Yuvvraaj as the name suggests with the extra V's and A's is a totally pointless production made just for profit and nothing else...Its a half-hearted,boring,predictable movie with an outdated plot straight from the 80's about 3 brothers and how they are divided over property...A childish attempt with sentimentality thrown about here and there without either impact or effect...Songs add to the lethargic pace and make it sound very mediocre...Katrina Kaif is a showpiece who does not know how to act and maybe has been casted just because she is a lucky charm for the producers and directors or maybe Salman insisted because all her movies have been doing well of late..Zayed Khan has totally overacted and shouts too much..Boman Irani looks like a clown straight out of the sets of Love Story 2050...Anil Kapoor's role is poorly written and we dont know whether to sympathize with him or laugh at him...Salman Khan acts the same way in any role given to him whatsoever it may be...Veteran Gulzar's lyrics are meaningless and it seems he was just forced to do this movie's lyrics...Supporting villains look like bad characters from amateur comic books...Finally Subhash Ghai Sir plz. retire from movies and take rest at Whistling Woods...He is becoming worse with every new movie...Climax was abrupt...
What I liked about the movie:
Nothing...Only music and cinematography is good but not great...
What I didn't like about the movie:
Everything..Overacting by Salman and Zayed.. acting by Katrina...Slow,boring,predictable,outdated and stretched out plot and storyline...Silly,stupid,half-hearted and abrupt ending...Terrible direction...
