However, the movie <strong>wasn&#8217;t that satisfying.<\/strong> Read the complete <strong>Traffic Movie Review<\/strong> right here.<\/p>\n<h2>About\u00a0Traffic<\/h2>\n<p>Traffic is a <strong>Thriller Drama<\/strong> movie based on the <strong>2011 Malayalam<\/strong> movie of the same name directed by the same director, <strong>Late Rajesh Pillai.<\/strong> The movie is produced by <strong>Fox Star\u00a0Studios<\/strong> and <strong>EndemolShine India Productions.<\/strong> It features <strong>Manoj Bajpayee, Jimmy Sheirgill, Kittu Gidwani, Sachin Khedekar, Divya Dutta, Parambrata Chatterjee<\/strong> and others.<\/p>\n<h2>Plot<\/h2>\n<p>Rehan is a young boy from <strong>Mumbai<\/strong> who gets severely injured in a road accident and is <strong>about to die.<\/strong> His parents receive a call from <strong>Pune,<\/strong> where an <strong>actor&#8217;s daughter<\/strong> is admitted and is in dire need of a <strong>heart transplant.<\/strong> After an initial disagreement, Rehan&#8217;s parents <strong>agree<\/strong> for the transplant, but the heart cannot be transported by air due to <strong>low visibility.<\/strong> So the <strong>road route<\/strong> is taken resort of. The traffic of Mumbai is at peak. The joint commissioner of Traffic Police takes charge of the mission and a <strong>traffic constable, Godbole<\/strong> takes the chance as one to wipe off the stains of <strong>accepting a bribe<\/strong> from his collar. The car sets out from Mumbai to Pune with Godbole, Rehan&#8217;s friend and a doctor in it. Later, it is revealed that one of them has <strong>attempted a murder<\/strong> and is afraid the police is after him.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at the movie trailer right here.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content-asset videofit\"><iframe title=\"Traffic | Official Trailer | Manoj Bajpayee | Jimmy Sheirgill | Divya Dutta\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IGXw0NMwcS8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>Story, Screenplay, and Dialogues<\/h2>\n<p>The story is <strong>brilliant.<\/strong> Based on true events and a superhit movie, this movie is successful at capturing the <strong>feel of the story.<\/strong> The screenplay is <strong>decent<\/strong> and nothing can be complained, if not praised. However, it is the <strong>dialogues<\/strong> that are <strong>repetitive and irritating<\/strong> at points due to the same. Also, there are <strong>too many characters<\/strong> in the movie for a <strong>1.5-hour thriller.<\/strong> This makes <strong>less screen space<\/strong> for each character which means <strong>flatter characters.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Performances<\/h2>\n<p>All the actors give their best to the movie, however, it is just <strong>Manoj Bajpayee, Sachin Khedekar<\/strong> and <strong>Divya Dutta<\/strong> that manage to leave an impression till the movie gets over. Maybe it is the weak writing that other characters including that played by <strong>Jimmy Sheirgill<\/strong> <strong>do not appeal much<\/strong> to the audience. Also, the supporting cast is full of weak performances.<\/p>\n<h2>Music<\/h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"\/traffic-music-review\/\">music<\/a> of Traffic is <strong>just decent<\/strong> and there is <strong>nothing extraordinary<\/strong> to the music except &#8216;<strong>Keh Bhi De<\/strong>&#8216; and &#8216;<strong>Kuchh Der<\/strong>&#8216;. However, the music seems perfect for the mood of the music and in the movie, wins at it.<\/p>\n<h2>Direction<\/h2>\n<p>The direction is <strong>weak,<\/strong> to say the least. Many aspects of the movie <strong>looked unnecessary<\/strong> and much more parts of the movie felt <strong>repetitive<\/strong> and you might actually say that you just saw that stuff. However, it somehow is successful in capturing the <strong>feel of the movie<\/strong> which is a good sign.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>One <strong>can watch<\/strong> this movie, but waiting for the <strong>Television broadcast<\/strong> would be a better option if you ask us. Apart from awesome acting and a lot of drama, there is not much to the movie.
