'Saat Uchakkey' boasts an ensemble cast so strong, its barely surprising how splendidly they invest themselves into their respective parts. Sadly, the only strong merit of this comic caper are its performances, as the film is just an okay watch!
'Saat Uchakkey' Synopsis: A team of good-for-nothing people team up to steal treasure from an eccentric old man, but face opposition in the form of a cop.
'Saat Uchakkey' is a fine idea, but the execution is underwhelming. The first-hour, to begin with, barely leaves a mark. Its in the second-hour, when things fire up & the laughs come in. The comic touches work well in the second-hour, despite profanity, but the first-hour, is weak from every angle.
The Writing needed to be more persuasive. The Dialogue are realistic & at times, laugh-out-loud funny. Sanjeev Sharma's Direction is decent. Cinematography & Editing are standard.
Performance-Wise: The Actors are uniformly excellent! Vijay Raaz takes the lead with a terrific act. The supremely talented actor takes center stage & comes up with the film's funniest moments. Manoj Bajpayee is first-rate, as always. Kay Kay Menon shines. Aditi Sharma is fantastic & proves her potential, once again. Anupam Kher is hilarious in a cameo. Annu Kapoor is perfectly over-the-top. Aparshakti Khurrana supports very well.
On the whole, 'Saat Uchakkey' is a mixed bag.
