Directed by Telugu Director Gopichand Malineni, JAAT is the latest action entertainer starring Sunny Deol in the lead role. The film’s teaser and trailer received good response, and it arrived in theaters worldwide today. Let’s check how the movie ended up.
Story:
For years, Ranatunga (Randeep Hooda) and his brother Somulu (Viineet Kumar Singh) have terrorized villages. Even his wife Bharathi (Regina Cassandra) and mother are complicit in his reign of fear. The story brings in Sunny Deol, withholding his character’s identity for most of the film. The rest of the film is all about the confrontation between the Hero and Villain.
Performances:
Sunny Deol matches the title role nicely and creates a good effect. He brings value to the film through his screen presence alone. Randeep Hooda embodies a terrifying antagonist. Viineet Kumar Singh, Regina Cassandra and Saiyammi Kher are fine, while Jagapathi Babu, Ramya Krishnan, Ravi Shankar and Murali Sharma have little to do.
Analysis:
From the beginning, Gopichand Malineni’s JAAT goes all out. It favors being loud instead of subtle. The first half’s screenplay is impressively detailed. The way a minor incident leads the Hero to take on the villain’s gang, the backstory of the villain come effectively. The lead-up to the interval episode is excellent, and the initial encounter between Hero and Villain is fantastic.
The second half struggles with too many plot points, losing its earlier momentum. Well-intentioned social messages, references from the real incidents, and women empowerment ideas overwhelm the screenplay. The climax is decent.
Positives:
- First Half’s Screenplay
- Hero – Villain First Meet Episode
- Fights
Negatives:
- Overboard Sentiment Scenes
- Second Half Lags
- Excessive Violence
JAAT Movie Review and Verdict:
Sunny Deol’s JAAT is an out-and-out loud action ride. Fast pacing and action sequences help the film, while predictability and excessive sentimentality/violence hurt it. However, it remains enjoyable for mass movie lovers.
