Shivaay (2016)
2/10
Worst movie of 2016!
1 November 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Watch this movie at your own risk, chances are it might does some serious brain damage and by that I mean killing brain cells and by that I mean the sheer stupidity of the movie might rub off on you.

-Let me say this right off the bat that this movie is half-copy of Liam Neeson's Taken, but of course with Bollywood rendition which already sets the bar quite low. Through out the movie, you are gonna ask yourself whether Shivaay (Ajay Devgan) has super powers or is he like one of those south movies gimmick where one guy can easily take on an army of bad guys single handedly and I think it is latter because there is a scene where Ajay Devgan gets shot by a Gatling Gun from a Helicopter and still running faster than Usian Bolt like there's no tomorrow and acting all fine and then gets stabbed twice by the main antagonist, but still somehow manage to fight him on equal terms. I am still surprise that this movie has such a high rating despite the fact that the conclusion of the fight was a load of BS (SPOILERS AHEAD):-Towards the end of the movie both fell down from the cliff because they were obviously fighting at the edge, but for some reason that exact same deep cliff transformed into a slope cliff while they were falling and rolling because according to laws of physics it is impossible to roll while falling on a vertical cliff, right RIGHT? and they still somehow manage to survive {OBVIOUS PLOT ARMOR} and after Shivaay killed the antagonist he somehow teleported back to the top of the bridge from where he fell down in the first place, HOW? Are you telling me that guy who has been shot and stabbed somehow manage to climb that cliff with bare hands? That is ridiculous even for South Movies and I am not making this up, it literally happened like this.(SPOILERS END)

-Let's talk about the story now. The first hour of the movie pretty much establish this that Shivaay is the master of hill climbing and he has no equal, he is pretty much a god when it comes to Mountains. Okay, I get it but what in the hell is the point of this when it almost has no relationship with the rest of the movie. I mean literally more than half of the movie is dumb investigation and chasing after the suppose kidnappers. If the movie is trying to show us that because of the time he spent in the mountains is the reason why he is so supernaturally strong, then why not make a movie where Shivaay is some ex-govt. official? That would save your location budget and would establish a strong plot material.

-The only reason why I gave 2 rating because some of the CGI effects were damn fine like the one where the photo of Shivaay's daughter transforms into ash and disappears into thin air from Shivaay's hand, but that is it. One scene is not gonna save this un-holy god of an abomination.
