Cover-Poster-Roy

Roy (2015)

Spread the love

My Ratings: 0.5/5.

An interesting fresh choice of actors, a handful of catchy songs and a decent film trailer – who would have known that the result will be a waste of almost 2 and 1/2 hours of my life.

Roy-Poster1Roy will probably be the most hyped disappointment of this year.

Unfortunately within the very first fifteen minutes you get the sense that you have being lured into something unexpectedly boring but till then it’s too late. For the next two hours you are trapped like a bird in a dark cage with a single source of uncomfortable, harsh light that doesn’t let you sleep.

The supposed-to-be dynamic star cast Ranbir KapoorJacqueline Fernandez, and Arjun Rampal tries to act out their parts but without a proper script it’s always tough.

Roy-PosterKabir (Arjun Rampal playing the lead role) is a hotshot writer/director struggling to write his own film script, a playboy who falls in love with another film director Ayesha (Jacqueline Fernandez). 

Ranbir Kapoor though having relatively lesser screen space manages to achieve the difficult task of having not a single expression on his face throughout the film. (I think he should choose his scripts more wisely in future).

For debutant director/writer Vikramjit Singh it evidently didn’t work out this time, but i guess there is always a next time.

Ordinary editing and camera and below average dialogues.

Amal Mallik though deserves a mention for the soulful music of Roy, the only positive aspect in the film.

I won’t personally recommend Roy to anybody.  Watch it at your own risk.
