Lost

Just not saying this because of I am a Yami Gautam Fan. And I really don't understand films how these Reviewers does. But LOST is a good movie. Yes sometime you will fill bored , doesn't have the soul of KAHANI but now a days the kind of Bollywood movies is being made, in that standard this will stand out as a good film.

It could have been a great thriller if the ending was cleverly planned.

It does get lost into finding actually what it wants. It was going into the right direction but got lost in between. Here Vidhi is just going to people and just asking some bunch of questions. But at the end just one person gave away what actually happened to Ishaan. I mean really.

Now about performances. In that case you won't be able to find anyone who isn't suitable for their role. Yami as Vidhi is simply fantastic. You will actually travel with Vidhi around Kolkata. Vidhi is fearless, always speaks her mind, yet she is empathetic, emotional. In one scene she is sitting with Ishaan's sister and told her to eat a cake, after that she looks at her, you will see Vidhi's empathy through Yami,s eyes, That's how good she is. Rahul Khanna, Pankaj Kapoor, Pia everyone is apt to their role.

What could have been 45 mins short film is stretched for 2 hours. Story is just ok, nothing extraordinary. Many story points dont have much logic. As far as performances are concerned, Yami Gautam is fine not the best, Pankaj Kapoor is legend anyways so he wont disappoint, Rahul khanna is ok, other actors are also just fine. There is one interview in last 40 mins, even if you start watching from there, you will understand all the story till that point. Critics are giving unnecessary high reviews to this film. They made the film like something very artistic and award winning, that effort is visible, directors do this now a days, when they have no substance, they try to make it artistic.

This is one of those movies that keep you glued to the screen till the end. Although you could guess what could happen, but it proves you wrong every single time. This movie will not pump up your adrenaline nor it has any scene that would make you jump off your seat. The director has kept the thrill under pressure and he releases it slowly one wrap at a time till the end of the movie. Moreover, the situations and conditions shown are very relatable and you could feel the mental anxiety an investigative reporter faces 24x7 while doing his/her job. At one point, one can easily feel as if an investigative journalist is no less than an undercover spy or cop but without any protection!

I loved the character building, story flow and how the protagonist steered clear her way. Yami Gautam is at her best, as usual along with the supporting star cast. My take: One should at least watch it once rather than falling for the propaganda machinery.

Sameer lodaya.

The movie is well balanced between the fact and assumption

The movie has a general content of a missing boy in which a politician is involved..yami as a criminal reporter tries to join the dots and investigates about the missing boy

The making is very good with yami again played a very strong character after her thrilling movie A THURSDAY though she looked a little soft but managed very well as good support by pankajji, Rahul as usual looks very fresh and young also played a smart politician...some scenes were really very strong in dialogues deliveries

The core part of the movie is the climax which is very good and will ask you what is right and wrong

Let's see how other movies performs as there are many releases this weekend.

Lost is a political thriller drama which makes you question about a lot of society problems and of course the government politics. Vidhi a journalist whose aim is to cover and know the story of a lost guy who's suddenly been missing with no reason. Movie sets it's tone from start gets gripping every minute and start questioning your mind with different situations and aspects of lots of political issues. But can a simple journalist make the questioning to the high sector like minister and big political name of India that still hard to believe. Story & Direction is on point but movie is very slow paced and sometimes it gets you bored because each character takes it's time rather to go on a fast note because story isn't unique or different as we've seen previous films based on this just had different perspectives. For ex. KAHAANI is the prime example of a thriller and this film will give you vibe of Kahaani film. YAMI GAUTAM shines in the whole movie and her performance is the only highlights of the film rest of the cast is good but could've been better. Screenplay could've been more tight as it is very slow paced with a slow story. It's an interesting story to follow but it's not everyone's cup of tea.....
