Your weekend Movie review

Date:

Director Remo D’Souza’s Bollywood movie “A Flying Jatt”  featuring Tiger Shroff, Jacqueline Fernandez and professional wrestler Nathan Jones in the lead roles, has got mixed reviews from the audience.

But increasingly, India is seeing the creation of its own ‘local’ superheroes and the people are really taking to them with zeal and enthusiasm. Earlier we had Krrish and now Balaji Motion Pictures’ Flying Jatt! Excessive promotions, aggressive social media campaigns — the makers of ‘A Flying Jatt’ did not leave a stone unturned to promote the movie.

A still from the movie 'A Flying Jatt'.

Aman (Tiger Shroff) stays with his bebe (Amrita Singh) and brother Rohit in Punjab. He loses his father at a young age. His family and the locals worship a holy tree, situated near their township; they believe the tree has powers given by Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Kirti (Jacqueline Fernandez) is a school teacher, and Aman is her secret admirer. Things sour when Mr. Malhotra (Kay Kay Menon) enters their life and insists on cutting down the holy tree to build his factories on the barren land.

Raka (Nathan Jones) is a monstrous villain, who gets his powers from toxins and chemical waste in the city. A revengeful Malhotra calls Raka to finish Aman and his family. After a run-in with Raka, Aman gets powers from the holy tree and becomes ‘A Flying Jatt’.

Remo, the choreographer turned director made his debut with ‘Faltu’ and went on to direct the ‘ABCD’ franchise, which raised the bar for his own direction skills. ‘A Flying Jatt’, however, is a step down for his skills as a director. The movie’s comic angles are weird and will compel you go for a run.

The so-called lead actress of the film is used more like a prop in it — and this is excluding her acting skills. Of course, Tiger steals the show with his dance moves and martial arts sequences, unfortunately that’s not enough to make him the saving grace of the movie.

Overall it is a typical Bollywood Superhero flick which kids would enjoy , but on a serious not “A Flying Jatt” doesn’t fly high as expected.
