Youngistaan
Critic reviews and ratings
-
...politics need not be a drab colourless vocation. It can be a bastion for the young. And it can be a great deal of fun!
-
It's a light hearted film that's not to be taken too seriously and that's the only way one can enjoy this.
-
Afzal's 'Youngistaan' at the core is an interesting idea, far-fetched, but refreshing. The love-story develops tenderly, but the political backdrop and ensuing drama is not crafted with clarity. The story suffers from uninspiring dialogues, with a stretched climax.
-
...has an interesting premise, a mature act by Jackky Bhagnani and importantly, the message it conveys is just right. The writing could've been sharper, but having said that, this movie is worthy of a watch.
-
...thanks to a good script, well-paced screenplay and author-backed performances from appropriately cast actors, Youngistaan makes itself a watchable fare.
-
Watch it for the endearing Jackky Bhagnani and the inimitable Farouque Sheikh.
-
...this one just about passes muster.
-
Not bad at all given the almost implausible premise and the lead.
-
While the film has a very interesting premise, it is totally diluted by lazy scriptwriting and sketchy direction.
-
I hope young India's vision is not as shallow, superficial or short-sighted.
-
There was potential here, but it's wasted.
-
The film, despite its efforts, becomes muddled, and dull.
-
...a skewered immature tale that caters to the lowest common denominator of hope.
-
The problem is that Youngistaan has no teeth.
-
The film lacks the punch and power essential for it to be consistently engaging.
-
The film seems topical and could have cut across audiences given the current election scenario but lacks the gravitas of a political drama, which particularly associates itself with the highest seat of power.
-
Despite all this going for it, Youngistaan still ends up feeling flat and dull for three reasons: inconsistent writing, inconsistent direction and a weak lead actor.
-
...makes claims like Modi, implements policies like Rahul and has a persistent cough like Kejriwal, and I certainly wouldn’t vote for it.
-
...sets a new standard of ridiculous.
