The shooting style in a lot of scenes and even the songs with spot lights on actors gives the feel of the 1980s cinema. We cannot recommend Rush.

First, the good news – Rush has an interesting plot and great detailing, the latter unusual in Bollywood. Such detailing – irregularly placed photos in Samar (Hashmi) and girlfriend Ahana’s (Ghatge) home, favourite coffee mugs from which media tycoon-types sip their whisky, a T-shirt cheekily promising ‘Endless Vacation’ landing a billionaire in jail – add heft to this tale.

Rush is a half baked, uninspiring flick that evokes no response. The below average movie deserves a 1.5* from my desk. Watch it ‘only’ if you are an Emraan Hashmi fan. But in my point of view this reporter definitely needed a better script to hit the Home Run.

On the whole, RUSH looks like a rushed job. It could’ve been an interesting take on ambition and aspiration, but it comes across as a half-baked product.

RUSH had the potential to be a decent flick but too many gaping holes in the script let the plot down at crucial stages.

You leave Rush feeling moderately satisfied. It’s a predictable but well executed script that keeps you engrossed quite a bit. Granted the climax is a let down and there are flaws in the screenplay, but the film remains something that is decent one-time watch. Watch it for the performances and the thought-provoking epilogue.
