MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting

Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

jimmy-anirudh There are fewer movies which takes you to a journey and you are completely transformed at the end like you fill you are there with protagonist.... One of the best acting by a leading actress

westsideschl A totally irresponsible storyline of the well known Stockholm syndrome where the kidnapped begins to identify with the kidnappers and even joins in their criminal activities. The kidnappers were even willing to shoot at innocent quick gas/shop convenience store customers and workers in this scenario. The sad part of this story is that the writer/director has no concept of what almost always happens in reality with this event. 95+% of the time the kidnapped is either dead or psychological traumatized or forever isolated from family. This film romanticized such an event. Even filming in beautiful landscapes to make it seem fairytale like. And, sadly film can be a motivator for some. Seems like this writer/director is in it for the money no matter the consequences.

inforaza Highway is a good honest offbeat movie by Imtiaz Ali, about a kidnapped girl.PROS of Highway1 - Melodious AR Rahman compositions 2 - Fine acting by Alia Bhat (her cuteness adds to the sensitivity of her character and how can I forget the climax in which she takes out all her stifled frustration on her family members) 3 - Fine acting by Randeep Hooda 4 - Scenes of Mother Nature in all its glory (lush green field, majestic snow-capped mountains of Himalaya and the tumbling roar of the river flowing out of the mountain) 5 - The Stockholm Syndrome (displayed by Alia)CONS of Highway1 - The 'dehati' accent of Randeep is unintelligible 2 - The shooting down of Randeep was gross (How can police shoot down someone without any warning and provocation?) 3 - The flashbacks of Randeep life is unnecessary (it does not contribute to the gravity of the situation or plot) 4 - The teary acting of Randeep outside his new house while Alia is cooking food, looks "forced" (it should have been done softly and slowly so that you can connect with his state-of-mind)5 - The Stockholm Syndrome is shown in a sudden, unrealistic manner which just did not appeal at all Imtiaz Ali is one of the few directors of meaningful, thoughtful films we've in India. Even in the case of a commercial film like Jab We Meet, he handled it with sincerity and maturity (as opposed to the melodrama and cacophany that Rohit Shetty indulges in).

Namra Syed Hussain Highway- 2014 Director: Imtiaz Ali Watching Imtiaz Ali's movie is like reading a book. Every emotion is expressed in such a way that you remain in a long hangover even days after watching his creation & the major credit goes to cinematographer as well .. So Mahabir- Randeep Hooda has always been a very fine actor. It feels like he didn't wash his face and hair just to develop that character and situation in the movie. The thing which touched Veera's (Alia Bhatt) heart was that she was not secure at her home but even though she was kidnapped by a gangster like Mahabir and was still secure with him. Hats off to Imtiaz Ali for the beautiful and a reality based story. not to forget, the songs and music was AWESOME.
