    In this question, the review of a movie has been given in jumbled form marked P, Q, R and S.
    Arrange the jumbled parts, between A and B, to give the correct sequence of the review.
    A: The protagonist of Gambler is driven by anger and anguish to kidnap a powerful politician's eight-year-old son.
    With that daring act, the man hopes to force the world to sit up and take notice of his plight, precipitated by a bridge collapse in the heart of suburban Chennai.
    P:  Gambler, directed by S. Bhatt, makes the right noises about the state of the nation and its people owing to the machinations of avaricious and insensitive politicians and crony contractors. However, the methods that the film uses in order to do so are rather fanciful, if not outright harebrained.
    Q: Aryaan, at the top of his game as an actor, goes all out to inject some energy into the narrative. Despite Aryaan's controlled star turn he moves from sorrow to sarcasm, and from shock to scorn, with effortless ease - the film makes rather heavy weather of its progress towards a bizarre climax in a Chennai slum. If only the games that the aggrieved character plays with the handpicked CBI sleuth Anand Rai had greater frisson. Gambler might have been an infinitely more riveting piece of cinema.
    R: It is, at best, a tepid, occasionally intriguing thriller. It fails to create the required tension, suspense or anticipation as the intrepid crusader leads the cops and their feckless bosses on a wild goose chase across southern India. Gambler is obviously all about rustling up the latter scenario, but it does not deliver the expected thrills consistently enough to count as a humdinger.
    S: Two hours and a bit later, he achieves his goal: the minister and his cohorts are on their knees. But the bitter battle of attrition that he wages against a battery of opponents remains strangely un-engaging despite a superlative performance from the redoubtable Aryaan.
    B: But all said and done, 'Gambler' might be worth the price of a movie hall ticket solely For Aryaan's flawless one-man show.
