    Hero - a nearly successful cinematic experiment

    If you want to watch a movie for a good story , there are better ones out there; if it's crafty intelligent moviemaking you are after , Hero will not disappoint you .

    All u need to do is leave your stress package outside the theater and take a plunge into this beauty of a violence blended comic indulgence ; it is like a Tarantino movie where you don't ask 'why' but just enjoy the scene because it is so good .

    Noteworthy performances by everyone ; the female lead effortlessly connects with her eyes and leads the pack .

    A veterinary doctor cutting a jackfruit in the middle of a mayhem is a testament to the film maker's sense of humour !! A totally dissociated cook , a crocodile for a pet suffering with loss of appetite and many more bits evoke laughter every now and then.

    You need guts and passion to make such a movie - huge respect to Rishabh and team. Do watch it if you get a chance !

    Great Entertainment Movie.

    First of all don't Expect this to be like Typical Rishabh Shetty Movies. It doesn't have a great Story but it is a Good Thriller and Also it will give lots of Entertainment to Audience.

    Pros :- Amazing Bgm, Funny Dialogues and Scenes, Cannot expect more Quality from the movie which was shoot during the pandemic with limited Resources, Natural Acting

    Cons:- Short Story, Could have chopped some unnecessary scenes.

    Final verdict :- Worth Every penny for Audience. Must watch if you love Comedy movies.

    Story is dull, improbable along with unconvincing characters projection.

    The biggest let down for me is the villain himself. He didn't really have a nature, acting authentic to the character requirement to create that impact(can't reveal the scene as it's a spoiler) and most of other's acting too seems pretentious bad drama artists. The story is ok,not really that relatable or even feels deliberate setup. I would have given it even 5 or 4 for forced product placements but it's fine. It's trying too hard to be stylish and even giving some unique story and doing neither. Even the lead pair seems unconvincing. For instance even any barber won't be given such treatment when invited for a service. They should have called it as Comedy action, it is but leans to action. It had a good potential to be a very good film, but story didn't really worked out well, neither characters or acting. It could have been a TV serial or web series for most part, and would have worked better.

    Go For it

    Trailer created lot of expectations to me it reached to my expectations. The first half is witty and quirky. With good acting and nice twist and turns. In the second half the chase sequence may turn out to be over the time. And gets little boring but the pre climax and climax makes the time.
