'A Flying Jatt' is a great opportunity gone wrong. Director Remo D'Souza tries his best to make fun superhero film, with a message on pollution & its brutal after-effects, but sadly, the film never soars.
'A Flying Jatt' Synopsis: A timid young man gains superpowers & becomes a superhero. But, a mighty villain, made of dirt & pollution, comes his way.
'A Flying Jatt' has a few moments that shine, particularly the protagonist's banter with his boisterous mom & bumbling brother, but that's all that there is, sadly. The superhero bits lack power & an unnecessary romantic angle adds nothing to the goings-on. Also, the film is a bit too long!
The Writing plays a spoilsport. Remo's Direction is strictly okay. Cinematography is decent. Editing lacks crispness. Art & Costume Design are average. Sachin-Jigar's Score is quite good.
Performance-Wise: Tiger is unmistakably earnest & looks the part. But, the rawness is still evident & he needs to work harder on his acting. Amrita Singh is fantastic as his mom. So is Gaurav Pandey, as his brother. Nathan Jones isn't menacing enough. Kay Kay Menon is such a fine actor & he's always worth watching. Jacqueline Fernandez is wasted.
On the whole, 'A Flying Jatt' stands on a faulty script.
