Snowman

I watched the trailer for this movie thinking it looked so creative and cool. And my biggest mistake was buying the ticket to go watch it because it absolutely sucked and I wish I saved the money and my sanity by not watching it. First off I have to say, no hate to any of the actors especially Neeru Bajwa and Rana Ranbir they are phenomenal actors and definitely did not deserve to take part in the garbage writing that was this movie. Anyways, this movie was the worst I have seen this year. The plot had SO much potential but the execution was terrible. The way that it had the same music playing the entire movie, and different shots every 5 seconds like let the godamn scene play out!! I have way more to rant about but if you really are curious and want to check the movie out just wait for it to come out so you can watch it at home and wont have to waste your money on the theatre.

I went into this movie blind and I'm hesitant to even call it a movie.

Firstly the good) Concept is okay at BEST, and they chose a beautiful place to film the movie. It looks great. Some drone shots are well done, and credits song was fine. Plus Rana Ranbir the only actual actor in this mess cleans up as much as he can with what he's given.

The Bad) ALOT As others say it's 10% movie 90% songs. On top of that while the songs are playing the visual is just the actors/actresses just staring into the distance looking "cool". Music is repetitive as well with some songs literally translating to "What is happening" over and over again. Of course the "snowman" over and over again.

Acting is also incredibly weak. Never understood the reason of forcing a Punjabi character to speak English and vice versa. Let them speak in a language they're comfortable with over broken English/Punjabi. Ruins scenes. As well line delivery is so flat at times it's sad. You know a intense movie is bad when I'm laughing at line deliveries and acting choices. As said before Rana Ranbir is a shining star in the movie but is bogged down by the writing.

Writing needed honestly like 1-2 months of just refinement. Everything feels so forced as "this happened because it had to happen". Sometimes characters will act out of character just to suit the "story". It's odd to say the least. Ontop of that towards the ends 2-3 characters are added for no reason? It's again forced to suit the "shock" ending. Also 1 hour 20 mins run time? That's it? Factoring in all the songs + credits it's AT MAX 40 mins of actually move

Editing is jarring. Any tense scenes are ruined by worthless cuts to another plot.

Ending is laughably bad like actually I was laughing at how dumb it was. Any sensible plot/motive is thrown out the window for a "cool twist". Also a "To be continued" with quite literally nothing to go off is the worst thing ever.

TLDR: Don't waste your money on this movie a 1 hour bore fest. The only movie where the whole theatre was talking towards the end out of boredom. I feel bad as it's a smaller cast and budget but some stuff is inexcusably bad. I gave it a star for Rana Ranbir and the filming location. Hopefully we won't see a Snowman 2.

After watching the best Punjabi movie ever made in 'The legend of Maula Jatt' I had the unfortunate experience of watching one of the worst in 'Snowman' with in a couple of months time.

There's a song in the movie which goes by 'eh ki ho reha hai' and me and my wife were literally looking at each other and thinking the same about the movie.

The best part was that it was 2hrs long and not 2:30 or 3:00hrs or else this movie might have become the first Punjabi movie where we would have left the cinema mid way.

Not even a talented actor like Rana Ranbir could save it.

Punjabi audience is ready to accept movies made on different concepts other than the comedy movies but Punjabi cinema need talented people to produce/direct the same as well.

I had such high expectations from this movie! This was the first time punjabi cinema tried to do something different. The story seems like a two year old child wrote it. The only good actor was Rana Ranbir which was expected given his experience. Neeru was good as well. All other newbie actors were a pain to watch. Some actors were laughing during serious scenes. Horrible dialog delivery. Overall, such a disappointment. Hopefully they do humanity some justice and don't make a second part because literally no one will come watch it. The ending did not make sense...there was a lot going on and not enough explanation.

40% is the movie and 60% is just title track playing in the background. Average acting and average dialogue delivery. I though it would change punjabi cinema but hell no.

The only character that is good is the just Snowman itself. Everything else seem pushed to complete movie.

Just to increase the length of the movie, the title track is being played in the whole movie with the slow mo.

I had great expectations from this movie.

Rana Ranbir is a good actor and writer and the reason I went to watch the first show of the movie.

Direction could be better also if they get good actors. May be then this movie will get good reviews.
