Nagesh Kukunoor is back with a lackluster movie in the form of a thriller this time, titled 8 X 10 Tasveer. The promos are seemed really interesting. But…but… BUT, unfortunately, it is not up to the mark! Now if you compare it to any current thrillers, 13B totally rocked and also managed to have some surprise elements. But in this one, it just goes on and on except for the ending.
‘8×10 Tasveer’ is about Jai [Akshay Kumar], who possesses supernatural powers. Jai is of Indian origin who works as a forest ranger in Canada. His life is shattered by a loss of an important person in his life - his father [Benjamin Gilani]. This personal tragedy leads him to use his unique supernatural powers to unravel the mystery.
Akshay Kumar and a few others have acted reasonably well. Ayesha Takia is just eye candy. The story is all over the place and the murder’s not justified well enough making you think “What the…!” So yeah, I wish Nagesh worked a little harder on the script and the loopholes.
Watch out for the opening song and the background music and how brilliantly its shot. But otherwise, it’s ok even if you don’t watch it for the thrill of it. It is an average film.
