Kid nap

i just came back after watching the movie 'Kidnap'. The kid Imraan Khan is the only saviour in the film. Otherwise it is all nap.

The plot is quite interesting but the treatment very shallow and manipulative. Manipulative because the team has used all the tactics to make the film a money minting instrument. Skimpy clothes, heroine coming out of the sea in a bikini and other such unwanted things are just forcefully added to draw viewers unconvincingly.

I wonder what was the producer or whoever's majboori to cast Vidya Malvade in the role of Minisha Lamba's mother. Needless to say, she doesn't look convincing. Not as Minisha's husband, not as Sanjay Dutt's wife. Minisha looks jaded. Not very comfortable in the bold clothes & all.

The story could have been keeping-you-on-the-edge types but Imran's childhood episode is not very effective and believable. The clues also are not very intriguing and intelligent.

Hmmm....i almost took a nap writing about it :)
