Review: Phoonk


Hmmm. What to say. when u know about Aag from RGV you know there cant be anything lower but somehow he manages to lower his standards every next movie. Not this time though Phoonk after Aag is something to cheer about for Ramu. Well there was Sarkar Raj and Contract in between though Sarkar Raj did manage to invite some audience owing to success of Sarkar Contract didnt leave a trace. But Phoonk is again a movie which is there to thrill away from melodrama and underworld stuff.Its in continuation of genre he made in Raat and Koun.This movie is to thrill but what RGV said about the movie I couldnt find even a trace of that. ( रामू काका होर्रो का तो नामोनिशान नई है किस होर्रो की बात कर रहे थे आप)There is no horror yes a bit of thrill. But if you have seen Exhorcist you might think its based on that but it isnt mmmm well this movie is about black magic, exhorcism about vodoo dolls so thats what Indian audience hasnt seen for a while. script is not powerful acting wise not many make a mark (except of course the little girl Ahsaas Channa(Raksha) who has already acted in KANK,
My friend Ganesha and Vaastushastra) but just for the change it gives it is bringing in nice audience. Even though it lacks a strong script it still is going to make RGV cheer. Rating wise I would give it 5 out of 10. It is not a Satya form RGV but for sure it is not pathetic.
