Fitoor: A Short Review

31108-Fitoor

Based on Charles Dickens’ ‘Great Expectations’, ‘Fitoor’ directed by Abhishek Kapoor (‘Rock On’, ‘Kai Po Che’) is visually stunning but drags. But then again, some may like the pace as it is dreamy. Having read the book (it was in the school syllabus), I must say this is certainly a good adaptation. But that doesn’t necessarily mean ‘Fitoor’ works for everyone. Kashmir is captured well like it was in ‘Haider’. There are some nice performances here.

Aditya Roy Kapoor is sincere; brings out the helplessness after being manipulated and heart-broken really well. Katrina Kaif does well too for a change. And there is Tabu. Brilliant as usual, ‘Fitoor’ is worth a watch for her Miss Havisham act itself.

About Abhirup Dhar

I don't watch movies... I live them! Let me introduce myself. Abhirup Dhar was born in Kolkata and is still being brought up in India. A banker by profession, he is filmy to the core and is passionate about reviewing movies and writing. He likes to live on his own… he likes to be blunt, sarcastic, famous, infamous, confident, over-confident, moody at times… he likes to be himself. He is imperfect because perfection is boring. His love for movies dates back to his childhood days when he studied in a boarding school. A three-month Winter Vacation every year… and he made sure he watched as many movies then. Parents thought it was a phase... he knew it was Passion and he knew it back then itself. The craziness to watch movies on the Big Screen began during the last two years of school when he literally bunked to town so that he could catch up with the new Hindi Movie releases. Some thought he was plain crazy. He confirmed it was Passion... yet again. The hard fact is that not always can you walk a path you are passionate about. You have expectations to fulfill and Life to be made. But Life gives you chances and you have to grab them. So... here is he... your friendly critic who will be giving you his Verdict every week so that you can decide which release is worth your moolah and which is not! See you at the Movies!
