What's the Story?

In CREW, three flight attendants, Geeta (Tabu), Divya (Kriti Sanon), and Jasmine (Kareena Kapoor Khan), are exhausted from the strain caused by an unending delay in receiving their salaries. When they decide to take control of the situation, they uncover a web of deceit that leads them to becoming involved in a gold smuggling operation.

Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say : Not yet rated
Kids say : Not yet rated

This Indian Hindi-language comedy, directed by Rajesh Krishnan, manages to take themes such as gold smuggling and fraud, and uses them for great comedic effect. Crew has a powerful and charismatic cast, bringing together Tabu, Khan, and Sanon in its lead roles. While the movie remains predictable from the get-go, it does well in keeping the viewer interested with its powerful music remixes and a quirky heist storyline. Refusing to take itself too seriously, this lighthearted movie passes the time and will have audiences chuckling out loud on more than one occasion.

Talk to Your Kids About ...

  • Families can talk about the three main characters in Crew and their behavior. Were Geeta, Divya, and Jasmine justified in what they did? Would you describe them as positive role models? Why, or why not?

  • Talk about how the movie presented friendship. How did Geeta, Divya, and Jasmine's friendship grow and evolve over the course of the film?

  • Discuss the film's violence. Did the comedic tone make it feel less impactful? If so, why? Does exposure to violent media desensitize kids to violence?

  • How did the film represent drinking and smoking? What are some of the real-life consequences of these acts?
