Ek Tha Tiger:Dull & Boring Rating : 1 / 5  Banner : Yash Raj Films Cast : Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Girish Karnad, Ranvir Shorey, Roshan Seth and Others Music : Sajid-Wajid, Sohail Cinematographer : Aseem Mishra Producer: Aditya Chopra Director: Kabir Khan Released Date: August 15, 2012

A dull tale the story begins with Tiger (Salman) who is a RAW agent working in various international missions. One such mission takes him to UK and here he chances upon Zoya (katrina) and in no time falls in love with her. After some time, even Zoya also falls in love with Tiger but she doesn’t know his real identity. The story takes a turn when Tiger discovers the background of Zoya and takes a strong decision. What happens after that forms the rest of the story.   The director has come up with an average storyline and while the presentation was ok, the narrative was not that good.  The dialogues were alright, the script was average and the screenplay was weak. Background score was effective and two songs are the highlight. Cinematography was top notch. Editing could have been better. Costumes were stylish and trendy while the art department was colorful. Salman Khan comes with a mild performance and he didn’t have much to show and during emotional scenes he was mute. Katrina Kaif looks extremely beautiful and she carries her role with elan. Roshan Seth was neat. Girish Karnad was usual. Ranvir Shorey was regular. Given the fact that the film has Salman Khan as the hero, the expectations are very high on this movie and many would be understanding this as a perfect action treat. But few minutes into the film and you will realize it is not so. There are action sequences but the focus is more on the drama and romance. The first half is boring, there is also an interesting interval bang and the second half is just okay with some action sequences. Overall, the film will reach a safe zone due to its brand value but the quality of this project in terms of content is bad.It is not worth a watch.
