Good fun and surprisingly nails the sweetness too. '102 Not Out' is a film that I had a pleasant time with. Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor are terrific in this release, with those two making for an entertaining double act. Jimit Trivedi and Vijay Raaz are solid too, albeit in much more minor roles. I wouldn't say anything comedically made me laugh, though the humour is still one of the film's main positives. It, in fact, holds its own when it comes to the more sombre bits, which are put together almost perfectly. I thought it would stray into cringe/cheese territory at some point, but this flick never does... it actually comes across impressively well. The music is also pretty good, I particularly enjoyed "Bachche Ki Jaan" - even though it does sound out of place here and there, yet again finds a way to work. "Badumbaaa" makes for a decent outro piece, shame about the (minor, in how often its seen - editor had a conscience?) use of blackface for the music video though - not that it was ever fine, but in 2018? Come on... Overall, this did indeed surprise me. Hearty.
