulsive as you know how whole plot that was built has been collapsed and now director wants to save himself by telling the viewer how you have been made sucker.

Skip it to save headache l.

Film Review: Lost streaming on ZEE5 !!

Feels strange reviewing a film after nearly a year post release !! But here goes ...

Inspired by true events, Lost is an investigative thriller that tells the story of a woman crime reporter who is working on the mysterious disappearance of a young theatre activist in Kolkata. Is he a naxalite or simply an innocent man caught up in dirty politics!!

Great acting by Yami Gautam as the protagonist and crime reporter .. she totally rocks!! Pankaj Kapoor as her father , Rahul Khanna as a wily politician and others in the cast have done their jobs well.

This shows that a film with a strong script, great cast and direction can really create magic !!

Starts off in a laid back manner, very much like the city of joy , 'Kolkata' where the events happen. However the film picks up pace slowly and the twists and turns will definitely keep u intrigued till the end !!

On the flip side , some loose ends needed to be tied up .. some questions left unanswered.. could have been tightened up a bit !!

Grt watch !! I know this is a late review .. but hey .. " better late than never.. rt 😊"

Going with 3.5/5... adios 🙂!!

Lost is a political thriller drama which makes you question about a lot of society problems and of course the government politics. Vidhi a journalist whose aim is to cover and know the story of a lost guy who's suddenly been missing with no reason. Movie sets it's tone from start gets gripping every minute and start questioning your mind with different situations and aspects of lots of political issues. But can a simple journalist make the questioning to the high sector like minister and big political name of India that still hard to believe. Story & Direction is on point but movie is very slow paced and sometimes it gets you bored because each character takes it's time rather to go on a fast note because story isn't unique or different as we've seen previous films based on this just had different perspectives. For ex. KAHAANI is the prime example of a thriller and this film will give you vibe of Kahaani film. YAMI GAUTAM shines in the whole movie and her performance is the only highlights of the film rest of the cast is good but could've been better. Screenplay could've been more tight as it is very slow paced with a slow story. It's an interesting story to follow but it's not everyone's cup of tea.....
