Blue Movie Reviews – Positive

A couple of reviews for Akshay Kumar’s Blue are out and both are extremely positive. One is a video review by Joginder Tuteja for Lehren TV (watch below) and other is a review by Taran Adarsh.

Taran in his review promises a never seen before experience “You haven’t watched something like this on the Hindi screen before. Never ever!” He is also all praise for the director Anthony D’Souza “It requires courage, will power, fortitude, vision and of course, the financial backing to accomplish a project of this magnitude. And debutante director Anthony D’Souza puts his skills and the financial resources to best use. Anthony D’Souza is a director to watch. This film has style as well as substance. Also, it requires courage and conviction to think out of the box and most importantly, execute the material with panache.”

The performances have come in for special praise too, especially Akshay who seems to have delivered his career best performance “Sanjay Dutt carries his part well, although he looks very well fed in some scenes. Akshay Kumar steals the show with a sterling performance. This would easily classify amongst his best works. Zayed Khan is highly competent. This, despite the fact that he’s sharing the screen space with two hugely experienced actors.”

Female stars Katrina Kaif (in a 8 minute long special appearance) and Lara Dutta have nothing much to do, yet they impress mostly with their beauty, charm and screen presence “Lara Dutta has never looked so good before. Though the story revolves around the guys, you can’t overlook Lara’s small but significant contribution to the film. Katrina Kaif looks gorgeous and performs exceedingly well. The feminine charm would send the youth in a frenzy.”

So what’s the final verdict? 4 on 5 stars.. “On the whole, BLUE has style as well as substance. The film has everything going in its favour, right from its incredible star cast to the superb action scenes to the hitherto unseen marine life to the tremendous hype and hoopla.”

Time for Akshay Kumar fans and the industry to rejoice we think. First credible positive reviews for a Akshay Kumar movie in a long long time, add to it, great advance booking and a Holiday weekend.. A box office blockbuster? Lets wait and watch.

We also have the video review by Joginder Tuteja, he too is all praise for the movie and rates it 4 on 5. Some points

  • 5 key action and stunt sequences, that keep the pace up for the film
  • Bike Sequences are great.
  • Underwater sequences are breath-taking.
  • Blue has an international feel to it, compares it to James Bond movies!
  • Coming to the negatives, Joginder criticizes the storyline.

  • watch a movie on gut instinct and not on reviews. A movie may cater to various taste of audiences. some may like it and the others may not. I guess review writing has become an online hobby with many of us. We just write what we feel and try to dampen the spirit of movie goers. If you want to watch a movie go ahead and watch it, irrespective of how good/bad the reviews are. I know the so called best movie reviews by writers of various blogs/forums have proven wrong on too many occassions. For eg. Wanted. It had no story, very predictable, sense less movie, but good acting by Salman and the rest of the cast, caught on with many audiences and did exceedingly well in many cinemas, though not that good in multiplexes. But then who cares, if the movie is declared a HIT. Right?? So just enjoy the festive mood and watch whichever movie you want to, coz at the end of the day: its your money, no one should tell you where and how to spend it. You’ve earned it, you spend it. Simple.

  • i want to express sum more grief towards this idiotic movie
    can any1 justify the 4* rating given to the movie ?????? I think nobody can do it
    4*means a muv which is close to perfect but BLUE is far from being good
    if this is the criteria for giving ratings then muvies like wednesday black friday will get 10 on 5 stars
    it is sad to see that even the big reviewers are not being honest……

  • taran adarsh never rips any movie apart ..good or bad he gets tons of money to report positivrly ..i will go with your views solely

  • Sorry for all who say -ve for this movie. just thing that yar this type of movie you never see before yar agar tum kisi ki kossis ko apericiate nahi kay skte to jhute b mut kaho. yar this film is good honestly once again action kumar prove only and only he is the action who done every thing.

    Blue is a exilent movie i and i hope every people of india never see in bollywood before. sir dont go to critics go and watch total paisa wasol hai.main unko bata du ki bhai ye he film hol”od main 500 crore ki hoti.

  • i completely agree with zeitgeist. dont rely completely on reviews. u may like the muv wich others didnt.

  • @ punter: but 20-25 min underwater sequence is much less for the film to be called an underwater adventure yaar. atleast 45 min should have been underwater sequence.

