Highly Overrated But Still Good
It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Mahesh Bhatt has remade several Hollywood films into Hindi, Jurm is a remake of Someone to watch over me(1987). The film has a decent story and it's well handled though it's copied with several changes in script to suit Indian audiences. The film keeps you involved though a bit lengthy at timesDirection by Mahesh Bhatt is good Music by Rajesh Roshan is decent though 2 songs Jab Koi Baat and Marne Ke Darr se were copied from English songs 500 miles and La BonitaVinod Khanna though looking aged does a good job in his role, this was his last film with Bhatts due to his differences with Mukesh Bhatt who was his secretary then. Meenaxi does a good job too while Shafi Inamdar is good Om Shivpuri is good, Anang Desai,Mahesh Anand are good as well rest are okay
