Kidnap Movie Review
Synopsis: On her 18th Birthday, Sonia Raina (Minissha Lamba), daughter of a New York based business tycoon, Vikrant Raina (Sanjay Dutt), has been kidnapped.
The kidnapper, a boy named Kabir (Imran Khan), will not talk to anyone except Vikrant. To save his daughter, Vikrant comes to India and performs tasks given by Kabir. The kidnapper is not after money. So what is it that he wants? Obviously, revenge. Kabir is an orphan boy. When he was eight years old, he sneaked into Vikrant’s bungalow to steal his car to drive his injured friend to the hospital.
Vikrant’s daughter, Sonia, saw Kabir and jumped into the car and told him to leave the car but he did not listen and drove the car and had an accident which almost killed Sonia. Vikrant then went to the police and told them that Kabir should be branded as a criminal, a kidnapper. Kabir was shocked. The police officer tried to reason with Vikrant but in his situation any father would have lost his sense. Now, Kabir is grown up and he will seek justice in his way.
Let’s start with the biggest disappointment; Kidnap Hindi movie has a regurgitated story. A fourteen year old boy ended up in jail because of an arrogant rich businessman. Now, the boy has grown young and he is going to make the man suffer the same way he did. Already, the Hindi movie going audience seen such story in Sanjay Dutt and John Abraham starrer Zinda(2006). So, there is nothing new.
The movie created lots of hype with its trailers and promotional songs. Imran Khan’s new haircut and his mean kidnapper role, Sanjay Dutt’s return on the big screen after a long time, last but not least, Minissha Lamba donning bikini and ultra modern clothes. All the elements were used well and a lot of hype and enthusiasm was created. Plus, you have a director like Sanjay Gadhvi who directed hit movies like Dhoom and Dhoom 2. From the very beginning, every one was expecting something serious and entertaining. Alas, Kidnap Hindi movie failed live upto the expectation.
