When I saw the trailer of Jagga
Jasoos on Youtube, I wasn’t very much impressed with it and found it very
boring. But when I decided to watch it, I had prepared to go in with a positive
mindset even though my parents started uttering “0 Star” within the first ten
minutes of the movie. But after watching the movie, I can say that the spirit
of Anurag Basu is undeniably and unarguably challenging and worth-applauding.
The concept in his mind and its projection on screen with such a cinematic
experience tells the hard-work he has put in this movie. The 3-years long time
is visible in each and every frame.
The movie starts with Katrina
telling bored little children different cases of Jagga Jasoos and declares even
her being a part of his adventure. The way music is used in this movie is
incredible and something which the Indian audience has not seen before. That is
why the movie is not getting accepted here because people are finding music as
a lighter note and not concentrating towards the story that is been told
through it. Later on, when Jagga’s father disappears leaving Jagga Jasoos alone
in a boarding school and the way he discusses his theories with his friends
there is enjoyable as a viewer.
Later on, the main case on which
the whole movie revolves is discussed in the 2nd half. This part
should have been enough interesting to move the viewers but unfortunately, it
seems as if the writer did not have more creative thinking to make this look
little more difficult. All the secrets and suspense are revealed just like that
without any unpredictability. The viewers themselves know what might happen in
the next scene. The main problem and the biggest one is the length of the film
which it didn’t deserve. It’s easy to find Jagga Jassos interesting till
105-120 minutes but post that each minute seems to be a challenge for the
audience because even too much music is a problem. Hence, that’s the plus point
of the movie and also the biggest negative of it.
Talking about the performances,
Ranbin Kapoor as Jagga Jasoos does wonderful and keeps the same expression on
his face through the movie and never leaves his character. He is the person
after Anurag Basu for whom this movie will always be remembered. Katrina Kaif,
once again, acts as plain as it gets possible. Not convincing at all. Saswata
Chatterjee is incredible in his role and he is the life of this movie after
Ranbir Kapoor. Overall, considering the length of the movie, its superb visuals
and the predictable suspense in the 2nd half, I give this movie 2.5
star out of 5.
Thanks.
