Panipat

Panipat -The Great Betrayal

Weak 1st half,lackluster 2nd half, terrific n touching climax 2 Star ⭐⭐

Film is a visual granduer with direction right in place , a terrific and touching climax but what fails is the plot of the film and its transition specially the first half was loose and concentrated more on the love life ,2nd half was over stretched and picked up towards the end and specially the last 15 minutes were very engaging , CGI was poor and looked artificial at points , Arjun Kapoor delivered a better performance but was not upto the mark for the level of a warrior ,the dialouges mouthed by him had very less conviction and almost no impact. Overall the film dosent live upto the expectations , for the heart touching climax , Ashutosh Gowarikars Directon , few sequences and top notch performance by Sanjay dutt this film scores few stars . 

THINGS TO LOOK OUT FOR

>Sanjay Dutt in his fiery and tough role has delivered a solid performance and amazing screen presence

>The direction was good and at at large scale looks good and the visual granduer adds to it at points

>Last 20 mins are the best part of the film where the plot gets ferucious and also we have a heart touching climax 

>Sanjay Dutt nailed it with his performance in the fiery role 

NEGATIVES

>The legnth of the movie is the first flaw it has been over stretched out of limits and fails to generate intrest 

>Music is average and songs are too long 

>The first half hardly had anything it was just about the love story

>CGI and Vfx is very poor and at some scenes it looks really very poor,raw and untouched 

>Arjun Kapoor Did his best but couldnt match up to the aura of the character and dialouges really didnt suit him 

>Kriti Sanon had quite good screen presence but most of it is not required enough for the film

>Most Characters are under utilised in the film 

>Editing is big time messed up in this film

>Camera work also could have been better few scenes miss the detailing it required , 

FINAL VERDICT

With lot of effort put on this film and lot of time taken for its making and everything put together this film missed to hit the right kind of screenplay . Kudos for the effort but the film sadly disapppoints
