randeep hooda acted really well. aliya was good. the movie reminds me of Clint Eastwood movie the perfect world.

The movie is thought provoking and it deals with a social message. Lovely cinematography with a power to heal, to nurture and free you soul. It made me want to almost pack my bags and take off into the unknown, the joy of lying down beneath the stars, beside a river or even just driving through snow-capped mountains is enticing to say the least. Tie this with an intense relationship involving two individuals carrying wounds so deep that unconsciously draw them into each other's spheres of existence, changing their lives forever. A journey that takes them to the core of their being leaving an impact that is life –altering, forever. As is the case with such connections, happy ending are often rare and the movie kept it real. Well directed and well acted movie. 1000 times better than Gunday.

A Beautiful Film!

'Highway' finds Imtiaz Ali at his best. The talented storyteller delivers a beautiful, tragic film that left me spell-bound. Here's a film that celebrates love & tragedy, with skill. Also, Alia Bhatt pitches in a brilliant performance in the central role.

'Highway' Synopsis: Right before her wedding, a young woman finds herself abducted and held for ransom. As the initial days pass, she begins to develop a strange bond with her kidnapper.

'Highway' is amongst Imtiaz Ali's finest works. His Screenplay is wonderful. It creates a world of diverse characters who eventually develop a bond. The protagonist, Veera, played by a sterling Alia Bhatt, is a character who finds freedom while being kidnapped, while the character of Mahabir, played by Randeep Hooda, is in search for love & respect. It's the diversity between these two-characters that makes this road-movie so engaging. Ali's direction is excellent. He's in top-form! Anil Mehta'a Cinematography captures every frame magnificently. Editing is crisp. Music by A.R Rahman is enchanting.

Performance-Wise: Alia Bhatt triumphs with 'Highway'. She delivers a brilliant, sterling performance as the vibrant yet haunted protagonist. She's the life of the film. Randeep Hooda is ever-impressive. He enacts his part with amazing understanding. The supporting cast lends good support.

On the whole, 'Highway' is near-perfection. A marvelous motion-picture!

Writing/Directing for Money

A totally irresponsible storyline of the well known Stockholm syndrome where the kidnapped begins to identify with the kidnappers and even joins in their criminal activities. The kidnappers were even willing to shoot at innocent quick gas/shop convenience store customers and workers in this scenario. The sad part of this story is that the writer/director has no concept of what almost always happens in reality with this event. 95+% of the time the kidnapped is either dead or psychological traumatized or forever isolated from family. This film romanticized such an event. Even filming in beautiful landscapes to make it seem fairytale like. And, sadly film can be a motivator for some. Seems like this writer/director is in it for the money no matter the consequences.
