TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
wertogg I really didn't like the message that the dad was wrong. They really stressed that and it was so stupid. I also didn't like the attempt rape scene. They should have started the save before it got to that point because they did a horrible job with it. The "no means no" crap gosh bogus.Too many non-Indian dancers. I hate seeing non-Indians in Indian movies. As the back dancers. I really don't like that.Tiger is an awesome dancer. His lines were so dam stupid. Especially about the women being mistreated. The whole women mistreatment thing was utterly stupid. They did show that the dad really cared and it was the daughter that was stupid. But man they didn't do a good job. This movie was definitely a movie for guys and they added this bogus message I guess to attract some women. The dad was trying to do what was best and they showed that. But this make your own decisions message for not just girls but also boys is not right. Even tigers actor was disobeying his dad. Parents have lots of experience that goes behind their decisions. And it's about time that we start selling the message to the youth that you need to "take control of your life"... When it is the opposite. As you see people who don't take their parents blessings and guidance suffer.It was really a fun watch. Tigers moves are just awesome awesome.My favorite is when the 4 guys are lined up and he Tiger was picked by the dad as knowing where after the uncle overheard the daughter. The daughter had hard time selling out tiger which was nice.If it wasn't for the "disobey your parents" for youth I would have given this movie a lot more. Music was catchy and fun.
monsieurnikhil123 When i first saw the trailer of the movie i thought that Tiger shroff is trying to ape salman khan but no he isn't trust me you can watch this movie for Mr.shroff alone .He carries the whole movie on his shoulders .He is the best thing that can happen to this movie .And i can say that this movie had a promising debut What is good about the movie ? Like i said tiger shroff is the soul of the movie .His dance,style and fights adds great attraction to the movie .He has the potential and can deliver hits .I think we will be hearing more of Mr.shroff .His versatility is praiseworthy . Music of the movie is fantastic .The script is pretty decent .But bollywood should stop relying on south Indian movie scripts What is bad about the movie ? Well apart from Mr.Shroff none of the actors deliver .Prakash raj did a convincing job but he needs to work on the dialog delivery .Kirti sanon has just been a pretty face in the movie and doesn't do much in the movie except for playing a damsel in distress . I would give this movie 7/10 one star for Mr.Shroff
Achyuta Ghosh "No picture can hold my interest when the leading man's bust is bigger than the leading lady's."Many years ago Groucho Marx gave this reason for not seeing Samson And Delilah. Such is the case for Heropanti. For all his antics on screen, Groucho was considered exceedingly wise. So is this logic of his still applicable on Heropanti? Read onAh, the star kids of Bollywood. Producers believe they are born with the charisma, talent and skills that their parents often worked entire lifetimes to create. So they pump in big bucks to create movies that showcase them, success is anyways taken for granted. The easiest thing to add is a ribbed physique, followed by dancing skills, and action chops, so most of the promotional trailers, and half the launch movie focus on these three aspects. As far as acting and a decent script goes, they take a distant backseat. People come in to the theaters enticed by the promos, and anyways a good first weekend more or less ensures the ubiquitous 100 crores. Having said that, I found plenty to like about Heropanti.First is the background- honor killings. People up North are familiar with this heinous concept applicable to in certain societies to people marrying out of caste. When Renu runs away with her lover, her father Chaudhary (Prakash Raj) launches a manhunt to track them down. He discovers Bablu (Tiger Shroff) who is his daughter's lover's friend, might have assisted them escape. Bablu pretends to help him, but falls in love with Chaudhury's other daughter- Dimpy (Kriti Sanon). The rest of the story revolves around how the lead pair come together amidst much mas-ala and emotion- think of it as a mix of papa Shroff's Hero and the eternal DDLJ.The two débutantes do a decent job. Agreed Tiger Shroff as a star is as clichéd as they come. Gruff on the outside but with a heart of gold, chiseled frame, he fights with style, and dances gracefully. Acting is a different matter altogether. He delivers his lines with monotony, and perhaps smiles too much at the camera. Kriti Sanon reminds us of a younger Raveena Tandon. Since the movie is all about Tiger's Heropanti, she gets precious little to do- except look good and play dumb. For once Prakash Raj is not doing his usual over the top act. He puts in a convincingly nuanced performance of a father straddling the line between tradition and affection. Other characters offer comedic elements to liven up things in a feudal Haryanvi backdrop that is decidedly dreary.Director Sabbir Khan, while trying to make a mas-ala entertainer, makes sure to hammer in a reminder of Tiger's lineage by ensuring a background score that is essentially from Hero. Pity though, Heropanti's music is not even half as good as Hero. It is an OK one time watch. Let us see where Tiger goes from here. Word of advice for him- get a mustache, son!
