I liked the movie but I didn't like the ending very much. When Emran died I was soo sad. Overall the movie is good and the ending is very sad and cute with her and her son. Very good movie, it's a movie that if you have time you should watch it!

Jannat is the story of a man caught in a quagmire of crime and consumerism as he struggles to find heaven on earth.
Arjun is a reckless young man with an obsession for making money at card games. A chance meeting with a girl in a mall, Zoya gives him the reasons he was looking for to move out of his ordinary life. He steps up from playing small-time card games to becoming a bookie.
Stuck in a triangle of sorts between the woman he loves and his addiction to make a quick buck, Arjun moves on from being a bookie to a runner for the mafia. He steps into the world of match fixing. Arjun switches on the limelight to bigger, better, faster, more, until his dizzying rise attracts the attention of the police.
Arjun has to now choose between the love of his life, Zoya, and this new found success and power. As Arjun struggles to choose between the two, the Don offers the forbidden apple of limitless wealth in exchange of his soul and draws him into his core entourage of money spinners.
How far will the horizon of reality stretch as Arjun and Zoya tread a fine, fast-blurring line between right and wrong to find the heaven they have been looking for?

Hashmi is in full form in this movie,,he hits sixes with his dilouge delivery,,fantastic music,,entertaining 1st half,,little faded 2nd half which is compensated by the hard- hitting climax.

Jannat – as usual the title is as catchy as any other Mahesh Bhatt movie and the movie is also gripping as well. This is a story of a young man, who does not believe much in the legal traditions of earning money thru honesty; he rather fills his pocket with petty gambling and similar stuffs. Until one day when he discovers that his sixth sense to predict the cricket match results can earn him much more. Meanwhile he falls in love with a girl and to impress her by getting expensive gifts, he does credit card crimes, etc.

Eventually he turns from the path of being a bookie to a match fixer. What happens next is anybody’s guess. Even after having such a common plot the movie will never let u go out. The movie as any typical Emraan Hashmi movie has wonderful songs, and the story maintains that pace thru out. One cannot see any major fall out other then the missing explanation for his talent to predict results. The overall experience is good and keeps you glued to the chair till the end.

I m  huge cricket fan & was equally shocked when in 1998 I heard big cricket names involved in throwing matches . Names who were worshipped like God . Suprisingly no Hindi movie has ever tried to make a film out of this issue , which is one every cricket loving Indian ( which are quite a few in number ) could relate to . so its no surprise that it is the controversial Bahtts who have made a film Jannat on it . Bhatts  are the boldest producers of the all  as they have always invested in newcomers & have produced some of the best talents – Anurag Basu , Kangana Ranaut , Kunal khemu , Mohit Suri , etc that exist in films . they also follow the formula with a twist added to it  & make movies for a larger audience rather than only for multiplexes . Jaannat is exactly like that .

           Story of a compulsive liar & a gambler who wants fast money at any cost . he has a sixth sense in cricket which knows what will happen & Joins the betting bandwagon as a result . he makes  a lot of money , but he wants more which he gets with the help of  a don who encourages him to lure cricketers & throw matches . He does all this for his love . Yes the film is weaved through a love story which is quite normal & formulaic the man in the wrong path , the lady trying to rectify him – we have seen it hundred times . but what makes it different is CRICKET & BETTING SAGA . the bold dialuges help , so do some interesting pinpoints at some cricketers & cricketing tales including the black episode of Woolmer killing . this is what makes Jannat a superb & interesting watch . the climax is another highpoint as had the movie finished in any other way it would have doomed . Kunal deshmukh deserves full praise for his writing & execution & is someone to watch out for  .

       The songs are superb too, something which is expected from the Bhatts & so are its placement in the movie as it never interferes in the narrative . The supporting cast esp Samir kocchar is brilliant . the new girl needs to sharpen up her acting but is beautiful & can show some cleavage . but what holds Jannat in even its average moments in Emraan Hashmi who has given a superb performance in a film completely on his shoulders . he is restrained & natural . not once is their an inch of overacting . you feel for the character because of his convincing performance . cinematography is good & neat something

           On the whole Jannat is  a superb watch & makes u think wether cricket is really still a gentle mans game

Not sooooooooooo Heavenly

          Hey you al the Filmy Fanatics………UD’s back. and guess what???/.Back with BANG, BANG, ………..Two Movie Reviews at the same time……Not sooooo Heavenly…(Jannnat).., MINUS 123….(123)…….So sit back and enjoy the most carefully and critically written Reviews….

Jannat……..Hmmm in 3 words I would describe it as “ NOT SOOOOO HEAVENLY” ….why?......well the reasons are as follows….

Story  : The simplest formula of making it in Bollywood anytime is combining Cricket with Movies.The Basic idea of the movie was very strong in context of Bookie Problems as none in the industry has shown this much on the celluloid before. But I think they could have shown a bit more than this as the subject is too sensitive as it has made loose us many kore great cricketers in the recent past… So..all in all a good story to start with..

Direction:  Kunal Deshmukh’s attempt of Handling  already a good story with the actors with almost no knowledge of Acting was very brave and quite successful too. He has not let down Mr. Mahesh Bhatt for sure. Although he failed in making the Debutant Actress

Sonal Chauhan act.. Well but it is acceptable considering her Debut movie.

Cast Performance :  Emraaan Hashmi stole the show with one of his best performances ever till date. Yet he seemed very weak in his dialogue delivery considering the dialogues he was offered. Sonal as I said failed to make an impact. Samir and Vishal played their parts efficiently … Javed also showed some promise. All in all , they all performed okay.

Music : For Me the USP of the movie was it’s Magnificent Music. Pritam Rocks….Kamran Ahmed’S legendry song “Judaaai” just makes it amply clear that he truly deserves a place in Bollywood. Pritam reminded of his Melodious Music in Gangster.. “Zara si dil me jagah”.. and “Haan tu hai” were among the other ear cathchers.

Beautifully composed and very well picturised songs.  

Technicals : Screenplay seemed very weak in tendoms. Cinemotagraphy oF Manoj Soni matched the class of international class. Sound Rerecording was a bit immature. Background Score was okay as only one or two tunes were running all the times…other factors were pretty okay.

   

                      So, the marketing strategy of Mahesh Bhatt to make a movie in a budget wchich falls insufficieant if you sign a star like SRK or AAMIR Khan and make it really cheap for distributers and hence collect enough money to make it average or a hit in this MULTIPLEX culture in India. For me, The Jannat was not So Heavenly…

UD…
