everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
This film has a very Hitchcock feel to it and delivers much of the same amount of suspense as the master himself. Though the 'mystery' of the murder is solved in the title, the story is more about a man's emotional turmoil over having made a grave mistake and a social commentary on fears of injustice.I found it interesting that the protagonist's predicament with his murdered wife was closely parallel to the investigator's own relationship with *his* wife. In fact, on further inspection, one can see that all of the relationships in this film are twisted or uneven, seemingly happy and normal on the surface only to have undercurrents of stress and underlying mistrust.Casting was incredible, the acting perfection. The theme is very dark and is not typical of your usual Bollywood film, and for this alone it is worth watching. A very suspenseful, thought- provoking film.
This movie is definitely not what the previous summary made it out to be. Trust me. And if you don't just see the movie and than I know you will trust for the rest of your life. I know Anil Kapoor's acting is far better than most in Bollyhood but this movie was purely made on the fact that the title of the movie would appeal to the mainstream Indian movie goers. But I am sorry to say, actually, why should I be sorry, I did nothing wrong. This movie's plot is not original at all. And when Ms Sen puts her relationship with her soon to be husband on the line and tells lies to the police to save her boss, Anil Kapoor, who would think something like this can actually occur in real life. But anyway this movie was poorly done and put together. This goes to the director and the editing crew but the person to blame is probably the producers who wanted to sell the title, My Wife's Murder, that they put out garbage like this for the whole world to see. Well, can't really blame these producers when the rest of the bollywood producers are also doing the same except a few who I will list later. My whole reason for writing this response was because i read the previous one and I completely disagreed with it and I wanted to warn people it would probably be a mistake seeing the movie. And the list of producers and Directors that are on my A list are as Follows: Mani Ratnam, in many different languages has proved that he is what Stanly Kubrick was for the Hollywood cinema. try to get a hold of his old stuff like Mouna Ragam with Ravethy. It also deals with husband and wife issues (1985) also get Dilse if you have not yet. Best movie ever. Nothing is more realistic than that. and the music A R rhaman provides are like tunes from haven that has been sent by god as a gift to all music lovers. This years movies of the year: Sarkar Kya Kool Hai Hum Menai Pyar Kyu Kya No Entry Salam Nameste
OK, it was different from the regular crap Bollywood produces so often. But the problem is, I've been seeing so many crime-based programs on television these days that this one appears pale and stale as compared to those. In fact any randomly chosen crime-file appears to be more interesting than this one.+ Acting. Good. Especially Anil Kapoor, He has done a good job playing the role of a unhappy husband, who accidentally kills his wife, and then tries eliminating all proofs of her murder. The movie is bearable only because of him. Boman Irani is impressive, and is able to keep the interest alive in a otherwise monotonous plot. Rest of the cast is quite poor, even Suchitra Krishnamurti appeared to be putting much more effort than required playing a irritating and suspicious wife.+ Camera-work. OK. Manages to capture the tension between the characters, and the uncomfortable environment. Also some night shots are really well taken.+ Sound Effects. Good. But then even 'Naina' had great sound effects.= Direction. Average. The start is good, and appears to be gripping, at least for the first half. However thereafter the director has completely lost his control over the flow, and the climax? just don't talk about it. There are numerous loopholes that you can observe. The hero runs away in a jeep someone has left on the road. Now who the hell leaves a vehicle with the ignition key keyed in. Anyways that happens very so often in bollywood (and even in Hollywood ) movies. During the chase scene, it is so evident that there is no more than 5 second time difference between the two vehicles; but when the jeep hits a rock and rolls over, the hero gets a full two minutes of escape time. What were the policemen doing for that much time? buying vegetables??Thrill. Little. And that mostly is the fault of the poor and monotonous second half, where the hero tries hiding the facts and the policeman is determined to uncover every single proof.Script. Too predictable. No dramatic elements. The moment, the guy tells his secretary about the murder, you know what way the things are going to happen. And then on, there is not even a single incident that you have not known in advance.I know there are people who say, "ok but thats the way it happens in real life. It was close to realty." Fine; but then whats the entire point of my watching a movie? Why shouldn't I choose a 11'o clock crime-scene program on television instead of spending money on this movie? Afterall I get to see exactly the same thing there, free of cost.Good movies are meant to be watched a thousand times and not just once; and I really can't rate a movie high, if it has nothing left for a second viewing. This one is definitely not a match for those.If all you are going to do is, to pick a crime investigation report and make a movie out of it, then all I can say is : "sorry! you can't get a better rating from me."
Director Jijy Philip impresses with his debut thriller. People who were expecting a suspense film would be disappointed. The makers from the start said that the film goes into Ravi's mind. It's more psychological then thrilling. It's great to see that movies like these are being made these days. No outdoor shootings, no actors dancing around trees, just simply good film-making and performances. Anil Kapoor is beyond great. He lives Ravi, he breathes Ravi. His facial expressions are amongst the best in Bollywood (Amitabh is good at this too). But this role was made for Anil and only Anil. The climax scene you get to see how great of an actor Anil is. He just shines in the climax, that will certainly bring tears in your eyes. The situation this character was in is just amazing, and that is due to the great screenplay and storyline. Editing and cinematography are ace, while background score is praise-worthy. Suchitra in her short role leaves an impact, while Nandana Sen lives up to her character. Boman shines in his well-written role. The film is gripping throughout, but it's the climax that should be talked about over and over again. I watched the climax scene about 5 times, I just can't get enough of Anil's performance. I would rate this as his second best performance in his career. Eeshwar being first, My Wife's Murder being second, and Pukar being third. Two people who deserve awards are Jijy Philip and Anil Kapoor, if these two go empty handed this year it would be really sad.
