| | | Hijack Movie Review | | | | Of late, debut-making directors are coming up with stories that defy the stereotype. Kunal Shivdasani is one of those.
HIJACK talks of terrorists and terrorism, but there's an undercurrent of emotions running all through. What limits can a father cross to save his child, is one question that Kunal Shivdasani raises in HIJACK.
The terrorism aspect isn't new, what with every third Hindi film having its take on terrorism. But Kunal's execution of the material places HIJACK in the watchable category. The high-octane drama inside the aircraft as also outside the aircraft [in the climax] makes a difference. HIJACK is very Hollywoodish in terms of execution, but Hindustani at heart.
However, Kunal could've done with a tighter script. Also, Shiney's character could've been less heroic, especially when he fights the gun-holding terrorists single-handedly.
All said and done, HIJACK is an engrossing experience. A riveting thriller!
