Fox

If you are not prejudiced towards Sunny Deol, then you are going to love this movie if you watch it. I donno if it's copied or not, but it's well taken. It's sad that some deserving films don't get to do well at the box office.

The movie is a thriller that revolves around a corrupt lawyer turned good lawyer who retires from service,and gets involved in a series of murders he hasn't committed, when he dons the identity as the author of a book which he doesn't actually write. The investigating officer in the case is played by Sunny.

The rest is about how and if Arjun is able to get out of the melee he is in.

Direction is excellent, songs are noteworthy, acting is good, and the climax is unique. If you've watched Sunny Deol films before,you'll see that.

9 stars for FOX

Everything about the movie is sloppy. To establish the credentials of the main character, they show a case where he proves that the murdered lady was a person of low character and that the sex was consensual. The argument is so lackluster that it fails to impress. It does not make Arjun Rampal appear as a brilliant lawyer. At least they could have added some legal terminology to his dialogues, they could have made the case slightly tricky to underscore the skills of the defense lawyer. Arjun Rampal was bad as a lawyer, not very convincing. His language or body language does not convince me that he is a lawyer. He might as well have been a cop or paid assassin or even a model!

When he goes to Goa, he meets the author of Fix the Fox, a book that is supposed to be a masterpiece! First of all, the name is ridiculous! I could not even figure out why this title? And every character that picks up the book or the manuscript always praises the title! Sagarika Ghatge is slightly OK. The other lady is pathetic! She is supposed to be the owner of a publisher house, she appears to be an item song girl or some such pathetic profession! No effort is made to make her look like a publisher.

Sunny Deol is awful. He does not suit the role of a police officer with a Marathi name.

Direction is bad. The story does not move very fast. I miss the days when brilliant directors like Goldie Anand used to make people sit on the edge of their seat throughout the movie.

The climax is awful and unconvincing, just like the rest of the movie! I hope the movie flopped at the box office.

Deepak Tijori was mostly a sidekick in Hindi films but as a director his films are even worse

FOX could've been a good thriller but ends up a routine Hindi film The promos were interesting but the film ends up being a typical Hindi film with a long introduction for Arjun Rampal to some chase scenes

The climax is the worst part

Direction is awful Music is okay

Arjun Rampal has improved and seems confident on screen and acts well Sunny too in a subtle yet short role does well and thankfully no shouts Udita is okay and so are the others

Based on an awesome movie - murder of crows (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133985/).

As I started watching the movie, it kept coming to my mind that there is an awesome movie/novel previously made and after 1 hour of search on Google finally recalled the movie name - murder of crows. I think this is a great film coming out of bollywood, but the ending could have been much better.

Great story but I think the creators were thinking about the Hollywood movie and creating a bollywood movie. I am sure if this was converted to a more desi flick, it would have attracted much larger audience. It had a mixed flavor of both bollywood and Hollywood. Though I am not able to put finger on what exactly.

I am sure people will enjoy this movie - even though you have seen the Hollywood version. :)

Fox promises to be a mystery-suspense-thriller. The performances of all the lead actors is the best part of the movie. Had Deepak spent more time tightening the loose ends, Fox would have turned out to be an intelligent thriller.

ﮭ Arjun Rampal:: Post Rock On, this guy has mastered the grammar of performance. He delivers at ease.

ﮭ Sunny Deol:: Makes an entry just before the first-half and it is sad to see Sunny to be cut-down to such short roles. He should seriously re- invent himself. His character is pretty much the same we have seen umpteen number of times earlier.

ﮭ Sagarika Ghatke:: The "Chak De" is pretty glamorous and deserved more room to showcase her performance.

ﮭ Udita:: Nothing great - safe to say "usual".

ﮭ Vipul Gupta:: Perhaps his character was simply loud and used for diversion.

On technical front, the direction is good barring the jerky camera movements at few places.

While the audience expect "clever as a fox", Deepak Tijori delivers "crazy like a fox". Recommended only if aired on telly.
