Heropanti Movie Review Heropanti Movie Review Heropanti is directed by Sabbir Khan who made his directorial debut with disastrous “Kambakkht Ishq”.

However, his action stunts are simply stunning and are highlight of “Heropanti”. It is only those sequences which show him performing gravity defying acrobatics, which entertain audiences. Kriti Sanon has very limited role, however she manages to do reasonably well in her role of damsel in distress.

Heropanti Movie Review
Heropanti is directed by Sabbir Khan who made his directorial
debut with disastrous Kambakkht Ishq. The director, despite having
a plethora of stars in the movie, with Hollywood biggies such as
Sylvester Stallone and Brandon Routh, failed to make any favourable
impression. During the promotional tour of Heropanti, he had said
that he has learned from his mistakes and has become a better
director. But, with what was served in Heropanti, it seems he has
only regressed.
Plot outlineThere isn't much in Heropanti movie which could
qualify as a plot. The director aimlessly throws couple of
stereotypes together to develop a drab and threadbare plot. The
movie is set in the orthodox Jatland where society is too
misogynist. A young lovers have run away and to be bride's father
unleashes his goons to track them down. In a bid to find to find
them, he rounds up boy's best buddies and one of them is Babloo
(Tiger Shroff) And out of nowhere he falls in love with the
to-be-bride's younger sister (Kriti Sanon). He now has a herculean
task of winning his ladylove without offending his fearsome father.
That's what i meant by the threadbare plot.
Actor PerformanceTiger Shroff has unbelievably stunning
masculine physique and unusually beautiful feminine face. His
acting performance leaves lot to be desired, his dialogue delivery
is very poor. However, his action stunts are simply stunning and
are highlight of Heropanti. It is only those sequences which show
him performing gravity defying acrobatics, which entertain
audiences.
Kriti Sanon has very limited role, however she manages to do
reasonably well in her role of damsel in distress. She has the
beauty and grace which could help her in the industry where
majority of movies just need leading ladies to act as eye candies.
Prakash Raj has once again done a decent job.
Positive pointsAction sequences. Some of the stunts which Shroff
Jr. manages to do are simply breathtaking. He has great agility and
great body to become a good action hero. Heropanti could have been
much better and bearable if the director had focussed a bit more on
his lead actor's strengths.
Negative pointsThe direction. It is too linear and amateurish.
Everything in the movie happens randomly and doesn't have much
connection with the logic. For example, to show the budding romance
between the lead pair director usesrandom songs rather than any
meaningful surge of emotions or strong passion. The dialogues of
Heropanti are another annoying aspect. Especially, Shroff Jr's
repetitive take on his Heropanti.
VerdictHeropanti is a dull and predictable movie with some cool
stunts thrown together. Tiger Shroff impresses with hisaction
stunts, but disappoints otherwise. However, if he stars in another
action movie, I will definitely watch it. Not sure, about this one
though.
