Shah Rukh Khan adopts a casual stance for the 'Shekhar' character and takes the Tamil accent for granted. Sometmes, he says 'Rumba', at other times 'Ramba' for 'Romba'. And when the moment of crisis arrives, his accent disappears.
The logic of Ra One is twisted, if not flawed. One cannot fathom how the computer program starts thinking for itself even during the developmental phase. At the same time, this uniquely complicated game is so basic, that even a school kid can develop it from the scratch? (referring to the last part of the movie)
The writing is shoddy and instead of focusing on the game and its skillful precision to track down Lucifer, the three writers of the movie just focus on making it a Shah Rukh Khan spectacle. How did Arjun Rampal (Ra One) get the passport to travel to India to search for G.One? Now that is a colossal error.
There are a lot of paradoxical elements in the film, on one hand you call it a children's film and then you have Kareena Kapoor writing a thesis on profanity, the child making repeated condom jokes, low b~ow humor, gay scenes and Kareena Kapoor boob press scene. Then they introduce a Karva-chauth scene; talk about Indianizing a super-hero movie! In short, the movie does not stick to its plot
Who is a superhero? He is the one who connects with the audience, who saves everyone in the world and their dog. But here, the whole thing is about G.One trying to save his family from Ra One. Who gives a damn? The audience does not feel any sense of urgency or motivation, they are just passive to the turn of events. The villain in a superhero movie is the one who knows the weakness of the superhero and uses it to his advantage We do not see that in Ra One.
The superhero also does not have special power and all Ra One and G One do is throw laser beams at each other, as a form of combat. Quite amateurish, must say.
The start and the end of a movie means a lot when it comes to the impact, more so in a superhero film. See the best superhero films like Spiderman, Terminator series or Iron Man. Here the starting scene just rode on star power of Priyanka Chopra and Sanjay Dutt, it was intentionally comical but many were not laughing. The climax was no great shakes either. Compare that to Robot's noisy but jaw dropping climax.
I watched 30 minutes of it maybe and it was still a waste of my time. Total Faltoo movie.
Let's hope Don2 is better than this!
