Rockstar (2011) 

IMDB-7.4
RJG rating-55


Jordan, an aspiring musician, wants to get his heart broken to be a true rockstar..

Starring-Ranbir Kapoor, Nargis Fakhri
Director-Imtiaz Ali

Rockstar was one of the most awaited movies of 2011,but on its release it failed to live up to its hype...

The main problem (among the many) is the wasted female lead...Nargis Fakhri single handedly ruins the movie..She has made one of the worst debuts for a female artist..
But luckily Ranbir comes to the rescue ,and barely saves the movie with his acting...

Story is another weak point of the movie..Its uneven and unbelievable at times..What kind of logic did Imitiaz use for the plot?..
Music by AR Rahman is surprisingly disappointing..Other than the Sadda Haq song,the rest are below average, and it drags the movie a bit..
Direction is average too..Known for his light hearted movies,Imitiaz's attempt to make a serious love story fails..The movie also confuses the audience by the skips the movie makes to past and present,but due to the lack of interest in the movie itself,most wont mind this at all..If not for Ranbeer,the movie would have fall flat on its face with its story and wasted performance of Nargis..
Not a must watch..But fans of Ranbir will enjoy the movie...
