Biopics are gaining popularity in Indian Cinema as it is representing true incidents of a person portrayed on the silver screen. Mary Kom does pay respect to the great sports person but disappoints as a movie.
Mary Kom tells the real life story of a five-time world champion who is the only Indian to qualify for 2012 Summer Olympics games.
Omung Kumar choose the right subject for his directorial debut but messes the film with loose screenplay and lousy direction. The movie begins with curfew scenes and coming-of-age drama which was forceful and had no right intention in place. Even the fight scenes were tacky. However, the second half picks up and drama sets rolling in with story begin to show light into the life of Mary Kom. If you would have read the autobiography of Mary Kom, the legendary boxer struggled to reach to the top but nothing much was shown in the film. Art direction is fine. Cinematography is outstanding. Dialogues are punching. Songs are disappointing. Priyanka Chopra gets into the character of Mary Kom. The supremely talented actress delivers a solid performance. She is mind blowing with her punches and fiery dialogues. Darshan Kumaar will surprise you in the supporting role.
Overall , Mary Kom pays tribute to real-life hero but disappoints as a film. Decent 2.75/5
