Trapped is a brilliant piece of art.
I had read about the exceptional reviews the movie had got at MAMI fest and damn,i was not not disappointed. Survival dramas are not really a forte in Bollywood.But every once in a while we get such plot driven,tight scripts that it re instills my faith in Indian cinema.Though it is on the lines of Cast away and 127 hours,what makes this unique is this not a isolated location but right in the rush-hush of Mumbai!The protagonist Shaurya (Rajkummar) gets trapped in a high rise with no food,water,electricity and the movie effectively captures his despair,attempts to break loose and finally,embracing his fears.
Rajkummar is effortless and brilliant.Geetanjali is good in her short but pivotal role.Special shout out to the cinematographer and score by Aloknanda Dasgupta,its haunting! The script is the boss here,kudos to the writers to have guts to attempt something like this. Vikramaditya is top notch as usual making this engaging,nail biting movie.I did wish he captured the psychological side of Shaurya(Rajkummar) throughout his ordeal a bit more eloquently and gave it more screen time.The climax sequence could have been even more better.
Overall its a great movie,must watch :)
