Review of 'Icche' (bengali movie)

Ferrari ki sawaari is a 'Feel Good' genre movie. Its an well made movie with decent performances from everybody but still the movie fails to make any impact and you come out feeling of watching a very average movie from a great team. Commercially inspite of being made on a shoe string budget the movie still might find it difficult to make money as it may not gather enough audiences and good word of mouth, important elements for commercial success since the movie doesn't have the starcast or music to garner good value out of music rights or satellite rights...

The problem with the movie seemed to be lack of solid emotional moments in the screenplay that is extremely necessary in this genre of movies, something the movie lacked because of a very average script....Inspite of having extremely capable actors like 'Sharman Joshi' & 'Boman Iraani' the lack of emotional connect is due to the scripts weakness....

The story revolves around a 'son, dad and grandad' and their wish to see their kid play at Lords....An interesting storyidea which could have been developed with lots of twists and turns, drama and emotion, but the scriptwriter chose to keep it simple and in the fallout lost the plot...specially in the 2nd half the movie completely fails to engage the audience...

On the high points the 'Sharman Joshi' played his part well, Boman Irani once again showed his brilliance as an actor even in such an ordinary script...Some of his moments specially his cricketing competition with his grandson in the night was quite emotional and touching....The kid 'ritwik sahore' was brilliant in his role specially his body language , he seemed to be completely into his character and the kid surely has shown brilliance....

Inspite of having all the elements in the right place but one (i.e. the script) it doesn't quite look like that director 'Rajesh Mapuskar' will have a 'Ferrari Ki Sawaari'


This weekend its not recommended.....
