Krrish 3

Laugh all you want, but it makes one of the most brilliant plots for a superhero movie.

1. Life giving device 2. Mutants (Maanvars) 3. Krrish saving Mumbai City from an epidemic. 4. Half brother (Kaal), a villain 10 times more powerful than Krrish himself. 5. Villain taking over Mumbai. 6. A great gladiator match between good and evil.

And the list goes on, it's a great example of brilliant writing but poor execution. Too much to show in a single movie, but I still love it because of not trying to copy Hollywood and maintaining it's very own original Indian feel. But many still troll it because we're just used to mock any effort Bollywood makes to make to make a great movie as "It's not as good enough as Hollywood", guess our minds are yet to have independence from white supremacy.

PROS

Initially my expectation were quite low as the trailer seemed like X- Men, Spiderman and Man of Steel. The movie exceeded my expectations in case of the basic plot. The basic story is not a rip off of any movie and neither are the character's motivations(except their powers are similar to X-Men characters, but that's forgivable). This movie is much much better than Ra.one when it comes to the storyline(though Ra.one and Robot had better special effects). The purely Indian vfx did what they could do with a meager budget(in comparison to Hollywood films) and without help from Hollywood. The special effects are impressive by Indian standards. And I commend the director to try and make such a movie. The final fight scene is impressive by Indian Standard( though it seems like Man of Steel with cheap special effects)

CONS

In spite of a decent plot, the movie makes a mess presenting it as the plot drags for 2 hours and 30 minutes with ridiculous songs and cheesy clichés. One thing I hated about this movie is the way it tried to show the concept of Krrish as a symbol(like Batman). While in Dark Knight Rises the anyone can be Batman concept and the unveiling of Batman's statue seemed epic. In Krrish something similar happens with a minister unveiling Krrish's statue. But instead of feeling epic like in Dark Knight Rises this scene is cheesy and laughable as this scene is the premise to that ridiculous Bhagwan Allah song, so you can see Krrish dancing in front of his own statue. Also the concept of anyone can be Krrish(Batman) is shown as a kiddy concept somewhat similar to how Shaktiman gives moral values to kids. The special effects seem like a video-game cut-scene(can be forgiven).

In the age of Dark and gritty superheroes this movie basically is made for kids aged 4-13. I would have loved this movie if it came 6-7 years ago. Minus the songs I would have rated it 6/10(me being lenient) and minus the whole Krrish is a symbol subplot and I would have rated it 7- 7.5/10 but the movie as a whole is average

Haven't found much attraction in this Version of Krish, have to fast forward on various occasions , I mean by putting up immature special effects and action sequences into a 2+ hours of film doesn't mean its gonna stick the audience to the screen for the whole time. The film directors in Bollywood should learn the way to not get over ambitious with Science Fiction Projects and over do things that could have been done the other way. For Example Rohit doesn't have to narrate everything that he is going to do next, that is annoying and looks immature in a film with such a budget (Learn something from your Neighbors latest release WAAR). Please avoid typical dancing sequences in such genre films, it distracts from the original story-line (Please don't tell me that Songs are one way of expressing the story, its an Action cum Science Fiction film for God Sake)

Overall I Rate it 5/10 only for the effort done by the poor Special Effects Team, which didn't got the right production team to work with for such films.

From the trailer, this movie looked more or less a copy of Hollywood superhero movies. Yet the expectation was high, coming after Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish. (No one knows where Krrish 2 went!)

But firstly, credit where credit is due. The action and the stunts and the special effects are top class. Specially if you compare it with the other Bollywood movies in the similar category like the rubbish Ra.One, it is a million times better. It is the same quality as X-men and Superman movies. Yet, the problem is that it just seems a copy of such movies. The focus on the mutants aspect was short but almost the same as X-men and the last fight scenes of Krrish and Kaal seem to be just a recreation of 'Man of Steel'. The only difference was that this being a Bollywood, Hindi movie, this had more aspects of emotional drama, songs and typical dialogs.

There wasn't enough element of surprise. You knew what was coming and with a weak story, even the connect with the audience wasn't that great. In the first half, I felt like I was watching Shaktimaan in one scene. The music and songs aren't good at all and totally unnecessary. Even Hrithik's dance wasn't anything to rave about. Krrish was shown to be doing just a bit too many things at a time. The acting is OK, Hrithik and Kangana have done well but the story just seemed very weak.

Having said all that, kids would love this movie and people who don't watch Hollywood movies can watch this for the action and special effects. I can also see this movie earning through merchandise and other things. Great or not, this movie is definitely going to earn a lot but it could have definitely been better in some aspects.

OK! From where do I begin....

Krrish 3 was a torture!

he songs were desperate attempts to create music out of the themes of its prequel.

The story line was completely predictable!

I mean; Who would've expected a mutant to destroy the mutant race!

Acting was good but was never backed with a good script.

Some of the scenes seemed to be completely bogus!

Perhaps; this looked more like an Indian version of the X-Men series!

Vivek Oberoi tried being Magneto but he was a complete disaster!

The only plus point I found was the technique that was used in making the movie.

Apart from that; everything fell way beyond expectations.
