M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story Review

Sushant Singh Rajpoot is impressive as Dhoni.He got the body language and a cricket down pat.His expressions makes the character's frustration palpable as we see him trapped in a job of raliway ticket collector.Graduating to bigger things and a terrific performance by the protagonist showing a refusal to be swept away by small successes is praiseworthy.What dissapoints at a time on hindsight is that,movie appears like just a calender of events from Dhoni's life.This happened,that happened,he fell in love with this girl that girl, never a logical character study.Infact director Neeraj Pandey only stucked to reverential portrayal of the character without touching the controversies that did happen with Dhoni. It trudges down to a predictable and boring stuff in its second half but that does not mean the movie does not work. By pushing the right buttons and winding up the movie with Dhoni's terrific performance in world cup, your chest will swell with pride as you leave the theatre:)
