Two Line Reviews - #298

Movie: Saath Khoon Maaf (Hindi,2011)


Plot: An enigmatic lady is unfortunate when it comes to choosing her 'man'. Beyond breaking point, she gets rid of the man, gets another man. 'Man' becomes 'men', 'men' die & will she ever choose the right one & get seventh time lucky?

Highlights:
  • This Vishal Bhardwaj offering, based on a novel is sound on suspense and thrills that one would expect from a film falling under such a genre
  • Priyanka Chopra, as Susanna Anna-Marie Johannes, lands on a plum role and uses it to the fullest extent and delivers! A nice gutsy essayal breaking off from the stereotypes
  • The photography with its dark shades suits the film's mood & is a plus
Lowlights:
  • An audaciously fictitious story line & a devoted adoption from a book make the screenplay end up being not so lively
  • Neil, John & Irrfan end up playing roles of little note.
Priyanka's show all the way!
