"96 Minutes" & "Paan Singh Tomar"

I saw two movies on this weekdays. One is English movie "96 Minutes" and another one is hindi movie "Paan Singh Tomar".

     "Paan Singh Tomar" is an average watch. It is purely based on true story that happened in India. It's all about the youth who joined army to serve country. He will be loyal at what he does. Once Army's Physical trainer will punish Paan singh for coming late to the crew after holiday. Trainer will order Paan singh and couple of guys to run 10 rounds with their bag as a punishment for coming late. This guy will run hard and complete 10 runs within few minutes of time, where as, others struggle with their slow run. Trainer will be surprised at the way Paan singh finished and he order yet another 10 rounds. Army's Higher officials see his talent of Athleticism and He will be rewarded as the sports personality in Army. The Sports trainer in Army conducts the practice race of 5000 metres, where Paan singh finish 1st ahead of Sports trainers son in law. Hence sports trainer will request him to opt out of 5000 metres to gain good relationship with his son in law and express his concern with Paan singh by saying to opt out of 5000 metres and promise him for the national level athleticism. Paan Singh finishes top with a record as a National Champion and also finishes 1st in Asian meet. Later on he'll retire from his athletics after few years. After that, He'll feel unimpressed with local police who support the Goonda politics and denies Paan singh's legal complaint against the Bhawar singh, who will bluff him by denying the land. Thus, the different era of Paan Singh come to begin. He will rebel and fight against the police by making his gang strong in his region and later on he will become a threat to democracy and finally, he will be killed in police encounter at last. Over all, Film is 1 time watch. The script will bore you at few parts and more ever, it is a long movie of more than 2 hours. If you are fan of Irfan's acting, Go for it. He has given his best to the movie.
 


   "96 Minutes" is the dramatic genre movie, which is very well written and directed by Aimee Lagos. I havent heard the name of director before watching this movie. If you love dramatic thriller movies, then dont miss this movie. This movie uplifts you in the direction part. I'm really impressed with the direction, Mentioning it again and again because of my excitement about that. The director narrated story too well with a great introduction of the plot and how he link them at last is excellent. I can easily say that Director is the real hero of the movie. Even the characters are simply superb. Dont expect much fun, comedy in this movie. It's a serious movie, which is all about individuals emotions, sentiments, heart. The character of 'DRE' played by Evan Ross is extremely good. He's the man of moment in the movie with his sheer emotions and tears. He'll drive you away throughout the movie with his brilliant acting. All youngsters have done great job for their characters in the movie. Initially, They will show story of each individual and later on they will link up with each other and watch for them, where they will end up. If you are going with lots of fun, make sure that you will get distracted by movies sentiments. At the end of the movie, You will definitely find the reason for the success of star cast & their acting, that's none other than Director. Go for it, strongly recommended.


Yours lovingly,
