Bloody Daddy

Bloody daddy builds up great initially,but falls badly due to low grade action sequences and slow paced mid part of the movie.

Direction, performance of cast are good, especially background score is great,but the action sequences did NOT match up to the character's intensity. Dont expect it to be an action combat like John wick,u'll be disappointed. Shahid Kapoor acted well n kudos to Ronit Roy n Sanjay Kapoor,they did a great job too.

Diana penty was ok and Rajeev Khandelwal is really an underated artist,he played his character really well.

All in all its a one time watch which is good or ok in every aspect except its boring action sequences with over exaggerated slow motion shots.

Bloody daddy is an action drama thriller film directed by ali abbas zafar.

Shahid kapoor is just decent. We have seen much better performances from him honestly. It looked like he was in kabir singh mode. Ronit roy and sanjay kapoor were able to make us chuckle a bit with their comic timing. Rajeev khandelwal, too is decent. Diana penty is strictly average. There is no standout performance in this film.

The writing of this film suffers a lot due to inconsistency in its pace. The first half, where the movie takes much time for the build up, feels stretched. In the second half, the well choreographed action, which is too less, is just only slightly better than the first. The stakes never get high, the matter never gets serious.

What saves the film is its style and action. The action suits shahid, the hand to hand combat between shahid and rajeev, the firegun, the fight with the baseball bat all do the job. The cinematography during the action sequences, also assist the action. The background score uses rap as an essential tool to style up the scenes, which works in its favour. The certain pop culture references about covid, etc also bring in some humour. Otherwise the camerwork is pretty mundane.

The film is devoid of any major emotion. It works on the surface level, but an emotional connect is necessary to root for the primary characters. The father son duo never come as serious and genuine, mainly due to the writing and also the one tine performance. As a result, we never really can fathom why is shahid taking so many risks for his son. The equation does not translate on screen.

The screenplay is pacy and fast, there is no sense of calmness or serenity in the screenplay. It may entertain you, but will never engage you. I rate it 7 out of 10.

As a well wisher of Shahid, it pains me to see and state that this was such a massive disappointment!

Bloody Daddy's teaser and trailer led me to believe that it would be an action-packed, rugged, and stylish crime drama. I was unaware that there would be only twenty five minutes worth of stunts and choreography, while the remainder of the movie is a puerile attempt at developing a revenge plot that tends to revolve around an abduction and subsequent rescue operation.

The first half is unbelievably bad; the drama is unpersuasive, the dynamics don't seem to work, and the performances failed to convince me of the actual gravity of the situation. The second half of the film becomes mildly interesting, the pace quickens, and the characters get more and more desperate.

This sudden turn of events increased the risk factor, which led to some impressive hand-to-hand fight sequences, but the underlying drama failed to have a positive influence. And I would like to place the blame for this failure on the editing and the incredibly poor dialogue writing. If truth be told, I didn't expect such inferiority from someone like Ali Abbas Zafar.

P. S. Shahid looks great while performing action, and I believe that, with better scripts and stories, he could become a viable action hero - not the massy type, but the classy one.

A very worthy film to lead the OTT most streamed movies in India at the number 1 spot , I had the pleasure of being able to see Bloody Daddy and Trial Period at their worldwide digital premieres for free at JioCinema thanks to their strategy of giving us such good content for absolutely no cost and registration. Bloody Daddy is a very good action thriller that does not bore you for even a moment and contains some interesting twists and an engaging screenplay and is led by some great acting performances from everyone involved. Shahid Kapoor does a wonderful job as the lead character, Diana Penty makes for an interesting honest woman cop, Rajeev Khandelwal puts in a stellar acting performance in his role as a police officer too and Ronit Roy makes for an interesting, captivating antagonist. The fight scenes are realistic and are not over the top in the slightest , the protagonist is not shown as an undefeatable superhuman but fights in a very realistic fashion , employing a good use of the surroundings and objects in the environment. The plot does a decent job of showing the extents a father can and will go to for his son and all in all this is an interesting watch , especially for free. My only major problem with this film is that some of the fight scenes could be grander, especially the climax fight scene as the trailer promised a bit more which we could have hoped to see. Since the movie is a remake of a french movie, I will deduct another point as it is not an original movie.

"Bloody Daddy," available on Jio Cinema, is a nice movie with an intriguing plot and a talented ensemble cast, featuring Shahid Kapoor, Ronit Roy, Rajeev Khandelwal, and Diana Penty. The film revolves around a drug deal, entangling a group of cops determined to thwart it. Amidst the involvement of affluent youngsters, chaos ensues, leading to unforeseen consequences. Shahid Kapoor's portrayal of a devoted cop and a caring father is truly commendable, adding depth and emotion to the narrative.

The movie excels in its storytelling, keeping the audience engaged, particularly in the first half. However, the second half loses some momentum, as certain twists become predictable. Nonetheless, Shahid Kapoor and Ronit Roy deliver stellar performances, carrying the movie with their strong acting skills. The rest of the cast also does a commendable job.

The background score complements the movie well, although it could have been elevated to match the intensity of the plot. Despite this, the film maintains a good pace, ensuring viewers remain hooked till the end with its numerous twists and turns. The gripping story, sprinkled with emotional moments, notably Shahid's touching bond with his son, adds another layer of depth to the narrative.

Overall, "Bloody Daddy" is a satisfying choice for a Saturday night binge-watch. It offers a compelling and absorbing cinematic experience, making it a must-watch for fans of the thriller genre. I rate it 7 out of 10, as it concludes well, but a slightly stronger ending could have enhanced the overall impact. Regardless, it remains an engaging movie that will leave audiences entertained and invested throughout its runtime.
