Quck Gun Murugan: Okay.. But Rajni is the king, i say!!!

I am sure you'd been tempted to see the movie after the promos and you should watch it once too. But make sure to keep your brains outside and go with a few friends who are the 'seeti' types and you are gonna love it. The movie has some really damn funny sequences but just the wait for those is an ordeal in itself. I very well understand that its a spoof and its supposed to be tacky, but i guess it was too spoofy and no dhinchak rajni ishtyle which i was lookin forward to.

As far as the goods are concerned, it is refreshing and 'different' from the usual masala flick and has its own place in the sun. Some of the jokes are damn funny and would make you rolling in your seats. But as i said, they are too far and few. The plot in itself is very novel and the 'idea' seems to generate a lot of interest but i guess the problem would be that the movie doesnt have a repeat value. Performance wise, QGM stands out and but Nobody else. And he cant keep the movie on his shoulders all the time.

The problem is presence of too many 'buts'.. Nice idea But not great execution. Good performance by QGM but others. Decent Script but technically a dud. Good one liners but too few o them.. An idea which could have made it BIG but ended up being just another spoof ..

Infact i toh had imagined a few sequels even before the movie. QGM as a brand. He could have been a cult. The character which could have had repeat value. More like the Jauhar Mehmood series during yesteryears.. But was disappointed. My heart bleeds to write that its such an amazing opportunity wasted.

There were so many 'could haves' there. I mean just imagine Rajni and all his antics. I just wished that there were many more crazy fight sequences. I mean the stuff where you throw a blade in the air and shoot a bullet bang in the middle, the blade snaps, and there are three dead bodies.. THAT kinda stuff, i just wish the director had been just a tad bit more creative and not only dependent on the character but situations too!!
Technically, Treatment toh tacky hona hi tha. but i guess thoda zada ho gya. Production quality was more like a serial or channel V's any other reality show.

Overall: Its such a brilliang idea and character but feel nahi aayi yaar.. I just wish that the next instalment is better (or as i always say, Less worse)

Feel-O-Meter : 5/10

PS: I wish Good, Bad and the Idly rocks.. :-)
