Crook Twisted Tale: Too many characters, too little coherence

IIPM: Indian Institute of Planning and Management

Mohit Suri tries to cash in on some contemporary developments Crook: Emraan Hashmi(the racist attacks on Indians in Australia) by constructing a story around a reckless and lawless Jay (Emraan Hashmi) who is sent Down Under by Joseph (Gulshan Grover), his guardian. Introducing a couple of love stories into the track, and weaving in some unnecessarily complicated twists, he soon loses his handle on the film’s narrative.

Too many intertwining threads - Suraj loves Suhani (Neha Sharma) but wants to marry Nicole in hopes of getting a permanent residency but Suhani’s sister Sheena has had an affair with Russel who is Nicole’s brother and is now orchestrating the racial attacks (!!!) – weave a tale that cannot decide whether to focus on the love story or the larger message. The performances from the new comers are average and Hashmi doesn’t leave much of an impact either. As a result, the message and the medium both are wasted.