binducherungath Heropanti, debut film for both the two main protagonists Tiger Shroff (Jacky Shroff's son) and Kriti Sanan (she has worked in south earlier), has a concept very much seen and heard off. It is being rumoured that Heropanti is remake of Telugu superhit movie Parugu. It showcases the conservative families where parents are having tremendous love towards their children and also very protective. But parents' love vanishes the moment they learn about their child's desire to get married against their wishes. And if elopement happens, then the frantic search of the couple by the family begins; not to accept them but to kill them (known as 'Honour Killing' in our society, although there is nothing honourable at all in this). For the whole life, parents try to bring up their children without letting them know any troubles. All they want is that they should grow up and never become a threat to their status. Parents are just concerned about the well-being of their children and in their language, they can never ever think anything bad for their children. But when it comes to an important decision of life like marriage, parents don't even bother to involve their children, rather end up imposing their desires upon the children. As parents, we must make our children competent enough to take decisions of their lives, we must facilitate them to choose the right life partner in an open communication environment, cannot afford to have autocratic approach and impose decisions upon them. The plot did remind me of Rangrezz and Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge at times.The movie begins with the introduction of Chaudhary Suraj Singh (Prakash Raj), his brothers Bhuppi Bhai, Pappi Bhai and other family members who have all gathered for the marriage of Renu, elder daughter of Chaudhary (Sandeepa Dhar). Chaudhary Suraj's Haweli is in the Jat-land, where loud moments viz. shero-shayari, videography, song-dance, boozing etc. are all shown. The celebration in the air changes into gloom mood, when Renu elopes with her boyfriend Rakesh (Devanshu Sharma). And there starts the head-hunting for the family and relatives of Rakesh who could let Renu's family know about their whereabouts. Finally Rakesh's three friends become the target, Bablu (Tiger Shroff) being one of them. Bablu has been given a smashing entry in the movie with some good fist-moving- action shots when Renu's relatives come to grab him, right out of his gym. Bablu and his two friends are locked up in Chaudhary's haveli along with one more NRI person (who was captured just because he was wearing red jeans and the astrologer had predicted that someone in red trousers might know about the whereabouts of Renu and Rakesh). Bablu is pleasantly surprised to find her 'love at first sight' girl at Chaudhary's residence – Chirpy Dimpy, second daughter of Chaudhary (Kriti Sanan), but it takes almost the first half to explore his girl in that Jat-land. Does Dimpy accept Bablu's love ? She knows that one step out of the tradition would fetch her lot of challenges from her family, so, how does she move further ? What happens when the family learns about Bablu's love for Dimpy? Does Dimpy's family ever set Bablu and his friends free?We have seen such plots many times in the past. What I felt was that the presentation missed punches. Love between Bablu and Dimpy is not developed properly. But yes, the plot tries to highlight both the versions – the reasoning for the rage of a father whose daughter elopes and also the youngsters' reasoning behind wanting the freedom to choose their life partners. Director has wisely avoided any honour-killing scene and he touches this core issue in a very sensitive manner.While watching the movie, I observed certain errors (though minor in nature) which could have been very well avoided. When Bablu and his friends are hit and tortured, in one frame, their face is bruised, but then the face is bruise free in the succeeding frame. Dimpy mentions Rakesh as Rajesh in one of her dialogue. The dialogue by Bablu (in regard to his Heropanti): Sabko Aati Nahi and Meri Jaati Nahi" is a bit overused in the movie, but probably to justify the title. Tiger Shroff has got a good Launchpad to showcase his excellent dancing, action skills. Though, I felt, he is less convincing in the frames where he has to emote and express. His action scenes have shades of Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgan; his shirtless moments remind us of Salman Khan, and his dancing skills are fabulous, which has shades of Hrithik Roshan. Kriti Sanan, although does not have much to do, looks cute and charming in many frames. As debutantes, they have done pretty decent work, and we should not ignore them.
