Prince

the movie is about a person called prince ( vive oberoi ) who has done a biggest heist in life and suddenly he wakes up to find that his memory is lost. such a person is been chased repeatedly by fake Maya ( neeru sing and nandana sen ) . the story takes a turn when real Maya ( aruna shields ) enters the movie. then the movie gets the slow side and the concept is all about a coin that has a memory chip which has been used for prince. now prince will die in 6 days slowly . can he survive and destroy the gangsters behind him. watch out for prince. cast wise performance : vive is suitable for the role. aruna is good as Maya. sanjay kapoor has done a neat role. Issiah is good as a villain.

plus points : action scenes

songs

scenarios minus points : a different depth story that did"t make up to best.

no much robbery scenes except the first

unnecessary roles of Maya"s.

a drag a bit story

no indication of the stolen heist whereabouts

over all prince fails in proper execution of the story and ends in a predictable way with a different approach of climax using CGI"s . a good passable entertainer and can be watched once.

Prince satiates the Indian audiences' need for an action science-fiction thriller with spectacular stunts and technology. It is about a suave and stylish thief aptly named Prince. He wakes up one day with a blank mind at his beachside house. Then starts the adventure of Prince towards discovering who he is and why people are behind him.

Coming to the structure of the film, it has more than enough substance in the form of action sequences as well as songs. Twists are placed suitably and you get to feel enthralled when watching the story on screen. One thing should be said - the film might feel incomplete at some places - but that does not outright disturb the viewing experience. You will never get bored while watching this film.

Performance of every actor is splendid. Vivek Oberoi lives in the character of Prince and he has showcased all emotions ranging from vulnerability to confidence very well throughout the film. It is a treat to watch him execute his plans. The 3 heroines have done their job nicely. Sanjay Kapoor, Isaiah, Dalip Tahil have portrayed their characters very well and deserve special mention. The movie has high standards of believable unbelievability and handles such things well.

The film boasts of a sound technical team. Vishnu Rao's cinematography has captured the mood of the film very efficiently - there are beautiful shots during action sequences, and the tropical colour tones used in outdoor shooting is pleasing to the eye. Visual effects are splendid as per 2010 standards. This film has the potential to capture the attention of the youth and teenagers because of its catchy songs. Each song is a gem and it must be said that such a strong soundtrack with a perfect entertainer is a rare combination. Background music of the film coupled with the sound design compose one of the best audio outputs that have never been heard before. Editing is apt and the complex action shots have been handled well. Length of the film is completely justified.

The only negatives we can see are that a few characters are not given ample extension i.e. they could have been given more scenes. Serena and PK are two such characters. Also, the film carries a sort-of dated look that might not go down well with some people.

It is sad that we had not been able to appreciate this film at the time of its release. Such entertainers are very rare in Hindi cinema. Do not miss it on TV as it needs just a receptive mind to feel the movie. And who knows, you may become a fan of Prince as well as Vivek Oberoi. Highly recommended (even for repeat watching).

The movie's story is actually good. Lots of backstabbing and twist. Some are quite obvious but some are real good. Acting was also acceptable. The thing that takes this ship down is the direction. This usually don't happen but the movie was a flop maily because of poor direction . The scenes were forced and slow. The cars and bikes in the chase sequences were so slow that i felt i drive faster than them on Kolkata roads. I thinks its because in most scenes it felt like the actor himself was riding the motorcycle, which sounds commendable but is not. They cannot do what a professional stuntsman can. Also one bike chase scene was way too long. Might have been fun to watch had the riders been not following the speed limits. The technology shown was quite good in many scenes, new for the time and the audience.

I believe if you run this movie at 1.5x speed, this movie might actually be really good.

Gulati's 'Prince' is pretty much another one of those horrible presents that are covered in beautiful giftwrap. It starts off with the title character stealing a coin (yes, of all things he steals a coin which is, as you'll see later, worth millions or whatever). Anyway, then he finds himself awake in his condo with no recollection of anything. Yup, he don't even remember his own name. A servant feeds his memory but that ain't enough. He goes to a nightclub and sees a hot slut performing an item number. She claims to be his girlfriend Maya. The morning after, he receives a phonecall from a seductress (Nandana Sen with overdone makeup), who also claims to be his girlfriend Maya. After some doubts and encounters, Prince is sure that seductress number two is the real Maya until it turns out that she's a 'chamchi' of a pathetic crackwhore kingpin and the truth is revealed that kingpin and chamchi orchestrated this in order to obtain the coin from Prince. Prince is then rescued by seductress number 3 (played by a newcomer whose name I don't know but she looks hot and cannot act). Now this number 3 also claims to be Maya. Who is the real Maya? Why does everyone want the coin? What's happened to Prince's memory.

My proper answer would be: Who cares? But if you still want to waste precious time then just watch this horrendous movie which has very good special effects. The slow motions are quite retarded (as they almost always look in Bollywood movies). If the intention was to make a slick action movie why use slow motion at all? I really think Bollywood movies should avoid using slow motion. The camera-work is impressive and the songs are forgettable (some are downright horrible).

Vivek Oberoi is adequate. His performance mainly suffers from bad writing. I can only imagine he did this film because he badly needed a hit and hopefully he got that so that now he can focus on doing meaningful cinema. The rest of the actors are downright bad. Nandana Sen is unintentionally funny.

'Prince' is all gloss and no substance. Enough said.

Okay, I went to the theater and watched this film. And now I am sure i wasted 2 hours of my life, and Rs. 40 of my pocket money. But to the readers who are viewing this review , I recommend to watch this movie. It's such a bad action thriller that it has become a good comedy. 3 Mayas and all the twist ( NOT IN THE PLOT BUT IN THEIR FIGURES :P ). Lots of skin, lots of guns, lots of bad acting, and scenes copied from films like Iron Man. Vivek Oberoi does a good job making look everything comic. Oh, few things more...they also tried to make it a sci-fi one. but i don't know how does a chip made with nanotechnology be visible with our naked eyes, and I also didn't know this fact that to delete something safely from a computers hard drive is to reboot it...whatever, Watch this movie and laugh like you haven't done it in a long time...
