3G: A Killer Connection

Watched "3G-A Killer Connection" yesterday –

Now why I am writing this review as because I am in a dilemma since I watched this movie. The Question is What is better –Is it to waste time for a mindless, spineless Blockbuster or its better to go for an average or rather a bad film which has clear cut message to the society, to the audience. I don't know which is better. Surely 3G is a bad movie but I had a mixed experience which I want to share here.

I don't go for the entire story because it will not do justice for a thriller/horror movie whether it is a bad or good one if I tell the story of it.In a nutshell Neil and his girlfriend was on a vacation in beautiful Fiji ,where they buy a mobile. After then mysterious calls from unknown number comes on it and also mysterious thing happened one after another. Subsequently also there was change in Neil's behavior towards his girlfriend and surroundings. Murder also occurred one after another, which ultimately revealed at the end.

Technically the movie is very bad in one word. There was a new Concept, Beautiful locations; wonderful cinematography, Neil's superb acting but none of them can saved this new generation movie. The Title card starts with a unique note but this newly concept movie failed because of horrible acting of Neil's co-starrers (including the heroine), poor script writing, lack of techniques and worst direction. Also the soundtrack n background score failed which particularly the second one I think is a very very important ingredient in a horror /thriller film. Also it lacks twists n turns in the middle of the film which made this movie slow in pace in its every part n boring sometimes.

Regarding acting Neil Nitin Mukesh is always one of my favorite and once again he delivered a wonderful performance after "DAVID". But after watching this I personally think Neil now have to be very choosy about his Films n should not do films like this in future. No words for other actor or actresses. So pathetic. Sonal Chauhan here present only to show her sexy body n cleavage.

So after reading the above paragraphs why you will watch this movie? I think, it will be for these following 5 points:- 1. A Totally New concept, New Generation Thriller. 2. Neil's one man show Performance. 3. Last 20 minutes of the movie where the thriller unfolded in a unique way. 4. Beautiful Fiji. 5. The message that delivered at the end of the movie.

So my friends who are Thriller/horror movie lovers can go for this once, but please don't see with your family ;-)

Just Remember Don't play with the humanity.Over all idea is good must see.The below is not completely true.

"3G -A killer connection was a good attempt at horror with sci-fi idea but was brutually slained by loose script and poor direction.

A young man's life changes overnight when he buys a new cellphone and receives a call from an unknown number.

After watching the trailer of 3G , you will feel urge to watch the movie but you would be solemnly disappointed by weak direction. The main problem with 3G is the indulgence of unnecessary songs which spoils the mood of the film and over-the-top acting by Sonal Chauhan. The movie itself does not run in one sequence as if there are multiple stories running parrallalaly. Screenplay is full of loop-holes. Editing is pathetic. Dialogues are senseless. Music is way to low. It is the cinematography and art direction which makes the film beautiful. Sonal Chauhan is wooden. It is Neil Nitin Mukesh who is the only silver lining in the movie. The talented actor emotes very well and carries off different personality with ease."

First off I don't understand what Neil Nitin Mukesh was thinking when signing for this film? The writers/directors of this movie shouldn't be allowed to make anymore films ever.

You have a budget to get somewhat of a decent actor Neil, and you have an opportunity to shoot in beautiful Figi Islands and you come up with this garbage? Fiji Island is likely to be the last place you'd think about horror.

Now onto this 3G crap: This is a 4G generation, 3G is old news and 3G is the speed of Internet on phones, not the cellular data which sends and receives calls. They made Engineers look bad because Engineers are practical people and do not believe in afterlife crap.

These morons did not even see 1920s/Raaz/Haunted which shows actual Indian horror. The only good thing about it was the Adnan Sami's song "Bulbulya" and they even cut that song into pieces with terrible Direction.

All in all, this movie was so terrible that I had to watch it in 2 days as I kept falling asleep. If you are thinking about watching it, just watch it to see Fiji Island and that's it.

Sam (Neil Nitin Mukesh) surprises his girlfriend Sheena (Sonal Chuhan) with a visit to her to Fiji. Sheena accidentally drops his phone into water. Later on when they set out to purchase a new phone, Sam's interest is grabbed by a second hand phone. Nonetheless he is satisfied after verifying that the phone supports 3G facility which apparently is his only need. Sam receives a call from an unknown number which happens to be a lady in pain . Sam overlooks and lets it go. But this scenario repeats itself constantly also their appears to be a dual identity outlook in Sam's living. However interesting it may sound mark my words it is not. When u have got a hold of whats happening you make up your mind that well whats the reason behind it i gotta know. Well i tried very hard to like the things which leads us to the climax but it is so f**king annoying and boring. It doesn't bores you actually it is a mental torture to be precise. It has taken two geniuses to come up with this trash. Yes guys the movie we are talking about here is directed by two people. Talking about the different aspects of the film. The movie is technically zero. You can literally see that the scenes have not been dubbed aptly. The facial expressions and the dialogs do not match each other. The writing is awful. The attempt at making this a scary and thrilling venture turned out to be futile and kills the film itself. The performances are so damn poor i can't start to tell about it. I was like why did Neil has to do this after a fabulous David ? I wonder and ponder. I now understand why Sonal Chauhan has not been getting movies she is GOD-awful in the acting area. The direction is the worst part of it. The music is good to the ear but not a single song fits in , i mean the song starts instantly at any moment. WHAT THE F. The background score is also very poor , A horror movies key ingredient is the score. There are only two major background scores, one is during any rapid scene and the other is Neil Nitin Mukesh's phone ring tone. Not at all suggested. Don't even bother downloading. But its pleasurable to those who want to seen Sonal Chauhan in a bikini, and the ones who get excited by on screen kissing. REST PLEASE DON'T

The screenplay obliterated the story. Maybe it can be dubbed as the worst screenplay of 2013 in Bollywood with a maddening plot that revolves around an unmarried couple who get into serious trouble after buying a second-hand smart-phone. Almost every sequence feels like they have been cut-short.

While Neil has portrayed his role in a very efficient way even though his character is ambiguous, Sonali is an object here with a parade of cleavages and skimpily-clad underthings with not much to act; a catalyst maybe. The music sucked big time with no respect to the vivid genre this story necessitates. One with a good message, the story of 3G is very confusing & poorly executed with shaky cinematography, amateur direction & even worse editing.

With every other person in Fiji Islands speaking Hindi, flashes of horrid faces here and there, sex, nudity, porn, foreplay, relationships, paranoia, schizophrenia, poor makeup, gruesome attitude and the rather clichéd and unorthodox idea of 'witchcraft' & black-magic instilled into technology, 3G is a disappointment. Plus, the climax is shown twice, literally.

Characters are very poorly rendered and gaudiness is the prime topic of this movie with almost everything (which is wrong) left to the viewer's imagination. Not recommended!

BOTTOM LINE: A good message lies in this haphazardly executed movie. Watch it for the high performances and some reality bites in a juxtaposition of poor film-making attributes & parameters.

Can be watched with a typical Indian family? NO
