12th fail- THE BEST MOVIE OF 2023, period!
This is a perfect example of how to take a movie with a strong and inspiring storyline based on true events. It portrays the crowd who has perseverance and never die attitude in pursuing civil services examination (UPSC) exams to eventually become IAS or IPS.
Vidhu Vinod Chopra is a master story teller, and he sure knows to have the right blend of dialogue delivery with sensibility and delicacy.
The "HUG" definition is shown as real and you can feel it.
Screenplay is terrific with a touch of brilliance.
Vikrant Massey's acting is a benchmark and he embodies it with full of life. His emotions, innocence, anger and happiness can be truly felt as he takes us through his tough journey to the pinnacle.
Medha Shankar provides strong support for Vikrant. Their purest love, chemistry and just being there for one another when it's really needed is worth to withhold in your memory for a long time.
Anant Joshi is the real friend one can wish for in their lifetime. Aisa dost sabko milna chahiye.
Climax is multiple times clap worthy.
10x respect for all those who pursued UPSC exams, tried multiple times and never lost hope. 100x respect for those who cleared the interview and serving for the government as the key administrators, and taking the country forward.
This movie is a big inspiration for kids and future generation. It teaches them and us that life can be restarted multiple times and can bounce back stronger.
12th FAIL is a BIG PASS with distinction (Rank 1, 100/100, GPA 4.0).
