THE PLOT –

Well, we didn’t actually have much to do, so we just went in for some purist time-pass. The story isn’t much of an eye-opener, but Blue somehow just clings on and makes you just about stand the whole tale.

The story revolves around marine-lines entrepreneur, his stand-out employee and the employee’s brother. While the men make merry and hunt for treasure, you are left wondering if this is how all shipwrecks are actually discovered!

The plot is a little devoid of attention to detail and therefore leaves you with more to be expected – in fact, the movie ends with a suggestive sequel punch

THE CAST –

Akshay Kumar is yet again looking the part. He easily remains the mainstay of the movie with some reasonable performances from Zayed Khan, Lara Dutta & Sanjay Dutt.

Rahul Dev returns after a long hiatus – but doesn’t quite fit the bill.

Katrina Kaif ends up being a total waste and a showpiece character to state the least.

THE MUSIC –

The music by A.R.Rehman is nothing short of pathetic.

In fact, barring the ‘Chiggy Wiggy’ number, you can hardly even classify a song in the hummable category.

A very poor and forgettable album.

THE VERDICT –

Blue is an attempt at bringing to life a good storyline into mainstream Indian cinema but where it falls short is the screenplay and execution.

If you have nothing else to see and badly need a movie, you might just add on to the queue (if any).

THE SCORE –

5.00 / 10.00
