Race Movie Review

Race, the latest venture of Bollywood's Men in White, Abbas-Mustan, had a dull first half and a better second half. It started with a lovely aerial view of the picturesque Durban city. The characters were introduced and the movie continued with a number of twists. Some of them were really worthy. The one thrilled me most was the way Katrina's negative shade introduced. I was bit surprised to see Katrina in this role. It was difficult to think a sweet, sexy lady like Katrina in this role. It was really a masterstroke. But some of the major twists were really unrealistic. The realisation of Saif about his younger brother's plan in the hospital could be shown in far more realistic way. Again, Akshaye didn't trust Bipasha. So, he should keep eye on her to see if she was playing double cross with him. Moreover, Akshaye's presence in the marriage register office and making love with Katrina before receiving the money of the insurance ware also difficult to digest. The diector duo were smart, but not inelligent. The film would suffer due to its vulnerable script. Moreover, the songs introduced didn't go wth the mood of the film. They were aweful and frustrating. On the whole, Abbas-Mustan failed to thrill again.