  • film has declared superhit after its Ist day opening……… huge advance booking heavy crowd makes muvi superhit…..
    akshay is really king of bollywood………. muvi me akshay ka naaam hona hi kafi hai film ko big opening dilwane ke liye………
    akki is no.1
    akshay rockssssssssssssssssssssssss

  • looooooooooooooooooooooooook all guys…… yahan comment dena bahut aasaaan hai practically cinema halls me jaakar dekho blue ki tickets nhi mil rahi hain isliye logo ko mai or mrs khanna or all the best dekhni padd rahi hai……….. hahahahahahaaha

    AKSHAY IS THE BEST… AS WE SAID BEFORE…
    NO one khan star can stand in front of AKKI BHAI…………..
    & one more thing about AKSHAY……
    AKSHAY FIGHTS LIKE A LION………
    shahrukh fights like a MOUSE……
    aamir fights like a dog……..
    etc etc…….
    all gay haters or shahrukh’s fans can do bad comments here for BLUE
    we never mind
    lol
    hahahahahah :)

  • I guess this festive season the two other movies “All the best” and “Main aur Mrs. Khanna”, will hugely benefit coz of “Blue”. With such rushes in theatres, advance booking, housefull boards, no tickets etc. etc., whatever you may call it. People go to cinemas to watch “Blue”, but since they dont manage to get tickets, they have no other option but to watch the other new releases rather than goin back home disappointed. Thus the success of “Blue”, will also rub on the other movies. Good for the producers, distributors and movieplexes.

  • the reviews from joginder & taran adarsh giving 4 out of 5 stars are actually fooling people to go out & watch this silly movie with no story line, actors are actually over reacting to be stylish which is totally unneccesary, Akshay has lost his charm when he entered into action movies again & actually over acting in many scenes so that he can be better than Sanjay dutt… lara dutta always showing of her skin wearing bikiny in many scenes which was completely not required…….

  • as usual all we have to say is singh is kinng. he is the best and he is the today’surperstar. this film is the biggest hit in the bollywood industry. akshay is the best. the khans time is over.

  • punter you now todays box office report blue is 22/ gon dwon and all set to flop go and watch box office report then give comment ok you add one more flop to akki s series this is contineusly 6th flop

  • ehsan khan tum pagal ho blue ko good film kehraheho tumne dekhi hai film agar dekhi hai to nahi kehte maine dekhe hai mujhe bilkul pasand nahi aee tum khalat nahe bolo auran ka time bach jayega please

  • tawny

    it seems you dont have anything positive to say about anybody whenever you make a comment.

    you probably dont have a life and very miserbale, lonely and have no friends. hence your frustration. get a life.

  • nikki u better mind ur language. akshay is now the bollywood king and dont be jealous for he has overtaken the khans. also to let u know blue has broken all the records in the bollywood industry.

  • TO BEJUL,

    WHY DONT U GO AND SUCK SRK’S DICK YOU ASS HOE, IF YOU DONT HAVE ANYTHING GOOD TO SAY ABOUT THIS MOVIE THEN DONT SAY ANYTHING. I WISH I KNEW YOUR STUPID ASS, I WOULD OF BEAT YOUR ASS YOU FAG SRK BITCH!

  • BLUE MOVIE SUCKS. THIS REVIEW IS REALLY AFTER WATCHING BLUE. SO MUCH TOLD & SHOWN & PUBLICIESED ABOUT THIS MOVIE & THAT WAS BCOZ TO MAKE PUBLICITY AND THE MOVIE DOSEN’T HAVE ANY THING BESIDES IDIOTIC DIALOUGES, STORY, SOME ACTORS ARE JUST WASTE IN THE MOVIE. GROW UP & DO NOT DO SUCH A FAKE PUBLICITY TO LOOT PEOPLES MONEY. MAKE MONEY FROM MOVIES LIKE TARE ZAMEEN PAR, DON 2, GHAJNI, BUT DO NOT CHEAT AUDIENCE. FOR ME THIS IS 5TH FLOP IN A ROW OF AKSHAY KUMAR. SANJAY DUTT WAS BETTER IN ALL THE BEST RATHER THAN BLUE

