3G - Grotesque, Gruesome & Gimmickry!
The screenplay obliterated the story. Maybe it can be dubbed as the worst screenplay of 2013 in Bollywood with a maddening plot that revolves around an unmarried couple who get into serious trouble after buying a second-hand smart-phone. Almost every sequence feels like they have been cut-short.
While Neil has portrayed his role in a very efficient way even though his character is ambiguous, Sonali is an object here with a parade of cleavages and skimpily-clad underthings with not much to act; a catalyst maybe. The music sucked big time with no respect to the vivid genre this story necessitates. One with a good message, the story of 3G is very confusing & poorly executed with shaky cinematography, amateur direction & even worse editing.
With every other person in Fiji Islands speaking Hindi, flashes of horrid faces here and there, sex, nudity, porn, foreplay, relationships, paranoia, schizophrenia, poor makeup, gruesome attitude and the rather clichéd and unorthodox idea of 'witchcraft' & black-magic instilled into technology, 3G is a disappointment. Plus, the climax is shown twice, literally.
Characters are very poorly rendered and gaudiness is the prime topic of this movie with almost everything (which is wrong) left to the viewer's imagination. Not recommended!
BOTTOM LINE: A good message lies in this haphazardly executed movie. Watch it for the high performances and some reality bites in a juxtaposition of poor film-making attributes & parameters.
Can be watched with a typical Indian family? NO

A Failed Connection
Movie specifically kicks off using Neil and also Sonal about to occasion journey, it does not pay attention to understanding the characters initially, the particular motion picture only leap starts off using scenes that happen to be only used to terrify followers using immediate sound effects and also creepy digital camera perspectives. Initial half of the particular motion picture only goes on doing this without having uncovering any puzzle. next half of the particular motion picture can be in which Sam and also Sheena start studying items and start to resolve puzzles, last but not least they will perform get acquainted with the particular puzzle from male climax after which motion picture concludes having a pose and also representative actually leaves any accountable information for the visitors.
It's been several years because Bollywood continues to be doing horror shows along with recently just about all they will attempt complete is frighten people with strange sound files along with digital camera hints without having reason from it, it's got did wonders a few times however how could it function when they replicate very same goods repeatedly? 3G is categorized in the very same type however simply that there's the latest kind for your ghost a cellular phone. Possibly the way overseer revealed this mysteries unveil is uninspiring mainly because script seemed to be inadequate, not any scene persists pertaining to sizable amount of time along with out of the blue a tune appears from no place. Ultimately he / she gives out a liable communication which usually no-one who is viewing attaches.
Entire 3G – A Fantastic Connection is usually a Bollywood's clichéd scary movie with absolutely nothing fresh along with at the same time it had been inadequately directed. Without music and cinematography movie would have been even more painful.
Bottom-line : 3G – A Failed Connection :poop:

I love Mukesh
Just Remember Don't play with the humanity.Over all idea is good must see.The below is not completely true.
"3G -A killer connection was a good attempt at horror with sci-fi idea but was brutually slained by loose script and poor direction.
A young man's life changes overnight when he buys a new cellphone and receives a call from an unknown number.
After watching the trailer of 3G , you will feel urge to watch the movie but you would be solemnly disappointed by weak direction. The main problem with 3G is the indulgence of unnecessary songs which spoils the mood of the film and over-the-top acting by Sonal Chauhan. The movie itself does not run in one sequence as if there are multiple stories running parrallalaly. Screenplay is full of loop-holes. Editing is pathetic. Dialogues are senseless. Music is way to low. It is the cinematography and art direction which makes the film beautiful. Sonal Chauhan is wooden. It is Neil Nitin Mukesh who is the only silver lining in the movie. The talented actor emotes very well and carries off different personality with ease."

An innovative idea lost in its monotonous execution.
The fact that Horror films have a decent pull in the Hindi viewers cannot be denied by anyone knowing the Indian market well. Yet, another important acceptable fact remains that today our Horror ventures have in fact reached an alarming saturation point, where we do need new, fresh ideas to serve the same terror again to the viewers willing to get frightened sitting in the theaters. Now quite thoughtfully, a similar attempt has been made in 3G which undeniably has a unique plot to offer interconnecting the haunting spirits with the mobile phones lying in our pockets.
Hence thinking from that perspective, 3G does have the novelty factor, which works really well as the film begins showcasing the charming beauty of Sonal Chauhan emerging from the sea. The exciting plot of a haunted phone, receiving some strange or weird calls from an unknown destination (probably from the wandering spirits) successfully generates the desired interest in the viewers and one becomes hugely involved in the film to know what will happen next? But unfortunately nothing substantial turns up in the entire first half and the narration just keeps moving around the annoyingly ringing phone and the loving pair, without any definite purpose.
Continuing with the same monotonous feel post intermission, 3G purely fails due to its erratic writing and confusing characterization which is not able to deliver the expected, right from the word go. For instance, if a phone shattered into pieces by hammer in front of a lady, resurfaces again simply from no-where right there on her bed, then she would ideally scream like hell and would not dare to even touch it. But Sonal in the film, holds its very calmly as if there is nothing unusual for her in its reappearance quite weirdly. Similarly it never gets clear to the viewer that whether Neil is a split personality or a person possessed by the spirit, who is there to serve her own hidden purpose in his body.
The film keeps progressing at an uneven pace with many repetitive scenes, due to which one loses the interest long before it all gets over. No doubt the beautiful camera-work is there capturing the eye catchy locations and few songs composed by Mithoon are pleasing too. But in absence of a gripping progression followed by a messy screenplay, 3G is never able to pick up after making a fairly decent start. Director Shantanu and Sheershak keep trying to fill in the shortcomings with many sensuous kisses and erotic scenes which are unable to provide any kind of momentum to the film. And in the end the viewer is really not interested in getting impressed from the appealing revelations made in its climax.
Revolving around only few characters 3G has Neil Nitin Mukesh once again trying his best to come up with a worth noticing act post David. Sonal Chauhan clearly indicates the insight that probably her stunning looks and skin-show can do the trick much better than her acting. Mrinalini Sharma is only there to do some erotic postures and Asheesh Kapoor becomes another victim of the film's lackluster writing.
In all, 3G wastes a fine innovative idea stressing more upon its over the top execution and final look, planned without any clear vision. The director due surely have a knack of some wacky haunting ideas relating the supernatural with our trendy technical gadgets, as used in their earlier written plot for AA DEKHEIN ZARA (2009), talking about a camera looking into the future. But here if only they had used the idea of an evil phone more entertainingly, 3G could have showed the result, providing the much needed horrifying entertainment as expected by the viewers. Nevertheless in the present version, you may still watch it in the comfort of your homes instead of the theaters but that too only if you must.
