Analysis

Paper Boy Movie Review, Rating, Story, Cast and Crew

The first half of Paper Boy starts on a stupendous note and the narration looks extremely fresh and interesting. The audience expect an intriguing love story but soon the film turns preachy and a boring feast. The songs have been shot well and the performances take the film to the next level. The interval episodes make the film interesting. The first half of Paper Boy lives up the expectations though it has dull moments.

The second half of Paper Boy is filled with over dose of emotion and preachy dialogues. Several episodes look repeated and fail to make much impact. The last half an hour of Paper Boy looks dragged and the climax looks melodramatic. On the whole, the second half of Paper Boy is a huge misfire and falls short of expectations.

Performance

Santosh Shobhan looks stunning apt as a paper boy and middle class guy. He performed well as Ravi and he is here to stay. Riya Suman has an interesting role and she performed well in the assigned role. She did with perfection and looks lovable. All the other actors look apt and performed well in the assigned roles.

Paper Boy has no interesting script but it is the treatment which makes the film interesting and engaging during the first half. But the overdose of drama and the melodrama makes the second half fall flat. The music and the background score have been decent and elevated the film well. The cinematography work has been excellent and so are the production values. Debutant director fails to make Paper Boy an impressive product.
