The Abhay Movie Review

 


RATING: 1

Director of “Abhay”, Suresh Krishna, has dabbled a little too much in technology - the digitally generated visual effects - and pyrotechnics to give a Hollywoodian look to the film. Thirru's cinematography is innovative and engages the viewer, so does the riveting special effects by George Merkert and Ian Johnson.

But none of these can substitute a good story and subtle direction.

The truth is, Abhay's script is packed with many absurdities. To keep the audience interest from flagging, Kamal has interspersed his vapid story with inane songs and frequent fight sequences.

Besides, there are many unexplained-for turns and twists in the story line. For instance, after his escape from the mental asylum, Abhay, who has been incarcerated for good many years, goes about all primed up in snazzy outfits painting the town red (literally). Then, out of the blue it dawns on him that the root cause of all the evil that is done to him is just one person - Tejaswini - and she should die.

Thereby begins the inevitable tussle between the twins. And as the norm is, the good one wins in the end.

Being an actor who has remarkable control and manipulation of his body, Kamal plays the psychotic Abhay and his alter ego Vijay (both alike and yet the antithesis of each other) with conviction. However, his portrayal of Abhay is a bit dreary.

Clad in zaniest dresses he makes more of a hip-hop rapper out of the Abhay rather than a megalomaniac on the run. Particularly comical is the long sniff and the sudden crick of neck that precede his phantasmagoric trips and his killing sprees.

As far as acting goes, Raveena matches Kamal and cuts a niche with her subtle emotive range. Now she is a suave Newsreader, now a vulnerable fiancee and now a prospective victim to a deranged psychopath.

Manisha Koirala on the other hand is wasted in a just-for-the-heck-of-it role that seems to have been written deliberately to add some oomph quotient in an otherwise chaste story.
