Trapped

Trapped is a brilliant piece of art.

I had read about the exceptional reviews the movie had got at MAMI fest and damn,i was not not disappointed. Survival dramas are not really a forte in Bollywood.But every once in a while we get such plot driven,tight scripts that it re instills my faith in Indian cinema.Though it is on the lines of Cast away and 127 hours,what makes this unique is this not a isolated location but right in the rush-hush of Mumbai!The protagonist Shaurya (Rajkummar) gets trapped in a high rise with no food,water,electricity and the movie effectively captures his despair,attempts to break loose and finally,embracing his fears.

Rajkummar is effortless and brilliant.Geetanjali is good in her short but pivotal role.Special shout out to the cinematographer and score by Aloknanda Dasgupta,its haunting! The script is the boss here,kudos to the writers to have guts to attempt something like this. Vikramaditya is top notch as usual making this engaging,nail biting movie.I did wish he captured the psychological side of Shaurya(Rajkummar) throughout his ordeal a bit more eloquently and gave it more screen time.The climax sequence could have been even more better.

Overall its a great movie,must watch :)

Trapped, isolated, hostage situations, those movies are great to me because you get to know the characters much more in dept.

If you like movies such as, All is lost The thing Terminal 127 hours ATM frozen (not the animated movie) the terminal die hard to name just a few, then you're not going to be disappointed of Trapped. Don't get turned off by the language being Hindi because there is very little dialog and it's not integral to the plot.

One question for the writers though, why didn't he check for dry walls between apartments. That would be the first thing I would do :)

#Trapped is Indian bollywood path breaking film that holds us from the start to the end. We saw Cast Away,127 hours, Life Of Pi and The Revenant Movie.We were thinking that when our bollywood filmmakers make this kind of survival film? This one is for those people.The best part of this movie is sharp screenplay by Amit Joshi and Hardik Mehta.They covered all little little detail of human nature and psychopaths.Rajkumar Rao takes us alive through all his acts.The background score and elements they have used are just amazing and eye catching.Throwing cardboards,Write by blood,The Chat with rat,eating pigeon and the abstract scenes that affects rajkumar's character are captivating.The one liner message is truly conveyed."Freedom lies beyond fear".Hats off to Vikramaditya Motwane for directing something that was not presented in our cinema and for not giving disturbance interval in the movie.Must watch for alive feeling....

Watch it right now or you will be missing one of most heart touching experiences bollywood has to offer.

It keeps you on the edge of your seat.for all those who are giving more 'logical' solutions, it shows common behaviour that an ordinary man will exhibit. He was npt some bear grylls or some escape artist.
