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.

Don't waste your time guys.

No story line at all. Every thing is so random. Individual scenes put together without thinking about it. The amount of low quality CGI used is laughable.

Voiceover is also horrible.. just avoid it and save some time.

Vidyut is such a let down. Has no acting skills. We that explains why he does these kind of films. Nora fatehi, plz stay out of acting or atleast learn acting.

Feel sorry for Arjun as he might have felt after seeing this movie. Why in the world did he agree to this absolutely cra* of a movie.

Watch this movie of you would like to laugh at utter nonsense.

Recently watched the movie, and I have to say it left me with worst feelings. The acting was below the line, nothing extraordinary but not terrible either. I'd rate it around a 1 out of 10.

Now,the music and sound effects good. They were ordinary,there were unnecessary typical Bollywood songs. 3 out of 10 there.

As for the action, it was decent, but it didn't blow me away. I'd say it's about a 3 out of 10. The story was weak, definitely different from what I expected,even movie Luck(2009) was better for story point of view. However, there were moments where it felt a bit cluttered with unnecessary subplots. I'd give the story a 3 out of 10.

On the visual side, the cinematography was fake amd tiddy. The scenes were shot good but fake graphics were included. The movie felt sped up a bit, I'd rate it around an 4 out of 10.

Overall, I'd say the movie was not so good. It had lows aling with some highs , but it's not worth to watch if you're into something a bit different than your usual bollywood movies.

Review: Crackk (2024)

Crackk offers a rollercoaster of action-packed sequences, showcasing innovative concepts rarely seen in Bollywood. The camera work deserves applause for capturing the adrenaline-fueled moments with perfection. Among the four action sequences, the long-awaited showdown between Arjun and Vidyut in the climax stands out, delivering a thrilling experience.

However, the film isn't without its flaws. Vidyut's accent, haircut, and dressing style may be distracting, accompanied by subpar acting. Despite being a favorite, Amy Jackson's role falls flat, while Arjun Rampal shines with his usual brilliance in both acting prowess and looks. Bijoy Anand delivers commendable performance, but the repetitive ghostly appearances of Ankit Mohan become tiresome. Nora Fatehi's portrayal is average at best.

The first half of the film could have been tighter, enhancing the overall pacing and engagement. Nevertheless, Crackk remains a worthwhile watch primarily due to its high-octane action sequences. If you're a fan of adrenaline-pumping thrills, this movie won't disappoint.
