Crakk: Jeetega... Toh Jiyegaa

Passey Reviews

'Crakk Jeetega... Toh Jiyegaa'- yes that's the complete name of the film, which sounds as offbeat and weird as the film itself. Some might say I was 'Crakk' enough to go watch it in the theatre!

The movie kicks off with Vidyut Jammwal expressing gratitude to his "Jammwalions" (fans) but, unfortunately, the film doesn't offer much to keep that support intact.

It lacks in every aspect and there's nothing extraordinary to offer- from the acting, storyline, screenplay to setting, cinematography, & background score. The music (apart from Vishal Mishra's Jeena Haraam) is forgettable, and even the director Aditya Datt ('Table No. 21' fame) fails to impress. It feels like they cooked up a recipe from 'Death Race' and 'Khatron Ke Khiladi' and sprinkled some 'Luck' vibes from 15 years ago. 'Luck' starring Imran Khan and Sanjay Dutt had ironically, also faced a similar fate, by getting no luck at the box office.

Arjun Rampal is decent, Vidyut does his action stunt & ripped body show thing (as always), but Amy Jackson and Nora Fatehi seem like they got lost on set and are a complete misfit with their horrendous acting and irritating accents. A well-executed dance number by Nora might have added some appeal, but that one didn't exist in the film.

The film tries to mix extreme sports with action, but it's like they forgot the recipe. It drags on for 156 minutes, and you might find yourself checking your watch. You may not want to watch the last song in the film either. The film isn't unbearable, but certainly can be missed in the theatre.

So, 'Crakk Jeetega... Toh Jiyegaa' isn't exactly the adrenaline-packed thrill ride you would hope for. Even if you're a die-hard Vidyut Jammwal fan, this one might not crack your movie favorites list.

This Movie Crakk Jeetega Toh Jiyega Is A Good Try To Make A Movie On Genre Of Squid Games Or Mad Max But It's A Good Try In This Genre If We Compare This Movie To A Indian Movies On This Genre Such As Ganpath And It's A Very Better Movie In Terms Of Action And Plot And Visual Effects But The Problem Is Performances Are Not That Much Good But If You Are A Action Fan Or Parkour Fan It Will Be Rememberable Watch For You And Vidyut Jamwal Was Not Good In This Movie If We Watch It From A Angle In Which We Will Watch That He Can Do Better But This Movie Is Good In Set Design But It Has A Messy Screenplay And It Deserves To Be A Hit Because Of This Movie Becomes A Hit Filmmakers Will Make More Movies On This Genre.

I recently watched the movie, and I have to say it left me with mixed feelings. The acting was decent, nothing extraordinary but not terrible either. I'd rate it around a 6 out of 10.

Now, the music and sound effects really stood out to me. They were so well done, really added depth to the scenes, and kept me engaged throughout. You feel it throughout the sorry. Plus there were no unnecessary typical Bollywood songs. Solid 10 out of 10 there.

As for the action, it was good, kept the adrenaline pumping, but it didn't blow me away. I'd say it's about a 7 out of 10. The story was fine, definitely different from what I expected, which was a nice surprise. However, there were moments where it felt a bit cluttered with unnecessary subplots. I'd give the story a 6 out of 10.

On the visual side, the cinematography was impressive. The scenes were beautifully shot, capturing the essence of the story. The movie felt sped up a bit, I'd rate it around an 7 out of 10.

Overall, I'd say the movie was alright. It had its highs and lows, but it's worth a watch if you're into something a bit different than your usual bollywood movies.

The most cringiest movie i've watched. Apart from Arjun Rampal's looks nothing in this movie was good. Total flop. On top of this they tried to glorify running on top of trains risking lives. Unbelievably bad casting and unbelievably poor storyline. Besides Arjun Rampal literally nobody in this movie can act. I cannot belive this movie was allowed to be shot and produced at this level. The voice of the main actor(Vidyut) seemed like voice-over, it just was so out of place and managed to ruin the entire movie even more. Certain parts of the filmography seemed so unprofessional, the just inserted vignette and cheap overlays in some parts that made it look like it was shot on an iPhone. Overall a really really disappointing film.

"To make a great film, you need three things - the script, the script, and the script," emphasized Alfred Hitchcock.

Unfortunately, the narrative of this particular movie fails to captivate. The characters are thinly sketched, lacking the depth necessary to truly resonate with the audience. Even the protagonist's motivations seem to lack authenticity, leaving viewers disconnected from the story.

To ensnare the audience's attention, Makers resorted to a bombardment of action, seemingly unaware of its incongruity with the tale at hand, employing it as a desperate lifeline to sustain intrigue.

In conclusion, Vidyut's open challenge to Tiger, who epitomizes the trend towards mindless action movies.
