Kill Dil

Sometimes, when you feel pressure to do something new and try to make something unusual, there would be chances of wrong landing. It happened here. Somehow, it is overcooked. Story is very simple and routine, so making it new, makers stuffed it with unjustified incidents and old twists and turns. Screenplay does not offer anything new. Like, for showing hero good nature to girl he feeds poor kids in Dhaba, is so many times told. Hats off to dialogues. They are just brilliant and make any normal scene interesting. Chemistry between both male lead is impressive but it lacks in most of the love scenes. I was happy in first half but when it came to interval, I was sensing that second half may have been least interesting and alias it happened. Climax came abruptly and without any justification. There is not a single police investigation of all the murders but suddenly they shown in a single scene!!? Why!? I had already accepted that there is no law and order at all but this small scene broke all my assumptions. Performance wise Ali Zafer is impressive. His looks and expressions match very well. Ranveer Singh is good but not in emotional scenes at all. You will smile while watching him cry. Govinda is balanced. Parineeti Chopda is fine. Music by Shankar-Ehsan-Loy is good. The track " Sajde kiya re" is melodious.

I'm surprised by the many average reviews this film is getting, in part because: 1. although not strictly a comedy, it's funnier than many other Bollywood films this year 2. has at least three killer music tracks 3. all four leads more than deliver in their respective roles 4. it features the return of Govinda (and it's a great part) 5. Ali Zafar has finally proved (as he did in Tere Bin Laden before being typecast) that there's more to him that formulaic rom-coms 6. it doesn't rely on endless and pointless stunts to form the narrative as many recent blockbusters have

Sure it's not perfect, the story has a familiarity to it (but what film doesn't these days?) and there are a couple of cringe-worthy moments; but I'd rather watch Kill Dil over again than many of the other half-baked 'blockbuster' efforts clocking up the rupee signs over the last 12 months.

Do yourself a favour, ignore the reviews and go check it out for yourself- you might be pleasantly surprised.

'Kill Dil' Directed by Shaad Ali has a brisk first-hour, but a bland & boring second, which acts as a deterrent. The Film is partly entertaining, partly boring!

'Kill Dil' Synopsis: Two killers – Tutu (Ali Zafar) and Dev (Ranveer Singh) were nurtured by Bhaiyaji (Govinda) who trained them to be sharp shooters. Things take an unexpected turn when Dev falls in love with Disha (Parineeti Chopra) and decides to leave his violent life.

'Kill Dil' begins on an awesome note & the bromance between its protagonists works big time. Its the romantic-track, that gets tedious in the latter hour. Even the climax looked hurried & unconvincing. Also, the excessive usage of songs in its first & second-hour, only drag the film pointlessly.

The Screenplay isn't without merit, but it loses steam in the second-hour. A stronger second-hour was most certainly needed! The dialogue, however, are clever. Shaad Ali's Direction is average. Cinematography & Editing are superbly done. Music by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy is melodious, but the songs pop-up unnecessarily in the narrative.

Performance-Wise: Ranveer Singh is in terrific form, yet again! The talented actor enacts the love-struck young-blood with enviable energy & conviction. Ali Zafar supports Ranveer, wonderfully. Parineeti Chopra looks gorgeous & delivers a fair performance. Govinda springs a pleasant surprise. He nails it as the villain. Among Others, Alok Nath is restrained in a cameo.

On the whole, 'Kill Dil' is strictly a watchable fare, that's bogged down by a half-baked Screenplay.

90's masala popcorn films are back thanks to movies like Wanted , Dabangg , Rowdy Rathore. Unfortunate part is that movies are getting repeated and outdone and the essence of the flavor is dying. Kill Dil tries hard to entertain you but falls flat on the face.

Kill Dill tells the story of two orphans raised by a godfather who turns out to be hit-men. Things go wrong after one of them falls in love with a girl and leaves the gang to lead a peaceful and normal life away from guns and violence.

From the director of Bunty aur Babli and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, not much was expected from Shaad Ali. The lousy direction , insensible screenplay and terrible story gives you a headache which you never asked especially from stars like Parineeti Chopra, Renveer Singh and Govinda. There is no plot here and frequent insertion of songs just spoils the entire mood of the film. Music is a complete letdown. Art direction and cinematography is decent. Ranveer Singh and Parineeti Chopra disappoints big time. For the first time in their career , he does not do justice to his role. The veteran Govinda is wasted.

Overall, Kill Dil is loud, lousy and unconvincing. Not recommended. 1/5

It has crime that doesn't make any sense. The actors are not sure what they are doing. The lead actress is completely clueless although being beauty with brain. It is a nonsensical crime drama which doesn't have any story at all and the climax is horrible. No entertainment whatsoever in the entire movie. It is one of the worst movies I watched in theatres.
