Krrish 3 review

KRRISH 3 the new highest grossing Bollywood film of all time...finally restoring my belief in the Indian public. Well, for now at least. The third part of this trilogy, Krrish 3 has shattered all records!
After back-to-back hits in this banner "Koi Mil Gaya" and "Krrish", Krrish 3 fulfils its presumptions.

First of all, I actually do not understand the point of this title, Krrish 3... it makes no sense whatsoever. "Koi Mil Gaya 3, Krrish Returns or Krrish 2" would have been better names for it, but for some strange reason, the director, Rakesh Roshan was adamant on this title and went along with it.
After that, the music...Rajesh Roshan completely flopped. The songs do not intrigue, interact or relate to the audience in anyway. I understand that some songs like "Dil Tu Hi Bataa" and "Raghupati Raghav" are catchy but do not live up to the expectations of this film. "God Allah Aur Bhagwan" have had a very controversial review on it, due to the lyrics in the song, but has to be the most meaningful song of the film. This song is shot beautifully!

Rakesh Roshan has made a good film, worthy of praise in Bollywood. These types of films have not worked out very well previously, apart from its predecessor "Krrish". It is evident that Rakesh Roshan brings out the best in his son, Hrithik Roshan.
Playing a double role as Rohit Mehra, genius scientist and Krishna/Krrish, the superhero. He was outstanding in both characters and in the scenes where he was playing both, it seemed as though the two were actually two different people. Here, the director has done a commendable job.
Vivek Oberoi, playing Kaal (the supervillian), was brilliant. I won't go deeper into his role as he portrayed Kaal exceptionally well. A criticism with Kaal is his suit... That is atrocious!! There was no point of that suit!!!

Unfortunately, the female lead, Priyanka Chopra does not have enough screen time and is shown as more of an "eye-candy" and a "damsel in distress" in this film. Without giving anything away, she does pull a decent enough performance to not make critics go crazy against her.
A VERY FATAL FLAW IN THE FILM.....Kangana Ranaut disappointed all the way through out the film. I do not understand how she could act so terribly after films like "Fashion", "Gangster" and "Life In A...Metro". Her role was to act like a robot...emotionless, but she could not pull that off at all. Kaya (her character) is too outrageously cheesy! No doubt about that.

Always with Hrithik Roshan, we have to bring his dancing into the scheme of things. He is an amazing dancer but Remo D'Souza actually choreographed quite amazing steps for him. In the song "Raghupati Raghav", ALL OF HRITHIK's DANCE MOVES WERE BRILLIANT! EXCEPTIONALLY EXECUTED!
The action and special effects in the film were good! Although, some scenes did seem completely fake, overall, the special effects team did a good job bringing in all the imagination that is put into Hollywood films like Spiderman. For an Indian film, Krrish 3 had extraordinary effects.

The story is quite original and shows us how Superman would fight a negatively oriented X-Men. Obviously, the cheesiness had to be present. I would give an overview of the film, but I really do not want to give any spoilers in this review.

Beware, this film is not everyone's cup of tea, but will indeed entertain you.
