The action seems to bemissing somewhere in the entire film. Even the dialoq presentation seems to be some what kiddish if you compare the same in other movies of the same actors u may be laughing. The story seems to be lost & the director is trying to mold it durring the entire cast. Seems soemone wants to create a movie capturing the under water world or market the place.
The only thing good was the locations but that can be better seen in NGC & discovery so instead of watching this movie & wasting ur time / money better watch something else. If insterested in marine world better watch NGC / Animal planet / discovery showing the under water world.
Said to be over Rs. 100 crore in budget, Blue doesn’t justify the mega budget it has been allotted and first timer director Anthony D’Souza gets it all wrong mistaking style and extra coolness quotient for substance
A really interesting premise shot beautifully but messed big time by unimaginative writing and lackluster direction is what Blue shall always be remembered as. The setting is different no doubt, but where are the requisite twists and turns and pace which are a must for this genre of films? The so called major twist that comes out in the end can be guessed quiet earlier in the first half itself. Also, almost the entire first half moves around with zero grip on the audience with more than enough time wasted on character establishment. The much hyped shark sequences are a big let down what with barring the opening sequence of few minutes(where believe it or not Akshay and Dutt literally ride a shark) there is not a single scene where the sharks are a threat and get you on the edge of your seat. The bike chase sequences have been shot very well though. The underwater sequences have been superbly lit up and one needs to salute the team of cameramen involved for it. The climax is extremely ‘thanda’ and derives unintentional laughter as well. Songs don’t really fit in well and the Kylie Minogue starring Chiggy Wiggy number doesn’t really work on screen.
The media seems to be paid well to market this movie not sure if they getting free tickets to enjoy this under water / as the free tickets to this movie would be a torcher.
