Quickgun Murugun Movie Review

Well, when Aamir Khan recommends a movie, it has to be good watch. Watch we did, so did we like the movie? Hell yeah, we definitely did. For a change, a movie doesn’t actually require you to leave your brain at home, and for a change the dialogues are intelligent in a comedy! Read on 

Quickgun Murugun Review

Why Quickgun Murugun works

  • The film is very innovative and different, almost comic book like.
  • The dialogues are funny yet very intelligent.
  • Its the director’s tribute to the over-the-top era of the 70s and 80s. Its basically an extended version of Shahrukh Khan’s Rajnikant-like act in Om Shanti Om or Dhoni’s pepsi ad.
  • Not for a moment does the movie bore. Funny characters, vibrant colors, terrific performances, blood, gore et al the film ensures your hooked to your seats throughout.
  • Director Shashanka Ghosh’s direction is spot on.
  • Dr Rajendra Prasad is perfect for the role. Can’t imagine any Bollywood actor pulling it off with such brilliance.
  • Nasser as Rice Plate Reddy, the villiant, is fantastic.
  • Rambha does well too, nice to see her back. Remember her act with Salman Khan in Judwa?
  • The rest including Vinay Pathak, Ranvir Shorey in short roles do well.
  • Background music plays a key role in enhancing the QUickgun experience.

What didn’t quite work for Quickgun Murugun

  • Excessive use of Tamil language, although with subtitles.. Doesn’t work too well.
  • The film is more violent than expected. There is a good amount of blood and gore in this.

Overall, Quickgun Murugun is a must-watch. Watch it, to experience something different, something so delicious, that you can’t help but go for a second serving. I would watch it again!

Rating: ★★★★☆

  • Indicine team fantastic review again, Quick Gun Murugun is by far the best movie of the year after Kammenay, Hats off to Dr.Rajendra Prasad, What a gr8 and legendary actor he is, I have watched many of his Telugu movies even though I am a Marathi but I stay in Hyederabad, Excellent movie, My rating 9 out of 10 :-)

  • In nepal,No hall is releasing this movie….I really need to wait for Dvd of it…….Good review..I have found lots positive review of this movie.Surely i m going to watch this movie

  • Dr. Rajendra prasad is a very big star down south . A very talented actor known for his comic timing so i think i ll go for this movie !!!! thanks for your review.

  • I saw the short trailer and just wanted to vomit.. is this really a good movie?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Was it really recommended by Aamir Khan?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If millions saw it and would praise this kind of movies and I get a free ticket to watch it.. I won’t.. just pathetic trailer.. sounds like those kachra dishong dishong movie of 70’s!!

  • Indicine Team: now I have a doubt! that Aamir Khan’s movies aren’t directed by him but by someone else!! e.g. movies like Taare Zamine Par.. if he likes these kind of movie (quickgun..) and he thinks it a good movie.. then I dont think that Aamir Khan even directed a movie or he’s capable of doing some good quality movies like TZP or Lagaan, Mangal Pandey.. can’t believe that he did them or cooperated in directing them specially TZP.. just can’t believe it!!
