The
much
awaited
Bollywood
movie
Roy
starring
Arjun
Rampal,
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
Jacqueline
Fernandez
finally
hits
the
theatres
and
here
we
are
with
the
first-hand
review
of
the
movie
Roy.
Directed
by
debutant
director
Vikramjit
Singh,
Roy
happens
to
be
a
romantic
thriller
with
a
mix
of
action,
suspense
and
romance,
which
certainly
is
a
rare
thing
in
Bollywood.
PLOT:
To
talk
about
the
plot
of
the
movie
Roy,
Arjun
Rampal
(Kabir
Grewal)
plays
the
role
of
a
successful
film-maker,
while
Ranbir
Kapoor
(Roy)
is
seen
as
a
smart
mysterious
thief
and
gorgeous
Jacqueline
Fernandez
(Ayesha)
interestingly
has
double
roles
in
the
film,
the
other
role
being
of
an
actress
named
Tia.
While
Ranbir
Kapoor
earns
money
by
robbery
and
he
remains
untraceable
by
the
police,
Arjun
Rampal
makes
a
lot
of
money
by
making
films
on
the
life
of
Roy,
all
of
which
become
super-hits
at
the
Box
Office.
Jacqueline
Fernandez
also
appears
as
a
film-maker
and
gets
mingled
with
Arjun
Rampal
who
carries
an
image
of
a
play-boy.
Interestingly,
Arjun
Rampal's
story
apparently
proceeds
with
Ranbir
Kapoor
or,
so
to
say,
Roy's
story
as
Jacqueline
Fernandez
says,
"A
person
can
be
known
by
the
story
he
creates
and
words
can
lie
but
not
stories." Sounds
complicated?
Well,
to
understand
this
complication,
you
have
to
watch
the
movie.
Performance:
Director
Vikramjit
Singh
attempted
to
create
something
unorthodox
with
the
movie
Roy
with
a
superb
star-cast,
of
course.
Talking
about
the
performance,
Arjun
Rampal
dons
the
role
of
a
proud,
arrogant
and
successful
film-maker
pretty
well
with
an
attitude.
Ranbir
Kapoor
as
a
charming
and
smart
thief
keeps
the
mystery
in
his
character
intact
all
through
the
film,
though
his
presence
in
the
film
is
comparatively
short.
Jacqueline
Fernandez,
apart
from
adding
glamour
quotient
to
the
film
Roy,
also
has
enough
scope
to
prove
her
prowess
as
an
actress
and
the
diva
does
considerable
justice
to
her
role.
Other
than
Arjun,
Ranbir
and
Jacqueline,
Anupam
Kher
(as
Kabir's
father)
and
Shibani
Dandekar
(Zoya)
also
have
justified
their
roles.

Movie
Playlist
As
a
director,
Vikramjit
Singh
has
tried
to
add
all
the
necessary
ingredients
in
the
movie
Roy
that
are
required
to
have
an
entertaining
Bollywood
film
but
the
film's
slow
pace
might
waste
his
effort.
Apart
from
the
strong
star-cast,
Roy
offers
you
with
some
eye-catching
locations
and
soothing
music.
Loopholes:
However,
the
movie
Roy
is
not
devoid
of
some
loopholes.
Some
of
the
transitions
are
little
too
confusing
while
certain
scenes
appear
to
be
unnecessarily
forced,
which
makes
the
147-minute-long
movie
somewhat
dragged
and
slow.
Verdict:
Roy
ends
up
being
all
fizzled
with
its
confusing
execution
and
zero
thrills
to
keep
your
eyes
glued
to
the
screen.
In
a
nut-shell,
this
flick
can
be
a
decent
watch
only
for
the
love
quotient
and
for
those
who
like
an
interesting
script
but
don't
expect
much
thrill.
