Suddenly-hot Minissha Lamba in various dress avatars is dancing to lyrics like baby bindaas, khaas, main ek raaz and the like.

The music, editing and cinematography are ordinary. Suggestion: close your eyes, don’t breathe and insist on a shower if someone kidnaps you to this.

When you carry the baggage of super-successful films such as Dhoom and Dhoom 2, the expectations from your subsequent outing is bound to be gargantuan.

See Kidnap only if, after Jaane Tu ya Jaane Na, you need to get another Imran fix. Or if you want a good laugh!

Anupama Chopra, NDTV

This thriller film may be low on Dhoom this time but young Imran Khan more than makes up for the sluggish pace and the mediocre script.

Why? You may ask. The answer is quite obvious to those moviegoers who detested that thing called DHOOM 2. However, considering its box office success and shockingly strong presence at the award ceremonies, there still seems to be a lot of explaining to do

Or if you are a Sanjay Gadhvi fan; or an Imran Khan fan; or a Sanjay Dutt fan; or if you just like cleavage... actually when I think of it like that, this movie might be a huge hit.

Kidnap has created a buzz for several reasons. Imraan Khan is back after his highly successful debut Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na. The promos of Kidnap were sleek and stylish, Minissha Lamba in her all new sexy avatar and of course the bikini. A Sanjay Dutt movie

It is definitely an entertaining movie with action packed and all the commercial elements. Worth watching once.

The movie is shot well, the camera work is good – there are some very well executed scenes, but when you have a flawed recipe in your hands then no matter what the chef does his dish will end up disappointing the hungry audience. Random song placement, be

Kidnap is a puzzle mismatched. It takes the backseat when it comes to a logical story but manages to get through as a good time-pass.

Let''s introspect. Where does it falter? The boy versus man concept holds tremendous scope and writer Shibani Bathija could''ve come up with an enthralling revenge drama. But Kidnap fumbles, stumbles and falls on its face. The cat-n-mouse game is hardly e

Bala, who had earlier directed 'Sivaputrudu', had produced 'Mayavi' in Tamil with his protege Singapuli wielding the megaphone. The film proved a big hit and it was dubbed into Telugu by Kandepi Satyanarayana Rao and SV Rao on the banner of Sri Balaji Movies.
