Noor

If you are just looking for something mind-numbing then this is ok. An alcoholic columnist, full of self-pity wants to become a real journalist, yet, has no talent for it. Add to that Karan Gill's dead-pan acting skills and heavy accent and the movie becomes even more boring! London scenes are so stupidly enforced, just to show some chemistry between love-birds when Sonakshi takes off in the middle of a crisis without requiring a visa.

Overall it's rather pretentious, making it look like an issue-based movie, yet, that particular topic is completely overcast with useless emotions.

The only good thing in the whole movie (despite the minimum screen time) is the maid Malti.

Sweet Girl --- Sonakshi is a sweet Girl... not only sweet, cute also. In this movie you can see her cuteness on a big screen. Lovely girl... ohh coming back to movie-- Lover of romantic and crazy movies will really like this movie. but you also find Sonakshi doing action in this movie so girl doing action is also an interesting part of this movie.

Love you SOnakshi

My sisters dragged me to watch this movie. Needless to say, this movie is extremely painful. It's a pathetic attempt at being a movie and jumbles between genres with over the top dialogues that fall flat every time.

It starts off with narration. And within the first 10 minutes, the lead/narrator admits that she has a habit of speaking/talking a lot. And as a matter of fact. SHE DOES. Her painful expositions and talks to herself as an attempt to narrate is annoying at best, and fever- inducing at worst. She keeps it up for a good half an hour before pausing to take breaks. Guess she was tired of all the talking.

The light-hearted jokes that are meant to amuse make you roll your eyes. You do get a few smiles here and there and that's it.

She and her friends bask in a glory of binge drinking at seemingly expensive clubs and bars more than a few times. She owns an iPhone (seemingly the latest model around the time the movie was shot) and a MacBook (possibly Air?) And her dad owns a fat cat. Still, she manages to pity herself for being "poor".

She keeps putting herself down and has an extremely low image of herself. Right from the start. And considers herself to be "FAT", even though every time she weighs herself it comes out to be 65 KGs, which, according to me, is NOWHERE near fat. I mean, any lesser pounds, and on her body, she'd look malnourished/underweight. But for some reason, the writers never failed to make note of her "fat" body for the entire duration of the movie.

Despite having a low opinion of herself throughout the movie, her best friend seems to be completely sure of the fact that she is not being herself when she puts herself down for what she did and feels guilty for the same (I'm not going to "spoil" it) Even the characters are confused about themselves and each other. How brilliant.

Put in a little bit of romance, after the supposed comedy drama bits, and you've got a love story. Then there's the heartbreaks, and the "oh so unexpected, and tragic" betrayals, and a big fat case of corruption and the movie reaches the interval.

Yes, it tumbles through genres and stumbles on its way to the mid- point. It was the second day of the release of this crap fest, and only 10-20 percent of the people showed up to watch it. After the interval, the number reduced to less than half the original.

I stayed throughout, and kept blabbing various sarcasms and witty one- liners to myself and one of my sisters to try to make it bearable. It really helped. It's what I do when I'm forced to sit with my mother when she is watching any daytime soap. And honestly, it DOES help.

My favorite part was when the movie ended, because that meant I could stop yawning and ACTUALLY go home and sleep on a proper bed.

My rating? 2/10

The only point I'm giving is for the attempt, because COME ON, even if it's a crap fest, people worked to make this. And anyway, some of the shots were REALLY beautiful. So cinematography was good, I must say.

(I always look for silver linings!)

So, my advice? AVOID THIS ONE AT ALL COSTS. This is the kind of a flick you'll regret watching even if you're​ being paid to do so.

This film is based on a book. It had got adapted in very amateurish way. Lots of voice over with boring inner monologues are used for establishing main female protagonist. It is typical way of a book to help readers to visualize character and surroundings. Geek type main lead then her ultra modern female friend who is just for an item song, single parent father, a cat, a maid and her sick brother, all sound good for novel but for film!!? Films need visual first then words. Establishment of main lead consumes 40 minutes of screen time of hardly two hours film. Just before interval you come to know that there is illegal kidney racket involvement too. This issue is very stale and this film approaches this issue in primitive way. Love scenes are first rate irritating. They misused a love song and partially a sad song for this!? A monologue about Mumbai in second half is mile stone of boring dialogues. Performance wise Sonakshi Sinha as Noor is very good. Her expressions are only relief. Kanan Gill as Saad is very irritating and they have given him long love track with main female lead. His expressions, looks and dialogue delivery make love scenes unbearable. Casting is notably bad.

Noor is Sonakshi Sinha's most confident movie till date. Her character Noor Roy Chaudhary is believable as an irresponsible journalist who messes up her first big chance of foraying into 'real journalism' only to make the most of her second one. The first-person narration does get to you at times. Actors Kanan Gill and Manish Chaudhary provide great support to Noor. Director Sunhil Sippy knows his city well and he makes the most of it by letting his camera  more around freely. The writing is laidback but funny and so is the screenplay which takes ample time to unravel. You feel as if you have seen everything but nothing. Overall, a nice movie with some really fine performances.
