Ungli

There is no story. It gives feeling of episodic compilation of some common problems, faced by public. No connection between all incidents. Dialogues by Milan Milap Zaveri, are very good. Starting 15 minutes, film sounds good but as it progresses, it takes downward journey only. I support this type of idea or issue based film, so I am positively biased with this type of film and cursing myself to write against it but I am helpless. It is at least better than all that craps who don't have anything to tell and execution remains bad too. Makers believe that a blind person can't recognize anyone because in a scene Randeep Hooda talks to his love interest with mask, even for few minutes but she was unable to recognize him!!? Can Deepawali heavy crackers erupt the road!? This road was erupted in night but remains same in next day being it is very important to one of a powerful person!!? Climax could have been very interesting and innovative but having the germs they could not make it even good. It is bad actually. Everything has taken for granted that this have to happen so it happened. Love interest was not required at all. There are lots of contradiction of the statement and behavior of main characters. They use masks to hide their identity and then also resist a person who does the work like them only and shockingly they were very much concerned about their image, when they are just mask man then if anyone does good job using mask it would have been fine for them. They are not doing a business so they oppose a same stuff doing rival. Few scenes are good but unrealistic. The running in stadium and the traffic police scene are good but again presentation was pushy. Performance wise lots of good actors are nothing to do. Surprisingly Randeep Hooda is very good. Sanjay Datt, Emran Hashmi, Kangana Ranuat and Neha Dhupiya is just OK. Music is good.

Ungli starts off really well. There is nothing new in the plot. The characters are quite fresh and look appropriate for there roles. The incidents happen quite quickly and you will the movie will be a racy thriller. Sadly, it starts to falter after first 20 minutes and then it just drags along. There is nothing in the movie which takes you by surprise and it becomes quite boring towards the end. Acting wise Randeep Hooda, Neha Dhupia and Angad Bedi have done reasonably well. Emraan Hashmi and Kangana Ranaut are wasted.There was no need for Sanjay Dutt and anyone could have played that role. The songs are not needed and just bore you. Overall, Ungli turns out to be a carbonated drink which fizzes out as soon as you open the bottle !

After a long time bollywood had made an entertaining film on a new concept.It feels true as we all are a part of this corrupt system which has been depicted in the movie.The main question is that who is responsible for this?I think it is among one of the toughest questions which should be debated.Corruption is the most common but very sensitive topic.Rensil dealt with this topic in a very sincere manner.The film never depicts over the top and always revolves around real situations.The screenplay was very slick.It was written very well.It revolved around the common problems we face everyday so it gave a feel of reality.No doubt it contained some loopholes but they could be forgiven as the screenplay was very tight and never let you to blink your eyes.Performance of Emraan hashmi was good.He delivered what he should have done.Randeep was good and his dialogue delivery was really nice.Sanjay dutt looked out of the form and Kangna was like a showpiece.Rest of the cast was average.Music of this movie was disappointing.Except Dance basanti every track was bad.Some dialogues were funny while some where too filmy.Overall this movie is made on a new concept and the concept is universal.A watchable movie especially for youngsters.... RATING : 6.9 out of 10 as the music was too bad

'Ungli' has a good premise & to an extent, it does justice to it. But, overall, the Writing Material, despite its noble & genuine intentions, doesn't work entirely. Its interesting in parts, not totally.

'Ungli' Synopsis: A gang of friends decide to take justice into their own hands & turn into vigilantes. Things take a turn when a cop goes undercover to grill them.

'Ungli' makes an honest attempt to take upon the burning issue of corruption that exists in our country even today. The film begins well & the 'Ungli' Gang give us some gripping sequences, but the pace drops as soon as the Cop enters the scene. The second-hour doesn't hold appeal & the culmination looks hurried. Despite a crisp running-time of 113-minutes, 'Ungli' still isn't able to rise above its flaws.

Rensil D'Silva's Screenplay works in bits & pieces. A much tighter second-hour was needed. Milan Zaveri's dialogue, however, are super. D'Silva's Direction is ordinary. Cinematography & Editing are mention-worthy. Music by Various Artists is tuneful.

Performance-Wise: Sanjay Dutt delivers a restrained performance. Emraan Hashmi is sincere, although the length of his role is surprisingly short in the first-hour. Randeep Hooda is ever-effective. Kangana Ranaut doesn't get much to do. She looks gorgeous, though. Angad Bedi & Neil Bhoopalam are fair. Neha Dhupia is passable.

On the whole, 'Ungli' is a half-baked fare.

I didn't really have much expectations of Ungli. The trailers looked okay, but it didn't give much away and didn't really excite me but the film really does surprise and is very much worth the watch. Ungli is all about corruption in India, which is by no means a new story line but its portrayed quite nicely in this film. While there is nothing 'outstanding' about the film, and its not likely to come close to any box office records it's one of those films that is a good family film - without an obvious genre.

Performance wise it's really a group effort. Randeep Hooda has a lot more screen time in the first half, but Emraan Hashmi in the second. Sanjay Dutt is pretty much the main character throughout the film and does a stellar job of a role that is very easy for him. Randeep yet again puts in a brilliant performance and is now such a reliable actor. It's quite clear that he isn't a mainstream hero, but as a supporting actor he is one of the best in the industry. Emraan is his charming self, and it's quite nice for him to do a film which contains no obvious romance. Kangna and the others do well in their respective roles too.

The music is catchy and suits the film well. I'm quite happy that the songs weren't randomly pushed in requiring the actors to actually sing, but more in the background which suited the film. Dance Basanti is very catchy (Shraddha looks fantastic!), Auliya and Pakeezah are both beautiful.

Overall the film is a good watch but nothing amazing. Watch it for Randeep and Emraan.
