Freddy

Freddy is a successful dentist looking for the right girl to settle down and have a family with. Freddy has a problem though. His best and seemingly only friend is his turtle, Hardy, and he's shy, awkward and lacks the confidence to feel comfortable around women. His attempts at dating are huge failures but he hopes to find his soulmate. When he meets a beautiful married woman, begins seeing her as a patient and begins to stalk her. His stalking pays off when she agrees to and starts seeing him on a regular basis. He allows himself to fall for her but he's devastated to learn her marriage is abusive. He begins to pursue her with more vigor and as they both fall in love, they must find a way to overcome the obstacle that is her husband. Things take a sinister turn and a game of cat and mouse begins.

I enjoyed this. It was very well acted and the story brings about a great sense of compassion for Freddy's situation. It had a few predictable moments but it was a well thought out movie and one must give credit where credit is due. This gets a solid recommendation from me and although it's not full of action or suspense, I'd still suggest it for people who enjoy a slow thriller.

Kartik Aryan's performance is likely his best to date. SRK owned a bazigar. Freddy belongs to Kartik. That being said, Freddy is nothing like a typical blockbuster film. The plot of this compelling film is well-developed. A few imperfections exist, but they are mostly insignificant. Pooja Bedi's daughter has undergone some change. They've all performed admirably, but Kartik really sticks out. There are no clichés, and you get a sense of curiosity about what will happen next. The conclusion is really excellent. Not the typical ones from movies. I urge everyone to watch and enjoy the movie of kartik.

The movie could have been half as long as it is and been a bit better. So many stretched scenes it got boring!

If this is what people in India are rating high then it's a shame ! Indians need to raise their expectations higher so they don't get fed this crap repeatedly!

Karthik Aryan's acting is a below average actor. Is there such a dearth of good Indian actors that below average like Krthik Aryan are being hailed a hero?!! And I am no fan of the Khans or Kapoors or Kumars either! I wish we had the era back of Devanand ... Jewel Thief was a true thriller. This movie is a blot on thrillers.

No other actor in this movie is even worth noting or wasting any words on in my review!

As another user said, maybe they wasted all their money on Karthik Aryan and had none left for Story or Direction! Shame on Bollywood cinema. They seriously need to up their game.

Thank god bollywood directors are experimenting with such new movies. Very well directed, acted and very good cinematography.

Plot is strong, can ignore some small details. But overall a very interesting movie. Worth watching more than once.

After watching similar stupid movies like Race 3, Dabang Franchise, Singham Franchise and other over the top action movies, bollywood should try such movies even with big stars.

The big stars of bollywood should make such movies with strong plot and intelligent direction. They waste huge budgets on stupid movies, which may earn some money early but will be lost in dust of time.

Such movies will be added to cult list and will be watched again and again even by new generations in future.

This is probably the best performance of Kartik Aryan to date. SRK had bazigar. Kartik has Freddy. Only that Freddy is nothing like a regular commercial movie. This movie is gripping and storyline is tight. There are some flaws but ignorable for the most part. Pooja Bedis daughter has evolved a bit. All have acted well but Kartik does stand out. It doesn't have cliches and you feel like you want to know what is coming next. Ending is quite good as well. Not your conventional movie ones. I can only say in the end that you have to watch it to believe it. You won't regret it at all. This actor is the next superstar.
