Watch Kidnap For Free

Strong and Moving!

A Masterpiece!

Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Sanjay Gadhvi after making Tere Liye got another chance with Yashraj films with the moderate success of MYKSH which was a remake of My Best Friend's Wedding, but he got success after directing Dhoom and Dhoom 2 and then he left Yashraj and made Kidnap. The film was in news as it was Imran Khan's second film after JTYJN and Sanjay's comeback film after his jail term in 2007. The film is a comedy of errors, gone all wrong. To Start with:The story s so stupid it makes you cringe. The ease at which Imran kidnaps and the cat and mouse game is very childish, The film is filled with stupidity like Imran kidnapping Minisha underwater by making her unconscious when she has hardly worn anything but reaches the place fully clothed, Also the wardrobe changes by Minisha are hard to digest, the scene that takes the cake is Minisha wants a bath so Imran our darling kidnapper takes her to a sea and there is a song There are lot more, like Sanjay conveniently getting a bike to reach a train, Also the shootout at the disco towards the climax and climax.Direction is bad Music is bad, too many songs spoil the showSanjay Dutt looks jaded and disinterested, plus his weight put on makes him look older and bored Imran Khan is hilarious, he doesn't look a kidnapper, also his accent is a put off for the role. Minisha Lamba hardly looks 16 and is okay, Vidya is a miscast as Sanju's wife and Minisha's mom, Reema Lagoo is as usual Rahul Dev has a brief role rest are okay.

This is the film which i expected to be good while watching the promos. Imran Khan looked good in the promos...So i was expecting a stylish thriller but it turned out to be a Damp Squib. This film can be a good lessons to actors like Imran Khan and other actors who sign movies in the love for their roles narrated in the film and forget about the script. This is a really awful predictable thriller.Coming to performances, everyone is mediocre except Imran Khan who shines as the kidnapper, although he tends to go weak in his acting several times especially When He confronts Sanjay Dutt in the end, You feel the actor needs acting lessons. Minisha Lamba is an actress who has given respectable performances in her past movies. But here she is terrible. She opted for cleavage and skin show and got nothing from it. Vidya Malavade is OK but you feel like laughing when you come to know she is playing Minisha's mother. Sanjay Dutt is passable. His age is overpowering him, The thing which always knocks my head, I would like to ask the scriptwriter, they never wanted a romantic angle in this movie right? then why they made the kidnapper having a heart of gold and showing a young lady who is showing so much cleavage and doesn't romance. Does it make any sense? A romantic angle could have saved this movie. On the Whole, Don't waste your time for this one...this is one more example of a good idea turned horribly wrong.

Expectations are bound to run high especially when you deliver two mega grossers back-to-back ie. Dhoom and D2. And Sanjay Gadhvi is indeed accountable for the missing goods.Sanjay Dutt:: His Conviction was missing and it was apparent. Vidya Malvade:: For starters, I "never" knew she was the "Chak De" girl. Fitted well as independent & opinionated Mrs. Sanjay Dutt. But as Mum to Minisha - nay!! Minisha Lamba:: Try and try harder until you succeed. Well this time around it was trying with the clothes I guess. Skimpy albeit.Imran Khan:: It was written in bold that he was trying extremely hard to put up an intense emotion in the name of acting. Suggest he should stick doing chocolaty-boy roles and then make a natural progression towards parallel oriented performance. Uncle, where art thou?At certain places, the movie carries a look which seems to be inspired by Sanjay F Gupta. Background score is loud. Songs are passable and lyrics are crappy.The plot simply doesn't connect. And the screenplay seems to be loaded with speed-breakers. Extremely poor in writing department (read that cinematic liberties!).

A very weak beginning. Minnisha Lamba can NOT dance and neither can she look sexy. Imran Khan needs to work on his expression and STOP speaking like Hrithik Roshan. He looked good. Vidya was plain bad. Her duologue delivery was horrible, she managed to look pretty. Sanjay Dutt was the best thing. He managed to hold some expression, though even he was stiff, expressionless and frankly, bored. The songs (ALL OF THEM) were not needed. In fact, I fastforwaded a song and thank goodness I did. The story had potential: A young man, named Kabir, has kidnapped Sonia, daughter of a trillionare, Vikrant Raina. Vikrant and his wife (whose name isn't mentioned anywhere...) had a horrible divorce some 8 years ago, when Sonia was 10. Mrs. I-don't-have-a-name seemed to hate Mr. Raina a lot. Yet, in the end, she and Mr Raina got together again. Cheers! Why can't Indians let movies remain be a bit more REALISTIC!? Fast forward to when Sonia is kidnapped. Kabir leads Raina thorough a couple of stunts, all of them ending with a clue. During all this, Raina even meets his daughter once, and wow, what a scene it was! Raina: *sees gagged, tied daughter who is struggling with the ropes* How are you? Sonia: mmmmhhhhmmmm Raina: Yes, your mother misses you. She is very tense. Sonia: mmmmmmhhhmmmmm Raina: *blushes* I look good? Thanks, you do too. Sonia: Mm. Brilliant? The movie was very interesting in places. The climax was interesting, won't spoil it for you, though I strongly recommend that you wait for the DVD. The story wanted to teach something, I am not sure it will. Overall, a much better try than Dhoom 2 but could have been a LOT better. The movie seemed to lose its way sometimes and then it would insert a stupid song. Could be so much better.5/10
