Hero (2015)

Disturbing yet enthralling

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

A very romantic film, tender and full of action, I am happy with the movie. This film lets you see how the love changes the lives of many characters, and what starts out as something so far removed from love ends more close to him. In this film you see how two characters fight for his love, and when you see this fact, this film touches you enough and we inevitably feel tenderness to see this. I love this movie, is one of the few movies that I had seen that worth seeing. This movie contains scenes with dialogues and songs that are a majestic work of art, the cameraman and all the workers who helped make this film certainly they did a great job, I congratulate you. This film give you a good time entertainment. Congratulations! Excellent movie! And yea this is sooraj pancholi and what ever actress name is first movie so of cpurse its going to be a flop but in my opinion i don't think it should be a flop

Why do every star-kid believes that it is his/her fundamental, God- given right to become an actor? Both Sooraj Pancholi & Athiya Shetty fizzle out, deliver a sub-standard performance which should never have occurred. The only saving grave of the movie is the intense confrontation between Aditya Pancholi and Tigmanshu Dhulia.. except that, the movie sucks. Completely illogical concept and logic of the screenplay. Even if I assume that the targeted audience of this movie is a 17-year old kid, there is no way you can show Mumbai to Kashmir journey completed in 2 hours or a bullet wounded guy, slipping into a fast flowing river, emerging with nothing but 2 cuts on his arms! The cliché:' Ek gunda kabhi IG ki ladki se pyaar nahi kar sakta' was repeated so many times, that it was cringe worthy actually. Dialogues are the worst part of this movie. And Salman bhai's hangover on the whole movie was actually way too much.. his song is played after every 10 minutes, and his style of action, dialogue delivery and antics is visible all the way to the end. As if Nikhil Advani had only been appointed as an obligation. Disappointing movie.. If you want to retain the magic of the original 'Hero', then don't watch it. 1.5/5

Newcomers have a tough time staying afloat in the volatile entertainment industry. In 2020, when there will be no trace of either of the lead actors of this film, we can finally corroborate that the previous statement is, in fact, true.After he's done with his theatrics, heroics, and groovy dance moves, Sooraj (Pancholi Jr.) is assigned the task of kidnapping the daughter (Shetty) of the city's Inspector General (Dhulia) by his gangster-turned-politician father (Pancholi Sr.) on grounds of political vendetta. Soon idiotic dialogs encapsulate the drama that has the power to put off its viewers, because in here arguments turn into long-winded sessions of romance, and kidnappers fool around with their captive. Just because the original villain is the real life father of the so-called hero of the film, he's not sent to the gallows at the end. But worry not, because we have some random villains kicking the bucket. It is basically a love story where the characters use words like "calculate" & "alt+shift+delete" to describe the situations. You now know what you're looking at.Pancholi Jr. has a long way to go if he wants to stick to acting that is not solely driven by his toned body, and Shetty may want to check her options. Taking a French bath and screaming your lungs out is not considered acting. Dhulia is the only good man in the film which eventually drags the hell out to reach a point of stagnancy.BOTTOM LINE: Hero has a tried and tested story, but the actors playing the characters are like a bunch of toddlers who are yet to grow milk teeth.GRADE: FCan be watched with a typical Indian family? YES

It's watchable.. There is nothing extraordinary about this film. It was the big debut for Sooraj Pancholi and well, with Salman Khan's backing, the actor has turned out quite well. One thing that Nikhil Advani does right and probably the most sale-able thing in the film is Sooraj and Athiya's affable chemistry. All the scenes involving their romantic moments have been handled deftly and they truly form some good moments in the film. But unfortunately while showing these good moments, the entire movie takes a back seat. This movie has been cut out from the same fabric as Subhash Ghai's 1983 hit of the same name, director Nikhil Advani creates a similar effervescent ambiance as the original, bubbling with the energy of its young debutants.
