New Delhi, October 6: Movie: Go

Rating: *

Cast: Gautam Gupta (Abhay), Nisha Kothari (Vasundhra), Kay Kay Menon, Rajpal Yadav, Sherveer Vakil, Ravi Kale>/b>, Govind Namdeo

Director: Manish Srivastava

Off late RGV has made those not-so good films, and the terribly bad ones too, but with Go, he seems to be getting into the act of making unnecessary films!

And this truly is unforgivable.

There is just no reason why you would ‘GO’ for a film like this.

Picture this.

Abhay and Vasundhra, lovers of course, have eloped and run into loads of unwanted situations and people.

Now a chief minister kills his deputy chief minister and the evidence tumbles onto the path of the lovers.

And then enters the mischievous cop, doing something to add to the story. And yes, the colourful characters like the killer and the conman add further spice. Supposedly.

And this claptrap caper continues for two full hours. Phew!!

No element of the film has the strength to add even an inch of vigour on the big screen.

The music is stale and the songs have no beat or tune to keep you GOing.

There is nothing called cinematography. Perhaps the camera is on and kept so for quite sometime, grabbing whatever they could.

Editing is poor and if the scissors were used aptly, perhaps the film would have never seen the light of day.

And now, Nisha Kothari! Just like she had ‘tried’ to portray the bubbly Basanti of Sholay in Aag, here too she ‘tried’ to look like a sexy, steamy sizzler.

But does Bollywood have scope for such ‘hit-n-trial’ actors?

How does RGV manage to frame this inept babe-wannabe babble time and again?

And the new discovery Gautam Gupta… perhaps it was the right break for him. For there was no scope for the muscleman to be compared to good acting skills. Nothing of the sort ever existed in the Factory product.

Actors like Kay Kay Menon and Rajpal Yadav have been completely wasted.

What RGV saw in the script and how Manish Srivastava manoeuvred his way into the director’s chair is perhaps a mystery that would make for a more interesting storyline than Go.

It’s not worth it. DON’T GO!
