Film Review - Dhamaka streaming on Netflix
#sanjuzzreviews #DhamakaMovie #DHAMAKA
Loosely based on the 2013 Korean film ' The Terror Live' , Dhamaka is director Ram Madhwani's expose of the TRP hungry media where news is made and sold to the people.
This thriller starts off with a down and out anchor ( Aryan) getting a call from a terrorist with a threat that he will blow up the sealink if his demands are not met. The anchor sees this as an opportunity to regain his past glory and that's where the film starts picking up pace.
Kartik Aryan has done a great job in coming out of his 'oh cho chweet' loverboy image to play a serious character. His demeanor, body language, a myriad of emotions which he experiences in the course of the film deserve a special mention. Amruta Subhash who plays his ruthless boss has also played her part very well.
The film starts off with a bang, 'a la Wednesday', but falters in the second half where it gets too preachy. However there is a twist towards the climax which is interesting.
The Cinematography & VFX are really nice and the explosions happening on the sealink are depicted very realistically.
This cudve been another Wednesday, but sadly fall short of expectations. A one-time watch film, not too bad either.
My rating: 2.5/5 .. adios 🙂
