A Brilliant Conflict
Sarita Rafferty
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Deepak Tijori was mostly a sidekick in Hindi films but as a director his films are even worseFOX could've been a good thriller but ends up a routine Hindi film The promos were interesting but the film ends up being a typical Hindi film with a long introduction for Arjun Rampal to some chase scenes The climax is the worst partDirection is awful Music is okayArjun Rampal has improved and seems confident on screen and acts well Sunny too in a subtle yet short role does well and thankfully no shouts Udita is okay and so are the others

What an awful movie. There was a lot of bad acting in it. The movie is very slow. You only get to hear about the book "Fix the fox", but you don't get top see something about the murders, what could have made the movie interesting to watch.Camera work is bad and not always consistent. A scene where Arjun looses himself the camera which is focusing on him is messy. The shot next with a girl is steady and then the third shot with Arjun is also steady. This doesn't work.When Sunny Deol is a very careful man, why has he a hidden room in his house with all evidence pointing against himself? Isn't that stupid?I didn't like "A murder of crows" and this movie isn't even better.

Based on an awesome movie - murder of crows (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133985/).As I started watching the movie, it kept coming to my mind that there is an awesome movie/novel previously made and after 1 hour of search on Google finally recalled the movie name - murder of crows. I think this is a great film coming out of bollywood, but the ending could have been much better.Great story but I think the creators were thinking about the Hollywood movie and creating a bollywood movie. I am sure if this was converted to a more desi flick, it would have attracted much larger audience. It had a mixed flavor of both bollywood and Hollywood. Though I am not able to put finger on what exactly.I am sure people will enjoy this movie - even though you have seen the Hollywood version. :)

Deepak Tijori has earlier been associated with movies inspired from the Western flicks like "Fareb", "Oops" &"Khamosh". With "Fox" he continues trying his luck in the thriller genre and once again fails to hit the nail rightly. Bollywood has delivered very few worth mentioning thrillers in the past and "Fox" is clearly not an exception to this fact.In a crime thriller revolving around a famous criminal lawyer (Arjun Rampal) and a tough investigation police officer (Sunny Deol), the viewer expects to be taken for a tricky ride with new twists and turns coming every few minutes into the movie. But the latest offering from Deepak moves at a snail pace without any unexpected revelations to surprise the viewer. The movie starts off well, where a famous criminal lawyer who is known for saving murderers from the court goes through a heart transformation. However, where the first sequence of the movie looks fresh, interesting and inviting, the remaining part of it disappoints completely.Without going into the suspense part of the plot, I would only like to state that the major point which goes against this movie, is its poorly written, absurd climax. As you are shown the real person responsible for the entire blame game, you just drop your head down. It's simply unimaginable to believe the reasons why Arjun Rampal was chosen as a target by the main culprit. So whatever good, the movie had in store in its favor, gets simply ruined by the badly conceived climax and you just don't want to think about it anymore walking out of the hall.Going at par with the movie, apart from Arjun alone, everyone else is trying to deliver more than he/she is capable of. Udita Goswami does a repeat act, similar to her previous movies. May be she had some problems with the makers, since she is simply taken out of the script towards the climax. Sagarika Ghatge is just OK, but was this the role she was waiting for after "Chakk De"? Sunny Deol looks like doing a favor to the producers while playing his part. He again comes only a few minutes before the interval doing a routine act close to his "Khel". Only Arjun Rampal looks well fitted in his role and has performed well (but he surely could have done without using that strange wig on his head).Monty Sharma's music is only there to fill the space with few below average songs. Camera-work & Background score serves the purpose fine. Director, Deepak Tijori does show an improvement from his previous works but I hope this is not an inspired version of an English movie as his last movie "Khamosh". He manages to present some well shot sequences in the first half but it's the climax which makes the movie simply below average. To sum up, I wish the movie had a complete different culmination.
