the rest.
Performances
Nithin’s performance is
impressive. He opted for a new look and he carried off it with style.
He is good in romantic and emotional scenes.
Adah Sharma has performed well and she looked good at times. She is at ease in dialogue delivery and expressions.
Ajaz Khan is impressive, Brahmanandam is okay, Ali is wasted in a poor role, Prakash Raj’s cameo is good.
Technical Analysis
Amol Rathod’s cinematography is on
top-notch while Anup Rubens musical scores are good and the background
score is impressive. Puri Jagannadh scores in dialogues than the
direction, Screenplay is predictable, Editing is neat. Production Values
of Puri Jagannadh Touring Talkies are rich.
Analysis
Heart Attack takes off well with strong
and quirky hero characterization and the scenes of hero falling for
heroine, initial action scenes are all well-shot. Romantic love stories
need the proper plot and the tight screenplay with right mix of
entertainment. But this is where Heart Attack fails. Though the first
half is passable with few refreshing scenes and Brahamanandam’s comedy
here and there, the second half leaves you to boredom. The intensity or
the feel in the love story is purely missing and there are as many as
four songs in the first half and the placement could’ve been better.
Neither the comedy is engaging except for few Brahmanandam scenes. Heart
Attack has few interesting moments here and there but not upto the
expectations.
Final Verdict
Pretty Ordinary Time-Pass Flick…
