Maverick movie maker Ram Gopal Varma
has provided the script and screenplay for a new movie titled ‘Psycho’.
The movie is releasing today in Andhra Prasesh. We were invited to a
special premiere of the film two days ago. So let us see how this movie
is.
Story :
Story :
Meera(Nisha Kothari) is an independent and hard
working young woman. She is the sole bread winner for her family. Her
simple life takes an unexpected twist when a tall, well built and well groomed
stranger walks into her life. At first, the meetings are simple and
harmless. Meera treats him as a minor nuisance and nothing else.
But things start getting ugly very soon. The
stranger starts stalking Meera obsessively and begins to disturb her
life. Violent physical confrontations follow and Meera runs to the cops
for help. But she finds no real assistance from them.
She must now turn to her friends and family for support and protection. What happens in the end? Will the psycho spare Meera? That needs to be watched on the big screen.
Plus Points :
Nisha Kothari has portrayed the role of Meera in an
acceptable way. The guy who has played the role of a psycho has done a
very convincing job.
The short run time of the film is a big bonus. The theme selected by RGV has promise.
Minus :
The film is one big psychotic mess.’Rogue
Methdology’ was received terribly by the general public when it was
showcased in the film ‘Department’. But RGV and his proteges have not
given up on this method yet. The
end result is a splitting headache for viewers after 90 minutes. This
rogue methodology is the single biggest reason for making ‘Psycho’
unwatchable.
After starting off in a convincing and realistic fashion, the movie loses its way and ends up being superficial, melodramatic and foolish.
The film will be quite tough for casual
entertainment seekers to digest. Entertainment quotient is zero, as can
be expected in films of this genre.
The confrontation scenes between Nisha and the Psychotic guy could have been a lot better. There is no emotional depth in these scenes.
Milind Gunaji is wasted in a poorly scripted cameo.
The movie’s climax is quite outlandish and bizarre.
Technical Aspects :
Camera angles are good but the quality of
cinematography as a whole leaves a lot to be desired. Sound effects are
neat. Editing is not upto the mark.
Kishore Bhargava’s direction is not upto the mark. His work leaves a lot to be desired.
Verdict :
RGV’s ‘Psycho’ lives up to its name. The movie is a
big psychotic mess. The camera angles will leave you with a splitting
headache. You can safely skip this film.
Movie Rating............1.5/5
