MOVIE REVIEW



Fast Forward narrates the story of two best partners Rishi (Rehan) and Sunny (Akshay Kapoor). Both are extraordinary dancers. The fun loving Sunny finds dancing a great way to express himself and is in love with Rishi's sister Jeel (Bhavna). (There is an accidentally very funny proposal scene between later in the film). Sunny realizes Jeel has deliberately kept herself away from her biggest passion – dancing. He goes on to revive it but it leads to the revealing of Rishi's dark past. The finale sets up in a dancing competition called Fast Forward (hence the title) amongst many top dancing groups including Sunny and Rishi's.

Fast Forward is the kind of a movie which appears thrilling on paper what with all the right ingredients thrown in which many urban youngsters can relate to. But it's a failure when performed on screen. Neither the script nor the direction nor acting and most importantly neither the music has any fire to keep you interested throughout this 2 hours plus movie. Debutante director Zaigham Ali Sayed also squeezes in an unnecessary mafia angle to the movie in an attempt to give it a thriller edge. But alas, even that doesn't leave you wanting for more!

Music by Akbar Sami is a mega let down, however the dances choreographed by Jhalak Dikhla Ja winner Sonia Jaffer, Vishnu Deva and Seema Desai are the only remarkable thing of this enterprise. The movie features a heady mix of dance sequences (hip hop, Salsa, Rumba, Samba) also add to that B Boying stunts that are packed with high energy.

Rehan Khan attempts to be an angry young man only to end up looking a wannabe Sunny Deol. However, he is good in dancing. Akshay Kapoor is okay and impresses with his dancing talents. Bhavna Pani and Sabina complement the boys well with their dancing skills. Mahesh Manjrekar and Vinod Khanna leave their mark as always. Siddhant Karnick needs to look up his acting skills.

Fast Forward is a totally unremarkable experience. Go only if you are a crazy dance freak and can bear bad acting and ordinary direction.
