Crakk: Jeetega... Toh Jiyegaa

Don't waste your time guys.

No story line at all. Every thing is so random. Individual scenes put together without thinking about it. The amount of low quality CGI used is laughable.

Voiceover is also horrible.. just avoid it and save some time.

Vidyut is such a let down. Has no acting skills. We that explains why he does these kind of films. Nora fatehi, plz stay out of acting or atleast learn acting.

Feel sorry for Arjun as he might have felt after seeing this movie. Why in the world did he agree to this absolutely cra* of a movie.

Watch this movie of you would like to laugh at utter nonsense.

Recently watched the movie, and I have to say it left me with worst feelings. The acting was below the line, nothing extraordinary but not terrible either. I'd rate it around a 1 out of 10.

Now,the music and sound effects good. They were ordinary,there were unnecessary typical Bollywood songs. 3 out of 10 there.

As for the action, it was decent, but it didn't blow me away. I'd say it's about a 3 out of 10. The story was weak, definitely different from what I expected,even movie Luck(2009) was better for story point of view. However, there were moments where it felt a bit cluttered with unnecessary subplots. I'd give the story a 3 out of 10.

On the visual side, the cinematography was fake amd tiddy. The scenes were shot good but fake graphics were included. The movie felt sped up a bit, I'd rate it around an 4 out of 10.

Overall, I'd say the movie was not so good. It had lows aling with some highs , but it's not worth to watch if you're into something a bit different than your usual bollywood movies.

Review: Crackk (2024)

Crackk offers a rollercoaster of action-packed sequences, showcasing innovative concepts rarely seen in Bollywood. The camera work deserves applause for capturing the adrenaline-fueled moments with perfection. Among the four action sequences, the long-awaited showdown between Arjun and Vidyut in the climax stands out, delivering a thrilling experience.

However, the film isn't without its flaws. Vidyut's accent, haircut, and dressing style may be distracting, accompanied by subpar acting. Despite being a favorite, Amy Jackson's role falls flat, while Arjun Rampal shines with his usual brilliance in both acting prowess and looks. Bijoy Anand delivers commendable performance, but the repetitive ghostly appearances of Ankit Mohan become tiresome. Nora Fatehi's portrayal is average at best.

The first half of the film could have been tighter, enhancing the overall pacing and engagement. Nevertheless, Crackk remains a worthwhile watch primarily due to its high-octane action sequences. If you're a fan of adrenaline-pumping thrills, this movie won't disappoint.

"Crakk - Jeetegaa Toh Jiyegaa!" directed by Aditya Datt, attempts to deliver a sports action thriller centered around the high-stakes world of extreme sports competitions. Starring Vidyut Jammwal, Arjun Rampal, Nora Fatehi, and Amy Jackson, the film dives into the adrenaline-fueled realm of legal and illegal competitions, reminiscent of events organized by Red Bull and other extreme sports promoters.

The plot revolves around Siddhant Dixit, aka Siddhu (played by Vidyut Jammwal), an adrenaline junkie driven by the legacy of his elder brother who died in a past competition. Siddhu enters a high-stakes contest in Poland where 32 global contestants vie for an $80 million prize. Arjun Rampal's character, Dev, serves as the ring leader of "Maidaan," the sinister mastermind behind the game show and its underground betting and drug trade operations.

Arjun Rampal's portrayal of Dev stands out as a classic yet flawed antagonist. His performance is reminiscent of his role in "Ra. One," delivering a mix of charisma and menace. However, his efforts are sometimes undermined by the script, which fails to provide compelling dialogue for his character. Vidyut Jammwal excels in the action sequences, bringing his martial arts prowess to the screen with a natural ease. His portrayal of Siddhu during the high-octane sports scenes is commendable, but his performance falters in dialogue-heavy and emotional scenes. The attempt to portray him as a "Tappori" from Mumbai feels forced, lacking the authenticity needed to make the character believable.

Nora Fatehi's role as Alia, an influencer associated with the game show, is largely superficial. While her dance skills and screen presence add visual appeal, her acting falls short, raising questions about her suitability for the role. Amy Jackson, playing Polish cop Patricia Novak, fares slightly better, as her polylingual character suits her natural accent. However, her overall performance lacks the depth and confidence needed to fully engage the audience.

The film's story, while promising, suffers from weak dialogue and a lackluster supporting cast. The narrative struggles to maintain coherence and fails to deliver the emotional impact it aims for. The high-octane action sequences and extreme sports scenes are the film's saving grace, providing the thrills and excitement that fans of the genre crave. However, these elements alone cannot compensate for the film's broader shortcomings.

"Crakk - Jeetegaa Toh Jiyegaa!" is reminiscent of the 2009 movie "Luck," starring Imraan Khan and Sanjay Dutt, in its attempt to blend high-stakes competition with dramatic tension. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite achieve the same level of engagement. While the film may find an audience among action enthusiasts and could serve as a guilty pleasure for some, it ultimately falls short of its potential, offering a mix of exhilarating action and missed opportunities.

"To make a great film, you need three things - the script, the script, and the script," emphasized Alfred Hitchcock.

Unfortunately, the narrative of this particular movie fails to captivate. The characters are thinly sketched, lacking the depth necessary to truly resonate with the audience. Even the protagonist's motivations seem to lack authenticity, leaving viewers disconnected from the story.

To ensnare the audience's attention, Makers resorted to a bombardment of action, seemingly unaware of its incongruity with the tale at hand, employing it as a desperate lifeline to sustain intrigue.

In conclusion, Vidyut's open challenge to Tiger, who epitomizes the trend towards mindless action movies.
