I really like the character of Frangi. Even though he is a trickster, as Azaad say,
Frangi is actually on a quest so independence and freedom consist of breathing for him. Is that really so? Katrinan's role as a dancer was a good decision because even if she can dance very nicely but her acting performance is not enough yet. After performance of Fatima in DANGAL, I watched her for the second time with this film and I liked her again(also very similar to katrina). And Amitabh Bachchan, living legend of India has performed well in this film with Aamir. In short, I think the film was beautiful.
The movie has attracted extreme reviews because of emotions and expectations.
The movie delivers mildly on action, drama and suspense with plot twists you won't see coming.
If you compare this movie with pirates of Caribbean series, you will be dissappointed.
Enjoy it like any other average Bollywood movie.
Aamir Khan's acting is all that's worth watching this film. This film could have been ended just in 1 and half hour, but the directors extended the film I think just for audience. CGI was a bit low over all, Amitabh was not suitable for the role he played. Katrina Should learn how to deliver dialogue. Fatima can become a good acting sensation just not yet. Her role in Dangal and then watching her like this is not helping just yet.
If u want to see an amazing Amir khan again just see the movie. Everything else is just r u bb i s h. And amir seems so powerful and energetic in his 50s same as he was in his 30s. Hats of to u man.
Don't get me wrong, it's not a good film be any measure. But it's not nearly as bad as the reviews and press makes out to be. There are far
Worse movies out there that deserve the 3/10 score much more than this one. Aamir Khans acting for one was very refreshing. It was a difficult role to play, and despite some really lousy direction and dialogue, he did a fantastic job. I thought the overall story wasn't bad, the period/pirate setting was good as well (could've done without the Jack Sparrow inspiration and slaps though). But it was the direction and execution that just was of very very low quality. On top of that they were way too ambitious with CGI and action sequences given their skills, and that backfired.
Overall a decent story line, fantastic acting by Aamir, but let down by terrible direction and dialogue. Aamir and the audience should probably stay away from this director as a general rule.