  • 1992 : Khiladi _ I AGREE
    1993 : Waqt Humara Hai (Avarage) – AT LEAST I HAVE NOT WATCHED
    1994 : Yeh Dil Lagi , Mohra , Main Khiladi Tu Anari, Suhag – 2ND & 3RD WATCHED
    1995 : Sabse Bada Khiladi – I AGREE
    1996 : Tu Chor Main Sipahi, Khiladion ka Khiladi – I DON’T AGREE
    1997 : Dil to Pagal Hai – GROWUP THAT WAS A CAMEO ROLE
    2000 : Hera Pheri , Dhadkan – I AGREE
    2001 : Ajnabi, Ek Rishta (Avarage) Awara Pagal Deewana ( Avarage) – I AGREE
    2002 : Ankhien – NOT A HIT
    2003 : Andaaz – I REALLY SLEPT DURING WATCHING THIS MOVIE
    2004 : Mujhse Shadi Karogi , Aitraaz, Khaki – I AGREE
    2005 : Waqt, Garam Masala – I AGREE
    2006 : Phir Hera Pheri , Bhagam Bhag –1ST OK BUT 2ND WAS HIT ONLY FOR NAUMAN
    2007 : Namaste London , Hayy Babyy , Bhulbhulaiyan , Welcome – ALL HITS
    2008 : Singh is Kinng – I HAVE ASKED MANY PEOPLE IN MUMBAI BUT THEY HAVE NOT UNDERSTOOD THE LANGUAGE IN THE MOVIE WHICH IS PUNJABI & THE MOVIE WAS REALLY RUBISH & TOTALLY NONSENSE
    2009 : Kambakhat Ishq , Blue – 1ST HIT FOR YOU NAUMAN BUT REALLY SPEAKING IT WAS THE BIGGEST SHIT MOVIE OF BOLLYWOOD & BLUE REVIEW IS GIVEN BELOW.

    AK IS NEVER NEAR TO SRK, SALMAN OR AAMIR. NAUMAN R U WORKING FOR AK & IF NOT PLEASE DO NOT GIVE SUCH A SICK NUMBERING OF HITS.

    BLUE MOVIE CAN BE MADE HIT ONLY AFTER GIVING FAKE REVIEW BY EXPERTS OR SHOWING BIGGEST HIT OF AK IN 2009 ON POSTERS ON THEATER OR TELEVISION.

    TAKE A LIVE REVIEW OF EACH PEOPLE COMING OUT OF ANY ONE THEATER & SHOW IT, YOU WILL DELETE MANY MOVIES NAME AFTER THAT.

    GROW UP NAUMAN.

  • I think mamk is better then blue but unfortunetly blue is rocking in theater…& mamk is poor…its realy sad news for good movies…salman khan unluky in diwaly…

  • Blue Is Something Different. But its worth watching at the Cinema.

    Watch it at the cinema if you want to rate it.. dont go for pdvd rip on the net.

    Its a high octane action fiesta…. not seen in previous bollywood movies.

    hough storyline is not that good, indians should be proude that their cinema is moving forward technically and that also by such production budgets.

    Its true many indian producers dont like to invest their money cause it costs very very much to produce action movies like hollywood. That’s why bollywood has always been lower than hollywood in terms of technology.

    Now with movies like Blue, bollywood can be proud to move along technically with hollywood.
    I’m sure indians dont want to watch typical bollywood love stories and comedies all their life.

    BLUE IS DIFFERENT AND ADVENTURE ACTION PACKED.

    ACTION: 9/10
    UNDERWATER SCENES: 9.5/10
    PERFORMANCE: 9/10 [AKSHAY, LARA & ZAYED ONLY]
    STORYLINE: 6/10

    TOTAL RATING: 8.5/10 approximately.

  • Chirag :
    if u dont like any movie or if u didnt watch it realy doesnt mean that movie is flop my reseach is 100 % real dil to pagal hai i agree role was very small but it wasnt guest apperience , Bhagam Bhag was realy good movie and above avg eben in some circuts it was hit movie collected 24 cr in india and more then 10 in overseas. Kambaght ishq collected 55 cr in india and 15 cr in overseas total 70 cr.
    and after two weeks on 31 oct we will see that where BLUE is standing .
    so leave it till 31 oct every thing, and i said before on 9 oct that dont fight we will see every thing on 16 oct now we have to wait till 31 oct when blue will finish its 2 weeks.
    but it is conferm that MAMK is biggest flop of the year .

  • u r all so silly nd stuped that u wrotes bad comments about srk and akki because they r best friend together nd every one doing a great job so y u fighting for srk and akshay.

    according to me both are a superstars.
    nd other shahrukh khan is the king of bollywood nd no one cant replace his place.

    and ofcourse akshay kumar is the superstar and khiladi too.
    i respect them because they are senior.

    even my favorite is shahrukh khan but i never writing some bad comments about other actors like akshay kumar and so on.

    so plz be quite do not write any bad comments abt bollywood actors.

    regards

  • Blue movie is hell of a good movie. Kudos to all the actors and their efforts. Man it was worth it!!!!. Great movie to watch.Akshay was ACES!!!!! you’re my favorite no matter what!!!! I am sure BLUE will hit the box office!!!!
