Selfiee Movie Review
The conflict point in the film is quite unique and has been set nicely in the present scenario. Akshay, as usual, is superb in the role of a brash superstar. The way he shows his brash and frustrating side in the film looks quite good. But the actor who takes the cake is Emraan Hashmi. He as a big fan of the star who later turns against him has done a good job. His role has emotions, good comedy, and witty dialogues.
The comedy angle in the film is quite good. The scenes between both the stars have been written so well that makes the viewing interesting. The BGM and production values of the film look quite good. The situational comedy generated from Akshay’s anger issues is showcased well.
There are a few confrontation scenes between two actors that have been stretched a bit too much. The film starts off on a slow note and takes a lot of time to reach the actual conflict point. Also, the family stories of both the stars in the film are not that engaging.
Overall, Selfiee is a film that has an interesting premise and some good funny moments. Akshay Kumar is superb in the film and the engaging narration also helps the viewing. But the predictable story and some overstretched scenes come up like speed break breakers. If you ignore this aspect, this film ends as a decent watch.
