Ghost

Ghost- A convoluted complex heist thriller that will blow your mind at the end as the deep rock is carved to see the diamond. The plot is mixed with so many layers (like an onion) in the first half, and one will be thinking what's going on here?, but patience prevails in the second half as it is slowly peeled or revealed with a big bang! Shivanna is classic with his scary looks as "THE OG", and the role is perfected with class and style. The screenplay is as fast as F35 fighter jets, and races ahead with full force. Director Srini is a genius as he waves his magical screenplay with a masterstroke by tying all the knots at the end. BGM is loud and hits right to the moments they want to capture. GHOST indeed is a BOOST to Srini's creativity and a FEAST in the intelligent thriller genre.

Smash hit written all over it ! Sooper acting by shivanna and Jayaram,classy action sequences and nice story..first half a bit dragged, second half is steamy ! Background score by Arjun Janya is racy, lot of whistle worthy scenes in the movie.

A must watch for shivanna fans.

Srini has again proved to be a director with a vision ! His screenplay,usage of rat as a catalyst for carrying messages is innovative and unexplored !

Screentime of 2 hours 10 mins, lack of a full length song is great in this generation of 3 Hour long overly stretched movies !

Blockbuster for Dussehra💐 4/5 rating. Cheers.

An Excellent Action thrillers without any song or dance and also importantly without so much violence. Lots of twist and turns in the story and also an unexpected climax. Shivrajkumar's heroic act is really appreciable. Even without a heroin, he was able to lead the movie on his own manner. Another important thing about this movie is Jayaram's character. I didn't expect that he can do such rude character, as I'm from Kerala, I used to watch his comedy movies. His Character was also really appreciable. Anupem Kher have done his guest appearance in a good manner. Another brilliant thing about the movie was its BGM.

Each and every bit is unique, kudos to the team and especially director MG Srinivas best heist action thriller. Special mention to the music director Arjun janya sir, we can say music is the soul of the entire movie arjun janya's career best music. Now coming to the OG the man who can creates magic with his eyes, at the age of 61 performing that stunts is not everyones cup of tea. The whole movie is blasted by shivanna. One of the best movies from shivaana. Anand dalavaie best character. The best part of this movie is its duration 2:07 hrs movie passes like a flick. The special mention to the editing team best work. The deaging technique has been worked very well. Last 30 minutes goosebumps every second.

Amidst the protest against privatization of prisons, ex-CBI officer Vamana Srinivasan wins the bid for the central prison. On it's inaugural event, a mysterious man with his gang successfully hijacks the prison and keeps the prisoners as hostages along with the jailer and Vamana himself. ACP Chengappa is assigned this case and he tries to figure out the motive behind this hijacking and how to nab the mastermind while the OG, is at times few steps ahead of everyone. What is the reason for the hijacking and who is this mysterious guy, the answers to all the questions is not present in this film for sure.

It's a treat to watch Shivanna shine on screen, completely surrending himself to his Director's vision. However, Srini has the overambitious vision, he doesn't have the writing or directorial skills required to pull it off. Once again the incoherent screenplay plays the spoilsport. The attempt is to give a non-linear narrative with constant jumping back in the timeline but the amateurish writing doesn't help Srini's cause and the disappointing dialogues too bring down the film. Every time Srini strikes gold with Shivanna and proper fan service, the scene jumps back to a dull flashback which barely match the excitement.

The main plot is as simple as one expects, a revenge story. The screenplay demands for the logic to be thrown out. But for the magic to happen, having Shivanna as your only magic trick isn't enough. Despite the short runtime, the scenes do lag. On paper, the scenes might have felt to be thrilling but the execution is so haphazard followed by the abrupt editing, multiple times the scene transition just feels like continuity errors. The hyped the final act too loses it's impact and even here, couple of scenes work really well to please the fans but considering the overall content, it is sadly a hugely missed opportunity.
